LOOK TOWARD HEAVEN!

(Turn Your Attention Away to the Lord)

📖TO THE BIBLE

Psalm 121:1-2

“I will lift up my eyes to the hills—From whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.

▶️LET’S TALK

“I’m so smart: Cynthia’s dad is a business mogul and I can keep asking him for anything I want,” Leslie prided herself as they all drove to school in his chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce. This feeling didn’t quite last, as the next time she tried asking a favour from him, she got reprimanded. Till this point, she never realised that she’d been solely focused and dependent on people who could fail her, rather than on God. How important it is for us to take our eyes and attention away from ourselves—who we are, what we’ve done, where we’ve been, what we’ve got—and look to the Lord!

It brings to mind the story of Abraham in Genesis 15. God told to him, “Do not be afraid…I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward” (verse 1). And in Genesis 15:5-6, we read, “Then He (God) brought him outside and said, “Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.” And He said to him, “So shall your descendants be.” And he believed in the Lord, and He accounted it to him for righteousness.” Soon afterwards, Isaac was born. God helped Abraham to look in the right direction and set his focus rightly. In the end, Abraham looked away from his old age and circumstances, toward heaven, and got Isaac.

Refuse to be one who looks into your wallet or purse to determine what you’ve got in life. Don’t say, “I’m so broke; there’s no money here.” No! Look away to Jesus, the Author and Finisher of your faith; look to heaven where your help comes from. That’s one reason you pray and meditate on the Word. That’s how you can really focus your attention on the Lord to see and experience the miraculous! So, refuse to be anxious about who’s going to help you! Look toward heaven!

▶️ GO DEEPER:

Isaiah 26:3; Philippians 4:6-7; Hebrews 12:2

🗣 PRAY

Dear Father, I thank you for bringing me into a place of excellence, success, victory, and abundance. I’m inspired by your Word to think the right thoughts, speak the right words and receive the results of the Word in my life today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

MONDAY, 14TH JULY 2025 THE VIRGIN BIRTH CONFIRMS HIS DEITY Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us (Matthew 1:23). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME When we say Jesus Christ is deity, we’re affirmingthat He is God. This claim is significant, especially when you consider that many around the world view Jesus merely as a prophet or a great teacher. While it may seem respectful for some to call Him a great prophet or a remarkable teacher, these assertions fall far short of His true identity. That’s the reason it’s important to understand who He really is by first examining the miracle of His birth. TheBible describes His birth as extraordinary, something that had never occurred in all of history. Matthew 1:18 says, “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with c...

THURSDAY, JULY 31TH 2025 OUR UNIQUE ASSIGNMENTS IN THE MILLENNIUM Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment. And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land (Isaiah 32:1-2). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Our theme scripture is prophetic about the Millennium. The latter part alludes to the unique role we (the Church) would be playing in the millennial reign, when Israel takes center stage. The millennial reign of Christ is not for the Church. It’s for Israel. So, what are we, the Church, going to be doing then? We're going to be carrying out angelic assignments. Our role at the millennial reign of Christ is very different from what a lot of people think; it’s going to be much like what the angels do today in ministering for us. In that day, the Jews will walk in the Millennial blessings that characterize the life of the saints wh...
