OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 19 MARCH 2022 BIBLE READING ROMANS 8:9-15

9. But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

10. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

11. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

12. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

13. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

14. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

15. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 19 MARCH 2022 MESSAGE

No believer can live a victorious Christian life by his/her own effort and strength. As a matter of fact, it is impossible to enjoy the Christian journey without the help of the Holy Spirit.

John 6:63 says it is the Spirit that quickens while the flesh profits nothing. This means that everything done based on your effort actually profits nothing.

No wonder many Christians who work tirelessly and are proud of their achievements become angry when their efforts go unnoticed. This is because they performed those feats by their power and expected men to applaud them.

If you rely on the Holy Spirit to help you in all you do, you will do things effortlessly and not expect accolades from men, after all, they are not your source of strength.

Many Christians do Gods work by their knowledge and thus become weary, tired and frustrated. It is so for them because they do not have the Holy Spirit.

You need the Holy Spirit to quicken your body on a daily basis if you want to do it right. My dear, God is not looking for your ability but your total dependence on Him. This is why His word says For without me ye can do nothing (John 15:5).

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 19 MARCH 2022 KEY POINT

There can be no lasting victory in our own effort. You need the Holy Spirit to work through you.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 19 MARCH 2022 HYMN

O SPREAD THE TIDINGS ROUND

1. Oh, spread the tidings round,
Wherever man is found,
Wherever human hearts and
human woes abound;
Let every Christian tongue
proclaim the joyful sound:
The Comforter has come!

CHORUS
The Comforter has come,
The Comforter has come!
The Holy Ghost from heaven,
The Father’s promise given;
O spread the tidings ’round,
wherever man is found:
The Comforter has come!

2. Lo, the great King of kings,
with healing in His wings,
To every captive soul a full
deliverance brings;
And thro’ the vacant cells
the song of triumph rings:
The Comforter has come!

3. O boundless Love divine!
how shall this tongue of mine
To wond’ring mortals tell
the matchless grace divine:
That I, a child of hell,
should in His image shine!
The Comforter has come!

4. Sing, till the echoes fly
above the vaulted sky,
And all the saints above
to all below reply,
In strains of endless love,
the song that ne’er will die;
The Comforter has come!
