Open Heavens Daily Devotional 29th July 2017 Message:
The reason why many people pray without getting answers is because their prayers are actually directed to men instead of God.
Today, many people seeking for jobs, contracts, spouses or admission into academic institutions prefer to ask for help
from those they believe can assist them instead of going to the true source of help: God.

The truth about receiving help from man is that men are most unreliable, limited in resources and ability and can be swayed by situations and circumstances. Where do you channel your requests to?
In 2 Kings 6:26, a woman in dire need cried to the king for help, and the king responded to her cry
with these words:
“…If the LORD do not help thee, whence shall
l help thee? out of the barnfloor, or out of the winepress?” 2 Kings 6:27.

This king recognised that God is the true source of help we all need. No wonder David, in today’s Bible reading, said that he would look up to the source of
his help: God. Who is your helper? To whom do you turn or run for help in time of need? God is the true Helper because He is the All-Sufficient God.
He is turn or run for help in time of need? God is the true Helper because He is the All-Sufficient God. He is the creator and owner of the earth and everything in it (Psalm 24:1).
He has all the ability, knowledge and power, and so He can do anything, answer any question and solve all problems.

Ecclesiastes 5:8 says He is higher than everyone and everything, and so He is above all. Psalm 91:1 calls Him the Most High.
He is also the most influential, because the mention of His Name compels everything and everyone else to bow to Him (Philippians 2:9-11).
He is so powerful that with just a simple statement, the toughest of requests is granted (Psalm 33:8-9) His word is final on any issue, hence, you do not need to accept any negative verdict from any other source (Lamentations 3:37).

He stands as the Universal Judge who can upturn any judgment as He pleases in favour of those He loves.
It is a great privilege to have access to this God, table requests before Him and receive answers to our requests.
If you find it difficult to make your requests known to God, it is obvious that you do not know Him, or you are proud.
From now on, make it a habit to praise and worship Him and thereafter make your requests known to the true Helper (Philippians 4:6) He will help you today.
Hymn: Sing Hymn 4
