OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 22 MAY 2020 FRIDAY: DROP THOSE TOYS

MEMORIZE: When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. I Corinthians 13:11

BIBLE READING HEBREWS 5:11-14

11. Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.

12. For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

13. For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

14. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

TODAY’S OPEN HEAVENS: OPEN HEAVENS 22 MAY 2020

MESSAGE

Being a teenager, you need to realise that you are no longer a child and so you have to drop childish things.

Now, you should be able to take responsibility for some things around the house.

You shouldn’t be spending all your time on social media, by the TV or playing video games. You are an adolescent now and an adolescent is a young adult.

Your parents should be able to rely on you to take good care of your younger ones. You should be able to cook, clean the house, help wash the car and change the tires when necessary.

No one needs to tell you when to study your books, because now you are mature enough to know that you need to read to be successful at your exams.

No one needs to remind you before you do certain things in the house.

You will soon be an adult, start taking responsibility now.

KEY POINT

Are you a mature teenager or still a baby of the house?

HYMN

Homes where the children are led to know

Homes where the altar fire burn and glow;
God give us Christian homes
God give us Christian homes
