OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 2 JUNE 2020 TUESDAY: WAITING TILL TOMORROW?

MEMORIZE: As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed. Proverbs 26:14

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 2 JUNE 2020 BIBLE READING PROVERBS 26:13-16

13. The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets.

14. As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.

15. The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth.

16. The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that can render a reason.

READ >> OPEN HEAVENS 2 JUNE 2020

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 2 JUNE 2020 MESSAGE

One of the traits of the sluggard is that most times, he refuses to make any effort. It is all noise but no movement with a lazy person.

His major problem is procrastination; he is always hoping for a tomorrow that never comes.

When will you do your homework?, Ah Tomorrow. The next day, he will say the weather appears too dull for his liking so he will say once again Tomorrow.

The tomorrow of a sluggard is a myth, a mirage. If you are fond of carrying over todays assignments, responsibilities and duties to the next day or some future date, you are a sluggard.

SHARE OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 2 JUNE 2020 TO SOMEONE TODAY!

If you cannot stand up and make the needed efforts that will give you the needed positive result, you are a sluggard.

Until you define your hours and show your mastery over laziness, you cannot amount to anything. The student who prays for good results but never studies hard enough will never excel.

God never assists the lazy, the person He promises to assist is the weak who relies on Him and has exhausted his strength while making efforts.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 2 JUNE 2020 PRAYER POINT

Until you attempt to move from where you are, you cannot move forward.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 2 JUNE 2020 HYMN

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.

OPEN HEAVEN 1 JUNE 2020 MESSAGE

After God created the heavens and the earth, He established some laws and principles to guide their operations and determine the course of everything in creation. Some of these laws are stated specifically in the Bible while some are implied.

Humanity has identified some of these laws and has captured many of them as adages and proverbs such as: whatever goes up must come down, The wages of sin is death, Whatever you sow, you shall reap, Givers never lack, Like begets like and so on.

These laws and principles are universal and quite consistent. Indeed, anything that goes up will surely come down, and like usually begets like in that children typically inherit the qualities and features of their ancestor. This principle is clearly defined in Matthew
7:17-18 as follows:

“Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.“

It is an established fact that a parents character is often replicated in his/her children. The Bible severally confirms this principle.

However, this principle is not immutable because good fathers sometimes have bad children as seen in Eli’s case, and bad fathers may have good children.

The Bible says God keeps His covenant and mercy with those who love Him and keep His commandments, to a thousand generations (Deuteronomy 7:9 ).

All parents in general and Christian parents in particular should have a time of personal reflection today, to examine themselves and consider the implications of their behaviour and attitude on their children for generations to come.

After this, they would need to make appropriate amendments. Live a life of total obedience to God from today, so your children can enjoy God’s blessings for generations to come (Psalms 112:1-2 ).

OPEN HEAVEN 1 JUNE 2020 PRAYER POINT

Father, please help me to leave a good inheritance for my children’s children, in the mighty name of Jesus.

OPEN HEAVEN 2 JUNE 2020 MEMORIZE: He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Psalms 107:20

OPEN HEAVEN 2 JUNE 2020 BIBLE READING MATTHEW 8:5-13

5. And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,

6. And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.

7. And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.

8. The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.

9. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

10. When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

11. And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

12. But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

13. And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

OPEN HEAVEN 2 JUNE 2020 MESSAGE

“And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.”

Genesis 1:3 There is power in God’s word. By it, He created the universe and still does wonders today. In today’s Bible reading,

Jesus had wanted to visit the home of a Centurion to heal his servant but was surprised when the Centurion asked Him to speak the word only (Matthew 8:8-10 ). Jesus spoke and the servant was indeed healed (Matthew 8:13 ).

This was a fulfilment of the prophecy He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destruction(Psalm 107:20).

A lot of people keep searching for deliverance, yet they disregard the most potent weapon – the word of God. For example, God’s word came to Cain but he ignored it.

The word was meant to warn him, to deliver him from the possible error and subsequent sorrow and perdition, but he let the opportunity slip away through envy (Genesis 4:6-7 ).

Dear reader, the word of God is coming to you today; do not ignore it. God’s word says Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. (Matthew 26:41).

What should you do?, Obey, watch, increase your prayer time so temptations will not sweep you away from the faith. For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace (Romans 6:14). Believe the word and you will be free from sin permanently.

Philippians 4:19 says But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. If you believe, poverty shall become history in your life.

If you are sick, 1 Peter 2:24 says by Christs stripes, we have been healed. Beloved, as you believe the Word today, you will experience a positive turnaround in the mighty name of Jesus.

OPEN HEAVEN 2 JUNE 2020 PRAYER POINT:

Father, please help me live a life of faith, so the Word You have sent may deliver me from all destructions.

IMMORTAL, INVISIBLE, GOD ONLY WISE

1. Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
Most blessed, most glorious,
the Ancient of Days,
Almighty, victorious,
Thy great name we praise.

2. Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
Nor wanting, nor wasting,
Thou rulest in might;
Thy justice like mountains high
soaring above
Thy clouds which are fountains
of goodness and love.

3. To all life Thou givest,
to both great and small;
In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;
We blossom and flourish as
leaves on the tree,
And wither and perish, but nought
changeth Thee.

4. Great Father of Glory,
pure Father of Light
Thine angels adore Thee,
all veiling their sight;
All laud we would render,
O help us to see:
‘Tis only the splendor of light
hideth Thee.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 1 JUNE 2020 MONDAY: IMPRESSING THE DEVIL?

MEMORIZE: And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. Matthew 4:3

BIBLE READING MATTHEW 4:1-11

1. Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

2. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.

3. And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

4. But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

5. Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,

6. And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

7. Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

8. Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

9. And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

10. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

11. Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS JUNE 2020 MESSAGE

One challenge our Lord Jesus faced immediately after His baptism was that of legitimacy. Satan told Him, If you are the Son of God, prove it by turning stones into bread.

In other words, Satan was refuting God’s public declaration concerning Him as well as Jesus claim of divine sonship.

Unfortunately, many believers today are trying to impress the devil by doing anything to prove him wrong, even to the point of contradicting God’s word.

If Jesus had wanted to impress the devil, he would have done what Satan asked just to prove a point.

Your friends will sometimes ask you to do wrong things and would call you names if you don’t. Rather than give in just to prove a point, stay calm and remember that God’s standard is the only thing you have to live by.

Also, one of the things the devil does best is telling lies. In a ploy to derail you, he’ll tell you that there will be rewards for you.

He’ll tell you to steal money so that you can enjoy the things that you will enjoy the stolen money with. He’ll tell you to tell lies so that you can get ahead.

But at the end of the day, they are all lies. No one truly gets a blessing through devious ways. Be wise, don’t try to impress the devil, he is merely seeking to destroy you.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 1 JUNE 2020 PRAYER POINT

The more of God’s word you store in your mind, the less the probability of you falling for Satan’s manipulations (Psalm 119:11).

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,
When 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.

MEMORY VERSE: This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 1 John 1:5

BIBLE PASSAGE: 1 JOHN 1:5-10

[5]This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

[6]If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:

[7]But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

[8]If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

[9]If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

[10]If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

INTRODUCTION:

“This then is the message which we have heard of him“. The message Apostle Paul wrote about refers to the sum of the revelation which Jesus gave the disciples (1 John 1:1-5).

The message is equally applicable to all mankind. It is also the principle on which the Christian faith depends. Jesus alone came to declare and defend the fullness of the truth which flows from the message with regards to sin and it’s consequences, the way of reconciliation, the duty of man and the rule by which men ought to live.

In this study, we shall be considering the substances of the message as well as the conditions and realities of true fellowship.

OUTLINES:

1. THE MESSAGE AND ITS IMPLICATION
2. TRUE FELLOWSHIP CONDITIONS AND IMPLICATIONS

1. THE MESSAGE AND ITS IMPLICATION

The substance of the message declared by Apostle John is in four forms:

Firstly, that God is light. “God is Light” not a light, but light Himself. He is the source and fountain of all rights. Christ is the true manifestation of God’s light to men. John 8:12. The phrase, “God is Light” must be understood as God is Love (1 John 4:8),
God is Good (Nahum 1:7), God is a Spirit
(John 4:24) etc.

Secondly, ‘…..in Him no darkness in God at all.(1 John 1:5). Darkness in this sense connotes the opposites of all the emblems of Light. (John 12:46). Whatever is the source of sin and misery is not in any way to be charged on God.(James 1:13-17).

Thirdly, ” if we that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth” (1John 1:6-7; 1 Corinthians 6:4; Galatians 5:6).

Finally, if we confess our sins, the blood of Jesus will cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:7,9).
There is no sin so great that it may not be removed by the blood of the atonement (Isaiah 1:18; Hebrews 4:14-16).

2. TRUE FELLOWSHIP CONDITIONS AND IMPLICATIONS

To achieve true fellowship with God we must work in accordance with the word of God by being truthful in admitting that we are all sinners. (1 John 1:8; Psalm 51:5; Romans 3:23).

We must be truthful in confessing our actual transgressions against God. (1 John 1:9; Prov. 28:13). Repent from the sins must and make peace with God. (1 John 1:9; Acts 3:19; Luke 13:1-5).

To maintain true fellowship with God, we must live a sin-free life. (1 John 1:17; Rom. 6:1-2). Thereafter, the realities of true fellowship are expressed in four forms:

i. We are cleansed from all sins when we confess them. (1 John 1:7, 9; Eph. 1:7; 1 John 2:2).

ii. If a believer falls into sin, he still has hope and can confess his sins and be cleansed again (1 John 1:9, 2:1-2; Gal. 4:19).

iii. We are deceived if we think that we can have fellowship with God, and yet lead a continuous sinful life. (1 John 1:6; Romans 6:1-2).

iv. Attempting to conceal our offences will be an effort in futility because they are known to God and will at some future period be revealed. (1 John 1:8; Prov. 28:13).

