TOPIC: Hope For The Backslidden

MEMORISE: “I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.” – Hosea 14:4 (KJV)

READ: Jeremiah 3:22-23 (KJV)

22 Return, ye backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we come unto thee; for thou art the Lord our God.

23 Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills, and from the multitude of mountains: truly in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 21-23

Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE

After Jesus was crucified, Peter thought that it was the end of His ministry on the earth. Therefore, in John 21:3, he told his colleagues, “You know what, if I can’t go forward, at least I can return to where I am coming from. Brethren, I am going back to fishing,” and they decided to follow him. However, while he was fishing, the Lord met him and restored him. The same Peter, who thought that the end had come in his walk with Christ, began to heal the sick with his shadow, as we see in Acts 5:15:

“Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.”

If you have failed God at one time or the other, or you feel that God cannot use you again because of the sins you have committed, let me tell you, if you repent and forsake your old ways, God can still use you mightily. He specialises in using the most unlikely people in powerful measures.

Beloved, don’t be like Samson, who disappointed God. He deviated from the path that God laid out for him and started engaging in sin. Eventually, the enemy captured him, and he lost the connection he had with God. However, when he prayed to the One whose mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23), that connection was restored. Not only was the connection restored, Samson also received the power he had lost. In one day, he killed more Philistines than he had killed in his entire life. God had apparently forgiven and restored Samson, but he never forgave himself, and so, he asked to die along with his enemies (Judges 16:17-30). If you are backslidden, the Lord can still restore you if you will allow Him to. Go back to Him in prayers, start studying your Bible, and begin to walk with Him in obedience in fellowship with other Christians. You will see that as you take one step towards Him, He will take 99 steps towards you.

I have seen many backsliders completely restored by God. In fact, you will never know that they were once backslidden. When they genuinely repented, God took charge of their lives and used them powerfully. Beloved, if you have strayed from God’s path, He can do the same for you if you repent genuinely and come back to Him.

KEY POINT

God is able to completely restore a backslidden believer if he or she repents.

HYMN 17 – Praise My Soul The King Of Heaven

1 Praise, my soul, the King of heaven;
to his feet your tribute bring.
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
evermore his praises sing.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise the everlasting King!

2 Praise him for his grace and favor
to his people in distress.
Praise him, still the same as ever,
slow to chide, and swift to bless.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Glorious in his faithfulness!

3 Fatherlike he tends and spares us;
well our feeble frame he knows.
In his hand he gently bears us,
rescues us from all our foes.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Widely yet his mercy flows!

4 Angels, help us to adore him;
you behold him face to face.
Sun and moon, bow down before him,
dwellers all in time and space.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace!

Open Heaven For Today 2025 Tuesday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – The Power Of Testimonies

Click HERE for the Previous Open Heaven Devotional

TOPIC: The Power Of Testimonies

MEMORISE: “That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.” – Psalm 26:7 (KJV)

READ: Psalm 145:1-12 (KJV)

1 I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.

2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

4 One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.

5 I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.

6 And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.

7 They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.

8 The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.

9 The Lord is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

10 All thy works shall praise thee, O Lord; and thy saints shall bless thee.

11 They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;

12 To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 17-20

Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE

Romans 10:17 says that faith comes by hearing God’s word. Revelation 12:11 also tells us that testimonies are powerful weapons that can defeat the devil. This is why I keep sharing testimonies. I have discovered that many people don’t often remember the Bible passages I quote during my sermons, but they remember the testimonies. When you look back at the things the Lord has done, you become confident that you can overcome any obstruction that may come your way.

In 1 Samuel 17:1-51, when David confronted Goliath, his testimonies gave him the assurance that he would win. He said, “The God who delivered me from the lion and the bear will deal with Goliath.” God has kept you alive until now, and He will keep you unto the end, in Jesus’ name.

Bartimaeus, in Mark 10:46-52, was a blind man who was begging by the roadside. He heard that Jesus was passing by and began to cry for help. How did he know that Jesus can open blind eyes? I’m sure it was because he had heard testimonies of miracles that Jesus had performed. So, when he heard that the same Jesus was passing by, he knew that his miracle had come.

