TOPIC: A Gullible Prey [Open Heaven for Teens 15 July 2023]

MEMORISE: They received the word with all readiness of mind, a searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Acts 17:11

READ: Acts 17:10-12

10 And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.

11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

12 Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 1-3

MESSAGE

The concluding part of today’s Bible text presents to us the perfect attitude of a child of God to every word he/she hears, The Berean Christians checked the scriptures to confirm what Paul and other preachers said about the gospel of Christ before believing it.

Clearly, we are in the last days where diverse preachers have risen to preach false messages, and those who are not spiritually inclined are falling prey to their gimmicks. It’s so rampant that the Bible says that if those whose salvation is founded on the rock of ages don’t exercise caution, they may fall for the deception too. Unfortunately, on the last day, ignorance will not be an excuse.

My dear, God’s word is very clear about everything: take your time to read and know it for yourself, then allow the Holy Spirit to interpret it to you. Don’t just listen and follow every preacher, be like the Berean Christians.

REFLECTION

Those who spend personal time with God’s word are not easily swayed by winds of doctrines.

HYMN 18 – 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.

CHORUS
Trust and obey!
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

  1. Not a shadow can rise,
    Not a cloud in the skies,
    But His smile quickly drives it away;
    Not a doubt nor a fear,
    Not a sigh nor a tear,
    Can abide while we trust and obey.
  2. Not a burden we bear,
    Not a sorrow we share
    But our toil He doth richly repay;
    Not a grief nor a loss,
    Not a frown nor 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 favour He shows
    And 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.
