OPEN HEAVEN 8 MAY 2023 MONDAY: WHY GOD PROMOTES

OPEN HEAVEN 8 MAY 2023 MEMORIZE: For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. Mark 10:45

OPEN HEAVEN 8 MAY 2023 BIBLE READING MATTHEW 20:20-28

20 Then came to him the mother of Zebedees children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him.

21 And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left, in thy kingdom.

22 But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.

23 And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.

24 And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against the two brethren.

25 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.

26 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;

27 And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:

28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

In the name of Jesus, I receive the grace to excel this new week!

Todayโ€™s Powerful Confession: I Confess today that I am a child of God and have been given the mind of Christ. I am guided by His wisdom and discernment in all my decisions. I do not lean on my own understanding but trust in the Lord with all my heart. I walk in divine favor, and everything I touch prospers. The Lordโ€™s blessings overtake me, and I am a living testimony of His goodness and faithfulness in Jesusโ€™ name, Amen. Hallelujah!

OPEN HEAVEN 8 MAY 2023 MESSAGE

God never does anything without a purpose. He promotes people primarily to fulfill His purpose.

God promotes men so that they can use their promotion to serve and bless others. A tree does not consume its own fruit; it produces fruit for others to benefit from. You donโ€™t become fruitful just for your own self, but rather, so that you can be of service to others.

According to Exodus 2:11-15, Moses was a fugitive. He was running away from Pharaoh because he had just committed murder, but by the time we get to Exodus 7:1, God said, โ€œSee, I have made thee a god to Pharaohโ€ฆโ€. God promoted Moses so that he could deliver the nation of Israel.

How To Pray Effective Midnight Prayers

This is why, in Exodus 14:21-28, God could use Moses to clear a way through the Red Sea for the whole nation. (1 Samuel 16:11-13) tells us that when God wanted to appoint a king in his family, He chose the only one that nobody considered relevant โ€” David.ย 

By the time He had promoted David, one of the reasons for his promotion came up in the next chapter โ€“ God used him to deliver a nation from a terrorist (1 Samuel 17:1-51).

When God promotes a man, it is so that he can help others fulfill their destiny. You can help others become who God wants them to be. This is why I donโ€™t say a word when people criticize us for planting so many Churches because a lot of people would never have discovered their purpose if they were not sent out.

You Need This: 15 Midnight Prayers To Reverse Delayed Destinies

The purpose of Godโ€™s promoting you is to help others become what He planned for them. I pray that you will remember to help others fulfill their destinies when God promotes you.

The Bible says in Ezekiel 22:30 that God sought just one man who would stand between Him and the people so that He would not destroy their nation, but found none. Maybe God is waiting to promote you. If you are willing to help others, God will find you worthy of promotion.

OPEN HEAVEN 8 MAY 2023 HYMN

WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD

1. When we walk with the Lord,
In the light of His word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.

CHORUS
Trust and obey!
For thereโ€™s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

2. Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt nor a fear,
Not a sigh nor a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.

3. Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief nor a loss,
Not a frown nor a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey

4. But we never can prove
The delights of His love,
Until all on the altar we lay,
For the favour He shows
And the joy He bestows
Are for them who will trust and obey.

5. Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet,
Or weโ€™ll walk by His side in the way,
What He says we will do,
Where He sends we will go,
Never fear, only trust and obey.
