MESSAGE: – Open Heaven 2 January 2021 Saturday Daily Devotional

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. Psalm 100:4. The above passage says that when you are coming to God, you are to come with thanksgiving- not with grumbling and complaining but with thanksgiving.

This means that if you don’t come with thanksgiving, then he can decide not to open his gates for you. Many people prayers do not get answered because all they do is complain and murmur to God. You are complaining you have no car when someone else has a car but cannot rise from his sick bed.

You are complaining that you have no shoes when someone else has no legs. Just give thanks. No matter what you are going through, there are millions of people around the world going through worse situations. Make a habit of always thanking God for what you have. There are some little things we often take for granted.

One day, my wife called to check on a sick person we had been praying for. After the phone call, she told me the fellow said “Help me thank God that I was able to wear my clothes by myself today“.

Even I the General Overseer had never thought of thanking God for the ability to dress up by myself. Don’t put your attention on the things that you don’t have, rather, put it on all the great things that God is already doing for you. God enjoys being with people who are full of thanks and praises of His name, but He detests murmurers.

In 1 Corinthians 10:10, the Bible says that when the Israelites murmured, they were destroyed: Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. Joseph for instance, never murmured against God, even while in slavery and in prison.

Thus, he fulfill destiny and prospered because the Bible says God was with him (Genesis 39:2-3). You want God to help you through all your challenges in life and lead you to a glorious future? Thank him at all times.

Key Point – Open Heaven 2 January 2021

Spend at least thirty minutes thanking God today. Don’t ask for anything, just thank him. 

OPEN HEAVEN 2 JANUARY 2021 HYMN

NOW THANK WE ALL OUR GOD

1. Now thank we all our God,
With hearts, and hands and voices;
Who wondrous things hath done,
In Whom His world rejoices;
Who, from our mother’s arms,
Hath bless’d us on our way
With countless gifts to love
And still is ours to-day.

2. O may this bounteous God
Through all our life be near us,
With ever-joyful hearts
And blessed peace to cheer us,
And keep us in His grace
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next.

3. All praise and thanks to God
The Father now be given,
The Son, and Him who reigns
With them in the highest heaven
The One, Eternal God,
Whom earth and heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.
