OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL
DATE: WEDNESDAY 24TH JUNE 2026
TOPIC: ARE YOU PLANTED AND SERVING?
MEMORIZE:
"Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God." Psalm 92:13 (KJV)
BIBLE READING: ACTS 13:1-3
1 Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
2 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.
3 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
MESSAGE:
In Luke 12:7, Jesus said that the strands of hair on your head are numbered. If God is so meticulous about the number of hair strands on your head, then your decision of where to fellowship with other believers greatly matters to Him. Therefore, it is important for you to seek God's face for guidance in choosing the local assembly where you will fellowship with other believers.
Isaiah 61:3 says:
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.
You are the planting of the Lord, so He knows best where you should be planted so you can flourish according to His will and to His glory. Today's Bible reading makes us understand that Paul and Barnabas attended the church at Antioch. It was while they were there that the Holy Spirit commissioned them into ministry. There was a church in Jerusalem and another at Samaria at that time, but God spoke to them in the church at Antioch. They were planted in their local assembly, and that was why God sent His word to them there.
Child of God, it is, however, not enough to know the church God wants you to attend; it is also crucial to be rooted and fully involved there. Seeds grow when they fall to the ground and die. In John 12:24, Jesus said that except a corn of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it abides alone, but if it dies, it produces much fruit. Some Christians hop from church to church because they don't see the necessity of being planted in a local assembly; however, God can hardly bless them that way. Some others attend church regularly but are not involved in serving within a department or ministry. Such believers are out of the church building as soon as the service ends.
Beloved, only seeds that are planted can grow and bear fruit. Believers cannot enjoy the fullness of God's blessings if they are not planted and serving in the local assembly God wants them to be because only those who are planted in the house of the Lord truly flourish (Psalm 92:13). I pray that the Lord will establish your feet in His vineyard and shower you with manifold blessings, in Jesus' name.
REFLECTION:
Have you allowed God to plant you in His vineyard, and are you serving there?

AUTHOR: PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE
HYMNAL 28 - GUIDE ME, O THOU GREAT JEHOVAH
1. Guide me, O Thou Great Jehovah Pilgrim through this barren land; I am weak, but Thou art mighty,
Hold me with Thy powerful
hand: Bread of heaven! Bread of heaven! Feed me now and evermore (2ce)
2. Open Thou the crystal fountain,
Whence the healing stream
doth flow: Let the fiery, cloudy pillar Lead me all my journey
through: Song deliverer! Song deliverer! Be Thou still my strength and shield (2ce).
3. If I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside: Bear me through the swelling torrent, Land me safe on Canaan's side: Songs of praises! Songs of praises! I will ever give to Thee (2ce).
4. Saviour, come! We long to see thee, long to dwell with thee above and to know in full communion, all the sweetness of Thy love. Come, Lord Jesus! Come, Lord Jesus! Take thy waiting people home (2ce).
