Message Open Heavens Daily Devotional May 7, 2026
As I continue teaching about the secrets to longevity, I want to discuss the importance of refuelling while walking on the path that God has set before you. To enjoy longevity, especially in the kingdom of God, you must refuel and recharge your spiritual batteries regularly.
God designed man in such a way that he would constantly need refuelling. This is why He made sure that every day would be followed by a night so that after working very hard during the day, you can sleep at night and refuel your energy. Likewise, after breakfast in the morning, it is normal to feel hungry after a few hours, especially if you have expended lots of energy. God designed you to eat at varying intervals so you can refuel your energy.
For guns to remain effective, they must be reloaded after they have been fired. Likewise, if a believer wants to remain on the path that God has ordained for him or her, the believer must always recharge his or her spiritual batteries.
For example, a Christian cannot function effectively based on the Scriptures he or she studied last year or the fasting and prayers embarked upon three years ago. Such a Christian will be weak and become easy prey for the devil; hence, there must be constant refuelling to remain spiritually fit.
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Matthew 5:6
God created hunger to remind us that we are running low on fuel, so we can eat to restore our energy. Just as He created physical hunger as a signal to eat and replenish energy, He also created spiritual hunger and thirst as a sign that you must recharge. When you feel hungry for God’s word, excited when it is time for Bible Study, or are always looking forward to praying, you are spiritually healthy.
However, if you don’t attend to that hunger, you may not feel it anymore after a while. If a believer does not feel hungry for spiritual things anymore, it means that he or she is already empty and is on the verge of dying spiritually.
Beloved, nobody lasts long in God’s kingdom without consistent spiritual hunger and refuelling. If you ever get to a point where you don’t feel hungry for God’s word, cry to God to renew your spiritual hunger. May you always hunger and thirst after righteousness so you will be empowered to fulfil God’s purpose for your life, in Jesus’ name.
