Deuteronomy 28:12 says "The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow." As I've meditated on this scripture over the last several months, I became curious about open heavens. I did a simple word search to find out what things come out of an open heaven. To my surprise, I discovered that some awesome things come out of open heavens. The Holy Spirit descended from heaven, angels ascend and descend from open heavens, blessings and rain pour out of open heavens, Jesus shined thru a blinding light out of heaven and visions of God come thru open heavens. In Mark 7, we find Jesus encountering a boy who is deaf and cannot speak. Jesus gazes into heaven, and with a deep moan, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened. As Jesus made this cry, Be Open, into heaven, the boy's ears opened up and he could speak. As I was reading this story, the Lord showed me that we are able to speak open heavens over people and situations and speak healing, visions, of God blessings, rain, etc out of open heavens. I challenge you on this week to begin to declare open heavens over your difficult situations, and speak what you need from heaven. I believe that we're at least guaranteed things that the Word demonstrates that come from open heavens, and I also believe that we can speak our heart's desires back to God during these same occasions! Be encouraged this week! Purpose to Love your God, yourself, and your neighbor tirelessly today!
God Bless You!
