OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 15 AUGUST 2023 MEMORIZE: Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. 1 Corinthians 12:3

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 15 AUGUST 2023 BIBLE READING MATTHEW 7:15-20

[15]Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

[16]Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?

[17]Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.

[18]A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

[19]Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

[20]Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 15 AUGUST 2023 MESSAGE

It is not in doubt that false prophets have put Christianity in a bad light to unbelievers. This is because they go about using the name of the Lord to commit fraud and all other atrocities, therefore, we are not wrong to call them agents of the devil. False prophets are deceptive: you have to know the word of God (the truth) to decipher their teachings.

False prophets speak false prophecies and give false teachings and visions, they are full of immorality and do all that God is against. They also lie to manipulate their victims. Any prophet or pastor teaching against Biblical doctrines is a false prophet.

As a child of God, it is your duty to know when a so-called man of God is truly one. This is the reason why God has given His children a discerning spirit. The only way to avoid being a victim of false prophets is to be conversant with the Scriptures such that no false prophet can sway you.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 15 AUGUST 2023 KEY POINT

Study the word of God to know the truth.

HYMN 18 – 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 nor a fear,
Not a sigh nor 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 16 AUGUST 2023 BIBLE READING ISAIAH 58:8-14

8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy reward.

9 Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;

10 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noon day:

11 And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.

12 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.

13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:

14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

OPEN HEAVEN 16 AUGUST 2023 MESSAGE

Another symptom of darkness is poverty. Bartimaeus was not just blind, he was also poor. The Bible recorded that he was a blind beggar. Any situation that involves begging to eat is called poverty.

The Almighty God’s plan is not for you to be a beggar, but rather that you would prosper. For several years, the enemy kept the Church in darkness and pastors began to equate holiness with poverty.

The devil knows that you can spread the gospel faster if you have money. I don’t know about you, but in the name of Jesus Christ, Iam going to prosper because light stands for prosperity.

Darkness works to make you poor, but it is the duty of the Light to make you rich. (2 Corinthians 8:9) says clearly:

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. He became poor that you, through His poverty, might become rich.

If you are truly a child of God, carrying the Light of the Almighty within you, I have good news for you: all those who have been saying that you are going to die poor shall be disappointed. (3 John 2) says He wishes above all things that you would prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.

If God wishes that you prosper as long as your soul is prospering, it doesn’t matter what the devil may be planning – you will be prosperous.

There was a very wealthy man who quarreled with his wife. She said to him, “I will see to it that you trek in this Lagos”.

This man was so wealthy that he had more than 14 cars, so he just laughed the threat off. However, by the day this man came to our Church for the first time, he had only one car left and 50 kobo with him.

He wanted to buy food with the money but knew that if he did, he would end up walking home like his wife had said, so he decided to just buy fuel. When he came to the Light, the tide turned in his favour.

The day he gave his testimony, he was dedicating two new houses. God can take you from abject poverty to affluence if you give your life to Him and live holy.

OPEN HEAVEN 16 AUGUST 2023 PRAYER POINT

Father, please let Your light send the darkness of poverty far away from me, in Jesus’ name.

AMAZING GRACE

1. Amazing grace! How sweet the sound!
That saved a wretch like me!
I was once lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.

2. Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
‘Tis grace that brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

3. The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.

4. Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

5. The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.

6. When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise,
Than when we’d first begun.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 14 AUGUST 2023 MESSAGE

Two Christian teenage girls had a discussion about safe s*x one day and came up with the following conclusion:

1. Teenage life is boring without s*x.

2. The use of condoms will prevent pregnancy and keep you safe.

3. Practicing safe s*x prevents the spread of S*xually Transmitted Infections/diseases (STIs/STDs).

My response to the above is:

1. The only boring life is a life without Christ: a life that allows people or society to dictate for a fellow.

Many teenagers get confused about many things because they are not yet friends with the Holy Spirit.

If you have a relationship with Him, you can talk about your emotional desires and ask Him for grace to stay pure.

There are still many virgins like you out there who honour God with their bodies.

2. Condoms can prevent pregnancy, but they won’t prevent the exchange of spirits. Some destinies have been truncated and glories aborted because the victims succumbed to s*x with or without condoms.

3. STI/STDs are nothing compared to Spiritually Transmitted Problems. Don’t get entangled in the unseen problems or curses lurking over those who are involved in premarital s*x.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 14 AUGUST 2023 ACTION POINT

The next time he/she asks for s*x, tell him/her to wait till marriage, then speak to a counselor.

OPEN HEAVEN 15 AUGUST 2023 MEMORIZE: As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. John 9:5

OPEN HEAVEN 15 AUGUST 2023 BIBLE READING 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.

OPEN HEAVEN 15 AUGUST 2023 MESSAGE

There are certain things in life that are very difficult to define. One of such things is light. If someone asks you, “What is light?”, you may simply say it is the opposite of darkness.

However, to understand light, you need to understand what darkness stands for.

Our case study for this series will be Bartimaeus – a blind man who met Jesus and the darkness in his life ended. When you look at Mark 10:46-52, you will see some of the things that darkness portrays and thus identify certain things hidden in light.

For example, darkness equals sickness. If darkness signifies sickness, then light signifies healing which is embedded in Jesus Christ the Light of the world (Exodus 15:26).

When you have a relationship with Jesus, sickness cannot continue to stay in your life. It is no news that darkness and the devil go hand in hand. When you look at Luke 13:11-17, you will see clearly that Jesus Christ called the spirit of infirmity an agent of the devil.

Sickness and disease therefore have their origin in darkness. However, the light of God can see forces of darkness and deal with them completely.

There was a brother who was going to the USA for further studies and he threw a party before his departure. In the middle of this party, an enemy came and planted something evil into his life.

From the day he arrived in the USA, he began to feel a pain in his stomach. All kinds of tests were conducted to no avail, yet the pain intensified. He struggled for six years, taking all manner of drugs until he finished his studies.

When he returned to Nigeria, he heard that we were having a programme at Ibadan and decided to travel all the way from Zaria. The devil did everything to stop him but he finally made it on the last day of the programme.

During the last message, he sat down and as the word of God was coming forth, the light of God hit him and suddenly, he began to shout, “I am free” because the pain of more than six years had disappeared.

I prophesy to you: It doesn’t matter how long you have been carrying that sickness or disease; my Daddy will chase it out today, in the mighty name of Jesus.

OPEN HEAVEN 15 AUGUST 2023 PRAYER POINT

Father, please chase out every form of darkness in my life now, in Jesus’ name.
