Open Heavens 2022
Date: 2022-06-01
Topic: LOVE GIVES

Memory Verse: 1 John 3:16 – Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. 1 John 3:16
Bible Reading: Romans 8:31-37

Message: In Corinthians 13:13, faith, hope, and love were described as ‘abiding’. The verse however, went further to say that love is the greatest amongst them. God loved us first before we could love Him in return (1 John 4:19). When a person has a good understanding of God’s love for him or her, it is as if a veil is removed from the fellow’s eyes; he or she would suddenly begin to love God in return and then become free from all the shackles of this sinful world. God loves us so much! He considers nothing too big to give to us. Romans 8:32 says:

He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

If God could give us the greatest gift ever – His Son (John 3:16), nothing is too big for Him to give to you, Nothing! God gives to us because He is committed to loving us. He expects us to love our neighbours and give to them too. 1 John 4:21 says:

And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

How much do you love those around you? How much do you love your colleagues in the office? One day, a young man came for one of our Holy Ghost Services in Nigeria and saw his aunt in the middle of the crowd. He screamed, “Aunty, so you come here too?” She said, “I just started coming” and he said, “Oh, I have been coming for many years now”. She became angry with him because he had found the light a long time ago but didn’t introduce her to Christ. She was furious that he didn’t warn her that she was on the way to hell.

Are you going to be heartless too and watch your family members go to hell? You have found the light, why not tell them about Jesus? Why not invite them to Church with you? Why not make it a duty to give them this devotional every year, hoping that even if they refuse to surrender their lives to Christ, one day God will lead them to read it and see something that will touch them there. If you truly love your neighbour, you will lead them to that gift that the Lord has given to you – salvation.

Points: The greatest gift you can give to show someone that you love them is the gospel; don’t hold it back.

Bible in one year: Job 36, Job 37, Job 38, Job 39

Hymn: Wonderful Story Of Love

  Chorus: Wonderful! Wonderful! 

Wonderful!
Wonderful story of love!.

  1. Wonderful story of love; 

Tell it to me again;
Wonderful story of love;
Wake the immortal strain!
Angels with rapture announce it,
Shepherds with wonder receive it;
Sinner, 0 won’t you believe It.
Wonderful story of love.

  2. Wonderful story of love,

Though you are far away;
Wonderful story of love;
Still He doth call today;
Calling from Calvary’s mountain,
Down from the crystal bright fountain,
E’en from the dawn of creation,
Wonderful story of love.

  3. Wonderful story of love:

Jesus provides a rest;
Wonderful story of love;
For all the pure and blest,
Rest in those mansions above us,
With those who’ve gone on before us
Singing the rapturous chorus,
Wonderful story of love.
