    TOPIC: REAL MEN

    MEMORISE:

    Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
    Romans 5:12

    READ: Genesis 18:16-19

    And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
    17 And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
    18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
    19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

    RCCG OPEN HEAVENS 19 NOVEMBER 2026 TODAY MESSAGE

    Men are at the root of their families. In other words, whatever a man allows into his life will be passed on to every other member of his family. For example, in 2 Kings 5:20-27, Gehazi’s greed brought leprosy upon himself and his descendants. In Daniel 6:24, the men who planned to destroy Daniel were not thrown into the den of lions alone; they were thrown in there with their families. Even if their wives had been strongly against what they did, it did not matter; as long as the men had committed the offence, their entire families suffered for it. This is why men must be very cautious of their actions.

    In today’s memory verse, the Bible says that sin came into the world by one man. However, if you read Genesis 3:6-7, you will see that it was not a man who first sinned but a woman. If you read that Scripture carefully, you will notice that after the woman sinned, she did not realise that they were naked; however, the moment the man also ate the forbidden fruit, their eyes were opened all of a sudden. If you are a man, you must never allow anything that is outside the will of God into your home, even if your wife suggests it. If she insists and sins, the family is not yet in trouble; the man can still intercede for her redemption. The moment you also indulge in that sin, however, you expose your family to the enemy.

    Beloved, God does not define men the way the world defines them. God defines a man by his ability to walk in righteousness, lead correctly, and stand in the gap in prayer for his family. God is looking for men who will influence their generation to be righteous. Unfortunately, many men today are physically present in the home but spiritually absent in the place of prayer. Some are strong in their workplaces but weak at the altar of prayer. Many are successful in business but failing in character. Real men don’t just provide for their families; they lead their children and household to serve God.

    For every man reading this, God will help you to be a man indeed, in Jesus’ name. If you are a woman, please pray for the men in your life, especially your husband and/or father. Pray that God will help them to lead your home aright so they will not allow any form of evil into your family.

    KEY POINT

    Today is International Men’s Day. Please pray that God will continually give all the men around you the grace to lead their families the right way.

    Open Heavens 18 November 2026 Today's Devotional & Commentary

    TOPIC: DELAY IS NOT DENIAL

    MEMORISE:

    And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
    Romans 8:28

    READ: Daniel 10:1-14

    In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, but the time appointed was long: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.
    2 In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.
    3 I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
    4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel;
    5 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:
    6 His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
    7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.
    8 Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
    9 Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground.
    10 And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
    11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.
    12 Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.
    13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
    14 Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.

    RCCG OPEN HEAVENS 18 NOVEMBER 2026 TODAY’S MESSAGE

    Some Christians pray and give God an ultimatum to give them a miracle. They say things like, “God, if you don’t give me this thing by ‘so and so’ date, you will see what I will do!” What can they possibly do to the Creator and Owner of heaven and earth? Anyone who wants to receive a miracle from God must knock on His door with a humble heart. The fact that the answer to a prayer is not forthcoming as expected does not mean that God has not answered it. In today’s Bible reading, God answered Daniel’s prayer from the very first day he began praying; however, the answer was delayed by the prince of Persia. Thankfully, Daniel did not get angry or start saying the wrong things. He stayed in the place of prayer, and eventually, he received God’s answer to his prayers.

    Beloved, if it appears as if your miracle is being delayed, don’t give up; hold on to God. In fact, the Lord is probably already on His way with your miracle. In Mark 5:22-24, Jairus approached Jesus and asked Him to come and lay hands on his daughter, who was sick. However, many people thronged Jesus, leading to a delay in His visit to Jairus’ house. Thankfully, Jairus did not turn around to start insulting Jesus for not giving him a miracle when he was expecting it. Child of God, you might have been attending several programmes and praying for a divine intervention, but it seems as if God has not answered. I want you to know that He has heard, and your answer is on the way. I have realised that many times when a miracle is delayed, it is so that the testimony will be bigger. If Jesus had arrived on time, Jairus’ daughter would have been healed; however, being healed is not as big a miracle as being resurrected from the dead. Lazarus’ name was mentioned in the Bible because he died and was in the tomb for four days before Jesus arrived to raise him from the dead.

    Today’s memory verse tells us that all things work together for good to them that love God. Beloved, delay is not denial. Things may look bad now, but God can see tomorrow already, and He knows that you will emerge victorious. I pray that you will experience a miracle that is so remarkable that the time spent waiting for it will pale in comparison to the joy in your heart.

    KEY POINT

    Sometimes, when a miracle is delayed, God is working out a bigger one.

