OPEN HEAVEN 8 MAY 2025 THURSDAY: WHEN GOD WANTS TO BLESS
OPEN HEAVEN 8 MAY 2025 MEMORISE: And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. Job 42:10
OPEN HEAVEN 8 MAY 2025 READ: Job 42:10-17
10 And the Lord turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.
11 Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house: and they bemoaned him, and comforted him over all the evil that the Lord had brought upon him: every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one an earring of gold.
12 So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
13 He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14 And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.
15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
16 After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, even four generations.
17 So Job died, being old and full of days.

OPEN HEAVEN 8 MAY 2025 MESSAGE
When God really wants to bless someone, He will go to any length to bless the fellow.
In Job 1:8, God asked the devil if he had considered Job. You would think that God just wanted to boast about Job, but by the time you get to the end of Job’s story, you will realise that God was looking for an avenue to bless him with double the things he had already, as we see in Job 42:10: “…the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.”
God wanted to bless Job, but He also wanted him to pass through a process that would prove that he was deserving of the blessing.
In Genesis 32:24-29, the Bible tells us that Jacob was left alone to wrestle with a Man until the break of the day.
When the Man (who was actually a representation of God) could not defeat him, He touched his leg and dislocated it. Jacob kept wrestling, and the Man had to beg him to let him go.
However, Jacob said that he would not do so until he received a blessing, which he eventually got. Clearly, it was an arrangement made by God, as Jacob could ordinarily not have overpowered the man.
When God wants to bless you, He can do certain things that seem strange and might not make sense to you or anyone around you.
I pray for you today that God will intentionally determine to bless you in this season, in Jesus’ name.
When God wanted to bless me, He led me to a small church in a little corner of Ebute Metta in Lagos, Nigeria.
At that time, I was the most educated person in the church, the church auditorium was uncomfortable, and really, I had every reason not to stay.
My spiritual father did not go to school, but I was a PhD holder! It looked as if it was only the church that was benefitting from my presence there, but in truth, I was the one who was to benefit by staying where God asked me to stay so that I could fulfil my destiny.
When God wants to bless you, the ingredients He will put together to prepare that blessing may not look like it, but if you cooperate with Him, at the end of the day, you will enjoy His blessings in abundance.
If you are willing to submit to His process, He will use every opportunity to decorate your life with His blessings.
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 8 MAY 2025 KEY POINT
Submit yourself to God’s process, and He will decorate your life with His blessings.
