As a saved teenager, you are different from others. Your identity with Jesus Christ sets you apart.

The Bible says in Romans 8:17 that because you are a child of God, you are an heir of God and a co-heir with Christ.

This makes you unique. Your life is no longer yours because you have given it to God, so, your every action is controlled by God.

You carry the Spirit of God and you must set yourself apart to a life of holiness.

Even though you live in this perverse world, you are not of the world (John 15:19).

You should not be involved in sexual activities, drinking, clubbing, jesting, lies and anything that is against the word of God.

Instead, occupy yourself with the godly activities (Colossians 3:16-17).

The words of your mouth, your thoughts and actions must set you apart from others (Ephesians 4:29).

The temptation to do what everyone is doing will come, but you will not fall for it in Jesus name. Do only what pleases God.

The fact that you are a child of God doesn’t mean that you cannot have fun.

There are activities you can engage in such as sports, debates and quiz competitions.

You can join a Christian dance group, watch Christian movies et cetera but say No to worldly entertainment.

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.

With grateful heart from higher ground.

Giving is a form of obedience to God.

As a child of God who carries the Holy Spirit, giving should be your lifestyle, just as obedience also.

When God blesses you, it is not just to enrich you but for you to enrich others.

The more you give, the more you will receive. The Bible says in Luke 6:38

“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal, it shall be measured to you again.”

Giving is a form of generosity to God. When you give, you are not only doing it to the receiver, but also to God.

God appears and interacts with us in many ways, which includes taking the form of strangers and the less privileged (Proverbs 19:17).

So, be nice to people and cultivate the habit of giving. It is the wise thing to do.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 DECEMBER 2020 MESSAGE

The second death is mentioned on multiple occasions in the book of Revelation and it is synonymous with the lake of fire.

It is a death in that it is an eternal separation from God, the Giver of life. It is called the second death because it follows the physical one.

Our memory verse (Revelation 21:8) explains the second death in the most detail.

From this Bible verse, we see a detailed list of those who will experience the second death.

Check to be sure that you don’t fit into this list, because the second death is an experience you should not want to be part of at all.

Check carefully, and if there is any one of these qualities present in your life, repent immediately.

“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.” – Revelation 2:11

The good news according to Revelation 2:11 is that no true believer will experience the second death.

While the unbelievers are burning in the lake of fire, we will be in the presence of God rejoicing and praising Him forever.

On which side do you want to be? If you want to be rejoicing in the presence of God forever, then you must overcome.

You must overcome all temptations you are facing; you must overcome the devil and all his tricks; you must overcome the lusts of the flesh.

The Bible tells us that no one will ever be tempted beyond what he or she can bear and that God will always make a way of escape for us (1 Corinthians 10:13).

If you however say you cannot overcome the temptations facing you right now, then you are asking for the second death which comes with eternal sorrow, anguish and no way of escape. It is your choice.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 DECEMBER 2020 KEY POINT

If you don’t overcome and your name is not found in the book of life, you will be thrown into the lake of fire for eternity. Are you ready to give all that it takes to overcome?

Take all my guilt away,

MEMORY VERSE: He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city”- Proverbs 16:32

BIBLE PASSAGE: GALATIANS 5:13-18

INTRODUCTION: Emotional intelligence’is the concept of knowing our feelings, managing and expressing them appropriately. It is also the ability to skilfully recognise or gauge how others feel and
modity our own behaviour depending on the situation at hand in order to live in harmony
with them.

It is obvious that our God is emotionally intelligent (Psalm 78:38). His emotions are positive, holy, noble and appropriate. Since we are created “in the image of God”, then it means that, as we mature in Christ, our emotions should, in great measure, share His divine qualities with the help of the Holy Spirit.

OUTLINES
1. Classification Of Emotions
2. Managing Emotions

CLASSIFICATION OF EMOTIONS
We shall attempt to break down emotions into three classes for easy identification.

1. Holy Emotions- these are emotions expressed by God such as compassion (Psalm 78:38), joy (Zeph. 3:17), jealousy (Exodus 20:5b) and holy indignation (Deut. 32:16). Jesus, during His earthly ministry, also expressed some emotions (Matthew 9:36; 21:12). Holy emotions can also accompany a believer’s life in the Spirit in times of praise, worship and adoration (Eph. 5:19). They are not necessarily religious or pious emotions. They are good and beautiful (Phil.4:8)

2. Human Emotions- these are based on our human nature and situations. Our Saviour and Lord, Jesus Christ expressed some natural human emotions during His time on earth for instance, He wept at the tomb of Lazarus (John 11:35), scattered and sent parking those trading in the temple of God (Matt. 21:12-13) and groaned in the spirit being troubled (John 11:33). A feeling or an expression such as happiness, excitement, surprise, ecstasy, grief, disgust embarrassment, pain, fear, sadness abandonment, sorrow, anxiety, stress, anguish and vulnerability are therefore, natural human emotions. For the ‘Christian’ they are temporary. While some of these emotions may be bad, they are not evil or toxic if and when properly managed.