    TOPIC: PRESERVING GENERATIONS

    MEMORISE:

    One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.
    Psalm 145:4

    READ: Deuteronomy 6:5-9

    And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
    6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
    7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
    8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
    9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.

    RCCG OPEN HEAVENS 17 NOVEMBER 2026 TODAY MESSAGE

    When the devil attacks the child of someone who is doing the Lord’s work, it is because he has discovered that he cannot stop the fellow from doing the work of God, so he tries all he can to prevent the next generation from continuing that work.

    In 2 Kings 4:8-32, I believe the devil recognised that the great woman of Shunem was someone with a large heart. He also saw that she was someone who had the willingness to spend for God, so he planned to make her childless. However, because of her generosity towards Elisha, God’s prophet, the devil’s plan for her life was thwarted, and she gave birth to a son. Despite that, the devil did not stop his schemes over her life; he tried to cut the child’s life short. I believe he took the life of the child because he just couldn’t bear to see the good works of his mother continue. God, however, proved Himself mighty; He used the same prophet Elisha to raise the boy from the dead.

    As a believer, the devil begins to fear whenever your offspring starts to do the things that you are doing for God, and even more. Unfortunately, many believers don’t even train their children to join them in the Lord’s work, let alone continue it when they are gone. Samuel was someone whom God began using from a very young age. He was dedicated to God by his parents as a young child (1 Samuel 1:21-28), and he grew up to be a prophet and a mighty vessel for the Lord (1 Samuel 3). However, the devil saw that he had such a special place in God’s heart and was used mightily by Him. He didn’t want the great works Samuel did for the Lord to be passed on to generations, so he decided to corrupt his children and made them deviate from the ways of the Lord (1 Samuel 8:1-5).

    Beloved, do you have zeal for the Lord’s work, and will your children emulate you? Will they continue in your footsteps and do even greater works for God after you are gone? If you want to preserve your generations, especially in the will of God, you must ensure that your children encounter Jesus. You must invite Jesus into your home so that He can have an encounter with your children. You may not know it, but your children’s personal encounter with God will have a huge impact on their lives.

    PRAYER POINT

    Lord, let my children (born or yet to be born) have an encounter with You that will mark them forever as Yours.

    TOPIC: DIVINE ELEVATION

    MEMORISE:

    He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
    Psalm 40:2

    READ: 1 Samuel 16:1-13

    And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.
    2 And Samuel said, How can I go? if Saul hear it, he will kill me. And the LORD said, Take an heifer with thee, and say, I am come to sacrifice to the LORD.
    3 And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will shew thee what thou shalt do: and thou shalt anoint unto me him whom I name unto thee.
    4 And Samuel did that which the LORD spake, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming, and said, Comest thou peaceably?
    5 And he said, Peaceably: I am come to sacrifice unto the LORD: sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.
    6 And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD’s anointed is before him.
    7 But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.
    8 Then Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.
    9 Then Jesse made Shammah to pass by. And he said, Neither hath the LORD chosen this.
    10 Again, Jesse made seven of his sons to pass before Samuel. And Samuel said unto Jesse, The LORD hath not chosen these.
    11 And Samuel said unto Jesse, Are here all thy children? And he said, There remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse, Send and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither.
    12 And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he.
    13 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. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.

    RCCG OPEN HEAVENS 16 NOVEMBER 2026 TODAY’S MESSAGE

    God can pick someone from prison and make him or her a prime minister on the same day (Genesis 41:14-44). He can pick a beggar from the dunghill and take him or her to the throne.

    He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD’s, and he hath set the world upon them.
    1 Samuel 2:8

    God can bring something out of nothing and also make it overflow. A good example of this is found in Numbers 20:1-11, where the Israelites desired water in the desert, and God caused water to flow out of a rock in abundance. They drank and even had more than enough for their cattle.

    God can also elevate the destitute to a higher level where they will have more than enough for the rest of their lives. God did this in 2 Kings 4:1-2, when he elevated a widow from poverty to a life of abundance. Her late husband’s creditor was about to take her two sons away to be bondmen, but God intervened in her situation through Prophet Elisha, and her story changed for the better. God turned her shame into celebration, and she lived in abundance with her sons. If there is any area of your life where you are currently experiencing shame and sadness, may the Lord intervene and turn your mourning into dancing, in Jesus’ name.

