OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 23 SEPTEMBER 2020 MESSAGE

Not everyone hears from God. It is better however, that you are amongst those that hear from Him because it will make your life beautiful.

To hear from God, your ears must be open because God seeks those whose ears are open to receive from and obey Him.

To hear from God, you must be awake, that is, you must be sensitive to His voice. Ephesians 5:14 says:

“Wherefore He saith, awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.”

God compares anyone that is sleeping to a dead person.

So you need to wake up, if you are sleeping in the spirit.

Note that this sleep is not the same as your state of mind and body when you are not performing any physical exercise and your eyes are closed while lying on a couch or a bed.

Rather, it is not watching and praying. When you don’t give quality time to prayer and fasting, then you are sleeping.

To hear from God, you also need to be close to Him. If you draw nearer to God, He will draw nearer to you.

You can draw nearer to Him by spending time in worship. Then you keep quiet and listen.

God will speak to you and when He does, obey promptly.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 23 SEPTEMBER 2020 KEY POINT

Wake up from your spiritual slumber or sleep.

Him thou lovest to obey;

”Watch and pray!

Hung the issue of the day;

“Watch and pray!
