RCCG Open Heaven 3 November 2026 Daily Devotional by Pastor E.A. Adeboye – GRATITUDE UNLOCKS MORE

Topic: GRATITUDE UNLOCKS MORE

Memorise:

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
— Colossians 3:15 (KJV)

Read: Luke 17:12-19 (KJV)

12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
13 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
14 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,
16 And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.
19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

RCCG Open Heavens 3 November 2026 Today Message by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

God desires that we express gratitude to Him at all times. This appreciation and gratitude can be expressed through our prayers, praise, and worship. Psalm 100:4 says that we should come before His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise. In today’s Bible reading, Jesus healed 10 lepers, but only one came back to say “Thank you.” Jesus then asked him, “Where are the other nine?”

The reason many people have not received greater miracles from God is that they have not said ‘Thank you’ for the ones He did for them before. When we were launching the first RCCG branch in Abuja, we held a three-day crusade. Before the crusade began, I was in a hotel, praying that God should perform miracles and that there should be a great outpouring of His presence at the crusade. Suddenly, God said, “Shut up.” I was happy because even though that was a rebuke, I was sure that He could hear me. Then He said, “You keep commanding Me to do things for you. Am I your servant? Have you thanked Me for all the things I did in the past?”

I apologised immediately and said, “Lord, I thank You for all You did in the past, but please do more.” Again, He told me to stop. Then, He said, “For the next three days, I don’t want to hear anything from you other than thanksgiving.” It was challenging, but I did it anyway. At the end of the three days, the Lord said, “Son, go home, appoint elders, and let them go around to teach the doctrines of the church to strengthen its foundation, because what you have seen thus far is addition. What you are now about to see is multiplication.” To the glory of God, RCCG has experienced multiplication in Abuja and, indeed, across the world.

Beloved, when you are full of gratitude for what God has done, He will do more like He did for the man who returned to say ‘Thank you’ in today’s Bible reading. Please, do not be counted among the unthankful people of the last days (2 Timothy 3:1-2). If you think deeply, regardless of your situation, you will find several reasons to be thankful to God. Do not wait until the privileges you have taken for granted are taken away before you begin to thank God. He wants you to come before Him with a grateful heart at all times.

Action Point:
Spend time appreciating God every day.

Bible in One Year:
John 5-6

Hymn: Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven

Verse 1:
Praise, my soul, the King of heaven;
To His feet thy tribute bring;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Evermore His praises sing:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Praise the everlasting King.

Verse 2:
Praise Him for His grace and favour
To His people in distress;
Praise Him still the same as ever,
Slow to chide, and swift to bless:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Glorious in His faithfulness.

Verse 3:
Father-like He tends and spares us;
Well our feeble frame He knows;
In His hands He gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Widely yet His mercy flows.

Verse 4:
Angels, help us to adore Him;
Ye behold Him face to face;
Sun and moon, bow down before Him,
Dwellers all in time and space:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace.

Open Heaven Devotional 3 November 2026 Commentary

Theme: The Burden Bearer unlocks more when you show gratitude. Thanksgiving is not just good manners—it is a spiritual doorway that releases multiplication.

Major Keywords: Gratitude unlocks more, thanksgiving, the ten lepers, multiplication through gratitude, grateful heart.

Commentary Summary:

• God Desires Your Thanks Always: Psalm 100:4 says we enter His gates with thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is not optional—it is the doorway into God’s presence. Make it a priority, not an afterthought.

• Gratitude Unlocks More Blessings: Only one of ten lepers returned to thank Jesus, and he was made whole. Daddy was told by God to spend three days only thanking Him—and RCCG experienced multiplication. The blessing you are praying for may be locked behind a “thank you” you have not said.

• Don’t Let Your Situation Make You Unthankful: Your circumstances are not an excuse for ingratitude. Even in the storm, you have reasons to thank God. Do not be among the unthankful people of the last days (2 Timothy 3:1-2).

• Key Truth: Gratitude is the doorway to multiplication. Before you ask for more, thank Him for what you already have. Thanksgiving changes your perspective and your outcome.

Reference to Theme: This message, GRATITUDE UNLOCKS MORE, teaches that thanksgiving is a spiritual key. It opens doors, releases blessings, and turns addition into multiplication. Thank God always.

Action Steps:

1. Begin Every Prayer with Thanksgiving: Before you ask God for anything, take time to thank Him for what He has already done.

2. Keep a Gratitude Journal: Each day this week, write down at least three things God has done for you. Review the list when you feel overwhelmed.

3. Thank God for Your Current Level: Whether it is your salary, job, family, or health, thank God for where you are right now.
