Open Heavens 2022
Date: 2022-03-02
Topic: GOD IS SOVEREIGN

Memory Verse: Psalm 115:3 – But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he had pleased. Psalm 115:3
Bible Reading: Daniel 4:34-37

Message: The truth about God’s absolute sovereignty is seen in our Bible reading today. King Nebuchadnezzar declared, “And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me. and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation” (Daniel 4:34).

Our memory verse confirms this truth about our God who is in heaven and does as He pleases. These Scriptures are food for thought for those who would want to live a good life here and in the hereafter. One major lesson here is that God is capable of doing and undoing anything. He can kill and He can make alive. Where then, is the bragging of mere mortals who, by a stroke of grace, are placed in privileged positions and begin to behave like the Almighty?

King Nebuchadnezzar learnt his lesson the hard way, however, God was gracious to him and he lived to tell the story of the consequence of his pride. King Herod was not as fortunate as Nebuchadnezzar because in his arrogance, an angel of the Lord struck him and he was eaten up by worms before dying (Acts 12:21-23).

One then wonders why those in authority tend to act as if they have the power of life and death. Some even wrongly allow themselves to be addressed as if they are truly sovereign like the Most High God. This is the reason some of them refuse to allow Christ to reign in their domain. They would do everything possible to obstruct the gospel. How ignorant they are! The Psalmist says, “The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision” (Psalm 2:2-4).

I can attest to the absolute sovereignty of God in every area of life and that is why I am determined to serve Him for the rest of my days. It would be best if you did the same.

Hymn: O Lord My God! When I In Awesome Wonder
Points: Join me to thank the sovereign Lord for adding another year to my life today. Please pray that I will finish well in the mighty name of Jesus.
Bible in one year: Deuteronomy 20, Deuteronomy 21, Deuteronomy 22, Deuteronomy 23

Title: O Lord My God! When Am in Awesome Wonder.
Chorus: null.

  1. Father, before Thy throne of light,

The guardian angels bends,
And ever in Thy presence bright,
Their psalms adoring blend:
And casting down each golden crown.
Beside the crystal sea,
With voice and lyre, in happy choir,
Hymn glory, Lord, to Thee.

  2. And as the rainbow lustre falls 

Athwart their glowing wings,
While Seraph unto Seraph calls,
And each Thy goodness mgs;
Oh may we feel, as low we kneel
To pray Thee for Thy grace,
That Thou art here, for all who fear
The brightness of Thy face.

  3. Here, where the Angels see us come,

To worship day by day
Teach us to seek our heav’nly home,
And serve Thee e’en as they;
With them to raise our notes of praise,
With them Thy love to own;
Till life’s first flow’r and fullest pow’r,
Be Thine and Thine alone.
