Pastor E.A. Adeboye Urges Believers to Embrace Humility in April 13 Open Heaven Devotional
Lagos, Nigeria – April 13, 2025 — In today’s edition of the Open Heaven daily devotional, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, emphasized the importance of humility and spiritual discipline, calling on Christians to “learn of Christ” in their daily walk with God.
Drawing from the biblical text Matthew 11:29, Pastor Adeboye reflected on the theme, “Learn of Me,” noting that many Christians seek rest and direction in life but fail to embrace the humility and obedience required to receive them.
“Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls,” the scripture reads.
According to the revered cleric, the secret to divine peace and guidance lies in surrendering to the teachings and character of Jesus. “Learning of Christ involves daily devotion, submission to the Word, and a heart that is open to correction,” he stated in the devotional.
Meekness Leads to Divine Direction
Pastor Adeboye further referenced Psalm 25:9, which says, “The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way,” stressing that meekness is not weakness but strength under divine control.
He warned against the modern trend of pride and self-dependence, urging believers to embrace the kind of humility that positions them to hear clearly from God and make wise decisions.
“If the Word of God becomes your guide, you will never walk in darkness,” he wrote.
Advice to the Faithful
In practical terms, Pastor Adeboye advised Christians to start each day in the Word, let the Bible be their ultimate reference, and choose grace and silence over strife and self-justification.
The devotional ended with a prayer point, asking God to grant believers the grace to learn from Christ and walk in true humility.