CONCLUSION: Walk in light and stay away from darkness.

QUESTIONS:
i. What is the implication of the message?
ii. Mention four realities of true fellowship.

ASSIGNMENT: Identify five characters of light and truth.

TOPIC: LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE THROUGH GIVING

MEMORY VERSE: 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.”

BIBLE TEXT: 1 Kings 17:8-16

8 And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,

9 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.

10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.

11 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.

12 And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.

13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

14 For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.

15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.

16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.

CENTRAL TRUTH: God loves a cheerful giver.

INTRODUCTION: The widow of Zarephath shone through giving her last meal to the man of God and the barrel of meal did not waste while the cruse of oil did not fail.
Giving is a command. Apostle Paul commanded the Philippian Church and he prayed for them.

B: BIBLICAL EXAMPLES OF GIVERS:

C. REWARDS / BENEFITS OF GIVING:

D. WHAT CAN YOU GIVE?

LIFE APPLICATION:

Giving is an attribute of God, which He wants Hid children to have. You give joy and happiness to people when you give. Giving is not only in monetary terms. It includes using your time, energy, talent and resources.

Whenever you give, give quality gifts. Give sacrificially and cheerfully. Give to God and fellow human being so you can receive mercy from God. Money given to God must not be corrupt.

CONCLUSION: The bible says: “Give and you shall be given.” – Luke 6:38. Giving is a command. It is beneficial to give. Whenever you give to the poor, you lend to God and He gives back to you with profit.

INVITATION: Your giving cannot be acceptable to God unless you give your life to Jesus Christ – 1Peter 1:19.

PRAYER POINT: Father, give me the grace to give.

PRAYER POINT: Father, please help me to live a justified life.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE:
Leader should ask members how they are to respond to trials and temptations.

MEMORY VERSE: Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 5:1

BIBLE PASSAGE: Psalms 32:1-2; Acts 13:38-39

Psalms 32:1-2
1 Blessed [is he whose] transgression [is] forgiven, [whose] sin [is] covered.

2 Blessed [is] the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit [there is] no guile.

Acts 13:38-39

38 # Be it known unto you therefore, men [and] brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:

39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

LESSON INTRODUCTION:

Justification is the act of grace through which one receives forgiveness and remission of sins and is counted righteous before God, through faith in the atoning blood of Jesus.

Justification takes place when God declares those who place their faith in Christ to be righteous. 2 Corinthians 5:21 says, “For he hath made him [to be] sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him” in other words, Jesus became our substitute on the Cross so that we could be made “just” or right with God.

TEXT REVIEW: JOB 14:7-9

i. Through Christ Jesus all sins is recovered and forgiven.

ii. Justification is a blessing that is available to those with a contrite spirit.

iii. Jesus is the only way every man can be justified.

iv. No man can justify himself

v. The way to salvation, redemption and justification is to believe in the person, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

LESSON OUTLINES

Apostle Paul writes of sin and justification in terms of two men, Adam and Christ. Through Adam, sin came into the world “wherefore, as by one-man sin entered into the world, and death by sin….” (Romans 5:12).

Through Jesus, righteousness came into the world “….even so by the righteousness of one of the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life” (Romans 5:18). The sacrifice of Christ covers our sins, allowing God to see us as perfect and unblemished.

Just as circumcision cannot justify the Isrealites, nor water baptism the Gentiles, so can church membership or confirmation not justify anyone by the standards of God’s righteousness and holiness.

Only faith in the atoning work of Jesus Christ on the Cross guarantees universal provision of salvation for all mankind, this could be appropriated on personal basis through faith in Christ Jesus.

JUSTIFICATION THEREFORE COMES:

1. BY GRACE: Titus 3:7, “That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life”.

2. BY FAITH: Romans 3:28, “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law”.

3. BY BLOOD: Romans 5:9, “Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him”.

4. BY HIS NAME:1 Corinthians 6:11, “….. but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God”.

SUMMARY:
It is only Jesus Christ that have the power to save all men from the terror to come.

CONCLUSION:

Haven been saved through faith in Our Lord Jesus Christ, the redeemed should have evidence to show for His justication. Before he was justified, the sinner was plaqued by the work of the flesh, but having been made a new creature, the life-style, speech, conduct and deposition of the redeemed is more of Christ, having been quickened by the spirit of God.

ASSIGNMENTS:

PRAYER POINTS:

1. Father, thank You for giving us Christ to die for our sins.

2. Father, please, increase my faith.

3. Father, I can’t do this on my own, give me grace to have ajustified life.

4. Father, save me and my family from the wrath to come.

5. Father, we pray for all sinners around us that You will open their eyes to see the love You have for them.
