Message Open Heavens Daily Devotional January 23, 2025
If Christ is in you, your hope is glory (Colossians 1:27). No matter who you are, as long as you have Christ in you, you can open God’s glory. Today’s Bible reading says that while it will be well with the righteous, it shall be ill With the Wicked.
No matter your past, as long as you have accepted Jesus Christ as your lord and savior and you are living according to His will, you have been made righteous, and it will be well with you. Those who aren’t born again cannot be righteous; God sees them as wicked (John 318-21), and He has said that is shall not be well with them (Isaiah 3:11).
I always tell my children at the beginning of each year, “it’s going to be well with me this year”. I know this because the one who said that it shall be well with the righteous never discriminates. What he says to one, He says to all (Mark 13:37).
God is not a man that he should lie; when He says something, He will do it (Numbers 23:13). When He makes a promise and you meet the conditions of that promise, you will receive it at the appointed time. The promise of a glorious tomorrow for you, according to Colossians 1:27, is conditional, and the condition is that Christ must be in you. Those who refuse to be connected to Jesus cannot see his promises fulfilled.
A man once asked me to tell him about his future, and I replied, “That is easy. Are you born again?” he answered, “No”. I then told him that his future will be terrible. He said “how do you know? You don’t even know me; neither do you know my name. You’ve not even prayed.” I then said, “That is unnecessary. Isaiah 3:11 says ‘woe to the wicked, for it shall be ill with him.’”
Then he said, “what if I said I am born again?” I replied, “I would have told you that your tomorrow will be all right.” He then said, “what if I am willing to be a child of God now?” I replied, “Your tomorrow will be alright.”
God is not a respecter of persons (Romans 2:11); no matter your background; His word is true for everybody.
Key Point Open Heavens Daily Devotional January 23, 2025
Irrespective of your background you can be assured of a glorious future if you surrender your life completely to Christ.
Hymn Open Heavens Daily Devotional January 23, 2025
1 In Christ alone, my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
2 In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
‘Til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live, I live
3 There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
4 No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
Bible in One Year: Exodus 24-27
