TOPIC: Finding Love (Open Heaven for Teens 12 April 2024)

MEMORISE: There is no fear in love: but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 1 John 4:18

READ: Psalms 139:13-16

13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.

14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

MESSAGE

A teenager who is moving from childhood to adulthood, you may begin to ask questions based on self-awareness and increasing knowledge. For example, by being conscious of your growing body, you may begin to ask questions such as, “Who Am I? Why am I here on earth? Why am I short? Am I beautiful, and will anyone love me?” When young people don’t find the right answers, they might end up falling into the wrong relationships while searching for love and acceptance.

Let me emphasise that the first thing to know in your journey is that God made you beautiful or handsome, unique from everyone else, and with a purpose to fulfil. Also, He has given you an assurance of His love and His presence (Hebrews 13:5).

Many teenagers fall into the wrong relationships because they leave God out of their lives and try to use their ‘common sense’. My dear child, you need to find and accept God’s standards instead of the world’s. By doing this, you will be guided into making the right choices in your friendships and relationships.

KEY POINT

You must be conscious of God’s standards when it comes to choosing friendships and relationships.

HYMN 20 – Christian, Seek Not Yet Repose

1 Christian, seek not yet repose;
Hear thy guardian angel say,
“Thou art in the midst of foes:
Watch and pray!”

2 Principalities and powers ,
Mustering their unseen array,
Wait for thy unguarded hours:
“Watch and pray.”

3 Gird thy heavenly armour on;
Wear it every night and day
Ambush’d lies the evil one:
“Watch and pray.”

4 Hear the victors who o’ercame;
Still they mark each warrior’s way;
All with one sweet voice exclaim,
“Watch and pray!”

5 Watch, as if on that alone
Hung the issue of the day;
Pray, that help may be sent down:
Watch and pray.

6 Hear, above all, hear thy Lord,
Him thou lovest to obey;
Hide within thy heart His word
“Watch and pray!”

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Joshua 5:1-7:15 Luke 15:1-32
