OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TEENS WEDNESDAY 31ST JANUARY 2018: YOU CAN OVERTAKE

MEMORISE: …for more are the children of the
desolate than the children of the married woman,
saith the LORD. Isaiah 54:1b

Please read: 1 Samuel 2:20-21

MESSAGE:
A single contact with God can make the difference in the life of an individual.

There are people who study hard for exams, but their results still don’t show the hard work put in. If you are in such a situation, may God bring about a positive change in Jesus’ name.

When the hand of God was on Elijah in 1 Kings 18:41-46, he outran King Ahab who had earlier taken off with the speed of his horse drawn chariot. Open Heaven 31 January 2018

How can ordinary legs overtake horses?
When God lays His hands on you, your progress will be so rapid that no one will be able to catch up with you.

From the above quoted scripture, it is obvious that when God’s hand is upon you, the time which you lost that worked against you will be recovered, and will work in you favour.

Imagine a man on his two feet running faster than a chariot drawn by horses! This tells us that even when you lack the latest technology, you can still emerge the best if God’s hand is upon you.

Get ready, you are about to overtake those who have gone ahead of you. It is allowed!

PRAYER POINT:
Ask God to lay His hand upon you today, and you will begin to experience a turnaround in every negative situation in your life.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Exodus 25-26
Matthew 21:1-22

Hymn 6
1. Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home:

2. Under the shadow of your throne
Your saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient is your arm alone,
And our defense is sure

3. Before the hills in order stood
Or earth received its frame,
From everlasting you are God,
To endless years the same.

4. A thousand ages in your sight
Are like an evening gone
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.

5. Time, like an ever_rolling stream,
Soon bears us all away;
We fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.

6. Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Still be our guard while troubles last,
And our eternal home!