    Today’s Bible reading tells us the story of how God sent Samuel to Jesse’s house to anoint one of his sons as the next king. When Samuel arrived, Jesse presented all his sons, whom he considered eligible. Samuel was on the verge of anointing Eliab, who appeared to be the perfect candidate for the throne, but God stopped him and told him that He had rejected Eliab. Abinadab was presented next, and he was also rejected. After Jesse had presented seven of his sons to Samuel and none of them had been chosen, Samuel asked him if he had any other sons. To show how neglected David was, his father didn’t even remember him until Samuel asked the question. Jesse must have reluctantly sent someone to get David. However, immediately David arrived, God told Samuel to arise and anoint him. I pray that God will locate you wherever you are and single you out for divine elevation, in Jesus’ name.

    PRAYER POINT

    Lord, please single me out for glory, in Jesus’ name.

    TOPIC: BAPTISED WITH FIRE

    MEMORISE:

    I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
    Matthew 3:11

    READ: Malachi 3:1-4

    Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
    2 But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap:
    3 And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.
    4 Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in former years.

    RCCG OPEN HEAVENS 15 NOVEMBER 2026 TODAY’S MESSAGE

    Anyone whom God wants to use as His vessel must be baptised, not only with the Holy Ghost, but also with fire. Fire has many functions, one of which is that it purifies. In Isaiah 6:5, after Isaiah realised how unclean he was, the angel of the Lord used a live coal to touch his lips and said, “This hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged” (Isaiah 6:6-7). Isaiah received a baptism of fire that cleansed him and made him a useful and worthy vessel to carry out God’s assignment.

    Before the apostles were sent out to proclaim the gospel of Christ around the world, Jesus instructed them to wait for the baptism of the Holy Ghost, as we see in Acts 1:4-5:

    And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

    They obeyed this instruction, and they were baptised by the Holy Spirit and fire in Acts 2. This encounter marked the beginning of their exploits for Jesus, starting with Peter’s sermon, which God used to save about 3,000 souls that same day. If you want to be a worthy vessel in God’s hands, you must allow Him to set you apart and baptise you with the Holy Ghost and fire.

    Beloved, God is still looking for vessels He can purify with fire and put to use in His vineyard. Today’s Bible reading tells us that God is a refiner and purifier of those who will serve Him in righteousness. Until the Lord refines you with His fire, your offering cannot be pleasant to Him. Offering in this context means your life. Gold in its raw state is not beautiful, but after it has been purified by fire, it becomes precious. This is why it is called a precious metal. If you don’t want to remain a common vessel in God’s vineyard, ask Him to visit you with His fire. Allow His fire to take away any filth in your life that will not allow you to be useful and precious in His sight. If you really want to be a useful vessel for God, pray today’s prayer point with all your heart.

    PRAYER POINT

    Father, I am ready; please, let Your fire fall on me.

    TOPIC: YOU NEED THE HOLY SPIRIT

    MEMORISE:

    But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
    Acts 1:8

    READ: Judges 15:12-17, Judges 16:16-21

    Judges 15:12-17
    And they said unto him, We are come down to bind thee, that we may deliver thee into the hand of the Philistines. And Samson said unto them, Swear unto me, that ye will not fall upon me yourselves.
    13 And they spake unto him, saying, No; but we will bind thee fast, and deliver thee into their hand: but surely we will not kill thee. And they bound him with two new cords, and brought him up from the rock.
    14 And when he came unto Lehi, the Philistines shouted against him: and the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and the cords that were upon his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire, and his bands loosed from off his hands.
    15 And he found a new jawbone of an ass, and put forth his hand, and took it, and slew a thousand men therewith.
    16 And Samson said, With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jawbone of an ass have I slain a thousand men.
    17 And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place Ramathlehi.

    Judges 16:16-21
    And it came to pass, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, so that his soul was vexed unto death;
    17 That he told her all his heart, and said unto her, There hath not come a razor upon mine head; for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my mother’s womb: if I be shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.
    18 And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once, for he hath shewed me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and brought money in their hand.
    19 And she made him sleep upon her knees; and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.
    20 And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the LORD was departed from him.
    21 But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house.

    RCCG OPEN HEAVENS 14 NOVEMBER 2026 TODAY’S MESSAGE

    Human strength is insufficient to accomplish the work of God. Anyone who attempts to do God’s work by his or her strength will end up being frustrated. Zechariah 4:6 says:

    Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

    When the Holy Spirit is with a fellow, difficult things become easy. In Jeremiah 1:4-10, God told Jeremiah that He had ordained him as a prophet even before he was born. However, Jeremiah thought he could carry out divine assignments by his own strength, so he said, “Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child.” The Lord then rebuked him and told him, “Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD.” Beloved, when the Lord gives you an assignment, rest assured that He will empower you with the strength and resources you need to carry it out. All you have to do is to trust Him with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5).

