OPEN HEAVEN 13 NOVEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

When there was a famine in Samaria, two women conspired to take turns to kill their children for food. After they ate the child of the first woman, the other refused to surrender her own son for food.

The first woman cried to the king for help but he replied, according to 2 Kings 6:27 ..If the Lord do not help thee, whence shall I help thee? Out of the barnfloor, or out of the winepress?

The Psalmist is right in saying that his help comes from the Creator of heaven and earth, according to our memory verse today. Genuine help can only come from above.

The Lord said in Psalms 50:15 And call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. Many people however, trust other humans, to their disappointment. The Bible discourages us from putting our trust in men.

Jeremiah 17:5 says ..Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord whereas verse 7 of the same chapter says Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.

Many years ago, someone heard that I was building a house and volunteered to supply blocks since he was a block manufacturer, offering to let me pay at my convenience.

The moment this man realised I was roofing the house, he began to pester me to pay for the blocks he had supplied, in spite of our agreement that I could pay at my convenience. reminded him that he was the one who offered that I could pay at my convenience but he insisted I had to pay immediately. I cried to God for help with a promise that I would never make such a mistake again and He rescued me.

Beloved, I prophesy to your life that the help which would not expose you to ridicule afterwards will come your way this season, in Jesus name.

You must however put your trust in the Lord; you must choose not to have a Plan B to your Present Help – the Almighty God. More importantly, you must surrender your life totally to Jesus Christ and abstain from all appearances of evil according to 1 Thessalonians 5:22 The Lord will send you help from above, in the mighty name of Jesus.

Father, please send help from above today and don’t let me be put to shame, in Jesus name

OPEN HEAVEN 13 NOVEMBER 2021 HYMN

O LORD OUR HELP IN AGES PAST

1. O Lord, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home:

2. Under the shadow of your throne,
your saints have dwelt secure;
sufficient is your arm alone,
and our defense is sure.

3. Before the hills in order stood,
or earth received her frame,
from everlasting you are God,
to endless years the same.

4. A thousand ages in your sight
are like an evening gone;
short as the watch that ends
the night before the rising sun.
