Riches Can Disappoint – RCCG Open Heavens Devotional Thursday 8th August 2013: Money
RICHES CAN DISAPPOINT BY PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

Memorise:
Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven. Proverbs 23:5

Read:
Proverbs 23:4-5
(Proverbs 23:4) Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. 

(Proverbs 23:5) Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven. 

Open Heavens Devotional Message
When you make people pay for spiritual services, you paint God in very bad light; you paint Him as one who demands pay for what He has offered freely. Also, whenever people ‘pay’ for the healing, baby, deliverance, promotion, etc. they have received, it will erode their need to be grateful to God. If you go to a car shop and pay for a car, do you continue to thank them? If anything, you will feel that you are doing them a favour buying from them and not from another car shop.

Do you know that when people are cajoled to ‘pay’ for their miracle, the feel like God is either indebted to them or that there is no basis for Him to be appreciated. Moreover, it is those who freely receive a miraculous touch of God that will feel indebted to God and will easily give their lives to Christ. The one who has ‘paid’ might hardly give a thought about yielding his or her life to Christ.

In addition to this, some people are busy chasing after wealth like Gehazi. It is impossible to chase after two rats going in different directions. You can’t catch one of them, how much more the two. Jesus says you cannot serve God and mammon. In other words, the kind of devotion, love and commitment that is required serving God is also required when that fellow chooses to serve money.

However Proverbs 23:5 says unlike serving God, those who pursue money should prepare for disappointment because the wealth they are accumulating can suddenly develop wings and take its flight. If you ask some people what they are seeking after, they may be uncertain but not David. Unlike his son Solomon who sought several things at the same time, David sought one thing. In Psalm 27:4 he says,

“One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.”

He pursued his focus and found Him. What are you seeking? What is uppermost in your heart today? Is it God or wealth?

Bible in one Year:
Psalm 106-108

Key Point
When God gives you true riches, the transcend you to future generations.

Most Essential Health Benefits Gained From Running Regular
Most Essential Health Benefits Gained From Running Regular - Running Woman
The health benefits of running cannot be overemphasized. Running can be done indoors on the treadmill or outside for the natural feel. For the health conscious, regular running is an essential part of their existence, a healthy lifestyle at that. If you want to lower stress in your life, running is a healthy choice. A better

Understanding of the right way to warm up and cool down can add to the health benefits of running. Also get yourself a good pair of running shoes and you are good to go. Running is a smart thing and you even get smarter as you do it because it helps grow new brain cells, makes you a better learner, and boosts memory.

The health rewards of running are long-term when you make it a frequent habit. It’s a medically established fact that all forms of exercise generate more energy for the brain, but research indicates the more aerobically challenging the exercise, the greater the mental payoff. Running falls into this category.

Below is List of Essential Health Benefits Resulting from Running.

Mental Health: During running some chemicals are released which help people fight symptoms of anxiety, depression, and bipolar. A regular running habit will boost your mood and build self-esteem. It also increases your self-confidence or better personal image of yourself as you reach fitness and/or weight loss goals. Feeling happy with who you are, and being satisfied with yourself is the best way to boost your overall mental health.

Healthy Heart: Running is one of the best ways to build healthy heart muscles and increase the amount of blood the heart can pump without over exerting itself. Running is to the heart what effective workout is to the body. By running regularly you can improve circulation, and reduce the risk of a heart attack, high blood pressure and stroke. A healthy heart can increase length and quality of life

Boosts Brain Power: Research reveals that running has a great impact on the hippocampus, the part of the brain responsible for learning and memory. You can increase your mental functions by going running as it boosts blood flow to the brain and helps it receive oxygen and nutrients, making you more productive at work. **That doesn’t mean if you that if you have an SAT test you should go and run 15km instead of studying for your test believing the answers will come to you since you have ran.**

Prevention of High Blood Pressure: Healthy arteries alone cannot prevent high blood pressure. However, getting your arteries to work does. When you run, your arteries expand and contract harder than usual. This allows them to stay just as fit as the rest of your body. Keeping your arteries elasticity up by running, is a great way to maintain a healthy blood pressure. This reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke.

