OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 31 OCTOBER 2023 BIBLE READING JAMES 1:13-14

[13]Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

[14]But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 31 OCTOBER 2023 MESSAGE

Many Christians trade blames when things don’t go right. They query God for permitting evil circumstances around them.

Some outrightly renounce their faith and backslide in the process, but our Bible text warns: “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

Like I always say to my children, God is not unaware of any circumstance you may be in, whether pleasant or unpleasant, however, He wants you to maintain the right disposition throughout your trials.

Job’s ordeal could have made him curse God, but He chose to praise God instead.

Even when his friends and wife advised him to curse God and die, he chose to trust Him.

Ingratitude is an act of robbery against God. He expects that you will appreciate Him for the numerous blessings He has bestowed on you.

It is dangerous not to be thankful because your joy cannot be full if you are not thankful.

Don’t become ungrateful when faced with a challenge. Rather, praise God in advance for your victory.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 31 OCTOBER 2023 PRAYER POINT

Father, I thank You for the salvation of my soul through Christ. Please help me to remain grateful to You in every situation.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 31 OCTOBER 2023 HYMN

HYMN 11 – O LORD MY GOD! WHEN AM IN AWESOME WONDER,

1. O lord my God!
When am in awesome wonder,
consider all
The worlds thy hands hath made
I see the stars,
I heard the rolling thunder
Thy pow’r thro’ out
The universe displayed

2. And when I think
That God, His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scare can take it in;
That on the cross,
My burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died
To take away my sin.

3. Then through the woods
And forest glads I wander,
And hear the birds
Sing sweetly in the tress;
When I look down
From lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook
And feel the gentle breeze;

4. When Christ shall come
With shout of acclamation
And take me home,
What joy shall fill my heart!
Then I shall bow
In humble adoration
And there proclaim,
My God how great Thou art!
