TOPIC: The Great Physician
MEMORISE: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; Psalm 103:3
READ: Luke 4:37-40(KJV)
37 And the fame of him went out into every place of the country round about.
38 And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon’s house. And Simon’s wife’s mother was taken with a great fever; and they besought him for her.
39 And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.
40 Now when the sun was setting, all they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them unto him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 13-14
Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE
God is the Great Physician. In Exodus 15:26, He said, “…I am the Lord that healeth thee.” The Bible says that He sent His word and healed them (Psalm 107:20). He is the God of all flesh, and nothing is too hard for Him (Jeremiah 32:27).
Some diseases are termed incurable, but for God, no disease is incurable. Even if a damaged body part is deemed irreparable, He can replace it. While earthly physicians refer cases to each other when they cannot handle them, the Great Physician never refers a case – He is a specialist in all fields of medicine.
Years ago, a wealthy chief, who became paralysed from the waist downwards, was taken to the best hospital in London. After trying their best and he didn’t get better, the doctors gave up. To prove the hopelessness of his case, the head surgeon drove a long pin through the chief’s thigh, and when the latter felt no pain, he told him, “Go home, stop wasting your money, you will never walk again.”
The chief was taken back home, and a young girl, who is a member of RCCG, witnessed to him and said, “If you can get to my G.O., you will walk again.” The chief was brought to Redemption City, and because he had a big stature, six hefty men had to carry him into my living room. I told him my God can change the doctors’ report and that if he surrendered his life to Jesus, things would change. He surrendered his life to Jesus, we prayed, and he walked back to his car!
What renowned medical specialists termed impossible took God only a few seconds to do!
I have seen God turn hopeless cases into great testimonies. Thave seen Him step into sorrowful rooms as a result of the death of loved ones and turn them into places of joy and laughter. I have seen Him do the impossible, and your case will not be different; just believe in Him because all things are possible to him that believes (Mark 9:23). He turned around the 12-year-old case of the woman with the issue of blood in a second (Luke 8:44). Lazarus’ four-day-old dead body didn’t take him hours to resurrect (John 11:43-44). The man at the pool of Bethesda with the 38-year-old infirmity received instant healing (John 5:1-9).
If you have any sicknesses or diseases in your body, I pray that the Great Physician will step in and turn things around immediately, in Jesus’ name.
Key Point
There is no hopeless case with the Great Physician.
HYMN 25: The Great Physician Now Is Near
1 The great Physician now is near,
The sympathizing Jesus;
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,
Oh, hear the voice of Jesus.
Refrain:
Sweetest note in seraph song,
Sweetest name on mortal tongue;
Sweetest carol ever sung,
Jesus, blessed Jesus.
2 Your many sins are all forgiv’n,
Oh, hear the voice of Jesus;
Go on your way in peace to heav’n,
And wear a crown with Jesus.
[Refrain]
3 All glory to the dying Lamb!
I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessed Savior’s name,
I love the name of Jesus.
[Refrain]
4 His name dispels my guilt and fear,
No other name but Jesus;
Oh, how my soul delights to hear
The charming name of Jesus.
[Refrain]

TOPIC: Constant Vs Variables 2
MEMORISE: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto l sent it. Isaiah 55:11
READ: Hebrews 4:12-13 (KJV)
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Samuel 4-7
Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE
In a world of constantly changing laws and policies, God can be trusted to remain an absolute constant, as l discussed yesterday.
His words, principles, and actions are consistent, and they can never change.
When politicians campaign for political offices, they make numerous promises, some of which they often fail to fulfil.
God is never like that; His promises are constant, and His deeds can be absolutely trusted.
Many things are constant about God; I will discuss one today – His word – and three more tomorrow.
God’s word existed before the world began, and it will remain long after the earth passes away (John 1:1).
If He makes you a promise and you play your part as He requires, no matter how long it takes, He will surely fulfil it.
One day, I was praying, and God said, “Son, presidents will come to the camp to worship.”
At that time, it seemed impossible, but Daddy said it, and as far as l was concerned, it was settled already.
Therefore, with faith, we built a presidential lodge immediately, and it was the biggest building in the camp (now Redemption City) back then.
Three years passed, and when no president came, some senior pastors said to me, “Daddy, you are our president.
Why don’t you move into the presidential lodge?” They didn’t fully understand why we built the presidential lodge, and they felt that I wanted to live in a big house but didn’t know how to tell them.
I told them, “No! That’s not my house. It’s for presidents; they will come.” Of course, presidents have come and are still coming.
No matter how long it takes, God’s word and promises will come to pass.
