OPEN HEAVENS FOR TEENS 8 JUNE 2025 BIBLE READING : Numbers 13:32-33
32 And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature.
33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.
Today’s Confession: I confess today, I am fearless and full of faith, giants are falling before me, and my joy is unstoppable in Jesus’ name. Somebody shout Hallelujah!
OPEN HEAVENS FOR TEENS 8 JUNE 2025 MESSAGE:
God had promised to take the Israelites to the Promised Land.
He delivered them from the hands of their slave masters in Egypt, parted the Red Sea for them to walk on dry land, and caused Pharaoh and his men, who were in hot pursuit after them, to perish in the sea.
He also provided manna from heaven for them, and when they wanted meat, He provided them with quails.
He fought and won many battles for them, but when they were faced with giants, they became discouraged – except Joshua and Caleb.
My dear child, the troubles of life can make you become discouraged, thereby leading to a fear of failure and loss of hope.
Discouragement often comes when a fellow is about to achieve an important feat in life.
Have you been asking things from God, and it seems the answers are far-fetched? Don’t stop asking until your joy is full.
Are you about to write an examination in which you believe that you will not score very high because you are not good at the subject or course? That mindset is not of God.
Study hard for the examination and ask the Holy Spirit for help today.

OPEN HEAVENS FOR TEENS 8 JUNE 2025 HYMN 30:
WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD
1 When we walk with the Lord
in the light of his word,
what a glory he sheds on our way!
While we do his good will,
he abides with us still,
and with all who will trust and obey.
Refrain:
Trust and obey, for there’s no other way
to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
2 Not a burden we bear,
not a sorrow we share,
but our toil he doth richly repay;
not a grief or a loss,
not a frown or a cross,
but is blest if we trust and obey.
3 But we never can prove
the delights of his love
until all on the altar we lay;
for the favor he shows,
for the joy he bestows,
are for them who will trust and obey.
4 Then in fellowship sweet
we will sit at his feet,
or we’ll walk by his side in the way;
what he says we will do,
where he sends we will go;
never fear, only trust and obey.
