RCCG Open Heaven 17th January 2022 TOPIC:

TOPIC: Let There Be Light 3

MEMORISE:
“For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” – (2 Corinthians 8:9)

READ: 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 (KJV)
9. And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren; and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow.

1. And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

RCCG Open Heaven 19th January 2022 Devotional MESSAGE:

Let there be light could mean “Let the darkness of poverty disappear” so that pure wealth from God may appear – the type that does not bring sorrow along with it. The Almighty God is the Master Strategist, the Architect-in-Charge of the universe and the Greatest Builder of all time. Before the universe was put together, God planned it. No one is in this world by accident. He did not create man until all that he needed for his living was put in place. The earth was filled with the darkness of poverty but God fixed it before creating man. I pray that the Almighty God will deal with the darkness of poverty in your life, in Jesus’ name. The Almighty God told the children of Israel:

But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. – (Deuteronomy 8:18).

The members of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in particular have a covenant of pure wealth with God through our Father-in-the Lord, the founder of the RCCG. This is why we do not need to go the worldly way to get wealth. Wealth is our trademark because we need it to carry out our mandate of world evangelisation and missions. The good news is that every child of God can partake in this covenant of prosperity through faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God, according to today’s memory verse.

In today’s text we read of a man who realized that poverty is a form of darkness and thus decided not to condone it any longer. He thus prayed against it. This man was Jabez. The lesson all children of God must learn here is that poverty is not a Christian virtue and so it should be abhorred with a passion. As a matter of fact, poverty is in direct opposition to our relationship with God who says the cattle on a thousand hills belong to Him (Psalm 50:10).

May the light of the Almighty God shine upon you today and cause every form of the darkness of poverty to forever flee, in the mighty name of Jesus.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, whatever beautiful plans You have for my life that the enemies have distorted through the power of darkness, please restore in Jesus’ name.

RCCG Open Heaven 19th January 2022 HYMNAL:
HYMN 12 – MY FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE

1. My faith looks up to Thee,
   Thou Lamb of Calvary,
   Saviour divine!
   Now hear me while I pray,
   Take all my guilt away,
   O let me from this day
   Be wholly Thine!

2. May Thy rich grace impart
   Strength to my fainting heart,
   My zeal inspire;
   As Thou hast died for me,
   O may my love to Thee
   Pure, warm and changeless be
   A living fire!

3. While life’s dark maze I tread,
   And grief around me spread,
   Be Thou my guide;
   Bid darkness turn to day,
   Wipe sorrow’s tears away,
   Nor let me ever stray
   From Thee aside.

4. When ends life’s transient dream,
   When death’s cold sullen stream
   Shall o’er me roll;
   Blest Saviour, then in love,
   Fear and distrust remove;
   O bear me safe above,
   A ransomed soul.
