OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 11 NOVEMBER 2021 BIBLE READING JONAH 1:1-4

1. Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,

2. Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.

3. But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD, and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.

4. But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.

God desires progress for all His children. As a Christian teenager, you must not remain static for too long. You must keep moving. Don’t be like Jonah who tried to hinder his progress by running away from his divine assignment.

God sent him to Nineveh to instruct the people to repent from their evil ways but Jonah felt they should be punished for past evils. Jonah set out in the opposite direction and God blocked his progress.

Any direction a fellow takes contrary to Gods plan will not be in his/her interest at the end of the day. No one can make real progress while disobeying God.

For instance, a teenager who engages in examination malpractice to get an excellent result may gain admission into the University but will be living a lie or life of cheating just to have good results.

Progress does not necessarily entail the acquisition of material things or doing well academically and in your career. Progress is actually doing what God wants you to do per time. Any progress that does not originate from God is a curse in disguise.

True progress comes when you’re in obedience to Gods will.

WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD

1. When we walk with the Lord
In the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way,
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.

CHORUS
Trust and obey,
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

2. Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away,
Not a doubt or a fear,
Not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.

3. Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay,
Not a grief nor a loss,
Not a frown nor a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey.

4. But we never can prove
The delights of His love,
Until all on the altar we lay,
For the favour He shows,
And the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.

5. Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way,
What He says we will do,
Where He sends, we will go,
Never fear, only trust and obey.

1. Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

2. The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and

| will prepare him an habitation; my father’s God, and | will exalt him.

3. The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.

4. Pharaoh’s chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.

5. The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.

6. Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

7. And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.

8. And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.

9. The enemy said, | will pursue, | will overtake, | will divide the spoil; my Just shall be satisfied upon them; | will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

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?

This Thursday, I shall conquer!

OPEN HEAVEN 11 NOVEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

Children of God shake and bow in fear to the enemy only when they fail to recognize that their Heavenly Father is the Mighty Warrior who has never lost and will never lose a war. The Lord of hosts is our Banner. He is the only one that can protect and lead us into victory.

Bowing in fear will displease God, to say the least, because He has commanded that Thou shalt have no other gods before me (Exodus 20:3).

This is the reason Jesus Christ our Lord came to deliver those who, for the fear of death, subject themselves to everlasting bondage according to Hebrews 2:14-15 “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.”

I have experienced the mighty deeds of God in my life over and over again and o have come to the conclusion that there is no god as mighty as my Daddy in heaven – the Lord of hosts.

For example, I recall a time I was travelling with my driver and we got to the middle of a narrow bridge that could take only one vehicle at a time. We then suddenly discovered that a truck was also coming from the opposite direction on the same bridge. Only the intervention of the Almighty God could have made that bridge expand for my car and the truck to pass through without colliding with each other.

The Almighty God is the Greatest Warrior. The children of Israel experienced the mighty deeds of God and they composed a song as we read in today’s Bible text. I pray that the mighty deeds of God will produce your desired miracle today, in Jesus name.

You, however, have to become a child of God to enjoy His mighty deeds. The Israelites were regular witnesses to the mighty deeds of God because they belonged to Him they were His children. In order to experience the mighty deeds of God, you need to be born again.

This is the first mighty work the Lord does in the lives of His children the salvation of their souls (1 John 1:7-9). I pray that the mighty deeds of God will become a daily occurrence in your life, in the name of Jesus.

OPEN HEAVEN 11 NOVEMBER 2021 PRAYER POINT

Father, please make me experience Your mighty deeds this season and always, in Jesus name.

In Gods arrangement, romantic relationships are to be between the opposite sex and not same sex. Sadly, the world is fast embracing abominations of homosexuality and lesbianism.

Since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden, Satan has been creating contrary ideologies to Gods idea. How can a boy say he was created to have romantic feelings for another man or a girl to be romantically interested in another girl? This is demonic.

The men of Sodom and Gomorrah were the first to exhibit this when they asked that Lots male visitors be brought out to have sex with them.

Are you a male or female, having romantic feelings for someone of the same sex? Are you secretly following same-sex preachers or influencers on social media who are propagating an abominable gospel to encourage you on the path of destruction?.

My child, you need deliverance. Don’t be deceived, demons are responsible for the emotions you feel. It’s time you break their hold on you through fasting and prayer. Also, seek a godly and mature deliverance minister.

