The Topic of Open Heavens for
15th May 2023 Is “Freedom from Financial Captivity”
MEMORISE: Deuteronomy
28:12
The
LORD shall open thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy
land in its season, and to less all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend
unto many nations, and thou shall not borrow.
READ: 2 Kings 4:1-7
Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the
prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest
that thy servant did fear the Lord: and
the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen.
2 And
Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the
house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot
of oil.
3 Then he
said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels;
borrow not a few.
4 And
when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons,
and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which
is full.
5 So she
went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the
vessels to her; and she poured out.
6 And it
came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me
yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil
stayed.
7 Then
she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy
debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.

HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY
There
are people who are bound financially. In Haggai 1:6, the Bible tells us that it
is possible to earn wages into a bag of holes. In other words, the fellow makes
money, but the money keeps on disappearing. There are people who, on sitting to
calculate their income, wonder where the money went. I know what this is like
because before I met the Lord Jesus Christ, I was in this exact position. There
are forces that can make sure that what you are earning is not producing the
result it’s supposed to, but that will end today, in Jesus’ name.
According
to Revelation 3:7, Jesus Christ is the One who has the key of David and what He
opens, no man can shut; what He shuts, no man can open. Today, He will shut the
door against those taking away your money and open the door of blessings for
you, in Jesus’ name. Being in debt is being in captivity but my God can wipe
any amount of debt off in less than twenty-four hours (Proverbs 22:7). One of
my sons came to a Partners’ meeting and I prayed that the next time I would be
seeing him, every debt he was owing would be paid off.
He
said, “Amen”, but found it hard to believe it would happen. Some days later,
the chairman of the bank he owed called him and asked, “How are you going to
pay this your debt?” My son replied, “Sir, even if I’m paying you one million
naira for every day that I have lived on earth, I cannot finish paying and you
know it”. He was over 50 years old. Not long after, the bank wrote off his
debt. If you are in any form of debt right now, I decree that it will be
cleared within the next twenty – four hours, in Jesus’ name.
Sometimes,
it is not just one fellow who is in financial captivity, but the entire family.
Had it not been for God in the Adeboye family, maybe we would still have been
one of the poorest households in my village today. My parents could not afford
to sponsor my education, but the Almighty God somehow got me educated up to the
Ph.D. level, then continued to raise me higher and higher.
Today,
by the special grace of God, the Adeboye family is a blessing to my entire
village. If your family is poor, God will lift you all out of poverty too, in
Jesus’ name.