3. Fleshly Emotions – These are toxic, poisonous and destructive emotions such as untamed anger, malice, envy, selfish ambition, carnality, bitterness, lusts, hatred, etc. They are closely tied up with the works of the flesh and with evil deeds (Galatians 5:19-21). Their outcome is spiritual death (Romans 8:6,13; Galatians 5:21b). These emotions were not part of mankind at creation (Genesis 1:31a). Fleshly emotions constitute what Apostle Paul calls the ‘old man’ that must be put off and crucified (Romans 6:6; Ephesians 4:22).

READ >> OPEN HEAVENS 6 DECEMBER 2020

MANAGING EMOTIONS
The concept of ’emotional intelligence’ is quite helpful in opening our understanding to
how we can manage our emotions and relate better with others. Here are some practical
steps to take in order to be emotionally balanced.

1. Self- awareness: identity and admit that you have issues with emotions and have a clear picture of how you appear to most people in order to make self-improvements (2Cor.13:5).

2. Selif-control: regulate your emotions by putting it under check so that it does not take you over. Proverbs 16:32; 29:11; Eccl.7:9).

3. Seif-motvation: regardless of the situation or circumstance, rather than being depressed, moody, sad or aggressive, try to encourage yourself and maintain a stable temper (1Samuel 30:6).

4. Self-expression and empathy: You should always find an appropriate channel and time to politely express your feelings (Proverbs 15:1) and judge people less by seeing things from their points of view (Matthew 7:1-5; 1Peter 3:8-9).

5. Self/’social-skill development: Develop the right level of rapport (relationship) with people you come across and be patient in your dealings with them (Proverbs 16:32, 18:24; Romans 12:18;2Timothy 2:24).
However, all the practical approaches mentioned above may not yield the expected result unless the believer yields himself first to the Holy Spirit who helps him/her respond differently to each of the three categories of emotion. The Holy Spiit rejoices and assists us when we engage in holy responses. He produces them within us so they can justly be called “the fruit of the Spirit” (Galatians 5:22-23). On the other hand, the Holy Spirit comforts us when the human emotions such as grief overwhelm us (John 14:16). Lastly, He helps us to break the grip of fleshly emotions such as hatred, lust and revenge. In fact the Spirit wars against such impulses so that we cannot fully give way to our worst desires (Galatians 5:16-18). Hence, the Holy Spirit becomes the source of our
intelligence when we take heed to His promptings.

CONCLUSION: The power to defeat deep and difficult emotions comes from God and
involves the human spirit coming into contact with God’s Spirit.

QUESTIONS:
1. What are the classifications of emotions?
2. What role does the Holy Spirit play in helping believers manage their emotions?

FURTHER READING: MON: Phil.4:6; TUE; Jn.16:3; WED: Matt.6:34, THUR: Matt.11:28,
FRI: Joshua 1:9, SAT: 1 Peter 5:6-7; SUN: 1Corinthians13:4.

ASSIGNMENT: Students should identify five things they have been doing to manage negative emotions in their lives.

MEMORY VERSE: “And it came to pass in those days, that He went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.” – Luke 6:12

TEXT: Matthew 6:6-8

PRAYING ON MOUNTAINS: What is a mountain? In the ordinary point of view, mountain is a large mass of earth and rock rising above the common level of the earth or adjacent land, usually given by geographers as above 1000 feet (or 304,8 metres) in height, though such masses may still be described as hills in comparison with larger mountains.

Praying on a mountain could mean, climbing the physical mountain for prayer. It could also mean, being in a solitary place (not necessarily a physical mountain) to pray without any distraction. It is a place of spiritual retreat. The important thing is that your mind does not wander away.

a,) Whether you are on the mountain for worship or prayer, or both, you must do so in the spirit. – John 4:23-24

b,) Should you plan to go to the mountain for prayer or personal retreat / revival, be focused on meeting Jesus Christ only and not man, for many false prophets abound everywhere. – Matthew 7:15, 24:11

c,) Jesus prayed on the mountain, – Luke 6:12 and He also prayed in the garden of Gethsemane. – Matthew 26:36-39

d,) Jesus prayed all night, so Christians must hold vigils like their master, Jesus Christ. – Luke 6:12, Luke 18:1

CONCLUSION:The importance of prayers to believers cannot be over emphasized. So believers in Christ must pray always (Ephesians 6:18), irrespective of being on a physical mountain or not. We must pray in the spirit without distraction.

