TOPIC: Just A Little Sin [Open Heaven for Teens 15 March 2024]

MEMORISE: The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure. 1 Corinthians 10:13 (NLT)

READ: James 2:10-13

10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

13 For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

MESSAGE

The temptation to commit just one little sin is a trap the devil uses to get many Christians. He tells them that they have been faithful all through, and it wouldn’t hurt if they commit this little sin: after all, others are doing far worse.

Many people don’t know that a seemingly little sin can send one to hell because it would only lead to another, and the web would continue till you are fully entangled in the devil’s trap. For instance, David thought not going to war while his soldiers were at war was not a big deal. Then, he climbed the rooftop out of idleness and watched a beautiful woman bathe, which was another little sin. He went ahead and sent for her to commit adultery, and you know the rest of the story.

My child, before God, there is no little sin. That lie you told just to escape being punished is a sin, and it is as grievous as fornication. Instead of going deep into sin, ask God for forgiveness and repent. Jesus said if your entire body is holy except your eyes, then you should pluck it out because that little eye can bring trouble to the whole body (Matthew 5:29).

KEY POINT:

Father, have mercy on me; give me grace to overcome every temptation in Jesus’ name.

HYMN 15 – Conquerors And Overcomes Now Are We

1 Conquerors and overcomes now are we,
Thro’ the precious blood of Christ we’ve victory
If the Lord be for us, we can never fail,
Nothing ‘gainst His mighty pow’r can e’er prevail.

CHORUS
Conquerors are we, through the blood of Jesus,
God will give us victory, through the blood of Jesus
Thro’ the Lamb for sinners slain,
Yet who lives and reigns again,
More than conquerors are we,
More than conquerors are we.

2.⁠ ⁠In the name of Israel’s God we’ll onward press,
Overcoming sin and all unrighteousness;
Not to us, but unto Him the praise shall be,
For Salvation and for blood bought victory.

3 Unto him that overcometh shall be given,
Here to eat of hidden manna sent from heav’n,
Over yonder he the victors palm shall bear,
And a robe of white, and golden crown shall wear.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Numbers 22:21-23:30 Luke 1:57-80
