OPEN HEAVEN 16 JUNE 2021 BIBLE READING EXODUS 18:21

21. Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens;

 

GOOD MORNING BELOVED,

PERSONAL DAILY CONFESSION: The rod of the wicked will never stand over my life and household. The plans of workers of iniquity concerning me and all of my household is aborted. My life is filled with divine ability and purpose. My destiny is fine-tuned by the glorious power of Christ. I rise daily and I will never stop to the desires of the enemy. My prayers are not hindered or delayed because all things work together for my good. Glory be to God Hallelujah!

OPEN HEAVEN 16 JUNE 2021 MESSAGE

Covetousness is a major challenge both in the Church and in the world today.

Worldliness too has become a great foe of the Church and it appears many Christians (irrespective of how long they have been in the faith), are being carried along.

This may be because even they are victims of this sinful habit.

Our Lord Jesus, in today’s memory verse warns us against covetousness.

Covetousness can be described as an inordinate desire for material or non-material possessions, especially those of another individual.

In Exodus 20:17, the Lord warns against coveting someone else’s possessions or spouse.

The vanity in being covetous is captured in Ecclesiastes 5:10-11 which says:

He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this is also vanity. When goods increase, they are increased that eat them: and what good is there to the owners thereof, saving the beholding of them with their eyes?”

In (1 Timothy 6:6-9), Apostle Paul wrote to warn us against the menace of worldliness and covetousness. He encouraged believers to embrace godliness with contentment which is great gain. He said also that “…they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition” – (1 Timothy 6:9).

John corroborates this in (1 John 2:15-17) where he warned us against worldliness, saying:

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him…And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof…

Beloved, how far have you been dragged into the world?, How far has the world been dragged into you?.

Are you not running after those things that did not matter to you years ago?.

Even the rich are now running into the Church; they want peace and satisfaction.

They envy believers and want to share in our heritage.

While they are running to God for peace and joy, many of us have thrown away these blessings that money cannot buy, for the vanity of this world.

Remain where God has established you.

OPEN HEAVEN 16 JUNE 2021 HYMN

HYMN 14 – JESUS, MY LORD, MY GOD, MY ALL

1. Jesus, my Lord, my God, my all,
Hear me, blest Saviour, when I call;
Hear me, and from Thy dwelling place
Pour down the riches of Thy grace;

REFRAIN:
Jesus, my Lord, I Thee adore;
O make me love Thee more and more.

2. Jesus, too late I Thee have sought;
How can I love Thee as I ought?
And how extol Thy matchless fame,
The glorious beauty of Thy name?

3. Jesus, what didst Thou find in me,
That Thou hast dealt so lovingly?
How great the joy that Thou hast brought
So far exceeding hope or thought!

4. Jesus, of Thee shall be my song,
To Thee my heart and soul belong;
All that I have or am is Thine,
And Thou, blest Saviour, Thou art mine.
