OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 9 SEPTEMBER 2022 BIBLE READING JEREMIAH 18:1-6

1. The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

2. Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words.

3. Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.

4. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.

5. Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

6. O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 9 SEPTEMBER 2022 MESSAGE

Any life outside God cannot be well formed and anyone who understands this is wise. The mistake some believers make is that they want to be called Christians, yet enjoy the pleasures of the world. This is impossible. You are either for God or the devil.

For some, the Christian life is boring and cumbersome. It is so to them because they have not completely yielded to the moulding of the Potter. If a lump of clay cannot tell the potter how it should be moulded, how then can a child of God dictate how he/she wants to live his/her life?

My child, the beautiful thing is that any life moulded by God will be a model to all. Don’t think too far, I am an example. I know who I was until I allowed Christ into my life and gave Him the right to mould me.

Today, people talk about Adeboye. If I make a statement, particularly to my children, before the end of the sermon, the press would have published it online; by the following day, people would be reading about it in Newspapers. I am just Adeboye – a boy that had no shoes until he was eighteen years old. Allow God to mould you.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 9 SEPTEMBER 2022 KEY POINT

Do you want to be the cynosure of all? Allow the Potter to mould you as He wishes.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 9 SEPTEMBER 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!
