Powerful Declaration for Open Heaven 1 August 2024

Open Heaven for Today 1 August 2024 MESSAGE:

God does not give miracles to proud people. I have noticed that everyone who got a miracle from Jesus approached Him in humility.

The leper in Matthew 8:2-3 worshipped Him, the centurion in Matthew 8:5-10 didn’t send a messenger but came personally to ask Jesus to heal his servant, and the woman in Matthew 15:22-28 was practically insulted by Jesus when He likened her to a dog, but she took no offence.

On the other hand, everyone who would have gotten a miracle from Jesus but didn’t, exhibited pride in one way or the other, especially the people of His hometown (Matthew 13:54-58). The Bible says that He was only able to do a few miracles there.

Naaman almost died a leper because of pride.

He went to the prophet for healing and was told to go and wash in River Jordan. He got angry and wanted to return to his country to die as a leper because he thought that a man of his calibre should not wash in the Jordan River.

Thank God for his servants who talked sense into his head.

Sometimes, God will give me an instruction that sounds childish during our Holy Ghost Services.Because I am a child in His hands, I will tell the people what He says, and those who are not too big to obey the childish instruction will come back to testify about how they got their miracle after obeying Him. One time, God told me to call out all those who had back pains and dance around them.

That was a very childish thing to do, but I obeyed, and when I was done, their back pains had disappeared, and they could all bend over to touch their toes conveniently.

If you are too proud to submit to a man of God, you cannot get a miracle through him. If you are too big to carry out an instruction because it seems beneath your social status, you cannot get a miracle.

You must humble yourself before the Most High God if you want to enjoy His miracles. It amazes me that people consult doctors in humility, answering all their questions and surrendering their bodies for examination and treatment, but when they come to God, they act proudly as if they know more than Him.

KEY POINT:

If you want a miracle from God, you must put your pride aside and come to Him as a child.

OPEN HEAVEN 31 JULY 2024 BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 64-66

I Need Thee Every Hour

1 I need Thee ev’ry hour,
Most gracious Lord;

Stay Thou nearby;
Temptations lose their pow’r
When Thou art nigh. [Refrain]
