OPEN HEAVEN 17 AUGUST 2021
TOPIC: Choose
the God Exploits
MEMORISE: There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the
days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail
thee, nor forsake thee. – Joshua 1:5
READ: Joshua 1:3-8 (KJV)
3 Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have
I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.
4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river,
the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea
toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.
5 There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days
of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee,
nor forsake thee.
6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou
divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give
them.
7 Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe
to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not
from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever
thou goest.
8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

HEAVEN 16 AUGUST 2021 – WHO DO YOU REPRESENT
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalms 108:1-13, Psalms
109:1-31, Psalms 110:1-7
Open Heaven 17 August 2021
MESSAGE:
There are challenges in this world. This is what Job pondered upon that made him conclude that:
“Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble”
Job 14:1
However, we have the Lords assurance in Psalms 46:1-2, 4-5 that:
“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the
mountains be carried into the midst of the sea…There is a river, the streams
whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of
the most High. God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall
help her, and that right early.”
When we surrender our lives to God, He takes it up from there
and becomes our ready Help. Beloved, who is your pillar of support? If it is
God, I congratulate you, but if it is someone or something else, it is
unfortunate. The Bible says:
“Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man,
and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.” Jeremiah
17:5
Our memory verse of today is very assuring. This is an unfailing
promise to all of Gods children. As I have taught my children in the Lord on
several occasions, if God be for us, the only person who can be against us is
our very selves. God has no problem helping man but He gave him a free will.
Thus, to access the help of God, man must ask. The Bible says:
“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I
have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose
life, that both thou and thy seed may live:” Deuteronomy 30:19
The good news is that God has given us His Spirit to guard and
guide us into the truth that we need to know, in order to make the right
choice. Jesus Himself said:
“…I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh unto the
Father, but by me.” John 14:6
Surrender yourself to God through Jesus Christ, our Lord, and
you will do exploits indeed. All the powers of darkness blocking your way to
success and breakthroughs shall be destroyed in Jesus name.
Open Heaven 17 August 2021 KEY POINT:
Search your life and see if there is anything in it
that is offensive to God. Get rid of it and accept Jesus as your Lord if you
are yet to do so.
Open Heaven 17 August 2021 HYMN Great is thy faithfulness, O God my Father
1.
Great is thy
faithfulness, O God my Father;
there is no shadow of turning with thee;
thou changest not, thy compassions, they fail
not;
as thou hast been thou forever wilt be.
Refrain:
Great is thy faithfulness!
Great is thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see:
all I have needed thy hand hath provided–
Great is thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
1.
Summer and winter and
springtime and
harvest,
sun, moon, and stars in their courses above
join with all nature in manifold witness
to thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love.
2.
Pardon for sin and a
peace that endureth,
thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide,
strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
