 OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL  2022.


DATE: THURSDAY FEBRUARY 10TH, 2022


TOPIC: THE WIND OF CHANGE


MEMORISE:


“Then said he unto me, prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.” – (Ezekiel 37:9)


READ: Exodus 14:21-28 (KJV)


MESSAGE:

The wind of change is a term commonly used to describe breakthroughs and blessings of great significance. However, it has a much deeper meaning in Christendom. The wind is an invisible force endowed with the capacity to accomplish unbelievable things. A seemingly harmless wind could become highly empowered to bulldoze anything in its path when it graduates into a storm.


The wind therefore symbolises the move of God. It is usually called into action whenever God wants to accomplish great things. In Exodus 14:21 “...the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land and waters were divided”.  In Numbers 11:31 “...there went forth a wind, from the Lord and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as it is were a day’s journey on this side, and as it were a day’s journey on the other side, round about the camp and as it were two cubit high upon the face of the earth”. Also, in Ezekiel 37:9, the Lord commanded Ezekiel saying, “...Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the  Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.” In Verse 10, Ezekiel said, “So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army”.


It is therefore clear from the above examples that when the wind of God blows, there will be a way where there was none, as it happened in Exodus 14:21-28. There will be restoration of life according to Ezekiel 37:5-10, and there will be abundant provision as seen in Numbers 11:31. Also, there will be deliverance in line with Acts 16:26, and divine promotion as in (1 Samuel 16:12-13): “...And the Lord said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he. Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward...”


The wind of God can, however, produce negative results for disobedient people, as seen in Jonah 1:1-2. As you surrender your life to God in holiness and righteousness, in total obedience to His commandments, He will cause wind of change to blow in your favour, in Jesus’ name.


PRAYER POINT:

Father, please let the wind of change blow in my favour today, in Jesus' name.

HYMNAL:

Hymn 16 - O God, our help in ages past


1.  O God, our help in ages past, 

Our hope for years to come, 

Our shelter from the stormy blast, 

And our eternal home. 


2.  Under the shadow of Thy throne 

Thy saints have dwelt secure ; 

Sufficient is Thine arm alone, 

And our defence is sure. 


3.  Before the hills in order stood, 

Or earth received her frame, 

From everlasting Thou art God, 

To endless years the same. 


4.  A thousand ages in Thy sight 

Are like an evening gone ; 

Short as the watch that ends the night 

Before the rising sun. 


5.  Time, like an ever-rolling stream, 

Bears all its sons away ; 

They fly forgotten, as a dream 

Dies at the opening day. 


6. O God, our help in ages past, 

Our hope for years to come, 

Be Thou our guard while life shall last,

And our eternal home.
