Open Heaven 28 September 2026 TOPIC – The Breath Of God
MEMORISE: Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: – Ezekiel 37:5 (KJV)
READ: Ezra 5:1-5, 6:14-15 (KJV)
Ezra 5:1-5
5 Then the prophets, Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah the son of Iddo, prophesied unto the Jews that were in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel, even unto them.
2 Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and began to build the house of God which is at Jerusalem: and with them were the prophets of God helping them.
3 At the same time came to them Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shetharboznai and their companions, and said thus unto them, Who hath commanded you to build this house, and to make up this wall?
4 Then said we unto them after this manner, What are the names of the men that make this building?
5 But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, that they could not cause them to cease, till the matter came to Darius: and then they returned answer by letter concerning this matter.
Ezra 6:14-15
14 And the elders of the Jews builded, and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they builded, and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
15 And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Zechariah 1-5
Open Heaven 28 September 2026 MESSAGE
In John 20:19-22, the Bible tells us that when Jesus visited His disciples, He breathed on them. When God visits a person, He breathes on him or her. Adam was a lifeless lump of clay until God breathed on him in Genesis 2:7. When the breath of God went into him, he became a living being. The once lifeless creature came alive and began to walk around, talk, and even name animals. A person will remain ordinary until God breathes life into him or her. Likewise, the breath of God on a lifeless project will bring it to life, and it will eventually become successful. I pray in the name that is above every other name that God will breathe upon you and all that concerns you.

In Ezekiel 37:1-10, the Bible tells us that Prophet Ezekiel found himself in the middle of a valley that was full of bones. The bones were not just many, they were also very dry and lifeless. They would have continued experiencing dryness and death if God had not intervened. He sent His word through the prophet and breathed upon them. As soon as the breath of the Almighty God came upon them, they came together, flesh and sinews came upon them, and they arose as a great army. The bones that had previously looked dry and powerless now became a mighty and formidable force because of the breath of God. I decree that every dry or dead situation in your life will begin to live again henceforth, in Jesus’ name.
Many people have visions of something great they want to achieve, and even though they have tried to pursue those visions, things have not gone as they expected. As a result, many of those visions have been abandoned and forgotten. Today’s Bible reading tells us that when the Israelites returned to Jerusalem to build the temple in Zerubabbel’s time, they faced opposition from their neighbours, and at one point they even had to put the construction on hold (Ezra 4:24). The situation remained the same until God sent His prophets, Haggai and Zechariah, to prophesy to the people. Their prophecy released the breath of God upon them, and the work that had been halted resumed and was completed successfully.
Beloved, I decree that God will breathe into your life, family, career, visions, and all that concerns you, in Jesus’ name.

Open Heaven 28 September 2026 HYMN 15 – Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour
1 Pass me not, O gentle Savior
Hear my humble cry,
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
2 Let me at a throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition
Help my unbelief.
3 Trusting only in Thy merit
Would I seek Thy face
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.
4 Thou the Spring of all my comfort
More than life to me
Whom have I on earth beside Thee
Whom in heav’n but Thee?

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
