OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL. MONDAY 19 OCTOBER 2015.
THEME : WHEN HELP IS VOLUNTEERED.
MEMORISE : Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give
you the kingdom. LUKE 12 : 32.
READ : ESTHER 5 : 1 – 3.
1 Now it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on her royal apparel,
and stood in the inner court of the king’s house, over against the king’s
house: and the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against
the gate of the house.
2 And it was so, when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court,
that she obtained favour in his sight: and the king held out to Esther the
golden sceptre that was in his hand. So Esther drew near, and touched the top
of the sceptre.
3 Then said the king unto her, What wilt thou, queen Esther? and what is thy
request? it shall be even given thee to the half of the kingdom
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR : NUMBERS 28 – 29 AND GALATIANS 1.
MESSAGE
After Esther touched the sceptre of a mere mortal king, death was turned into
life for her; how much more will great things happen to those who touch the
sceptre of the King of kings. I can assure you that lots of transformational
changes await those who can touch the sceptre of the Most High God – the Lord
Jesus Christ. I was once invited to a Full Gospel Business Men Fellowship
meeting in Port Harcourt (South-South Nigeria). I was asked to speak on “The
New Anointing”; so I told them what the anointing can do in the life of a man.
At the end of the message, virtually everyone wanted to touch the man of God.
I had to be smuggled out of the hall where the meeting held. As we drove off, a
very desperate woman ran towards the car with her handkerchief and rubbed it
against the car and said, “There is power here now”, and she went home.
Unknown to her, while she was away, one of her sisters had gone completely
insane. It was so serious that it took six men to hold her down. When she got
home and saw what was happening, she asked them to make way for her,
because she had power in her hands. She simply laid the handkerchief on the girl
and she became normal instantly.
In addition, after Esther touched the sceptre, the king asked her, “My queen,
what can I do for you?” Normally, when you approach a highly placed individual
for a favour, you should be the one to ask for help. But in this case, we see the
king volunteering help to Esther. This tells us that when your day of favour
dawns, the Almighty God will volunteer to help you. Furthermore, we see that
the volunteered assistance was very significant. The king offered to give
Esther up to half of his kingdom. If she had asked for it, she would have gotten
it. When your day of favour dawns, God will be ready to grant your request, no
matter how big, difficult or how impossible it may sound. This season, the Lord
will volunteer to help you. He will give you an open cheque, saying “My child,
just ask anything you want and I will do it!” During this season of your favour,
your request shall not be grievous to God. Even when you are at a loss over
what to ask, the Lord will lead you to ask right by His Spirit.
“Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we
should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us
with groanings which cannot be uttered.” Romans 8 : 26.
PRAYER POINT :
Father, You know my needs more than I do, please meet all of my needs today.
