¹⁰⁵ Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

RCCG Open Heaven Daily Devotional MESSAGE

There are times we go in the wrong direction due to our human nature. For example, we had quite a good bargain when we purchased the first four acres of land that has now expanded to become Redemption City.

As time went by, we kept buying more land even though the price was increasing. After we had bought about a thousand acres, some people spoke to me and said, “Why are you buying lands in this bush? There are other things to spend money on,” and I listened to them.

However, one night, God said to me, “Son, who called you? These people or Myself? Who promised you a city instead of a boy’s quarters?”. I woke up and made up my mind to keep buying more land, but by then, what used to be N1,000 had gone up to N50,000.

Today, we have over 40,000 hectares, and we are still buying more. If you are moving in the opposite direction of God’s will for your life, God will step in today and bring you back to the right path, in Jesus’ name. A fellow might have done something terrible in the past which made it impossible for him or her to reach some goals.

An individual can commit a crime and end up with a life sentence. Even though that fellow’s case may seem hopeless, God can step in and turn things around. In Genesis 49:1-7, Jacob, on his deathbed, cursed Levi because of some sins from his past, but God stepped in and allowed Levi to be restored.

In Exodus 32:25-26, Moses returned from the mountain and found out that the children of Israel were dancing naked before an idol. He cried out, “Who is on the side of the Lord? Let him come to me.” Everyone belonging to the tribe of Levi crossed over to Moses and became his army.

God looked down from heaven and said, “That curse on you is cancelled!” Levi missed it earlier, but he got on God’s side and was restored. God can step in to give you hope again. I however have some questions for you: are you on the Lord’s side?

Do you do His will? Are you committed to serving Him alone? If you answered ‘yes’ to these questions, God will step in and bring you back to the path of fulfilling your destiny, in Jesus’ name.

PRAYER POINTS: Father, I am on your side. Please step into my situation and let me fulfil Your plans for my life.

RCCG HYMN What A Wonderful Wonderful Day

1 Oh What A Wonderful Wonderful Day
Day I Will Never Forget
After I’d Wandered In Darkness Away
Jesus My Savior I Met
Oh What A Tender Compassionate Friend
He Met The Need Of My Heart Shadows Dispelling With Joy I Am Telling
He Made All The Darkness Depart

Chorus:
Heaven Came Down And Glory Filled My Soul
When At The Cross The Savior Made Me Whole
My Sins Were Washed Away
And My Night Was Turned To Day
Heaven Came Down And Glory Filled My Soul

2 Born Of The Spirit With Life From Above
Into God’s Fam’ly Divine
Justified Fully Thru Calvary’s Love
Oh What A Standing Is Mine
And The Transaction So Quickly Was Made
When As A Sinner I Came
Took Of The Offer Of Grace He Did Proffer
He Saved Me Oh Praise His Dear Name

3 Now I’ve A Hope That Will Surely Endure
After The Passing Of Time;
I Have A Future In Heaven For Sure
There In Those Mansions Sublime
And It’s Because Of That Wonderful Day
When At The Cross I Believed;
Riches Eternal And Blessings Supernal
From His Precious Hand I Received
