RCCG Open Heaven 28 October 2026 Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye – HELP FROM HEAVEN II
Topic: HELP FROM HEAVEN II
Memorise:
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
— Hebrews 1:14 (KJV)
Read: Acts 8:26-40 (KJV)
26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,
28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.
29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:
33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
40 But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.
RCCG Open Heavens 28 October 2026 Today Message by Pastor E.A. Adeboye
I mentioned yesterday that one of the ways God sends help to His children from heaven is through angelic interventions. I recall experiencing one when I was about six or seven years old. An elder sister of mine got married and moved away to her husband's farm, which was a long way from our home. One day, I asked her, "Where is your farm?", and she gave me directions to the place: "When you arrive at so and so location, turn right; when you reach so and so spot, turn left."
A little while thereafter, I decided to visit her on her husband's farm. Being a little child, I did not know how far it was, so I set out on the journey. I tried to follow the directions she gave me, but I eventually got lost. I did not know how to get back home, nor did I know how to get to the farm I was going to.
Childishly, I looked up to heaven and said, "God, please help me." By the time I looked down, I saw a little white dog wagging its tail and looking at me as if I were its friend. Since I was clueless about where I was, I followed the dog, hoping it would lead me to where people could help me.
Surprisingly, the dog led me to my sister's farm. When I got there, and my sister saw me, she was alarmed and asked, "How did you get here? Who brought you here?" I said, "That little white dog." She replied that she didn't have a dog on her farm. Immediately, we stepped outside the farm and began to look everywhere. Amazingly, the dog I had just followed to the farm was nowhere to be found. I firmly believe that God sent an angel to help me so that I could one day preach the gospel to the world.
Today's memory verse describes angels as ministering spirits sent forth to minister to those who are to be heirs of salvation. In today's Bible reading, God sent an angel to give Philip specific directions about the next phase of his ministry. After winning the city of Samaria for Jesus, it was time for him to move on to the next phase of his mission, and the angel told him exactly where to go.
Beloved, God still sends His angels to guide His people. I pray that you will not miss such angelic ministrations, in Jesus' name.
Prayer Point:
Father, please let me enjoy angelic ministrations all the days of my life, in Jesus' name.
Bible in One Year:
Luke 16-18
Hymn: Jesus Loves Me
Verse 1:
Jesus loves me! This I know,
For the Bible tells me so;
Little ones to Him belong;
They are weak, but He is strong.
Chorus:
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.
Verse 2:
Jesus loves me! He who died
Heaven's gate to open wide;
He will wash away my sin,
Let His little child come in.
(Chorus)
Verse 3:
Jesus loves me! He will stay
Close beside me all the way;
Thou hast bled and died for me,
I will henceforth live for Thee.
(Chorus)
