OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TEENS THURSDAY 3RD MAY 2018: BE TRULY ROOTED

MEMORISE: Rooted and built up in Him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught,
abounding therein with thanksgiving. Colossians 2:7

Please read: Hebrews 6:1-2

MESSAGE:
The devil is always out to dish out evil to people, and we are to be ever ready to attack him when
he comes.

However, before taking on the devil,
be sure of your salvation. The salvation of many
today is questionable. Many are pretenders, and
have never really accepted Jesus Christ into their lives.

How would you know if you are truly saved? It is by assessing the change that your salvation has
brought to your life. Whenever a person gets truly saved, the Holy Spirit baptizes such a person and begins to dwell in the heart of that
fellow. His presence brings about a drastic change for better in the life of that individual
such that, people who used to know that individual will notice the positive changes.

A truly saved person will also hunger and thirst for the true Word of God, and will start to read his/her Bible in order to know as much as possible about Jesus Christ.

The time spent searching the Word
of God and listening to sermons that will build up your faith will enable you to be truly rooted in the
Word of God.

Are you truly rooted?

ACTION POINT:
Check your life to see if there are any changes to show that you are truly saved. If not,
earnestly pray to God and ask Him to save you genuinely and reveal Himself to you.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Kings 6-7
Luke 23:27-38

Hymn 7
1. I am Thine 0 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.

2. 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.

3. 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!

4. 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 4 May 2018

Open Heaven 4 May 2018 Friday – WHEN YOU NEED REVIVAL

Open Heaven 4 May 2018 Memorise: Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? Psalm 85:6

Read: Judges 6:1-6 Open Heaven 4 May 2018

1 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord: and the Lord delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years.

2 And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel: and because of the Midianites the children of Israel made them the dens which are in the mountains, and caves, and strong holds.

3 And so it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east, even they came up against them;

4 And they encamped against them, and destroyed the increase of the earth, till thou come unto Gaza, and left no sustenance for Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass.

5 For they came up with their cattle and their tents, and they came as grasshoppers for multitude; for both they and their camels were without number: and they entered into the land to destroy it.

6 And Israel was greatly impoverished because of the Midianites; and the children of Israel cried unto the Lord.

Hymnal: Sing Hymn 3

OPEN HEAVEN 4 MAY 2018 MESSAGE

From God’s perceptive, revival is a state of restoration of spiritual interest which has suffered setback or has been abandoned by God’s people. It connotes renewal or the return to original status from a state of coma or disuse. Based on the use of this term in some portions of Scripture, it is evident that it also means to literally bring back to life from the dead (1 Kings 17:22, 2 Kings 13:21). Open Heaven 3 March 2018

I therefore speak the word of authority to everything that is in a state of coma, and everything that is partially or completely dead in your life: receive complete revival by the power of resurrection in Jesus’Name.

In Revelation Chapters 2 and 3, the description of the spiritual state of most of the seven churches in Asia is indicative of spiritual conditions that call for revival. May the Good Lord heal and completely revive everyone reading this that may be in a backslidden state in Jesus’s Name.

OPEN HEAVEN 4 MAY 2018

The backsliding of a Christian does not just happen in one day. Rather, it is a gradual process that involves progressive character erosion. The end result is what people see, and then they begin to ask, when did this fellow become like this? This will not be your story in Jesus’ Name. For that not be your story, you need to be familiar with and sensitive to the conditions and circumstances that call for revival, in order to kick-start one whenever necessary.

There are many overt signs that make revival necessary in a person’s life. A child of God needs revival whenever he or she begins to experience spiritual dryness, as we see in the life of Samson in Judges 16:20-21.

When a child of God can no longer recognize the presence or absence of God in his or her life, this is indicative of spiritual dryness. Whenever a child of God finds himself or herself in physical or spiritual servitude, as it happened to the Isrealites in Judges 3:12-14, it is time for revival.

When sinful acts and wickedness such as those recorded in 2 Timothy 3:1-5become part of the daily lifestyle of a Christian, he or she urgently needs peace, joy and divine provision, just as it happened to the Israelites today’s Bible reading, revival is desperately needed. Also whenever a child of God falls into a state of self-doubt or uncertainty and he or she begins to feel insecure, as seen in Number 13:26-33, this is an obvious sign that revival is needed.

Revival is always preceded by sober reflection and a repentant heart, followed by earnest prayers to God for revival. Do you need revival. Do you need revival today? Reach out to God, and He will send His fresh fire into your heart.

Prayer Point – Open Heaven 4 May 2018 Friday

Father, please revive a desire for righteousness and heal every form of regression in Your Church today in Jesus’ Name.