Weight Loss: On the average a runner burns 1,000 calories an hour during a training session. The more you run, the slimmer you get and the faster you run in turn. As you run regular you gaining more muscle which helps you lose weight from fat. Running also helps tighten the skin as the weight comes off. Losing weight greatly reduces the risk of heart attack and other illnesses associated with extra weight.

Physical Strength: Physical strength is one of the most popular reasons for beginning a running routine. Building strength in your lower body, muscles, tendons, and ligaments can greatly reduce the daily effects of fatigue and aging. Building physical strength also helps prevent future injury to muscles and bones due to increased stability.

How Do I Stay Physically Fit With No Motivation To Exercise

Discipline and Personal Control: It takes a disciplined mind to run on a regular schedule. Running regular reduces the effects of many disease processes, the amount of medication needed to control your health, and being able to control these things, gives you a sense of self control. One feels a sense of personal control of one’s destiny and future when you are able to control your own schedule, your own health, etc. This helps boost self-confidence and increases quality of life.

Bubbling Happiness: People who run regularly are often happier than people who don’t. there’s a sense of elation associated with running known as “runner’s high” – it’s the rush of hormones causing a feeling of well-being known as endorphins. Running regularly can also improve patience, humour and ambition, and make you more good-tempered and easy-going.

Stronger Bones: Running frequently taxes your muscles, joints and bones so the bones are stimulated to remain stronger and do not easily weaken with age. High impact sports and activities, such as running, can actually improve your bone mineral density. Osteoporosis is kept at bay.

Increased Joint Strength: In addition to strengthening one’s bones and bone density, the health benefits of running include increasing strength in your leg muscles, tendons and ligaments. Increasing the strength of your tendons and ligaments increases joint strength and stability. Stronger tendons ligaments and joints greatly lower the risk of hip, knee and ankle injuries.

Healthy Beauty Sleep: I can relate totally with this key benefit of running. I always enjoy a healthy beauty sleep when I run. Studies show that runners find it easier to get to sleep at night and sleep longer. Insomnia is kept at bay. A good sleep reenergizes and rejuvenates the body. The body needs rest to function effectively. Because your muscles are less tense you will be more relaxed at night. You will fall asleep faster, sleep deeper and wake up refreshed.

Lowers Effects of Diabetes: A regular running lifestyle can actually help lower the symptoms of diabetes on the body. Research indicates that regular exercise can actually help maintain a healthy blood sugar and reduce diabetic resistance to insulin. Having more manageable blood sugar can increase the types of food you can eat, and decrease the amount of medication you need.

Improved Immune System: Generally runners have a stronger immune system, that means you'll suffer less from minor illnesses such as colds, allergies, fatigue, menstrual discomfort, backache, and digestive disorders. This is partly due to the fact that exercise improves the flow of fluids in your lymphatic system, which means that viruses, bacteria and toxins are filtered from your blood and lymph more effectively.

Reduces Asthma Effects: Studies reveal that by adding a regular running routine to your exercise schedule, an individual can healthily reduce the asthma effects they experience. Also it can reduce the frequency and the severity of your asthma attacks. This is made possible because regular running strengthens your lungs and bronchi over time.

Increases Pain Tolerance: By raising your endorphin level (the natural pain killer in your body) exercise can help alleviate pain such as PMS symptoms and menstruation pain. The deep breathing during exercise encourages more oxygen into your blood circulation and helps to relax the uterus.

Improved Cholesterol Levels: Exercise raises the level of good cholesterol (HDL) compared to bad cholesterol (LDL) and lowers the less healthy fat levels (triglycerides) in your body.

Now that you have read the essential health benefits gained from running regularly, do you want takes advantage of these health benefits or not? They say health is wealth. Don't go chasing wealth at the expense of your health. Start a lasting running regimen today and you will be glad you took this wise decision.

