OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 11 JUNE 2023 BIBLE READING REVELATION 14:9-13

[9]And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

[10]The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

[11]And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

[12]Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

[13]And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.

 

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 11 JUNE 2023 MESSAGE

Many years ago, I had a young friend who was very fervent in the Lord. Suddenly, he died. I was devastated and cried to the Lord to bring him back to life. After a while, he woke up, said we were disturbing God and slept again. I had no choice, I had to let him rest, but I was glad that he was with the Lord.

As long as Jesus tarries, everyone will die. The difference, however, is that the righteous don’t die: they sleep because they will resurrect and reign with God on the resurrection morning, while the unrighteous will perish in the lake burning with fire. The question you need to answer is, what state will you be in when your time comes (a state of righteousness or unrighteousness)?

In Romans 10:3-4, Paul explained that you can only become righteous when you submit to the righteousness of God that was made available through Jesus Christ. Submitting to the righteousness of God is not just about giving your life to Christ, rather it is submitting to God’s will continuously and living daily for Him. Hence, if you want to reign with God in eternity, you have to start living righteously now.

HYMN 20 – HO, MY COMRADES! SEE THE SIGNAL

1. Ho, my comrades! see the signal
Waving in the sky!
Reinforcements now appearing,
Victory is nigh!

“Hold the fort, for I am coming,”
Jesus signals still,
Wave the answer back to heaven,
“By Thy grace we will, “

2. See the mighty host advancing
Satan leading on:
Mighty men around us falling,
Courage almost gone!

3. See the glorious banner waving!
Hear the trumpet blow!
In our Leader’s name we’ll triumph
Over ev’ry foe!

4. Fierce and long the battle rages,
But our help is near:
Onward comes our great commander,
Cheer, my comrades, cheer!
