HEAVEN 31 JULY 2021 TOPIC: What are Your Priorities
MEMORISE:
But as it is
written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart
of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. – 1 Corinthians 2:9
READ: John 4:23-24
(KJV)
23 But the hour cometh, and
now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in
truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
BIBLE
IN ONE YEAR: Job 21:1-34,
Job 22:1-30
Open Heaven 31 July 2021 MESSAGE:
The Scriptures present us with
a marked difference between the priorities of our Lord Jesus Christ and the
concerns of His disciples. Just like His disciples, many of us are too bothered
with how to meet our physical, psychological and emotional needs, rather than
on spiritual things. We immerse ourselves in temporal concerns. Jesus assured
His disciples that the Father knew their needs and would always provide for
them Luke 11:11-13. Jesus described what should be the topmost priority of all
Heaven-bound Christians in Matthew 6:33

HEAVEN 30 JULY 2021 – THE MARKS OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
“But
seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things
shall be added unto you.”
Open Heaven 31 July 2021 – OPEN HEAVEN FOR TODAY
It is
often said that passionate people make the greatest contributions to the society.
Be passionate about the things of God. Seek first the kingdom of God and His
righteousness, so that the necessities of daily life will be provided. It is
time to reprioritize your life and passion. God is called the God of glory in Acts 7:2.
There is a great expectation for all who serve God
in holiness and truth. Everyone who dedicates themselves to serving God in
spirit and in truth will enjoy divine favour Psalms 5:12. It should be noted
that a day of divine favour is better than many years of labour. Divine favour
is superior to luck or good fortune. I pray that you will experience divine
favour from today, in Jesus name.Heaven-bound Christians are focused on serving
God in spirit and in truth John
4:24. Material and worldly
possessions are secondary to them, despite Gods assurance of His provision.
There is fruitfulness for all who consecrate themselves to serving God in
spirit and truth. Psalms 92:12 says:
“The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow
like a cedar in Lebanon.”
There
is an assurance of victory over all known and unknown enemies for those who
serve God in righteousness. Psalms
132:18 says:
“His
enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.”
Are you consecrated to God? Do you love Him? Is the
righteousness of God your priority? If your answer to each of these questions
is yes, blessed are you. If not, seek a deeper relationship with the Lord from
today and you would be blessed also.
Open Heaven 31 July 2021 PRAYER POINT:
Father,
please grant me the grace to consecrate myself unto You. Help me to make
righteousness my utmost priority, in Jesus name.
Open Heaven 31 July 2021 HYMN – I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR
1. I need thee every
hour,
most gracious Lord;
no tender voice like thine
can peace afford.
Refrain:
I need thee, O I need thee;
every hour I need thee!
O bless me now, my Saviour,
I come to thee.
1. I need thee every
hour,
stay thou near by;
temptations lose their power
when thou art nigh.
2. I need thee every
hour,
in joy or pain;
come quickly, and abide,
or life is vain.
3. I need thee every
hour;
teach me thy will,
and thy rich promises
in me fulfill.