3. All to Jesus I surrender,
Lord, I give myself to Thee;
Fill me with Thy love and power,
Let Thy blessing fall on me.

Now I feel the sacred flame;
O the joy of full salvation!

OPEN HEAVEN 10 NOVEMBER 2021 MEMORIZE: Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay. Ecclesiastes 5:5

OPEN HEAVEN 10 NOVEMBER 2021 BIBLE READING PSALMS 15:1-4

1. Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

2. He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

3. He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

4. In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

OPEN HEAVEN 10 NOVEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

One common and deadly habit of many 21st century Christians is making a vow and not fulfilling it. This is foolishness of the highest order.

When funds are being raised for the work of God, careless children of God make very big vows in faith, that they are not able to fulfil. They justify themselves by saying God understands!.

Ecclesiastes 5:5-6 says: “Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay. Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was an error; wherefore should God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the work of thine hands?”

One of the most sensitive and delicate vows is that of the marriage covenant. People no longer accept the fact that marriage vows remain valid until death separates both the husband and the wife. They give all sorts of excuses for divorcing their spouses.

One of my children normally asks such people When you were saying for better for worse, did you put a limit to the extent of the worse you were talking about? Whoever decides to end a marriage is a covenant-breaker and has failed to fulfil the wedding vow!.

This is why some of Jesus disciples exclaimed, after He had explained the sanctity of the marriage vow to them ..If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry (Matthew 19:10). Jesus replied ..All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given… He that is able to receive it, let him receive it (Matthew 19:11-12).

Beloved, do not be a covenant-breaker, because no such person will enter into the Kingdom of God.

Have you made any vow before the Almighty God that you have broken? Repent now, seek His forgiveness and see to it that you take the necessary steps towards amending your ways and fulfilling such vows.

The Bible says: “But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.” “Ezekiel 33:19” Beloved, fulfil your vows.

OPEN HEAVEN 10 NOVEMBER 2021 KEY POINT

Think of all the unfulfilled vows you have made and make amends without further delay.

PRAISE TO THE LORD THE ALMIGHTY THE KING OF CREATION!

O my soul, praise him, for he is your health and salvation!
Come, all who hear; now to his temple draw near,
join me in glad adoration.

2. Praise to the Lord, above all things so wondrously reigning;
sheltering you under his wings, and so gently sustaining!
Have you not seen all that is needful has been
sent by his gracious ordaining?

3. Praise to the Lord, who will prosper your work and defend you;
surely his goodness and mercy shall daily attend you.
Ponder anew what the Almighty can do,
if with his love he befriends you.

4. Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in me adore him!
All that has life and breath, come now with praises before him.
Let the Amen sound from his people again; gladly forever adore him.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 NOVEMBER 2021 BIBLE READING LUKE 17:11-19

11. And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

12. And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:

13. And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.

14. And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.

15. And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,

16. And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

17, And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?

18. There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.

19. And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 NOVEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

There is one thing that irritates God which many don’t pay attention to and that is ingratitude.

In my village – Ifewara, in the South-Western part of Nigeria, our people would say Don’t follow-up on your benevolent act so that it would not appear as if you are seeking gratitude or worship.

God however, demands both from us and rightly so too, because we all owe everything we have to His benevolence. As a matter of fact, God follows up on His benevolent acts and that is why He told the children of Israel to bring one-tenth of His blessings upon their lives (Deuteronomy 14:22) and the first fruits from their farmlands and livelihood, to Him.

“Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest: And he shall wave the sheaf before the Lord, to be accepted for you…” “Leviticus 23:10-11”

The Psalmists knowledge of the dangers of ingratitude led him to say in Psalms 103:1-2 “Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the Lord O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.”

In our Bible reading today, the Lord Jesus asked ..Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? (Luke 17:17). The Lord then perfected the healing of the grateful man, making him whole.

It is most unfortunate that many children of God are already so used to miraculous acts of God as to take them for granted. They are no longer moved by these acts, invariably leading to an ungrateful attitude.

Newcomers to the Church who know what they have suffered at the hands of the devil and his cohorts give thanks to God for their miracles, whereas some pastors don’t testify of how God healed them of a headache because they don’t see it as a big deal.

