MESSAGE: – Open Heaven 19 October 2022 Wednesday Daily Devotional
For the next few days, we will be studying just a few of the benefits we can enjoy from the word of God. Please don’t miss any of the lessons in this series. I pray the Lord will open our eyes and draw us into a deeper understanding of His word in Jesus name.
Our Bible reading today says the word of God brings joy and comfort to a depressed soul. By reading the Bible with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit for interpretation, the realization that you are called by Gods name will come into your heart to remove depression and replace it with joy and rejoicing.
Let us picture an unemployed and depressed young man who suddenly discovers that the president of his country is his father and also that the man has been looking for him. Immediately this young man realises that his surname is about to change to that of the president, every bit of depression and sorrow will disappear from him.
When you read Gods word, you will see in it that you are called by the same name as the Lord God of hosts! He has carefully placed pointers all around the Scriptures to the fact that you are His child and everything that answers to Him answers to you too.
This realization alone is enough to bring joy into the heart of anyone, no matter the challenge they are faced with. When you find the word of God and eat it, it will bring you joy. You don’t find something without searching. You cannot get anything from the word of God if you do not dig deep into it.
You have to search for the treasure in each passage. You have to ask the Holy Spirit to expound His word in your heart. When you have found the word, you will chew and grind that word of God by meditating on it deeply.
Then you will digest it by believing it in your heart so much that it becomes your reality. Until what you found in the word of God becomes your reality, joy and rejoicing cannot come into your heart.
Key Points: – Open Heaven 19 October 2022
If you make it a habit to find and eat the word of God daily, joy will never cease from your heart again.
Open Heaven 19 October 2022 Wednesday Hymn
HYMN 8: I’M PRESSING ON THE UPWARD WAY
1 I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining ev’ry day;
Still praying as I’m onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
Refrain:
Lord, lift me up, and let me stand
By faith, on heaven’s tableland;
A higher plane than I have found,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
2 My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
3 I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught a joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.
4 I want to scale the utmost height,
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till heav’n I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.
