OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL
DATE: TUESDAY 9TH JUNE 2026
TOPIC: START FROM YOUR JERUSALEM
MEMORIZE:
"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 (KJV)
BIBLE READING: LUKE 16:10-11
10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
MESSAGE:
Many Christians profess that they are the light of the world, which is good because it is the mandate that Jesus gave his followers in Matthew 5:14. However, many of them have not even allowed the light of Christ to shine in their homes, nor have they preached the gospel of Christ to anyone around them. Do you know that if every Christian took it upon themselves to win their hometown to Christ, the whole world could have been saved by now?
When Jesus Christ stepped into my life, He not only used me to greatly extend the reach of His light in my village, Ifèwàrà, but He also used me to bring the name of my village to the world. Today, the people of Ifèwàrà are glad that Adeboye is from there because they are enjoying the benefits of the light of Christ. Believe me, the development of your hometown rests on your shoulders as a Christian because when you allow God's light to shine there, the whole world will begin to take notice of the town. No one can ignore light.
When Jesus gave His disciples the mandate to go out and be witnesses to all nations, He told them to start from Jerusalem, then move to Judea and Samaria before taking over the uttermost parts of the earth (Acts 1:8). God's plan is always that we should start from our 'Jerusalem'. Beloved, your Jerusalem is your family and immediate community. Tell your family members about Jesus. Preach to your neighbours. Let them see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. Your witnessing will not be effective if you want to start from the uttermost parts of the earth. In fact, God will not give you access to the ends of the earth until you have proven yourself faithful in your Jerusalem. He said that He will only commit more into the hands of the fellow who has been faithful in little (Luke 16:10). If you despise your little corner, God will not commit bigger territories into your hands.
Beloved, ask the Lord how you can be more faithful in your Jerusalem. Ask Him to show you how to shine His light before your immediate family effectively. Allow Him to teach you how to show the love of Christ to your neighbours and colleagues at work. May God shine His light through you to your family members, colleagues, members of your community, and the world at large, in Jesus' name.
REFLECTION:
Do you reflect God's love to your family members, neighbours, and colleagues?

HYMNAL 12 - ONWARD, CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS!
1. Onward, Christian soldiers! Marching as to war,
Looking unto Jesus,
Who is gone before;
Christ, the Royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See His banners go.
CHORUS:
Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
Looking unto Jesus,
Who is gone before.
2. At the name of Jesus
Satan's host doth flee; On then, Christian soldiers On to victory! Hell's foundations quiver At the shout of praise: Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise.
CHORUS:
3. Like a mighty army
Moves the Church of God: Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod.
We are not divided, All one body we One in hope and doctrine, One in charity.
CHORUS:
4. Crowns and thrones may
perish Kingdoms rise and wane; But the Church of Jesus
Constant will remain: Gates of hell can never 'Gainst that church prevail; We have Christ's own promise And that cannot fail.
CHORUS:
5. Onward then, ye people,
Join our happy throng;
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song: "Glory, praise and honour, Unto Christ the King", - This, through countless ages, Men and angels sing.
