OPEN HEAVEN 14 JULY 2022 MESSAGE

Things described as lovely are very beautiful or attractive. Heaven, for example, is a very lovely place; everything in heaven is extremely beautiful and attractive.

Revelation 21:21 says: “And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.”

Heaven is also a place of extreme joy; there is no pain or sorrow in heaven. “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Revelation 21:4”

These Bible verses tell us straightaway that there is a link between thinking on lovely things and having joy. The more you think on lovely things, the more joyful you become and vice versa.

Many people are depressed today because they keep thinking of things that are not lovely despite having many beautiful things around them to think of. If you find yourself in a state of depression, then it is time to quickly switch your thinking gear to the lovely things.

Think about the fact that your eyes can still see clearly enough to read the Open Heavens Devotional every morning, that you can walk, that you can dress up yourself. You may be considered a dog now, but Ecclesiastes 9:4 says that a living dog is better than a dead lion.

The fact that you are still alive is a lovely thing to think about because that means there is hope for you. If you are not looking for someone to donate a kidney to you because yours is still working fine and your heart is still beating normally, all these and more are lovely things to think on.

Even if you think there is nothing lovely to think about in your past, think of the lovely future that God has promised you; that you will one day lend to nations (Deuteronomy 15:6), that you will heal the sick and raise the dead (Mark 16:17-18), that you will live a beautiful life with your children all aground your table (Psalms 128:1-3).

OPEN HEAVEN 14 JULY 2022 KEY POINT: Prayer Points For Open Heavens 14 July 2022

Focus on the lovely things the Lord has done or promised to do and always let His joy flow through you.

DEEPER, DEEPER IN THE LOVE OF JESUS

1. Deeper, deeper in the love of Jesus
Daily let me go;
Higher, higher in the school of wisdom,
More of grace to know.

CHORUS
O deeper yet I pray,
And higher evry day,
And wiser, blessed, Lord,
In Thy precious, holy Word.

2. Deeper, deeper! blessed Holy Spirit,
Take me deeper still,
Till my life is wholly lost in Jesus,
And His perfect will.

3. Deeper, deeper! tho it cost hard trials,
Deeper let me go!
Rooted in the holy love of Jesus,
Let me fruitful grow.

4. Deeper, higher, evry day in Jesus,
Till all conflict past,
Finds me conquror, and in His own image
Perfected at last.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 14 JULY 2022

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 14 JULY 2022 MEMORIZE: Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. James 2:17

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 14 JULY 2022 BIBLE READING JAMES 2:26

For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 14 JULY 2022 MESSAGE

Hebrews 11:1 says: “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of thinTgs not seen.”

Many people don’t know that faith has a partner known as works. One cannot exist without the other. In fact, when a believer takes a leap of faith, God looks out for the matching works, so that He can bless the fellow.

For instance, the woman with the issue of blood suffered for twelve years until she heard that Jesus was in her neighbourhood. She did not stay at home waiting for a miracle but went to the place of the meeting, forced her way through the crowd until she got really close and touched the hem of His garment.

Many Christians get it wrong by not creating a balance. A student who goes on a 14-day prayer and fasting spree just to pass an examination but doesn’t put much time into studying and attending lectures may end up failing.

Similarly, an employee who is praying to be promoted at work but resumes late and performs poorly at his/her duties will most likely be demoted or even sacked.

God wants us to have absolute faith in Him but there is also the place of work and expertise in all that we do. As much as possible, be sure to balance faith with works.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 14 JULY 2022 KEY POINT

Take steps to balance faith with works henceforth.

‘TIS SO SWEET TO TRUST IN JESUS

1. ‘Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to take him at his word;
Just to rest upon His promise,
Just to know, “Thus saith the Lord.

CHORUS
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved him o’er and o’er!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust him more!

2. O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to trust His cleansing blood;
Just in simple faith to plunge me
’Neath the healing, cleansing flood!

3. Yes, ’tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
just from sin and self to cease;
just from Jesus simply taking
life and rest, and joy and peace.

4. I’m so glad I learn’d to trust Thee,
Precious Jesus, Saviour, Friend,
And I know that Thou art with me,
Wilt be with me to the end.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 13 JULY 2022 MEMORIZE: So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Revelation 3:16

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 13 JULY 2022 BIBLE READING REVELATION 3:11-16

11. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

12. Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

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

14. And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

15. I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

16. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 13 JULY 2022 MESSAGE

To have a dying fire is to become lukewarm – a state where someone is in-between being hot and cold. In my early Christian years, I took my Bible everywhere, including the restroom, with the aim of studying to know more about Jesus.