    In the Bible reading for today, the Holy Spirit came upon Samson, and he single-handedly slew one thousand men with the jawbone of an ass. However, later on in Judges 16:16-21, the same Samson was captured by the Philistines, had his eyes gouged out, and was bound with iron fetters because the Holy Spirit had departed from him. I pray that the Holy Spirit will not depart from your life, in Jesus’ name.

    Today’s memory verse says that when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will receive power. The power of the Holy Spirit in you will then enable you to take the gospel of Christ even to the uttermost parts of the earth. You also need to rely on the Holy Spirit for strength, especially in the place of prayer. Romans 8:26 says, “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.” I pray that the Holy Spirit will strengthen and empower you to do great exploits for the kingdom of God, in Jesus’ name.

    PRAYER POINT

    Holy Spirit, I need You now and always. Please, empower me!

    TOPIC: DIVINE REPOSITIONING I

    MEMORISE:

    Thou hast granted me life and favour, and thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.
    Job 10:12

    READ: Exodus 2:11-23

    And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren.
    12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
    13 And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?
    14 And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known.
    15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.
    16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
    17 And the shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
    18 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so soon to day?
    19 And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock.
    20 And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.
    21 And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
    22 And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange land.
    23 And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.

    To be repositioned means that a fellow had previously been in a particular position until something happened that led to the fellow being removed from that position before being reinstated to his or her original position. Naturally, this is how people are repositioned. When God wants to reposition a person, however, He will remove the circumstances and/or people that caused the person to lose his or her position and place the person on a higher level.

    Today’s Bible reading reveals that Moses became a fugitive due to an incident. He had gone to see his brethren in Egypt, and while he was there, he saw one of them being tormented by an Egyptian and decided to help. In the process, he killed the Egyptian and buried him. The following day, he saw two of his brethren fighting, and he said, “If the enemy is tormenting one of you, we can understand. How can the two of you be tormenting each other?” Then, one of them replied, “Who made you a judge over us? Do you want to kill me the same way you killed that Egyptian yesterday?” Fear gripped Moses as it dawned on him that what he thought was hidden had been exposed, so he fled from Egypt and remained a fugitive for 40 years because Pharaoh wanted to kill him. When the time for his repositioning came, however, Pharaoh died. I pray that God will deal with anyone or anything that has been making life unbearable for you, in Jesus’ name.

    When God repositions you, the next thing you should expect is divine visitation. After Moses ran from Pharaoh, he went to Midian, where he became a shepherd. One day, He moved the cattle he was looking after to Mount Horeb. Typically, grass grows well on plains for goats and sheep to graze on, but because God wanted to do a new thing in Moses’ life, He led him to find pasture for the cattle on a mountain (Exodus 3:1). When the Almighty God wanted to reposition Moses, He ordered his steps to a mountain for an encounter.

    Similarly, when He wants to reposition you, He will visit you and take you to a higher vantage point where you can experience more of His glory and see things more clearly. I pray that the Lord will reposition you for greatness before the end of this year, in Jesus’ name.

    PRAYER POINT

    Dear Lord, in any area of my life I am misaligned with Your will, please visit me and reposition me for greatness, in Jesus’ name.

    TOPIC: LET HIM MAKE YOU

    MEMORISE:

    Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.
    Proverbs 25:4

    READ: Isaiah 6:1-8

    In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
    2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
    3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
    4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
    5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
    6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
    7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
    8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

    RCCG OPEN HEAVENS 11 NOVEMBER 2026 TODAY’S MESSAGE

    There is always a set time for every man. The set time for Joseph came when he was 30 years old (Genesis 41:46), even though he had dreamt of greatness since he was a boy (Genesis 37:5-9). When you read Genesis 40:1-23, you will discover that, despite everything he did in prison, the person who was supposed to help him forgot about him. When his set time came, however, he was remembered. I have good news for you as you read this devotional today: the time for the Almighty God to remember you has come.

    Joseph’s set time eventually came because he allowed God to make him into the kind of vessel that could save people and nations. If he had harboured anger towards his brothers and allowed bitterness to cloud his judgment, his set time would still have come, but it might have met him unprepared. Instead of becoming Joseph the governor, he might have remained Joseph the dreamer if he had not cooperated with God.

    Between a person’s dreams and his or her set time is what I call the time of making, which some people refer to as the time of process. It is a period when God removes everything that will not allow a person to shine when his or her set time comes and replaces them with virtues. For instance, God may remove a person’s impatience and anger and replace them with patience and love. He might remove every tendency to be greedy and selfish and work out integrity and faith in the fellow. When you find yourself in a season of making, don’t fight God; rather, cooperate with Him. Allow Him to purge you of every dross so that you can become a fine vessel.

