OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 11 MAY 2022 MEMORIZE: I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Philippians 4:13

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 11 MAY 2022 BIBLE READING ROMANS 6:12-13

12. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

13. Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 11 MAY 2022 MESSAGE

Now that you’re a new creature, you must be intentional about keeping your salvation intact. Your thoughts, words, actions and reactions have to be controlled by the Holy Spirit.

A wise youth once said, The system of this world is structured in a way that makes it difficult for people to live holy, hence the need to be very deliberate about your walk with God. Maintaining a holy life is possible by the leading of the Holy Spirit.

Romans 8:9-10 says: “But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.”

You can attain continuous holy living by the help of God but you need to pay attention to the content you take in, your association and sources of influence, the sites you visit on the internet et cetera. Being careless about any of these things could rob you of your glorious destiny.

Father, please help me to live by the Spirit until I see you in glory.

OPEN HEAVEN 11 MAY 2022 MEMORIZE: And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated. Deuteronomy 34:7

OPEN HEAVEN 11 MAY 2022 BIBLE READING JOSHUA 14:7-12

7. Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadeshbarnea to espy out the land; and brought him word again as it was in mine heart.

8. Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the LORD my God.

9. And Moses sware on that day, saying, Surely the land whereon thy feet have trodden shall be thine inheritance, and thy children’s for ever, because thou hast wholly followed the LORD my God.

10. And now, behold, the LORD hath kept me alive, as he said, these forty and five years, even since the LORD spake this word unto Moses, while the children of lsrael wandered in the wilderness: and now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old.

11. As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out, and to come in.

12. Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the LORD spake in that day; for thou heardest in that day how the Anakims were there, and that the cities were great and fenced: if so be the LORD will be with me, then I shall be able to drive them out, as the LORD said.

Good morning beloved, Welcome to Open Heavens devotional. Thank you for joining us today.

Today’s Powerful Confession: I confess today I am a heir to God. A joint heir with Christ. I belong to the Kingdom of God therefore, I enjoy a supernatural lifestyle even here on earth. I am not victim to evil happenings and circumstances. I thrive in every situation in Jesus name. Amen Hallelujah!

OPEN HEAVEN 11 MAY 2022 MESSAGE

There are many people in the hospital now who would not have been there if only they had been eating healthy foods and exercising regularly.

They ate whatever they felt like eating and did not do any exercise because they didn’t seem to be having any health challenges, only to find out later that a disease had been growing inside them all the while.

In the time when you are feeling healthy, that is when you should pay good attention to your health. For those whose health deteriorated to such an extent that they landed in the hospital, it may be too late for them to go out and exercise.

They can only pray for God to heal them and I am quite sure that when they get better, they will begin to eat healthy. I join my faith with whoever is reading this from the sickbed now; be healed in Jesus name.

I know some Christians will quote in Timothy 4:8 “For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.”

They interpret the verse above to mean that spiritual exercise is the only important thing to consider. That passage however, did not say physical exercise does not profit at all. It says it profits little.

That little profit must not be ignored. A lot rests on that little as you cannot be as spiritually profitable as you would be if you were sick. God needs your body to help Him fulfil His will on the earth.

The more Christians live healthy, the more work He can use them to do and the longer they can do the work. God was able to use Moses right up until he was 120 years old because Moses was strong and healthy even at that age.

Caleb was able to say, Give me this mountain at the age of 85 because he was strong and healthy. Take care of that body.

Don’t let it break down before you pay attention to it. If you find out that when you walk a few miles, you start panting, you need to start exercising.

If your back seems to be aching more quickly than before, then maybe your sugar intake is becoming too much. Pay attention to your health now so that you don’t run into trouble later.

It is advisable to have a comprehensive medical checkup once or twice a year. It is not just when you are feeling sick that you should ask the doctor to examine you. By then, it may be late.

OPEN HEAVEN 11 MAY 2022 KEY POINT

When was the last time you did a comprehensive medical check-up?

O GOD OUR HELP IN AGES PAST

1. O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home;

2. Under the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure.
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
and our defence is sure.

3. Before the hills in order stood,
or earth received her frame,
from everlasting Thou art God,
to endless years the same.

4. A thousand ages in Thy sight
are like an evening gone,
short as the watch that ends the
night
before the rising sun.

5. Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
bears all its sons away.
They fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.

6. O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
be Thou our guard while troubles last,
and our eternal home.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 10 MAY 2022 BIBLE READING GALATIANS 2:20

I am crucified with Christ: neverthless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

Adults Version: Open Heaven 10 May 2022

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 10 MAY 2022 MESSAGE

At the point of salvation, nothing changes except your spirit which is now in communion with God. Your spirit man that was dead is now alive unto righteousness but you’re still living in the same body.

The devil or the flesh will want to lure you back into sin but you must be determined to stay on the side of Christ. No wonder Paul said I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live (Galatians 2:20). A crucified fellow is one who has fully submitted his/her flesh to the Spirit of God working in him/her.

Thus, if a fellow were to slap him/her, it would amount to a waste of time because the crucified fellow cannot react to insults. If someone tries to entice the crucified man to sin, there will be no movement because the body is dead.

This is how God expects His children to live. You must be dead to sin and anything that may want to make you offend God. To achieve this, you must constantly renew your mind with the word of God.

Romans 12:2 says “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 10 MAY 2022 PRAYER POINT

Father please, as from today, help me to crucify my flesh daily, based on Your word.

I AM THINE O LORD

1. I am Thine, O Lord,
I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But I long to rise
in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee.

