OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 19 JUNE 2023 BIBLE READING 2 SAMUEL 11:1-17

[1]And it came to pass, after the year was expired, at the time when kings go forth to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried still at Jerusalem.

[2]And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.

[3]And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?

[4]And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.

[5]And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child.

[6]And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David.

[7]And when Uriah was come unto him, David demanded of him how Joab did, and how the people did, and how the war prospered.

[8]And David said to Uriah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king’s house, and there followed him a mess of meat from the king.

[9]But Uriah slept at the door of the king’s house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.

[10]And when they had told David, saying, Uriah went not down unto his house, David said unto Uriah, Camest thou not from thy journey? why then didst thou not go down unto thine house?

[11]And Uriah said unto David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in tents; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields; shall I then go into mine house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? as thou livest, and as thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.

[12]And David said to Uriah, Tarry here to day also, and to morrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.

[13]And when David had called him, he did eat and drink before him; and he made him drunk: and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but went not down to his house.

[14]And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.

[15]And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.

[16]And it came to pass, when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men were.

[17]And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and there fell some of the people of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 19 JUNE 2023 MESSAGE

There is a popular saying that “an idle man is the devil’s workshop”. If you are in doubt, ask King Solomon. When he was done building God’s temple and completing all the assignments his father gave him, he was left with nothing to do. It was in his idleness that he drifted from the will of God and started marrying strange women and building temples for strange gods.

Learn from Solomon and avoid being idle; it can cost you your life and destiny. King David was also a victim of idleness, which made him fall into adultery with Bathsheba and kill her husband (2 Samuel 11:2-17). This eventually brought a curse on his lineage.

Your free time could become a tool in the devil’s hands; fill it with meaningful activities. If you find yourself spending one hour or more at a stretch watching videos and pictures on social media, be careful. Don’t engage in things that will kill your destiny all in the name of “killing time”.
