OPEN HEAVEN 24 FEBRUARY 2021 MESSAGE

The word perseverance can be simply described as being persistent in doing something despite difficulties and delay in achieving success.

No one can excel in the Christian journey without perseverance. (2 Timothy 4:2) encourages us to:

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.

The fruit of the Spirit – longsuffering (Galatians 5:22) is exhibited in the life of a believer who perseveres.

In the Christian race, without perseverance it is very easy to fall away from the faith. No wonder Jesus said in the book of Matthew 24:13:

But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Endurance and perseverance are integral to our Christian walk.

A believer who cannot endure suffering will be unable to do the will of God.

Suffering is one of the ways God purges us of every impurity.

Without suffering, the flesh will grow strong and hinder your spiritual growth (Isaiah 48:10).

What kind of hardships should believers endure?.

1. Persecution: Jesus said believers will be persecuted for believing in Him. John 15:20 says “…If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you...”

2. Affliction: Sometimes believers would be afflicted but the Bible says it is working for us “… a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory” (2 Corinthians 4:17).

3. Momentary Lack: Apostle Paul says in Philippians 4:12 “I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: everywhere and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.”
4.
5. So when lack comes along, we must learn to endure in faith knowing that storm will be over soon.

It is however comforting to know that despite all the challenges we will face in our Christian race; the crown of life awaits us if we persevere (Revelation 2:10).

OPEN HEAVEN 24 FEBRUARY 2021 KEY POINT

Would you endure hardship for the sake of the gospel?

OPEN HEAVEN 24 FEBRUARY 2021 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 victory unto victory
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 FOR TEENS 22 OF FEBRUARY 2021

THEME: UNDEFILED 1

MEMORISE: Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD. Psalm 119:1
READ: PSALMS 119:1-3
[1]ALEPH. Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.
[2]Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.
[3]They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.

READ >> OPEN HEAVEN 22 FEBRUARY 2021

MESSAGE:

To be undefiled means to be unpolluted, pure, virtuous or upright. The undefiled is one who had the opportunity to be defiled, yet, chose not to.

Sexual purity is a virtue that is becoming a farce in this generation. God expects all His children to be pure, so, you have to choose not to be defiled, no matter what it takes.

I know that as a teenager, you are faced with many temptations. Sometimes, you feel left out because you are not doing what others are doing.

Don’t allow what others think of you determine how you behave, rather, be guided by the word of God. This is because you will be judged by the word on the last day.

Sex is overrated: you may not understand this until you get married. Stay pure till your wedding night because it has a lot of advantages.

One, you will not fall prey to Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD) and unwanted pregnancy as a lady. Two, you will be blessed by God according to our memory verse. Also, when you eventually get married, your spouse will call you blessed.

REFLECTION: Sexual purity is not to be traded with any pleasure at all.

HYMN 9: I AM THINE O LORD

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.

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.
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.
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 23 FEBRUARY 2021 MESSAGE

It is shocking how believers engage in all manner of conversations and associations carelessly.

If you know the value of your heart, you would guard it jealously.

In (2 Samuel 13) we see a classic case of what happens when a person does not guard his or her heart.

Amnon who was a prince and could have married any lady in the land lusted after his half-sister who was a virgin.

He then engaged in a seemingly harmless conversation with a friend who watered the seed of evil already planted in his unguarded heart.

The evil desire then blossomed and led to his untimely death in verse 28 and 29 of the same chapter.

The man who advised him to rape his sister is the same one who announced his death to David, his father (2 Samuel 13:32).

Choose those you associate with wisely (Psalms 1:1).

Be careful of whom you listen to and be mindful of what you let into your heart. Jesus said in Matthew 5:8:

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

If you allow impurities to dwell in your heart, forget about ever seeing God.

In Matthew 12:34, Jesus said:
…for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

In other words, your lifestyle and speech are an overflow of the meditation of your heart.

Believers who listen to worldly music and also allow their children to listen to them are courting trouble.

The result may not be instant. But it will accumulate and surely begin to yield ungodly fruits.

King David knew the secret to clean heart and he shared this in Psalm 119:11:

Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that might not sin against thee.

Meditating on the Scriptures, listening to recordings of sound teachers of the gospel and keeping company with fellow believers are some of the primary ways through which we can keep our hearts guarded.

You can only express what you have in your heart.

Thus, if you constantly expose your heart to God’s word, you would guard your heart from all forms of ungodliness.

Motivational words cannot cure sinful thoughts, only the word of God can.

Fill your heart with the word of God.

OPEN HEAVEN 23 FEBRUARY 2021 KEY POINT: Guard your heart diligently with the word of God.

RCCG HOUSE FELLOWSHIP LEADER’S MANUAL 21 FEBRUARY 2021

TOPIC: IDLE YOUTHS ARE VULNERABLE TO VICES AND TEMPTATIONS

HOUSE FELLOWSHIP ANTHEM

OPENING PRAYER: Father, please provide jobs for our youth and occupy them for Your glory.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE: The leader should ask the members what they have learned from last week topic.

MEMORY VERSE: “The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.” Proverbs 12:24

BIBLE TEXT: 2 Thessalonians 3:6-16

READ >> OPEN HEAVENS 21 FEBRUARY 2021

LESSON INTRODUCTION: There is a popular adage that says ‘an idle mind is the devil’s workshop’. No one was created a non entity by God. Everybody has a talent embedded in him or her. Our today’s text is in consonance with it.

Today you can bear witness that some physically challenged people are displaying their talents and skills in various vocations. So, any youth or anybody who says he/she has nothing to do should refrain from being idle and check inward.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE ‘VULNERABLE’ (see today’s heading)? It is when someone is exposed to the chance of being attacked or harmed, either physically or emotionally. Then, what are ‘vices’ ? Vice or vices mean bad habit. It therefore means that if you are idle, there is that tendency of being prone or exposed to some habits that will be hazardous to the society.

TEXT REVIEW: 2 Thessalonians 3:6-16
i. Be occupied and never be weary in good deeds.
ii. The glory of the youth is in their strength.

LESSON OUTLINES: There are two outlines:
A: SOME YOUTH WHO DISTINGUISHED THEMSELVES THROUGH HARD WORK IN THE BIBLE:

1: DAVID: He was an instrumentalist and this took him to the palace. – 1 Samuel 16:16-23

2: JOSEPH: Even as a slave, his master recognised his hard work and handed over his properties to Joseph to manage. – Genesis 39:1-4

B: IDLE YOUTH WILL BE EXPOSED TO MANY EVIL THINGS SUCH AS:

1: Hard drugs: Drug barons may lure them to carry drugs for them.

2: Armed robbery: They may be lured to join armed robbery gangs.

3: Hired assassins: They may be recruited into a killer squad.

4: Kidnapping and banditry: They may induce them to become their members.

5: Lesbianism, gay etc.: Satan dangles huge money to lure idle people into his kingdom.

6: They may be lured to join secret cults for quick wealth and fame.

7: Male and female prostitution. Etc..

ACTIVITY: In this period of high rate of unemployment, how can a youth engage himself/herself?

SUMMARY: Please youths engage yourselves in any legitimate work to avoid social vices.

CONCLUSION: Idleness is a destructive weapon in the hand of the devil against his victims. Please look for any legitimate and profitable venture to do. Then you will be surprised how God will bless the work of your hand.

PRAYER POINTS:
1. Father, thank You for the salvation of my soul.
2. Father, deliver our youth and the unemployed from the spirit of idleness today.
3. Genesis 16:19 – Father, please open my eyes to see that talent you deposited in me.
4. Father, please answer Daddy G.O.’s prayer over our children that they will be greater than their parents.
