GRACE TO THE HUMBLE – Saturday July 11^th 2020

Memorise: Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. 1^st Peter 5:6

Read: Luke 18:10-14 (KJV)

¹⁰ Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.

¹¹ The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. You May Also like: Open Heaven – Respond with Love by Pastor E.A Adeboye

¹² I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.

¹³ And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. Click here for more The Next Level Open Heaven Daily Devotional

¹⁴ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

“The sacrifices of God are broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou will not despise.” Psalm 51:17 You May Also like: Open Heaven – Ingredients of perfection by Pastor E.A Adeboye

One of the fastest ways to commit spiritual suicide is to believe that you are a giant in the Christian faith. Believe me, there is no giant in Christianity. Man’s righteousness is like a filthy rag before the Most Holy One. Many years ago, during a meditation session at a conference, I fell into a trance in which I found myself among angels. They were all so pure that you could practically see through them; then I looked at myself and I was disgustingly filthy. This was surprising then because I was already a holiness preacher. If anyone had told me I was that dirty, I would have argued with them, but I could see it for myself.

Everyone may see you like a spiritual giant, but don’t be fooled; to God, you are still a baby. Never come before Him starting all your credentials – “I pay my tithe, I preach the gospel, I forgive my neighbour… so Lord, You have to hear me.” That is spiritual pride and God resist s the proud (1^st Peter 5:5). If anyone owes the other anything, you are the one that owes the other anything, you are the one that owes Him. Tell Him “Lord, please have mercy on me in this area where I need Your intervention. Remember my dedication to your Kingdom and please have mercy on me. “When you pray thus, He responds quickly. You May Also like: Open Heaven – Duties of the branch by Pastor E.A Adeboye

Open Heaven 11 July 2020 Saturday: Prayer Point

David was a man after God’s heart because he always came humbly before Him. Despite his achievements and feats for God, he never boasted in His presence. He always came seeking mercy. That is the kind of man that God can call “A man after my heart.” You may have done many great and mighty things for God; remember Moses. Even after all he had done for God, he still did not get to the promised land. It is only those who remain babies in the hands of God who can reach the promised land of Heaven. In Matthew 5:3, Jesus said: You May Also like: Open Heaven – Signs of Wonders by Pastor E.A Adeboye
