Message Open Heavens Daily Devotional February 12, 2025
Many secret societies promise people riches, power, and other good things of life. If you have been invited to join such a group, I advise you to run because all their promises are lies, and once you join, you will realise that it is a trap of the devil and it is usually almost impossible to leave. You will also find out that the devil will demand your soul in exchange for the glittering things that were used to lure you in. These things, however, cannot measure up to your soul, as shown in today’s memory verse.
Yes, your friends might already be making so much money than you thought possible. They will tell you they are enjoying life and might even be calling you a fool for not joining them in doing things that God does not approve of.
Beloved, I can tell you for a fact that they are only pretending as most of them wish they never joined in the first place because the prices they have paid outweigh the benefits they claim to enjoy. Why trade your soul for things that have no eternal value? Only God’s blessings make people rich without adding sorrow, heartache, or trouble.
The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it. Proverbs 10:22
The devil doesn’t give anyone free things. If he gives riches, he will take things that money cannot buy, including children, health, peace of mind, and the destinies of future generations. Like Esau who sold his birth right for a plate of porridge and later lost his true blessings, those who chase after riches from ungodly sources and evil associations become short-changed eventually. They inherit sorrow at the end of the day.
Our Father’s ultimate desire is to give His children all things richly to enjoy (1 Timothy 6:17). He gives His children the power to make wealth, but the condition is that they remember and acknowledge Him in all their ways.
But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
Deuteronomy 8:18
Beloved, when you seek God first, He will add every other thing you need to live a successful life (Matthew 6:33). God’s ways of making people rich might not be as fast as many people desire, but His ways are sure, proven, and everlasting.
