TOPIC: The Wayside
MEMORISE: “And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.” – Mark 4:4 (KJV)
READ: Mark 4:14-15 (KJV)
14 The sower soweth the word.
15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 9-11

Yesterday, I explained that the quality of soil determines the level of harvest that a seed can yield. When a seed is planted in some soils, it will not even germinate. In today’s memory verse, we see that some seeds that fell on the wrong kind of soil did not germinate because birds ate them.
Some scholars have suggested that the wayside refers to money spent on regular wild parties and other similar vices. When people throw parties, people will come, eat, drink, and say ‘thank you’; however, that is where it all ends. Such people might say, “Others will invite me to their parties also.” This is true, but we do not live by parties; we live by daily bread. If you want God’s wisdom for financial prosperity, you must be prudent with your spending.
There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up. – Proverbs 21:20
Only fools spend everything they have at once. Some people spend all their earnings recklessly. For example, some unbelievers drink and buy alcohol for others. Such people are unwise because, like the prodigal son, they will eventually be abandoned by those they lavished their money on.
The wayside can also refer to actions that expose people’s finances to satanic attacks. In the parable of the sower, the seeds that fell by the wayside were eaten by birds, and as Jesus explained in today’s Bible reading, the birds represent satan. When Christians do not pay their tithes, they are robbing God and throwing their finances on the wayside for satan to devour. Paying your tithes makes the Lord rebuke the devourer for your sake (Malachi 3:8-11).
When believers, including ministers of God, steal God’s money or take anything that doesn’t belong to them without permission from the owners, they are exposing themselves to the devil’s attacks. Someone once said to me, “I learned that your Festival of Life programme in the UK has become very big.” I said, “Yes, sir.” Then, he said, “How much is the church’s income from the service?” When I told him that I didn’t know, he didn’t believe me. I told him that the UK pastors were in charge and that they know that the Bible is clear that anyone who acquires wealth wrongly would die suddenly (Jeremiah 17:11). Those who steal God’s money are inviting satan to feast on their lives and finances.
PRAYER POINT
Father, please show me every way l might have been wasteful, and help me to make amends, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
HYMN 31– Yield Not To Temptation
1 Yield not to temptation,
for yielding is sin;
Each victory will help you some
other to win;
Fight manfully onward, dark passions
subdue;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you
through.
Ask the Savior to help you,
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you;
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.
2 Shun evil companions, bad language
disdain;
God’s name hold in reverence, nor take it in
vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest, kindhearted and
true;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
3 To him that o’ercometh, God giveth a crown,
Thro’ faith we will conquer, though often
cast down;
He who is our Saviour,
our strength will renew;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.

Open Heaven For Today 2025 Sunday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – Financial Wisdom
Click HERE for the Previous Open Heaven Devotional
TOPIC: Financial Wisdom
MEMORISE: “With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding.” – Job 12:13 (KJV)
READ: Mark 4:1-9 (KJV)
1 And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.
2 And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,
3 Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:
4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.
5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:
6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.
9 And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 5-8