    Today’s Bible reading tells us about Isaiah’s encounter with God. Even though he went into God’s presence filthy, he didn’t leave there filthy; he was purified. When the seraphim brought a live coal towards him to put it on his lips, he didn’t object. He willingly allowed the Lord to purify and prepare him for the next phase of his assignment. Sometimes, people don’t cooperate with God, and this makes them go around in circles for a long time.

    Beloved, when God reveals an aspect of your life that needs redress, submit to Him and allow Him to work on that area. When you allow God to work on you, He will make you a worthy vessel He can use.

    PRAYER POINT

    Dear Lord, I cooperate with You today. Please make me and purify me for Your glory.

    TOPIC: HE NEEDS YOUR RESOURCES

    MEMORISE:

    Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
    Malachi 3:10

    READ: 1 Kings 17:8-16

    And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,
    9 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.
    10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
    11 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.
    12 And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.
    13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.
    14 For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.
    15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.
    16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.

    Jesus gave Himself for us; hence, we should be willing to give our resources to Him. If you are a child of God, you must make up your mind to serve God with everything He has given to you. If He is really the source of everything you own, then you should not hold anything back from Him. Apostle Paul is a good example of someone who understood that his life and all he had were no longer his, but Christ’s. He expressed this clearly in Galatians 2:20:

    I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

    As a child of God, the life you live is no longer yours. Jesus ransomed you with His blood, so nothing should be too much for you to release to Him. In today’s Bible reading, a grievous famine struck the land, and God sent Elijah to a widow in Zarephath to sustain him during the famine. One would have thought that the widow Elijah was going to meet would be a rich woman, but the opposite was the case. She was so poor that all she had was just a meal for herself and her son, yet God asked her to let it go. Despite her limited resources, when Elijah asked her to make him a meal, she was willing to do so. Her willingness and readiness to surrender all made God multiply what she had. God doesn’t just use people without rewarding them. When you give Him your resources, He will bless you beyond your wildest imagination. There is nothing you give to the Lord that will remain the way it is; it will be multiplied, and others will be blessed through you. My wife and I are a living testimony of this truth.

    Beloved, when God asks for your resources, count it a privilege because He owns everything (Psalm 24:1). Haggai 2:8 says that the silver and gold are His. Psalm 50:10-12 also says that the whole world belongs to Him. If the Almighty God, who owns the world and its fullness, asks you to use your resources for His work, He is setting you up for great blessings. He owes no man, and those who willingly use their resources for Him become partakers of His endless resources.

    REFLECTION

    Are you using your resources for the Lord’s work?

    TOPIC: HE NEEDS YOUR LEGS

    MEMORISE:

    And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
    Romans 10:15

    READ: Matthew 28:18-20

    And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
    19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
    20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

    RCCG OPEN HEAVENS 9 NOVEMBER 2026 TODAY MESSAGE

    God needs the legs of believers so that they can take the gospel all over the world. In today’s Bible reading, Jesus’ instruction was: “Go ye therefore…” True children of God cannot just sit in their comfort zones and think it’s the best they can do to serve God. If you are a worker in your local church, that is good; however, that’s still your comfort zone. Have you ever gone on a mission trip before? Have you ever shared the gospel with prisoners? Have you ever visited an orphanage to share the love of Christ with orphans? Have you ever visited slums to preach the gospel to the indigent and downtrodden? If you answered ‘Yes’ to some or all of these questions, may I ask how long ago you did those things or how often you do them? God needs your legs to carry Him to these places and help draw the people there to Him.

    Romans 1:16 says, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

    John 4:5-29 tells us the story of the Samaritan woman who encountered Jesus by the well. After Jesus shared the good news of salvation with her, the Bible says that she went on her way into the city to tell all the men there, “Come, see a man, which told me all the things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?” She immediately put her legs to good use in spreading the gospel. God wants you to do the same; your legs should spread the gospel.

    I recall an elderly man I met in Papua New Guinea who was filled with joy after hearing the gospel. With joyful tears in his eyes, he held my hand and said, “Thank you for travelling this distance to bring the joy of salvation to me.” Nothing gives more satisfaction than being the reason someone is going to heaven rather than hell. The Bible says that there is joy in heaven over any sinner who repents (Luke 15:7).

    Beloved, the Lord wants you to use your legs to proclaim the joy of salvation to those who are in darkness. Acts 13:47 says, “For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.”

    REFLECTION

    Are you putting your legs to good use for the spread of the gospel?
