OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 17 AUGUST 2022 BIBLE READING EXODUS 15:10-11

10.  Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.

11.  Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

Adults Version: Open Heaven 17 August 2022

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 17 AUGUST 2022 MESSAGE

Jesus being called Wonderful means He is full of wonders. A wonder is an unexpected event that leaves your mouth wide open. God performed a wonder for the children of Israel when they came face to face with the Red Sea. He told Moses to lift his rod and the sea parted into two. This was a pleasant wonder.

The Egyptians too experienced a type of wonder. They must have been amazed at how the Red sea parted for the Israelites before giving hot chase, but met with their doom in the process. The sea closed up on them and they all drowned. What an unpleasant wonder this was for the enemies of Gods children.

I decree that every unrepentant enemy that doesn’t want you to fulfil your glorious destiny will experience unpleasant wonders henceforth, in Jesus’ name. Has anyone written you off because there’s nothing promising about your life? I decree that your life will begin an upward movement and God will make you an amazing wonder, in Jesus name.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 17 AUGUST 2022 PRAYER POINT

Lord Jesus, please make me a wonder to my world.

whom heaven and earth adore;
for thus it was, is now,
and shall be evermore.

OPEN HEAVEN 17 AUGUST 2022 MEMORIZE: For many are called, but few are chosen. Matthew 22.14

OPEN HEAVEN 17 AUGUST 2022 BIBLE READING REVELATION 3:3-6

3. Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

4. Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.

5. He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

6. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

MATTHEW 24:42-44

42. Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43. But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

OPEN HEAVEN 17 AUGUST 2022 MESSAGE

“Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.”

Revelation 3:4 The Church in Sardis must have been fairly big, but Jesus said only a few of them had not soiled their garments. These few must have been called fanatics, but Jesus called them worthy (for they are worthy).

Even though the world around us now is extremely corrupt, there would always be a few who will not stain their garments. Are you amongst such few that the Lord considers worthy? Here are the things Jesus said concerning these few: They will walk with Him in white because they are worthy to do so. Their names will be found in the book of life. He will confess their names before God and the angels.

I want to be amongst these few. What about you? For those who are not amongst the few, those who don’t do His will and have soiled their garments, He is saying: He will come on them like a thief. They will not be clothed in white along with Him. Their names will not be found in the book of life, but rather, in the book of death.

When the rapture happens, these people will not be prepared, so just like a thief takes his or her victims by surprise and steals from them, so will the rapture do to these ones (Matthew 24:43).

By Gods grace, I am prepared. Thus, if rapture happens now, by the grace of God, I will be smiling. The unfortunate thing is that there will be many people in this second set. Jesus said that, to be amongst the few, you must overcome.

You must overcome temptations, the lures of the devil, and the world If you want to be amongst the few whose names will be found in the book of life, then you must ensure that you live a holy life from now.

Study your Bible daily, don’t miss Christian fellowships, pray without ceasing, preach the word and do the work of God. I pray that you make it to heaven on the last day, in Jesus name.

If rapture takes place today, will you make it to heaven?

New heights I’m gaining ev’ry day;
Still praying as I’m onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

By faith, on heaven’s tableland;

Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where these abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground. [Refrain]

3 I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught a joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground. [Refrain]

4 I want to scale the utmost height,
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till heav’n I’ve found,
“Lord, lead me on to higher ground.” [Refrain]

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 16 AUGUST 2022 MEMORIZE: And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail. Hebrews 1:12

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 16 AUGUST 2022 BIBLE READING HEBREWS 1:8-12

8.  But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

9.  Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

10.  And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:

11.  They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;

12.  And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 16 AUGUST 2022 MESSAGE

In Matthew 26:36-46, Jesus separated Himself from His disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane to seek Gods face concerning His death on the cross. He prayed hard until His physical strength gave way to supernatural strength. In fact, He groaned in prayers until His sweat became as thick as blood. He repeated the same prayer request three times, yet God did not change His mind.

From this, we can learn that no amount of prayer can cause God to negate His plans or purpose for your life. Rather than wasting your time and effort praying that God will change His word, ask to know His will and request for the special grace to align with it.

I remember Mummy G.O. and I fasted and prayed for 14 days, requesting that God would change His mind from choosing us to become pastors, not to talk of General Overseer, but God didn’t answer.  Malachi 3:6 says: “For I am the LORD, I change not…”

God’s personality and His words cannot change. However, He may decide to change a situation as He deems fit. Has God promised you something? Keep trusting in Him, praise Him, fellowship more with Him, study His word and remain steadfast in faith.

As long as God cannot change, all will be well with you.

O WORSHIP THE KING

1.  O worship the King all glorious above,
O gratefully sing His power and His love:
our Shield and Defender, the
Ancient of Days,
pavilioned in splendour and girded
with praise.

2.  O tell of His might, O sing of His grace,
whose robe is the light, whose
canopy space.
His chariots of wrath the deep
thunderclouds form,
and dark is His path on the wings of
the storm.

3.  Thy bountiful care, what tongue can
recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the
light;
It streams from the hills, it descends
to the plain,
and sweetly distils in the dew and
the rain.

4.  Frail children of dust, and feeble as
frail,
in Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to
fail.
Your mercies, how tender, how firm
to the end,
our Maker, Defender, Redeemer,
and Friend!

5.  O measureless Might, ineffable Love,
While angels delight to hymn Thee above!
The humbler creation, though
feeble their lays,
with true adoration shall lisp to Thy praise!

OPEN HEAVEN 16 AUGUST 2022 MEMORIZE: And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. Romans 13:11

OPEN HEAVEN 16 AUGUST 2022 BIBLE READING REVELATION 3:1-3

1. And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.

2. Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.

3. Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

OPEN HEAVEN 16 AUGUST 2022 MESSAGE

Historical records have it that the city of Sardis was besieged and overpowered by various nations at different times, primarily because the inhabitants were not as watchful as they should have been. This same carelessness that was prevalent in the city had entered the Church.

Except for a few people in the Church in Sardis who had not soiled their garments, there was no good thing for Jesus to say about them. Jesus said they should be watchful and strengthen the things that were remaining and about to die (Revelation 3:1-3).

These people were slack in upholding their faith. You cannot be a true Christian if you are not disciplined. Any Christian who is lazy about their faith will soil their garment. John 5:17 says: “But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.”

Some Christians are so lazy that they offer Pastors money to pray and fast for them. God will not accept such fasting and prayer. If you cannot fast and pray by yourself, you don’t read your Bible, you don’t attend fellowships, you don’t work in the vineyard of God, you don’t evangelise, then you are dying spiritually.

It is only a matter of time before sin creeps in and you find yourself back in the world. If you want to stand firm in Christ until the end, you must be watchful! “Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.” 1 Corinthians 10:12 What are the things that you must watch out for as a Christian?

You must watch against the wiles of the devil (Ephesians 6:11). You must watch against temptations (Matthew 26:41). You must watch out against false teaching by reading your Bible yourself (Acts 20:29-30). You must watch out against sub-standard or lazy service to God because He will judge your service (Revelation 3:2).

Lastly, you must watch out for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ because no one knows the date or the time that He will come (Matthew 24:42-43).

OPEN HEAVEN 16 AUGUST 2022 KEY POINT

Christians must be disciplined and watchful.