Seeds have the potential to become harvests, but not all fulfil that potential. John 12:24 says that except a seed falls to the ground and dies, it abides alone. Every seed remains alone if it is kept in a bag or on a shelf; it can be eaten as it is, but it won’t be multiplied. Isaiah 55:10 says that God gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater. Beloved, you can choose to either be a sower or an eater. If you keep eating everything that comes to you, what then will you sow in order to have a greater harvest?
Wise people set apart good seeds to be sown into good soils, and they get great harvests. Money that is put aside for investment is a seed, while the place, person, or business that it is invested in is the soil. The better the soil, the better the harvest will be. You must learn to recognise good soils and water your seeds to ensure they yield the best harvest.
Over the next few days, I will discuss the different kinds of soils and the ones you should invest in or avoid. Today, however, I will explain some vital keys to financial wisdom.
Job 36:11 tells us a secret to accessing God’s wisdom for financial prosperity: obey and serve Him. When you obey God, He will show you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches in secret places (Isaiah 45:3). How obedient are you to God concerning your finances? Do you honour Him with all He has given you? Do you pay your tithes faithfully? Do you give to the needy and poor?
When you obey God, He will give you supernatural ideas that will make you thrive in the midst of famine, just as He gave Isaac. Isaac wanted to relocate when famine hit the land, but God told him to stay put, and he obeyed. His obedience gave him access to God’s wisdom, and despite the famine, he reaped a hundredfold that same year (Genesis 26:1-12).
Job 36:11 also talks about service as a key to God’s wisdom for financial prosperity. How you serve God matters. If you serve Him grudgingly or carelessly, He will not trust you with the wisdom to make wealth. Jesus told us not to cast our pearls before swine (Matthew 7:6-7); He won’t cast His before swine too.
Beloved, serve God acceptably in reverence and godly fear (Hebrews 12:28), and He will bless you with financial wisdom, among other things.
Key Point:
Obeying and serving the Lord will give you access to His wisdom for financial prosperity.
HYMN 28 – Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah
1 Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah!
Pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but Thou art mighty,
Hold me with Thy powerful hand:
Bread of heaven! Bread of heaven!
Feed me now and evermore (2ce)
2 Open Thou the crystal fountain,
Whence the healing stream doth flow:
Let the fiery, cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through:
Strong deliverer! strong deliverer!
Be Thou still my strength and shield (2ce)
3 If I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside:
Bear me through the swelling torrent,
Land me safe on Canaan’s side:
Songs of praises! songs of praises!
I will ever give to Thee (2ce)
4 Saviour, come. We long to see Thee,
Long to dwell with Thee above;
And to know in full communion,
All the sweetness of Thy love.
Come, Lord Jesus! Come, Lord Jesus!
Take Thy waiting people home (2ce)

MEMORISE: “And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.” – Exodus 23:25 (KJV)
READ: John 9:1-7 (KJV)
1 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
7 And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Deuteronomy 3-4
Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE
Years ago, I suddenly discovered that I was having trouble with my hearing. I called one of my daughters, who is a doctor, and asked her to check my ears. When she checked them, she exclaimed, “Oh God!” She then said that both ears had growths inside, and she encouraged me to go to the hospital. I smiled and told her to give me seven days, after which I would allow her to do whatever needed to be done medically if the growths were still there. I knew that I have a Father who is the Doctor of doctors, so I spoke to Him after she left. I said, “Father, please give me new ears because I need to be able to hear people say ‘amen’ when I pray.” When she returned on the seventh day to look into my ears, she exclaimed again, “Oh God!” But that time around, her exclamation was a positive one because Jehovah Rapha had healed me.
Do you know that it is possible to live without falling sick? Do you know that healing is your bread if you are a child of God? However, for God to be the Lord that heals you, you must diligently hearken to His voice (Exodus 15:26). You must do whatever He tells you to do and obey Him promptly. When the ten lepers saw Jesus and cried out to Him for healing, He asked them to go and show themselves to the priests (Luke 17:11-14). Doing that was risky because if they got to the priest without being healed, they might have been stoned to death. They took the risk to obey Jesus, and they were healed. Likewise, the man who was born blind received his healing when Jesus asked him to go and wash in the pool of Siloam (John 9:7). He chose to obey Jesus, and he returned with his sight.
Beloved, it is God’s will for you to enjoy healing in all areas of your life. It is the Father’s good pleasure for you to live in sound health, but you must hearken diligently to His voice. What has God asked you to stop eating or drinking? What has He asked you to start doing? Be prompt to obey Him, and you will enjoy healing.
KEY POINT
The Key to living in divine health is obeying God.
HYMN 25 – The Great Physician Now Is Near
1 The great Physician now is near,
the sympathizing Jesus;
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,
oh! hear the voice of Jesus.
Refrain:
Sweetest note in seraph song,
sweetest name on mortal tongue;
sweetest carol ever sung,
Jesus, blessed Jesus.
2 Your many sins are all forgiven,
oh! hear the voice of Jesus;
go on your way in peace to heaven,
and wear a crown with Jesus. [Refrain]
3 All glory to the risen Lamb!
I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Savior’s name,
love the name of Jesus. [Refrain]
4 His name dispels my guilt and fear,
no other name but Jesus;
oh! how my soul delights to hear
the charming name of Jesus. [Refrain]
