Open Heaven Devotional 23 December 2023

RCCG Open Heaven Devotional 23 December 2023, Saturday Daily Devotional Guide written by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

TOPIC: The Revealer of Concealed Things

MEMORISE:
“And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.” – (Isaiah 45:3)

READ: Daniel 2:1-19 (KJV)

MESSAGE:
Our Bible reading for today tells the story of a king who had a dream he couldn’t remember on waking up. He summoned his wise men to tell him his dream and the interpretation, but they couldn’t. This made the king angry and he ordered the killing of all the wise men in his kingdom. This order would have affected Daniel and his companions as well, so he quickly asked for some more time as he was confident that God would reveal the dream and its interpretation to him.

Daniel prayed with his companions and God revealed the king’s dream with its interpretation to him. This made Daniel say in Daniel 2:21: “And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding”.

I have good news for any student reading this now: that particular subject that you find difficult is the one in which you will get a record-setting score, in Jesus’ name. Every believer operating in any sphere of life needs God to reveal concealed things to him or her. In (2 Kings 6:9-20), Elisha was the saving grace of the king of Israel. If it wasn’t for Elisha, the king would have run into the ambush set for him by the king of Syria.

If you are a politician or just someone in governance, you need to pray to God to always reveal concealed things to you. Business men also need God to reveal concealed things about their respective businesses to them. In fact, God promised in Isaiah 45:3:

And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.

There are hidden riches in secret places that you need God to reveal to you. He could reveal such to you as an idea, but the moment you pursue it, you would discover great riches in it. A man with financial challenges prayed to God for help and the Lord told him to start making honey-coated peanuts. The man obeyed the Lord and now flies around in his own private jets.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, please reveal great secrets to me that will change my life for good, in Jesus’ name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
1 John 1-5

HYMNAL:
Hymn 22 – Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer!
