Open Heaven 3rd November,2017: Morning Daily Devotional By Pastor E.A Adeboye.

Topic: UPTURNING BLESSINGS

"And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it."- Joshua 6:18
 Bible Reading: Malachi 2:1-6

Message:
God can bless you by pronouncing a blessing on you, cancelling a curse or even turning a curse into a blessing. It is important to establish at this point that no man can change your blessing into a curse not even the one through whom the blessing was pronounced.
Once the blessing is pronounced, it cannot be taken back. We see a manifestation of this truth In Genesis 27:30-37. After Esau returned from his father’s errand and realised his younger brother had stolen his blessing by


impersonating him, he went to his father and said, “Daddy, what have you done?” Isaac his father replied, l am sorry son, I have already blessed him and he remains blessed.
I didn’t know was blessing the wrong fellow, but l can’t change the blessing now. He is already blessed!” In the Name that is above all names, every blessing that has been pronounced and your family shall come to blessing shall never be reversed in Jesus’ Name!
Every plan of the wicked to upturn your blessings shall fail and meet with disappointment! However, God can change a blessing into a curse.
In 1 Samuel 2:30, God told Eli, “With My mouth, l said that you and your father’s house would stand before Me forever, but now, because of what you have done, I have changed My mind”, and with the same mouth, God cursed Eli and his descendants forever.
In that scripture, the Lord revealed that honouring Him is very crucial. If you want Him to fulfil His promises and beautiful prophecies to you and your family, you must be prepared to honour Him. God will only honour those who honour Him.


I have often told those brethren who attend our monthly Divine Encounter programme that when God asks you to give Him your first fruits, it is not because He in need. It is simply a way of you honouring him. Proverbs 3:9-10 says
“Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the first fruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
Have you been faithful in paying your first fruits? If you pay it faithfully, He will definitely keep His word by bringing His promises to fulfilment in your life. If however you cannot meet His conditions, do not waste your time claiming the promises.
God is a responsible God, and He is the Father of responsible children. If you ignore the commands of your earthly father, it doesn’t show you are responsible. It works the same way with God.

Action Point:
Pray that your blessing will never become a curse.
Please, Share The Word Of God To Others