Get Intimate With God – RCCG Open Heavens Devotional Wednesday 7th August 2013
Get Intimate With God – RCCG Open Heavens Devotional Wednesday 7th August 2013
GET INTIMATE WITH GOD BY PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

Memorise:
How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Psalms 119:103

Read:
1 Kings 19:11-13

(1 Kings 19:11) And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:

(1 Kings 19:12) And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

(1 Kings 19:13) And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?

Open Heavens Devotional Message

“While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.”
 2 Corinthians 4:18

Worldly things are temporary while heavenly things are eternal. In other words, earthly things like wealth, material possessions, earthly achievements and goals, position and fame are all for the earth and therefore short lived. One day they shall all cease. On the other hand, spiritual things like things about God and His Kingdom, serving God at whatever capacity, doing God’s will and spiritual goals are heaven bound an have eternal consequences. The average believer is torn between focusing on the physical and the spiritual. Where is your focus today?

Your focus will be determined by your level of spiritual maturity. The joy of growing old in the Lord is that it opens your eye to seeing more of the unseen than what is commonly seen. More intimacy with God gives you a shaper spiritual vision and a keener spiritual audio ability. One of the ways God speaks is through the still small voice according to 1 Kings 19:11-13. To be able to hear Him by this very low voice, you must completely down play noise and seek Him in absolute quietness. This may require you finding a very quiet place for God and you, and He will speak to you. When you deliberately draw closer to God, you will hunger and pant after His Word. You will go beyond reading to studying and digesting God’s sweet Word (Psalm 119:103).

Moreover, how can you prolong your days on earth? This is a function of what you do and what you don’t do. Stop cheating on others! Deuteronomy 25:15 says,

“But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee”.

If you are into manufacturing, and make a product on whose packet you write 10 grams, let it not be less than what you declared. It is your duty to ensure that whatever you use for measurement is right. Do not employ false measure. Some traders would beat in their measuring cans, tins and containers so that they can save something for themselves every time they sell their goods. A true believer in Christ cannot do this because he or she fears God. How honest are you in your dealings?

Bible In One Year:
Psalm 103-105

Prayer Point
Father, as I grow older in Christ, help me move closer to you and be more like you.

Sow Towards Your Next Level – RCCG Open Heavens Devotional Tuesday 6th August 2013, Bible Study
Sow Towards Your Next Level – RCCG Open Heavens Devotional Tuesday 6th August 2013
SOW TOWARDS YOUR NEXT LEVEL BY PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE

Memorise:
Blessed are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth thither the feet of the ox and the ass. Isaiah 32:20

Read:
Isaiah 32:15-20
(Isa 32:15) Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.

(Isa 32:16) Then judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness remain in the fruitful field.

(Isa 32:17) And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.

(Isa 32:18) And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places;

(Isa 32:19) When it shall hail, coming down on the forest; and the city shall be low in a low place.

(Isa 32:20) Blessed are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth thither the feet of the ox and the ass.

Open Heavens Devotional Message
Everyone has a next level. As successful as you may consider yourself to be, there is a level you have not attained, a height you have not climbed, a feat that has not been achieved. No matter how anointed you are, there is a level of anointing you have not reached. The earlier you realise and accept, the better for you. Many people like Moses saw their next level but could not enter in. may you never be a victim of seeing but not possessing your blessing in Jesus name.

To enter your next level, you must be prepared to sacrifice your Isaac. The next level comes by sacrifice. How much are you willing to give to enter into your next level? Similarly, you can enter into your next level by sowing. In Genesis 26:2-14, we see how Isaac entered into his next level through sowing the seed he had at a period of famine. There are seeds and there are fruits. Seeds are meant to be sown while fruits are meant to be eaten. Seeds are for the future while fruits are for today. If you are wise like Isaac, you will never convert the seed that should give you a tomorrow into a fruit that should sustain you for the moment. Isaac virtually starved when he sowed what others should have eaten. He suffered a while but when the yield came, he became greater than the nation which ate their seeds.