Today, I see many people leave their Bibles at home and fiddle with their phones during Church services under the guise of using electronic Bibles. If you now feel comfortable doing the things you did when you were a sinner, it just might be that your fire for God is burning out.

The following are ways to know that the fire of the Holy Spirit is dying in a Christian’s life: the fellow no longer has fresh revelations of God’s word, gets tired when he/she is praying or reduces his/her prayer time, misses out on his/her personal devotion and finds it difficult to participate in spiritual exercises like fasting.

My dear, losing ones fire is very dangerous because it opens one up to attacks from the enemy; also, God will spit out whoever is lukewarm from His mouth. This will not be your portion, in Jesus name.

Check your life to know if you’re still on fire for the Lord and if not, ask the Holy Spirit for help today. Thereafter, pick up your Bible, study it and meditate on God’s word.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 13 JULY 2022 HYMN

STAND UP, STAND UP FOR JESUS

1. Stand up! stand up for Jesus
Ye soldiers of the cross!
Lift high His royal banner;
It must not suffer loss.
From vict’ry unto vict’ry
His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquished,
And Christ is Lord indeed.

2. Stand up! stand up for Jesus,
the trumpet call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict,
In this His glorious day;
Ye that are men now serve Him
against unnumbered foes;
let courage rise with danger,
and strength to strength oppose.

3. Stand up! stand up for Jesus,
stand in his strength alone;
The arm of flesh will fail you,
Ye dare not trust your own:
put on the gospel armour,
And watching unto prayer;
where duty calls, or danger,
be never wanting there.

4. Stand up! stand up for Jesus,
The strife will not be long;
this day the noise of battle,
the next the victor’s song:
to him that overcometh
A crown of life shall be;
He with the King of glory
shall reign eternally.

OPEN HEAVEN 13 JULY 2022 MESSAGE

Today is my wife’s birthday and I just want to share some things that women in ministry can learn from her walk with God. One of the most obvious qualities my wife possesses, which has helped her succeed in ministry even as it has greatly impacted my walk with God is her compassionate heart.

If you know anything about love, you know that love gives. Not only does she give substance, she also gives time and affection. She is always willing to spend and be spent for the sake of the sheep (2 Corinthians 12:15).

Many people think that she gives because we have been blessed by God now; what they don’t know is that she has been giving on this same scale even when things were tough for us.

There was one day I almost stopped her when she gave our last tuber of yam to someone in need. If you want to succeed in ministry, you must be willing to spend and be spent.

Until God has seen your compassion for the few sheep He has given to you, He will not give you more. For women who are in ministry because their husband is there also, there is a lot to learn too.

When the Bible says in Proverbs 31:11 that the heart of the virtuous womans husband safely trusts in her, you need to ask yourself, Can my husband safely trust me with certain parts of his ministry and not be bothered at all? If you are to be his help meet suited to his needs, yet he has to handle everything, then what exactly are you helping him with?.

There are departments in The Redeemed Christian Church of God that I don’t even bother myself about at all and I have never heard a bad report from them in all the years that my wife has been handling them.

She handles the childrens ministry, the hospitality unit, feeding of the guests and even feeding of the millions of people who come for our programmes. My heart safely trusts in her and I have never regretted it.

Your wife has a big role to play in how far you will go in ministry. I know I certainly wouldn’t have enjoyed this level of success without my wife by my side. She is a special blessing from God to me.

She supports me spiritually too. She prays for me constantly and many times joins me in fasting for 40 days and nights. God bless you, my darling wife. Together, we will finish well, in Jesus name.

OPEN HEAVEN 13 JULY 2022 KEY POINT

Please pray for all the women in ministry, that they will do the work of God with compassion for the sheep. Pray for your Pastors wife, that she will be a great blessing to his ministry, in the mighty name of Jesus.

OPEN HEAVEN 13 JULY 2022 HYMN

I’M PRESSING ON THE UPWARD WAY

1. I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher
ground”.

CHORUS
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith on heaven’s table-land;
Where love and joy and light abound,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

2. My heart has no desire to stay,
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where
these abound,
My constant aim is higher ground.

3. Beyond the mist I fain would rise,
To rest beneath unclouded skies,
Above earth’s turmoil peace is found
By those who dwell on higher ground.

4. I long to scale the utmost height,
Though rough the way, and hard the fight,
My song while climbing shall resound
Lord lead me on to higher ground.

5. Lord lead me up the mountain side,
I dare not climb without my Guide;
And heaven gained, I’ll gaze around,
With grateful heart from higher ground.
