Memorise: If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a
vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared
unto every good work. 2nd Timothy 2:21
Read: 2nd Timothy 2:19-21 (KJV)
19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth
sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let every one
that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of
silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to
dishonour.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel
unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every
good work.
Bible in one year: Ezekiel 28-31, Hymn: Sing hymn 12

Open Heaven 3 September 2020 – The Power of Dedication
So many people take dedication for granted
and this is because they don’t understand the power behind it. When you
dedicate an object, it becomes the possession and responsibility of who it is
dedicated to. This is why you must dedicate your children or property to God
alone.
It could be very risky to wait several years
before handing your children over to God. It doesn’t necessarily require a
party; you could just take them to Church and let the Pastor dedicate them
officially. If you have to, you can celebrate later.

I met a woman who had three daughters with
the youngest approaching age thirty, yet none of them was in a relationship,
let alone marriage. I was about to pray when the Lord urged me to ask her
certain questions. She eventually confessed that all three daughters had been
dedicated to Ifa (A West African deity) when they were born, claiming it was to
protect them from witches and wizards. We broke the hold of lfa and rededicated
the ladies to God. That same year, all three got married.
Open Heaven 4 September 2020 Friday: Action Point
Some marriages remain fruitless because
someone poured liberation during the traditional wedding ceremony. This is why
we advocate that the Church wedding must be done after the traditional, so any
such strange spirit that may have been invited into the union, whether with or
without the knowledge of the couple can be expelled.
Some businesses have been possessed by one
demon or the other because a ‘well-wisher’ invoked a contrary spirit at the
opening ceremony. You must never allow such. There is nothing the devil is
involved in that ever ends well. From now, dedicate everything that is yours to
God.
Action Point
Mention and/or touch everything that is of value to you and dedicate
it to the Most High God now.
