OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 20 DECEMBER 2023 BIBLE READING MATTHEW 6:31-34

[31]Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

[32](For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

[33]But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

[34]Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

 

 

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 20 DECEMBER 2023 MESSAGE

As a child of God, when you come before God, the most important thing is Him, not you.

If you want your needs to be met, you will have to give God what He wants, and that is to put Him first in all things.

As His child, you have been provided with all you will ever need: you just have to reverence Him for you to have access to the things He has provided.

To show Him how important He is to
you, honour Him and His words.

Spend quality time in His presence, and things will begin to fall in place for you (1 Samuel 2:30b).

As a child of God, it is inappropriate to make demands from God without thanking Him for the things He has done for you.

Maybe you had goals that were not fulfilled in the course of the year, it does not erase the fact that God is a good God; so, thank Him still.

The fact that you are alive to read this devotional this year is something to be grateful for.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 20 DECEMBER 2023 HYMN

HYMN 1 – BE GLAD IN THE LORD AND REJOICE

1. Be glad in the Lord and rejoice,
All ye that are upright in heart;
And ye that have made Him your choice,
Bid sadness and sorrow depart.

CHORUS
Rejoice! Rejoice!..
Be glad in the Lord and Rejoice!
Rejoice! Rejoice!.
Be glad in the Lord and Rejoice!

2. Be joyful for He is the Lord,
On earth and in heaven supreme;
He fashions and rules by His words;
The “Mighty” and “Strong” to redeem.

3. What tho’ in the conflict for right
Your enemies almost prevail!
God’s armies, just hid from your sight,
Are more than the foes which assail.

4. Thơ’ darkness Surround you by day,
Your sky by the night be o’er cast,
Let nothing your spirit dismay.
But trust till the danger is past.

5. Be glad in the Lord and rejoice,
His praises proclaiming in song:
With harp, and with organ, and voice,
The loud hallelujahs prolong!
