TOPIC: Jesus Is Your Worth [Open Heaven for Teens 11 January 2024]

MEMORISE: My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. Proverbs 1:10

READ: Matthew 26:14-16

14 Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

15 and said, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver Him to you?” And they counted out to him thirty pieces of silver.

16 So from that time he sought opportunity to betray Him. Jesus Celebrates Passover with His Disciples

MESSAGE

My dear child, knowing your worth will help boost your self-esteem and prevent you from falling cheaply for anything. If you know your worth, it would be impossible for anyone to entice you with money and flashy things.

It was easy for Judas to betray Jesus for 30 pieces of silver because he did not know the worth of being a disciple of Jesus. If he had known the value of his friendship and closeness with Jesus, he wouldn’t have fallen cheaply to the temptation to betray Him. Unfortunately, by the time he realized his mistake, it was too late to retrace his steps (Matthew 27:3-5).

I implore you not to go into an unholy relationship or entanglement’ because of the ‘chicken change’ a fellow has to offer. The blood of Jesus is your worth and it is worth far more than rubies, gold, silver, and all the precious stones in the world.

Beloved, Jesus did not lose His worth before men; hence, you shouldn’t lose yours either. Never shortchange your destiny for temporary enjoyment. Don’t miss out on all the beautiful things that Jesus has to offer.

KEY POINT

You are invaluable; don’t put a price tag on yourself.

HYMN 3 – I Am Thine O Lord

1 I am Thine O Lord I have heard Thy voice
And it told Thy love to me
But I long to rise in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee

Chorus
Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord
To the cross where Thou hast died
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord
To Thy precious, bleeding side

2 Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord
By the pow’r of grace divine
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope
And my will be lost in Thine

3 Oh, the pure delight of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God
I commune as friend with friend

4 There are depths of love that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 24:52-26:16; Matthew 8:18-34