According to today’s memory verse, the potency of God’s word is constant; no word that comes out of His mouth will return to Him void.
This means that you can claim whatever you see in the Scriptures, and you will receive it if you believe.
For example, Deuteronomy 28:13 says that you shall be the head and not the tail. If you believe this, then you will indeed be the head.
1 Peter 2:24 says that you have been healed by His stripes. If you believe this, then sickness has no place in your body.
Situations may vary, but God’s word is constant. No matter how bad a situation appears to be, God can turn it around for good because His word is living and powerful, and that will never change.
Key Point
Your situation is a variable, but God’s word is constant. His word never fails.
HYMN 3: Ancient Words
1. Holy words long preserved,
For our walk in this world,
They resound with God’s own heart;
Oh, let the ancient words impart.
REFRAIN:
Ancient words, ever true,
Changing me and changing you,
We have come with open hearts;
Oh, let the ancient words impart.
2. Words of life, words of hope,
Give us strength, help us cope,
In this world, where e’er we roam;
Ancient words will guide us home.
3. Holy words of our faith,
Handed down to this age,
Came to us through sacrifice;
Oh, heed the faithful words of Christ.
4. Holy words long preserved,
For our walk in this world,
They resound with God’s own heart;
Oh, let the ancient words impart.

MEMORISE: For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Malachi 3:6
READ: Lamentations 3:22-26 (KJV)
22 It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
24 The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
25 The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
26 It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord.
Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE
We live in a world of constants and variables. For example, the heights and weights of humans are variables as they differ between individuals.
Wealth is also a variable because some people are rich while some are poor.
Even among the rich, wealth remains a variable because a fellow can have riches today, and it could all be gone tomorrow (Proverbs 23:5).
In contrast, constants represent things that never change. For instance, men do not get pregnant and give birth.
In life also, we have variable constants; these are things that are supposed to be constant but can be subject to changes.
For example, adults are supposed to have 32 teeth, but if you check, you may find that some adults have less than 32 teeth.
Ecclesiastes 12:3 says that the grinders become few with age, which is the Bible’s wonderful way of saying that you may lose some of your teeth as you grow older.
Furthermore, we have absolute constants. For example, a day following a night is a constant.
It has been happening since the world began, and it will continue to happen until God says otherwise.
Psalm 30:5 says that weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.
It is certain that a day will follow a night; therefore, before sunrise tomorrow, all your sorrows will be gone, in Jesus’ name.
Our God is an absolute constant. In today’s memory verse, He said, “…l am the Lord, I change not…” He is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8).
Who He was is who He is – He never changes. That is why He introduced Himself to Moses as I AM, not 1 WAS, nor ‘I WILL BE’.
If He gave someone a miracle yesterday, you can rest assured that He can give you the same today.
The God who healed the sick and made the lame walk is still the same.
Do you have a case that looks impossible? Our God is Almighty, and there is nothing impossible with Him (Luke 1:37).
Pray and search through the Scriptures for God’s word to you concerning the situation, for the things that were written in the Bible were written for your learning, that you might have hope through patience and the comfort of the Scriptures (Romans 15:4).
Beloved, God never changes; His word is constant (Isaiah 40:8). Let your heart be filled with hope because His word never fails.
Hold on to His word, and very soon, your hope will be turned into testimonies.
Key Word
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever more. He is our sure constant amidst
HYMN 21: My Hope Built On Nothing Less
1. My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.
Refrain:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
2. When darkness seems to veils His face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]
3. His oath, His covenant, and blood,
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay. [Refrain]
4. When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne. [Refrain]
Open Heaven For Today 2025 Friday Daily Devotional By Pastor E. A. Adeboye – The Seed Of God
Click HERE for Previous Open Heaven Devotional
TOPIC: The Seed Of God
MEMORISE: Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. 1 Peter 1:23
READ: 1 John 3:7-9 (KJV)
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ruth 1-4
Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE
When God’s seed is in you, sin becomes irritating to you. No matter how hungry a cat is, it will not eat faeces. Today’s Bible reading says that if you are born of God, you cannot sin because God’s seed is in you. As God’s child, no matter the temptation you face, His seed in you will help you overcome it.
People who claim to be born again and are still enjoying sin are not truly saved. Sin separates people from God and makes them satan’s lawful captives (2 Timothy 2:26). If you are living in sin, you should cry to God for His salvation that takes away the seed of sin and replaces it with His seed.