OPEN HEAVEN 8 DECEMBER 2020 MESSAGE

When we talk about greatness, we are talking about influence.

You cannot call a man great if he has all the money in the world but nobody likes or obeys him.

My mother used to pray for me thus: “You will call one person and many people will respond”.

She did not need to literally say that I would be great even though that is what the prayer meant; all she had to say was that I would be a man of influence and the greatness was sure.

When the Bible was talking about the great woman of Shunem, it records that when the Prophet asked if she would want a recommendation to the king or the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, she replied that she did not need assistance in that regard (2 Kings 4:13).

She was a woman of influence.

Since greatness is influence, then I’m sure you know that the one who is greater than the greatest is the Most Influential One.

So, how great is our God? According to Philippians 2:9-11, our God has influence in heaven, influence on earth and influence underneath the earth.

He also has influence over the wind and the sea. Mark 4:41 says the wind and the sea obey Him.

He has influence over fire; He can turn the fiery furnace to an air-conditioned room.

“The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.” – Proverbs 21:1

The above passage says that God is so influential that He has complete control over the most influential people in the world.

There is no area or person over whom our God does not have influence – none!

Now, when God wants to make someone great, what He does is to give the fellow some of His influence.

We see that very well in the case of Jesus Christ.

After Jesus had paid the price for the redemption of man, God’s reward to Him was influence.

This tells us one thing: the way to true greatness is to please God.

I can confidently say by God’s grace that I am a great man because I strive to please Him every day of my life.

Do you want to be great?, Surrender all to Jesus and He will endow you with His glory (John 17:20-22).

Light is such an interesting thing. It brightens up a place and allows things to be seen.

Consider the following characteristics of light. Firstly, light gives birth to light (John 8:12, James 1:17).

The Bible tells us that God is light. This means that if you are a born again child of God, you are light.

Secondly, light chases darkness away. A little spark of light can brighten an area covered in darkness (John 1:5).

The third characteristic is, light shines no matter how small or how far it goes.

Lastly, little light can become great light. You may think you are young and your light is small, but if you stay close to God, I assure you that your light will be great.

Your light must however, be protected because the enemy is working tirelessly to dim your light.

One way to make sure your light is constantly shining is by obeying the word of God, praying and completely relying on the Holy Spirit.

The memory verse for today says you are the light of the world.

In other words, it is your duty to shine. God sees you as light, your light must brighten the world.

Your life must radiate the glory of God (Matthew 5:16). Make a decision today to keep shining for God.

When God created the earth, He looked at it and saw that it was very good (Genesis 1:31).

Afterwards, He gave mankind dominion over all the resources. As a result, prosperity became the inheritance of every man.

Unfortunately, man lost these benefits after falling into sin. Thankfully, God raised a second Adam to reconcile man to Himself.

Beloved, as soon as you are reconciled to God by connecting to the second Adam – Jesus Christ, whatever God has will become yours.

What does God have? He owns the cattle upon a thousand hills (Psalms 50:10), so you should not lack food.

Among other things, gold and silver also belong to Him (Haggai 2:8).

Being God’s child means you have a mansion in the most beautiful estate ever, where the ground is paved with gold. Isn’t that wonderful?.

“But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is He that giveth thee power to get wealth, that He may establish his covenant which He sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.” – Deuteronomy 8:18

If we would enjoy divine prosperity, we must not forget God because it is only through His power we can get wealth.

This means if someone does not have enough power to get wealth, most likely, such a person has forgotten God.

Have you forgotten God?, How is your relationship with Him?.

When last did you praise and worship Him alone without making requests?, When last did you study your Bible all by yourself?.

Those who have not forgotten God obey His every word, so He gives them everything they ask for. Job 36:11 says:

“If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.”

Seek God first. Prosperity will follow (Matthew 6:33). God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).

OPEN HEAVEN 7 DECEMBER 2020 HYMN

THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSING

1. There shall be showers of blessing:
This is the promise of love;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Saviour above.

CHORUS
Showers of blessing,
Showers of blessing we need;
Mercy drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.

2. There shall be showers of blessing-
Precious reviving again;
Over the hills and the valleys,
Sound of abundance of rain.

3. There shall be showers of blessing;
Send them upon us, O Lord!
Grant to us now a refreshing;
Come, and now honor Thy Word.

4.There shall be showers of blessing;
O that today they might fall,
Now as to God we’re confessing,
Now as on Jesus we call!

5. There shall be showers of blessing,
If we but trust and obey;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
If we let God have His way.
