Topic: From Milk To Bones (Open Heaven 28 November 2020)

Memorise: For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. – Hebrews 5:12

Read: Hebrews 5:12-14 (KJV)

12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Bible In One Year: 1 Corinthians 1-4

Open Heaven 28 November 2020 Saturday MESSAGE:

The Christians life is in stages. A baby Christian first feeds on milk – the soft word of God. This is when he/she has just become born again and is being introduced to the ways of God. After this new believer has been taking milk for a while, it is expected that he/she begins to crush bones. That is when a believer can take in deeper things of the word of God without being confused. At this stage of crushing bones, he/she can also begin to feed some new converts with milk.

There is time to be a regular member of your church and there is a time to join the workforce. There is also a time at which you must also start raising disciples for God. In your Christian walk, you should never remain on the same level, you must keep growing.

Since you got born again, how many souls have you won for Christ? If you have been born again for some years now and you have only been getting fed, not feeding others and helping them grow spiritually, then you need a revival. Jesus’ mandate for all Christians is clearly stated in Matthew 28:19:

“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:”

God’s desire is that every disciple grows to the level of raising other disciples for Him. Paul told Timothy:

“And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.” – 2 Timothy 2:2

If you have been a Christian for long and you have not started raising disciples for God, what are you waiting for? Jesus has given us the mandate and He expects us to be faithful to it. Don’t disappoint Him.

Open Heaven 28 November 2020 Saturday Reflection:

Are you growing in the things of the Kingdom? How many souls have you won for Christ since you became born again?

Open Heaven 28 November 2020 Saturday Hymn 5: Deeper, Deeper In The Love Of Jesus

1. Deeper, deeper in the love of Jesus
   Daily let me go;
   Higher, higher in the school of wisdom,
   More of grace to know.

Refrain:
Oh, deeper yet, I pray,
And higher every day,
And wiser, blessed Lord,
In Thy precious, holy Word.

2. Deeper, deeper, blessed Holy Spirit,
   Take me deeper still,
   Till my life is wholly lost in Jesus,
   And His perfect will.
3. Deeper, deeper! though it cost hard trials,
   Deeper let me go!
   Rooted in the holy love of Jesus,
   Let me fruitful grow.
4. Deeper, higher, every day in Jesus,
   Till all conflict past,
   Finds me conqu’ror, and in His own image
   Perfected at last.
5. Deeper, deeper in the faith of Jesus,
   Holy faith and true;
   In His pow’r and soul exulting wisdom
   Let me peace pursue.
