MESSAGE: – Open Heavens 6 January 2026 Tuesday Daily Devotional

Many believers are dealing with darkness inside their hearts because their hearts are full of bitterness and anger. Some of these believers are angry with God, their spouses, children, parents, etc. I understand that the world is a wicked place, and it can be easy for bitterness to creep into your heart. However, instead of allowing bitterness to envelop you, you must open up your heart to the light of God. The word of God is light; let this light become an armor that protects you from darkness.

Today’s memory verse admonishes us to cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light. Light is an armor, and just as a soldier needs armor to survive the attacks of an enemy, light protects you from any arrow of bitterness that the enemy might shoot against you. To put on the armor of light, you must cast off the works of darkness. You cannot overcome the prince of darkness when you have the works of darkness in you. Sin is the greatest work of darkness. If you are still living in sin, you must repent, put on the armor of light, and live righteously.

As I have progressed in life, I have experienced betrayals from different people. I have been hurt by people who are far from me and people who are very dear to me. I have been hurt by unbelievers and even by some ministers of God. However, despite all these, I haven’t lost my joy. I haven’t stopped being kind, even to those who betrayed me. Even though they may have hurt me, my heart is protected by the armor of light, which will not allow darkness to creep into my heart.

Beloved, don’t keep malice, and don’t focus on people who have hurt you. Ephesians 6:12 says: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

The real enemy is the devil, who wants to plant a seed of bitterness in your heart so you can be filled with darkness. Don’t let him succeed; rather, put on the armor of light by subjecting all your thoughts to the authority of Christ, casting off every sinful habit and meditating on God’s word at all times. As you do this, I pray that your heart will be filled with joy, and you will continually experience the peace of God that passes all understanding.

Action Point – Open Heavens 6 January 2026

If there is any work of darkness in your life, ensure you cast them off and put on the armor of light.

Open Heavens 6 January 2026 Tuesday Hymn

Hymn 24: I Want to Be Like Jesus

1 I want to be like Jesus,

So lowly and so meek;

For no one marked an angry word

That ever heard him speak.

Refrain:

I want to be like Jesus,

God’s well beloved Son;

I want to be like Jesus,

The pure and holy One.

2 I want to be like Jesus,

So frequently in prayer;

Alone upon the mountain top,

He met his Father there.

3 I want to be like Jesus,

Engaged in doing good,

So that of me it may be said,

He hath done what he could.

4 Alas! I’m not like Jesus,

As any one may see;

Thy gentle Spirit, Savior, send,

And make me like to thee.
