OPEN HEAVEN 26 JANUARY 2022 BIBLE READING LUKE 24:13-31

13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.

14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.

16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.

17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?

19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:

20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.

21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.

22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;

23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.

24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.

25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:

26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?

27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.

29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.

30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.

31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.


Welcome beloved. We are so happy to have you join us in today’s devotional.
God is still blessing us through the “let there be light” series devotional. Light gives sight. When light is introduced into a situation, you begin to see everything you couldn’t see before.

Today, we learn about God’s light and its ability to make man see. May God’s Word perform its mighty works in your life in Jesus name.

Today’s Powerful Confession: I confess today the light of God shines on me I will lead a purposeful and profitable life in Jesus name, Amen Hallelujah!

OPEN HEAVEN 26 JANUARY 2022 MESSAGE:

The words, “Let there be light” could mean “Lord, open my spiritual and physical eyes”. To the physically blind fellow, it means “Lord, let me be able to see”. To the spiritually blind, it means “Lord, open my spiritual eyes so that I may begin to see the invisible”.

The Psalmist wrote, “Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law” (Psalm 119:18). This did not mean the Psalmist was physically blind; rather, he knew that he could only see the depth of the Lord’s will for his life in the word of God when his spiritual eyes were open.

Some people may be doing wrong thing without knowing and they would think they are on the right path (Proverbs 16:25). This is so common among the religious and intellectuals.

The case of Saul of Tarsus who became Paul the Apostle is a classic example of this (Acts 9:1-6). The story in our memory verse today points to the darkness of physical blindness. People shouted Bartimaeus down because he could not see.

A blind man may be subjected to unwarranted harassment, even from those very close to him, probably because they feel he is a burden to them, slowing them down.

In this story, it was those people who were scrambling to catch a glimpse of the Miracle-Worker – Jesus Christ, that were harassing him. However, the man refused to be intimidated.

The Bible says that the more they shouted him down, the louder he shouted back – eventually drawing the attention of Jesus Christ to himself.

Shout back to the devil today and call on the Light to shine upon you in order to receive your sight-whether physical or spiritual.

Another lesson from this story is the fact that Jesus asked the blind beggar what he actually wanted. The Lord needed to hear him open his mouth to seek His help.

Go ahead, open your mouth and pray about any problem you have today. The Father of lights will beam His light upon the situation in Jesus’ name and you will be victorious.

Spiritual blindness is a terrible form of darkness. In our Bible reading today, two of the disciples were so spiritually blind that they did not recognize their Lord until the light shone on them.

When the light of God shines on you, despair disappears, strength is regained and joy unspeakable would become your portion. Praise the Lord.

4. Deeper, higher, evry day in Jesus,
Till all conflict past,
Finds me conquror, and in His own image
Perfected at last.
