OPEN HEAVEN 22 APRIL 2025 TUESDAY: BECOMING A TERROR TO THE DEVIL
OPEN HEAVEN 22 APRIL 2025 MEMORISE: The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; Isaiah 61:1
OPEN HEAVEN 22 APRIL 2025 READ: Judges 16:1-3
1. Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her.
2. And it was told the Gazites, saying, Samson is come hither. And they compassed him in, and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, In the morning, when it is day, we shall kill him.
3. And Samson lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and went away with them, bar and all, and put them upon his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of an hill that is before Hebron.
Refuse every desire to do God’s work in the flesh, learn to rely totally on the Holy Spirit. God bless you as you engage, share these messages, prayers and declarations.
Today’s Powerful Confession: I confess today that I am a wonder to my world, transformed by the Holy Spirit, and my life is a living testimony of God’s supernatural power in the mighty name of Jesus. Somebody Shout Hallelujah!
OPEN HEAVEN 22 APRIL 2025 MESSAGE:
Why did a whole army choose to wait until morning to attack just one man as we read in today’s Bible text?
I believe it was because they were afraid of Samson, and they knew they would need light in case he turned on them and they had to run.
Who can make you a terror to the forces of darkness and use you to force open the gates of a city for the light of the gospel to flood in? The answer is the Holy Spirit.
I recall when we first started to hold crusades across Nigeria in our hunger to do God’s work.
We would call all the ministers together at chosen location, feed them, and explain that we wanted to hold a crusade in their city.
They would come, eat our food, promise their full cooperation, and on the day of the crusade, they would all fix programs in their churches so there would be nobody to attend our crusade.
After some time, out of frustration, I told God, “Father, I want to do your work, but I’m spending and being spent without getting results” God replied “The fault is yours; you’re trying to do my work without the Holy Spirit”
When secret cults were beginning to take over Nigerian universities, the Holy Spirit ministered to me to take the Holy Ghost Service to the universities.
I started with the university of Ibadan, and when we told them we were hosting a Holy Ghost Service, all the students, lecturers, and the Vice-Chancellor came out.
To make matters interesting as I took the microphone that day, the rain began.
Although we were in the open, no one left, not even the Vice Chancellor!
When we asked those who wanted to forsake their secret societies to come forward, because the Holy Spirit was there, thousands of people came out.
Beloved above all you do, cultivate an intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit, and He will not only empower you but will also transform your life.
For example, before I became born again, I lived in fear and could not visit my village because l was afraid of the forces of darkness there.
Nowadays, however, I announce my visits ahead because I have been empowered by my intimacy with the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit will make you a terror to the kingdom of darkness as He did with the early disciples (Acts 17:6) if you surrender your life to Jesus Christ and build an intimate relationship with Him.
If you are yet to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour, go ahead and pray these prayers: I AM FOR JESUS TODAY.
OPEN HEAVEN 22 APRIL 2025 KEY POINT
The Holy Spirit empowers believers to destroy the works of the devil
OPEN HEAVEN 22 APRIL 2025 HYMN 12:
ONWARD CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS
1. Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before.
Christ, the royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See his banners go!
Refrain:
Onward, Christian soldiers! Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before.
2. At the sign of triumph
Satan’s host doth flee;
On, then, Christian soldiers,
On to victory.
Hell’s foundations quiver
At the shout of praise;
Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise.
3. Like a mighty army
Moves the Church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
Where the Saints have trod.
We are not divided;
All one body we:
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity.
4. Onward, then, ye people;
Join our happy throng.
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song:
Glory, laud, and honor
Unto Christ, the King.
This through countless ages
Men and angels sing.
