Open Heaven Daily Devotional – 8th December 2025 | MESSAGE
When Joshua became the leader of the Israelites, God promised to support him all the way and also told him that wherever the sole of his foot touched, he would have it (Joshua 1:1-5). All through the period Joshua led the children of Israel through the wilderness, he found this to be true until the day the Israelites were defeated by a small nation called Ai. After this defeat, Joshua went to God and asked for the reason they lost, and God told him that there was sin in the camp of the Israelites (Joshua 7:2-11). This shows us that even when you are doing the will of God, and He has promised to support you all the way, He will withdraw His support the moment you start engaging in sin. Sin will turn a child of God into an enemy of God, and because God’s eyes are too pure to behold iniquity (Habakkuk 1:13), He will withdraw from such a fellow.
God made several wonderful promises to Moses. For instance, He told Moses that His presence would go with him and He would give him rest (Exodus 33:14). In Exodus 33:1, He also told Moses to go up with the children of Israel and take them to the Promised Land which He had sworn to give to their fathers – Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. However, when Moses disobeyed God, the Lord withdrew His support, and Moses died in the wilderness (Deuteronomy 34:4-5). Disobedience to God’s instructions will make a person lose His support.
Saul was Israel’s first king, and God had planned to establish his kingdom forever (1 Samuel 13:13). However, after he sat on the throne as king, he became proud and disobedient to God (1 Samuel 15:1-30). This made God to change His mind, withdraw His support, and give the kingdom to David. Samson was also destined for greatness. However, he started living in sin, and he thought God would never leave him. On the day God’s support was withdrawn from him, he didn’t even know until the enemies had captured him (Judges 16:20).
Beloved, are you engaging in anything that will take God’s support away from you? If you are engaging in secret sins, desist from them immediately. Don’t think that there will not be consequences because things are still going on as usual. God is surely taking records. Repent today before He decides to turn His back on you. May the Lord not withdraw His support from you, in Jesus’ name.
REFLECTION:
Are you doing anything that will cause God to withdraw His support from you?
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR
Ephesians 1-3
HYMN 34
YIELD NOT TO TEMPTATION
1. Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin;
Each victory will help you some other to
win;
Fight manfully onward, dark passions
subdue;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
Ask the Savior to help you,
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you;
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.
2. Shun evil companions, bad language
disdain;
God’s name hold in reverence, nor take it in
vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest, kindhearted and
true;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
3. To him that o’ercometh, God giveth a crown,
Thro’ faith we will conquer, though often
cast down;
He who is our Saviour,
our strength will renew;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