Those who sow their seeds will always be greater than those who eat their seeds. In The Redeemed Christian Church of God, there is a track record of meaningful sowing. It is the sowing of the past that has brought us to present location. In Port Harcourt, a woman sowed three of her houses and landed property. Sometimes, some people would empty their pockets for the work of the Lord. I have had to sow my car too. What are you willing to give to move to your next level? If what you are prepared to sow is far from what God expects you to sow, your seed will be unable to deliver your next level.

Bible In One Year:
Psalm 100-102

Key Point
No matter how high you have gone, there is still a height you have not reached.

Similarly, you can enter into your next level by sowing. In Genesis 26:2-14, we see how Isaac entered into his next level through sowing the seed he had at a period of famine. There are seeds and there are fruits. Seeds are meant to be sown while fruits are meant to be eaten. Seeds are for the future while fruits are for today. If you are wise like Isaac, you will never convert the seed that should give you a tomorrow into a fruit that should sustain you for the moment. Isaac virtually starved when he sowed what others should have eaten. He suffered a while but when the yield came, he became greater than the nation which ate their seeds.

Those who sow their seeds will always be greater than those who eat their seeds. In The Redeemed Christian Church of God, there is a track record of meaningful sowing. It is the sowing of the past that has brought us to present location. In Port Harcourt, a woman sowed three of her houses and landed property. Sometimes, some people would empty their pockets for the work of the Lord. I have had to sow my car too. What are you willing to give to move to your next level? If what you are prepared to sow is far from what God expects you to sow, your seed will be unable to deliver your next level.

Bible In One Year:
Psalm 100-102

Key Point
No matter how high you have gone, there is still a height you have not reached.

Wild Goose Chase To The Edge Of Civilization
Wild Goose Chase To The Edge Of Civilization
Wednesday June 19 2013
Last night was feast of sleep. I couldn't just stay up at all. I felt like I was heavily sedated. The supposed drug didn't wear off until about 8:30 in the morning. I wasn't planning to hurry off to work because there is no specific task awaiting me and my boss traveled this morning on a business trip. As my body acclimatized to the daybreak and I began to bask in the euphoria of my momentary freedom, a call came through. It was from David a land agent. My boss gave him my number and he is waiting for me in the office. The fairy tale morning I was having just collapsed. That was when I actually woke up from sleep. I told him I'll be in the office in twenty minutes. I have no human idea where that came from. Of course I can never make it in twenty minutes, unless I use teleportation technology of alien civilization lol. I hurried off to meet them.

I got there 49 minutes later. There were two of them. We were to go inspect a piece of land somewhere at Ajah. I said ok lets go with so much enthusiasm. We filed out with me behind. When we passed all the cars at the car my spirit sank. This not the sort of trip one embarks on public transport, it'll be highly uncomfortable. So the transportation menu to the site was an appetizer trek to the bus stop. The main course was two bus rides. Traffic ambushed the second bus ride. Thanks to the clement weather it would've been messy. Then dessert was bike ride to and back from the edge of civilization literally. The road ended with a big sign board that reads ROAD ENDS HERE. It would seem we embarked on a travel adventure to the end of the world!

Beyond that point was vast virgin land and the supposed site was sandwiched somewhere in there. Naah! This land is not good. There's no access road to the place. We needed a piece of land where we can hit the ground running with our project and not where we will first of all waste time and resource inventing civilization. This is mission impossible, a glaring wild goose chase. We went back. We split at Alesh bus stop, they went to CMS and I went to Lekki. I pick the internet modem from MD's house.

One hour later power went out in the office. It got super boring. A quick nap I took turned into a long sleep. I woke up to pesky persistent bang on the door. Who on earth can it be? It was a DHL delivery man. He delivered one letter for my boss. About twenty minutes later power was restored. I did some research online regarding blogging, I'm still a novice I need to learn more. I closed at normal closing time.