Several years ago, I shared a testimony about how my wife delivered a baby naturally after she had delivered three of our children through Caesarean Sections. The doctor had told us, “No more babies,” and we agreed. Thereafter, we became born again, and one day, I read the Bible passage that says, “…with God nothing shall be impossible,” and I believed it. My wife and I agreed that we would have another child, and this time, we would not involve any doctor. The baby was born safely by God’s grace. I shared the testimony for the first time in Kaduna, a state in Northern Nigeria, as I preached a message titled, ‘10 steps to your miracle’ (The original sermon note I used can be accessed in the Open Heavens International Centre). A woman who attended the programme wrote all the steps in her notebook. She had undergone two Caesarean Sections and was pregnant with her third baby. When she was about to give birth, she took the notebook and began to follow the steps. While she was still acting on the steps, the baby came.

Beloved, Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). If you have heard someone share a testimony concerning whatever situation you are going through, have faith that your miracle will also come.

ACTION POINT

List at least five things God has done for you and share your testimonies with those around you.

HYMN 26 – There Shall Be Showers Of Blessings

1 There shall be showers of blessing:
This is the promise of love;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Savior above.

Refrain:
Showers of blessing,
Showers of blessing we need:
Mercy-drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.

2 There shall be showers of blessing,
Precious reviving again;
Over the hills and the valleys,
Sound of abundance of rain. [Refrain]

3 There shall be showers of blessing:
Send them upon us, O Lord;
Grant to us now a refreshing,
Come and now honor Thy Word. [Refrain]

4 There shall be showers of blessing:
Oh, that today they might fall,
Now as to God we’re confessing,
Now as on Jesus we call! [Refrain]

Open Heaven For Today 2025 Monday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – He Is Able And Willing

Click HERE for the Previous Open Heaven Devotional

TOPIC: He Is Able And Willing

MEMORISE: “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,” – Ephesians 3:20 (KJV)

READ: Mark 1:40-45 (KJV)

40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.

42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.

43 And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;

44 And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

45 But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 14-16

Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE

As discussed yesterday, God is the source of all help, and He is able to help you in any situation. He said in Jeremiah 32:27, “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?” He told Sarah in Genesis 18:9-14 that she was going to have a son, and she laughed. He responded, “Is anything too hard for the Lord to do?” Your case is not too hard for God; He can do ALL things.

One of my daughters had been believing God for the fruit of the womb, but the doctors told her that she could never have a child. One day, a relative called her husband and said, “Stop wasting your money because your wife cannot have a child.” When he asked why, the relative said it was because witches had removed her womb. Soon after that, she came to a Holy Ghost Service, and the word of God came thus, “There is someone here, you have no womb, but God says He will give you a set of twins.” That month, she became pregnant.

When she was set to deliver, her husband asked the doctors to perform a Caesarean Section on her. The surgeon took out the twins and said, “I have been practising medicine for 34 years; this is the first time I have brought out a set of twins without a womb.” We rejoiced over that testimony, and several years later, I got a phone call from her saying that she wanted to visit me with her twins. I was expecting her to bring the twins that we all rejoiced over, but she came with a new set of twins! There is a God who can do the incredible and surprise you beyond your wildest imagination. I pray that as He lives, He will give you a miracle today, in Jesus’ name.

Not only is God able to help you, He is also willing. In today’s Bible reading, a leper came to Jesus and said that he knew Jesus could make him clean, but he wasn’t sure if He was willing. Beloved, you may be thinking, “I know God is a miracle worker; I have seen Him working, and I have heard countless testimonies, but I am not sure if He is willing to help me.” I decree, in the name of the One who called me, your day has come. Go ahead and ask Him for help, and you will receive that help, in Jesus’ name

PRAYER POINT

Lord, I know You are willing and able; please help me!

HYMN 15 – Pass Me Not O Gentle Saviour

1 Pass me not, O gentle savior
Hear my humble cry
While on others Thou art calling
Do not pass me by.

Saviour, Saviour
Hear my humble cry
While on others Thou art calling
Do not pass me by.

2 Let me at thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contribution
Help my unbelief.

3 Trusting only in the Thy merit
would i seek thy face
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
save me by thy grace.

4 Thou, the spring of all my comfort
More than life to me
Whom have I on earth beside Thee
Whom in Heav’n but Thee?