Such people have forgotten that the headache they consider as ordinary has claimed the lives of millions of other people. My prayer is that you will never be ungrateful again, in Jesus name.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 NOVEMBER 2021 PRAYER POINT

Father, please forgive me for all actions or inactions that have amounted to being ungrateful to You. Please Lord, help me to be grateful to You at all times, in Jesus name.

Disobedience is a terrible thing. Although it seems harmless, it can undo a persons blessings.

In todays Bible reading, after God blessed Adam and Eve, they disobeyed Him, and as a result, their blessings were turned to curses. God is a merciful and loving Father but He is also a consuming fire to the disobedient (Deuteronomy 4:24).

God’s initial plan was that we would enjoy heaven on earth right from creation in the sense that everything would be available to human beings; there would be no lack, need, problems or prayer requests.

However, when God made man and gave them the will to make choices, Adam and Eve chose disobedience; they fell Gods hands and saw His unpleasant side.

Do you know that every time you eat, touch, say or do what God commands you not to, you are automatically reversing His blessings on your life?.

Check your life today to see if your struggles, hustling and sorrow are not as a result of disobedience. If they are, run back to God in repentance today.

22. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

My wife had a kettle that could boil water sufficient to make only four cups of tea at once. One morning, she made some tea and we sat to a breakfast of bread with tea.

At the first round, we took a cup each. When it was time for the second round, I realized the remaining tea could only fill one cup. I asked if she miscalculated that morning and she replied, “No”, I was confused.

Then, God spoke to me saying, Son, remember that you invited me in your prayers before you started eating. The missing cup of tea is to show you that I came to the table. I was touched that God joined us.

Some children have died as a result of food poisoning. This might have been averted if they prayed on the food before tasting or eating. It’s an act of reverence when you invite your Heavenly Father to join you at every meal.

You can be sure He will sanctify it and allow it nourish your body. Don’t take this for granted because God is interested in every detail of your life.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 8 NOVEMBER 2021 KEY POINT

Always invite Jesus to join in your meals.

WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS

1. What a Friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Ev’rything to God in prayer!
Oh, what peace we often forfeit,
Oh, what needless pain we bear-
All because we do not carry
Ev’rything to God in prayer!

2. Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a Friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our ev’ry weakness,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

3. Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.

OPEN HEAVEN 8 NOVEMBER 2021 BIBLE READING 1 TIMOTHY 3:1-7

1. This is a true saying, lf a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.

2. A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

3. Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;

4. One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;

5. (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

6. Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.

7. Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

OPEN HEAVEN 8 NOVEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

One thing a man or woman that God would use should bear in mind is that he or she must be blameless. This is the prerequisite for a child of God who wants to serve God as a worker or minister, at any level.

The Bible says “This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. A Bishop then must be blameless…” “1 Timothy 3:1-2”

When a person volunteers to serve the Lord, it is dangerous if the fellow is not clean in and out because the holiness of God could kill such a person.

The Bible says that Isaiah admitted his sinful state and God purified and cleansed him of his iniquity so that he could qualify as a true prophet. After this, the angel of the Lord came and touched him with a live coal from heaven and he was purged of his iniquity (Isaiah 6:5-7).

Here we see the mercy of God upon the vessel He decided to use for His glory. However, there is a lesson we must learn from this Scripture. The prophet admitted his sinful state and God came to his aid for cleansing.

How often do we seek the Lord for cleansing? In addition, for a fellow to be used by God, the life of such a person must glorify the Lord. God must be honoured in the life of such a fellow.

The Lord will show off such a fellow among His holy angels, then ultimately prosper and protect him or her eternally.

“And the Lord said unto Satan, Has thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?” “Job 1:8”

Though Job suffered many trials, the latter part of his life was much better than the former. Job 42:12 says So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning..Job had exactly double of the possessions he had lost to the attack of the devil.

God also gave him seven sons and three daughters, as before, but this time, his daughters were the most beautiful women in the land (Job 42:15). Job experienced this promotion because he remained blameless before God (Job 1:22).

Do you want divine promotion? Do you want to be used for the glory of God? Begin to walk blamelessly before Him (Genesis 17:1) from today and He will not only use you for His glory, He will also promote you beyond your expectations.

PASS ME NOT O GENTLE SAVIOR

1. Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

CHORUS
Saviour, Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

2. Let me at Thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief.

3. Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by thy grace.

4. Thou the spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me,
Whom have lon earth beside Thee?
Whom in heaven but Thee?
