The Renewal of the Earth Is Coming

The glory of Jehovah will endure forever; Jehovah will rejoice in His works.
Psalm 104:31

The Renewal of the Earth Is Coming
A good way to spoil a beautiful drive through the countryside is to come upon an auto junkyard. All those smashed and rusting hulks of steel were once shining and glorious, a tribute to man's technology and ingenuity. But as soon as they grow old and die, they become a problem for society and a blot upon the landscape.

What a difference with the things that God has created! Have you ever walked through a forest and noticed the remains of trees which have fallen? Over a period of time they become overgrown with moss and other plants to the point where they actually enhance the beauty of the forest floor. Even the process of decay, which ultimately removes them from the scene altogether, enriches the soil and contributes to the ecological environment.

Well might God rejoice in His works! And if it be so in a sin-cursed earth whose ground produces also thorns and briers, what will it be when the creation will be set free from the bondage of corruption? Who can measure the rejoicing of God when He renews the face of the earth—when He causes the wilderness to be glad and the desert to rejoice and blossom as the rose (Isa. 35:1; cf. Acts 3:19-21)?

In anticipation of that glorious time, let us lift our hearts already in the exultant doxology that concludes Psalm 104:

I will sing unto Jehovah as long as I live;

I will sing psalms to my God while I have my being.

My meditation shall be pleasant unto Him;

I will rejoice in Jehovah.

Sinners shall be consumed out of the earth,

And the wicked shall be no more.

Bless Jehovah, O my soul.

Hallelujah!

FASTING IS NECESSARY
Open Heavens
for Thursday, December 26, 2013
by Pastor E.A Adeboye

FASTING IS NECESSARY

To relate with the Holy Spirit, you must be holy. You must also exercise a living faith, pray and fast. Some people will tell you that because had finished the work of salvation, there is no need to fast. To them, fasting is completely needless and is some form of self-inflicted punishment. But they forget that...More
REWARD FOR LABOUR

REWARD FOR LABOUR

Jacob sojourned with Laban and laboured for him for several years. At first, his host was cheating him at every opportunity, and the years of his hard labour were almost in vain. Down the line, God had to intervene to enable Jacob eat the fruit of his labour. For a reader of this devotional, in every area that you...More
HOW PROPHETIC ARE YOUR NAMES?
Open Heavens
for Friday, November 20, 2015
by Pastor E.A Adeboye

HOW PROPHETIC ARE YOUR NAMES?

The name you bear is very important because it serves as your identity and your future may be connected to it. The name a person bears is sometimes indicative of the experiences he or she will encounter in life. Take for instance Moses: this name means "drawn out of water"
