TODAY’S OPEN HEAVENS: OPEN HEAVENS 23 MAY 2020
MESSAGE
The one who can worship God is the one who God will call a man after His own heart.
For me, the best benefit of worshipping God is God Himself coming down to meet with you. John 4:23 says:
“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the
Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship Him.“
While others may be seeking the face of God to tell Him their needs, God is the one who is seeking those who will worship Him.
For example, King Solomon in 2 Chronicles 1:6 worshipped God with 1,000 burnt offerings and did not make any requests, but God Himself came to seek him in the middle of the night, telling him to ask for whatever he wants.
I think I prefer God asking me to tell Him whatever I want than me going to Him
with requests. l want you to make worship your lifestyle as from today.
Those who worship God are never in want of a miracle because they experience miracles every day. People see me and say God answers my prayer by fire.
Well, it is because if I am to pray for one hour, I could spend 55 minutes worshipping Him, so by the time I am done, He will be the one asking me for what I want and then as I make the request, He answers immediately.
KEY POINT
Worship God for at least one hour today and make this a lifestyle.
HYMN
TO GOD BE THE GLORY, GREAT THINGS HE HATH DONE
1. To God be the glory, great
things He hath done,
So loved He the world
that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an
atonement for sin,
And opened the life gate
that all may go in.
CHORUS
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father,
Through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory,
Great things He hath done.
2. Oh, perfect redemption,
the purchase of blood,
To every believer the
promise of God3;
The vilest offender who
truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a
pardon receives.
3. Great things He hath taught us,
Great things He hath done,
And great our rejoicing
through Jesus the Son;
But purer, and higher, and
greater will be
Our wonder, our transport,
when Jesus we see.
