OPEN HEAVEN 19 JULY 2021 TOPIC: Abide in Christ
MEMORISE: Abide in me, and I in you, As the branch cannot bear
fruits of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide
in me - John 15:4
READ: John 15:4-8 (KJV)
4 Abide in me, and I in
you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no
more can ye, except ye abide in me.
5 I am the vine, ye are
the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much
fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in
me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and
cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If ye abide in me, and
my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto
you.
8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 17:1-16 , Job 18:1-21
Open Heaven 19 July 2021 MESSAGE:
The meaning of the name Emmanuel is not real to
many so-called children of God because they are not abiding in Christ.
Therefore, they are caught in many horrible things in the course of their daily
activities. This scripture reveals our part in the covenant of God being our
Present Help in times of need Psalms 46:1. We must remember that the Almighty God is
forever faithful. Though the world may deny Him, He cannot deny Himself. Though
the whole world may be unfaithful, He remains faithful to His word in the lives
of His children. What is our part in this bargain? We must abide in Him, living
holy because He is holy. We should never take a break from living holy. It is
important for all children of God who want to enjoy the presence of Emmanuel to
abide in Him so that He would in turn abide in them. How can we abide in God? Ecclesiastes 12:13 says:

“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and
keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.”
We must fear God and keep His commandments. Many people today are
taking the grace of God for granted, teaching that we can live in sin and grace
would still abound Romans 6:1. Mischievously they
argue that we are in the dispensation of grace and thus can do whatever we
like. They seem to be saying Let us commit sin the more, so that we may make
maximum use of Gods abundant grace! They claim to believe in God yet do not see
Him as the Consuming Fire Hebrews 12:29 !Constantly being in the presence of God
attracts multiple blessings. One of these is the opportunity to pray and
receive instant answers to our prayers. Jesus said:
“If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what
ye will, and it shall be done unto you. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye
bear much fruit; So shall ye be my disciples.”
“John 15:78”
What if we fail to abide in Christ? God forbid, because it carries
terrible consequences. Jesus Christ our Lord said in John 15:6
“If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is
withered; And men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are
burned.”
Abiding in Christ is the ticket to peace and prosperity on earth,
as well as eternity with God. Therefore, let us abide in Him because He is
willing to grant us everlasting life.
Open Heaven 19 July 2021 PRAYER POINT:
Father, please help me to abide in You, in the mighty name of
Jesus.
