OPEN HEAVENS FOR TEENS 3 OCTOBER 2024 MESSAGE
Many years ago, while I was still lecturing at the university, I had friends with whom I often drank alcohol just to relax.
They visited me often because they knew that they would be entertained with different alcoholic drinks.
However, when I gave my life to Christ, I knew that I had to stop the habit because it was a sin.
Unfortunately, my friends didn’t understand my resolve. They criticised me for becoming someone who only served soft drinks and water to them.
They argued that God was not against drinking alcohol, especially if a fellow does not get intoxicated to the point of disgracing himself or herself in public.
The day I stumbled on today’s Bible reading, I knew that they were wrong: It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink: Proverbs 31:4
If you’re truly born again, the Bible calls you a king and a priest unto God (Revelation 1:5-6).
The Scripture above, thus, establishes that strong drinks are not for you.
I advise you to avoid alcohol and drink water more because it is the purest form of liquid that your body will appreciate in the long run.