CHORUS
Draw me nearer,
nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died;
Draw me nearer,
nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

2. Consecrate me now to
Thy service, Lord,
By the pow’r of grace divine;
Let my soul look up
with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.

3. Oh, the pure delight
of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer,
and with Thee, my God
I commune as friend with friend!

4. There are depths of love
that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy
that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.

OPEN HEAVEN 10 MAY 2022 MESSAGE

There was no war when Abraham was training his servants to fight, but the day came when he needed to rescue his nephew.

By then, he had 318 soldiers to take to war. If you study the story of Abraham, you would realise that he never had to fight another war afterwards, but that one time that he fought was worth all the preparation he had gone through (Genesis 14:14-16).

David also, didn’t start learning to use his sling on the day he slew Goliath. He had perfected its use long before that. He had been practicing how to use the sling long before he ever set eyes on the giant. You never can tell when you would need to fight; on that day, your victory will depend on whether or not you had been preparing.

Ephesians 6:13 says: “Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”

You are to put on the whole armour of God so that you are able to stand in the evil day; be ready ahead of time. The perfect time to prepare for war is when all is going well.

That is the only time that you have to prepare anyway, after all, you cant start at the war front. Is it at the war front that you would start learning to shoot a gun?.

Is it when a boxer is in the ring with his opponent that he would start practicing jabs and hooks? Read your Bible and memorise Scriptures now so that when you need to confront the devil tomorrow, you can say, It is written like Jesus did in Matthew 4:1-11.

Pray hard now, so that if trouble were to arise tomorrow, you can easily decree and the storm would cease.

Some people wonder why we keep fasting again and again, particularly when all seems to be going well. I remember some years ago when I asked the people to fast for 100 days. Not long after that, a crisis broke out.

I told my people, Relax, no harm will come near you because you have already prepared; you’ve paid the price ahead of time. Those who didn’t join us in our fast were eventually forced to still do so because there was fear all around.

41. And the Philistine came on and drew near unto David; and the man that bare the shield went before him.

42. And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance.

43. And the Philistine said unto David, Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.

Yesterday, we looked at Davids attitude towards goal-getting. Today, we will be examining Goliaths attitude to goal-getting. At the first sight of David, Goliath despised him and probably relaxed.

I can imagine it was at this point that he let down his guard, seeing that his opponent had no weapon. He must have put aside his huge sword, dropped his shield and thrown both hands in the air to have a really good laugh before cursing David by his gods.

What a scene that must have been!. The first lesson from this story is that you must never underestimate the enemy. Some teenagers are overconfident like Samson and keep toying with sin.

They tell the opposite sex that God will prevent them from falling into temptation because they are Spirit-filled, whereas, the Bible already told us to “abstain from all appearance of evil (1 Thessalonians 5:22).

Similarly, a little indulgence in idleness or pleasure could make you poor (Proverbs 6:10). Another lesson is that you must avoid pride at all costs.

Goliath was proud and boasted by his gods while David confronted him in the name of the Lord. When God sees that you rely on Him for everything, He will definitely throw His weight behind you as a form of defense.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 MAY 2022 MESSAGE

There is a story of a fishermans son who had been taught how to swim long before he could speak properly. His tutor, the fisherman himself, was loving, but very demanding.

Every day, he insisted that this boy spent hours in the water, practicing new strokes and techniques. They practiced every day and no matter how well the boy swam, his father was never satisfied.

The most difficult part of the boys training was what his father called, the floating exercise. This involves moving around in small circles in deep waters, keeping only the head just above the waves for many hours.

At first, the boy endured it all hoping that one day his training period would be over. Later, he confronted his father, asking why the training sessions were so difficult.

You are training for the stormy day, the fisherman replied. He smiled gently and patted his boy on the back, adding, My son, there may be no storm for twenty, thirty or even sixty years, but one day, without notice, the storm will come. When it comes, those who are not prepared would pay the price.

Several years later, half of the men in the boys village went on a fishing expedition. The boy went with them. Big fishes did not seem to swim close to the villages anymore. To catch a big fish, men had to go really far into the sea.

On this fateful day, the storm came. It came suddenly and raged for hours. When it finally subsided, the men who stayed back at the village sent out a rescue team and the only living soul was the fishermans boy, afloat, moving round and round in circles.

As he climbed into one of the rescue boats, he remembered his father’s saying When the storm comes, those who are not prepared would pay the price.

He had seen several of his playmates and villagers perish because they could not float long enough as they had not practiced hard enough. He had seen unprepared people pay with their lives.

There is a storm coming soon. It is called the rapture. Only those who are prepared will be saved when it comes. That day, many people will weep and gnash their teeth.

Many will end up in hell, burning in agony forever because when things seemed rosy, they ignored God and His promptings to live holy. When that time comes, will you be amongst the survivors?

OPEN HEAVEN 9 MAY 2022 KEY POINT

Don’t mind the fact that many people are no longer preparing for the rapture; make sure you are ready so that you will not be weeping on that day.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 MAY 2022 HYMN

WHEN UPON LIFE’S BILLOWS YOU ARE TEMPEST TOSSED

1. When upon life’s billows you are tempest tossed,
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

CHORUS
Count your blessings, name them one by one; Count your blessings, see what God hath done; Count your blessings, name them one by one; Count your many blessings, see what God hath done.

2.. Are you ever burdened with a load of care? Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?
Count your many blessings, ev’ry doubt will fly,
And you will be singing as the days go by.

3. When you look at others with their lands and gold,
Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold;
Count your many blessings, money cannot buy
Your reward in heaven, nor your home on high.

4. So, amid the conflict, whether great or small, Do not be discouraged, God is over all;
Count your many blessings, angels will attend, Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end.