God translates believers from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of His light (Colossians 1:13) and gives them a new identity and DNA. Just as a mango seed can never produce an apple, Christians don’t have the capacity to produce sin because God’s seed is in them. However, if a believer refuses to nurture and grow this seed, he or she will be overpowered by sin. Abiding in God’s word is one way to allow the seed of God within you to bloom and cause you to bear the fruits of righteousness.
Today’s memory verse says that you have been born again of incorruptible seed – the word of God, which lives and abides forever. His word is sharper than any two-edged sword and can discern the intents of our hearts long before they become actions (
Hebrews 4:12). Christians who allow God’s word to dwell richly in them (Colossians 3:16) will stand strong against temptations and sin. Sin is an operation of darkness, but God’s word brings light and understanding (Psalm 119:130). Knowing God’s word will make you wise and alert; you will be able to foresee the dangers in certain situations and hide yourself (Proverbs 22:3).
Joseph discerned the evil in Potiphar’s wife’s request and ran away (Genesis 39:12). Samson, on the other hand, couldn’t discern the evil in Delilah’s request until it was too late (Judges 16:1-21). If you want to be a great instrument in God’s hands, you must take God’s word seriously. Anything that keeps you from God’s word wants to destroy your soul. God’s seed in you will be preserved from the corruption of sin when you make His word your topmost priority.
Don’t allow yourself to become Satan’s lawful captive.
Reflection
Is God’s word your meditation all day long? (Psalm 119:97).
HYMN 24: I Wat To Be Like Jesus
1 Earthly pleasures vainly call me;
I would be like Jesus;
Nothing worldly shall enthrall me,
I would be like Jesus.
Refrain:
Be like Jesus - this my song,
In the home and in the throng;
Be like Jesus, all day long,
I would be like Jesus.
2 He has broken every fetter,
I would be like Jesus;
That my soul may serve Him better,
I would be like Jesus. [Refrain]
3 All the way from earth to glory,
I would be like Jesus;
Telling o’er and o’er the story,
I would be like Jesus. [Refrain]
4 That in heaven He may meet me,
I would be like Jesus;
That His words “Well done” may greet me,
I would be like Jesus. [Refrain]

TOPIC: From Dog To Child 2
MEMORISE: But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. Matthew 9:13
READ: 1 Timothy 1:11-17 (KJV)
11 And he said, A certain man had two sons:
12 And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.
13 And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;
13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Judges 20-21
Open Heaven For Today 2025 MESSAGE
Yesterday, I established that God considers sinners and backsliders as dogs (Matthew 15:21-28, 2 Peter 2:22), and today, I will conclude the discussion on God’s willingness to change them to children.
Before I became born again, and while I was still single, I had so many girlfriends. Years later, after I had gotten married and given my life to Christ, I became a lecturer at the University of Ilorin. After a while, one of my former girlfriends, who had also gotten married, relocated to llorin with her husband.
She had a child who was born lame, and somebody told her that there was a pastor who could pray for her child, and the child would begin to walk. When she came to the church, she asked to see the pastor. She was ushered into my office, and when she opened the door and saw me, we greeted ourselves as old flames would. Finally, she said, “I want to see the pastor.” I said, “Yes, how can I help you?” She replied, “I said I want to see the pastor.” I said, “I am the pastor.” She responded, “You? You will pray, and God will answer?” We prayed, and the child began to walk.
The Bible says that if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature (2 Corinthians 5:17). The greatest miracle is the salvation of souls. If you are not yet born again, no matter now grave your sins are, God can save you too as He saved me.
Before Saul encountered Jesus, he was a persecutor of Christians. However, after his encounter, he became a great asset to the Kingdom (1 Timothy 1:12-14). God converted cities through him, and a whole continent heard of Jesus through his ministry (Acts 19:26).
There is no limit to what God can do in you, with you, and through you because when He transforms a man, He does it completely. As a son, you will have access to divine privileges. You will have the right to call God your Father, and you will partake of His inheritance.
Paul understood what it meant to be a new creature, and as God’s child, he exercised his divine rights and authority. From a former dog, special miracles happened, and many people became transformed. If you are not yet born again, God wants to give you a new identity and make you His beloved child. Surrender to Him now and watch Him make your life a wonder to many (Psalm 71:7).
Key Point
God is still in the business of transforming dogs into children
HYMN 2: Amazing Grace! How Sweet The Sound!
1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch; like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
2 Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come
This grace that brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home
3 The Lord hath promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.
4 Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
and mortal life shall cease:
I shall possess, within the veil,
a life of joy and peace.
5 The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
the sun forbear to shine;
but God, who called me here below,
will be forever mine.
6 When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun.
