TOPIC: Pull Down Every Idol [Open Heaven for Teens 18 February 2023]

MEMORISE: Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Repent, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations. Ezekiel 14:6

READ: Ezekiel 14:2-3,6

2 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

3 Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumbling block of their iniquity before their face: should I be enquired of at all by them?

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Numbers 27-29

MESSAGE:

An idol is anything that a fellow worships. It takes the place of God in the life of its worshipper. Examples are phones, fashion, accessories, worldly music, lust, humans, et cetera. Don’t be quick to dismiss today’s topic because many Christians have idols without knowing. If there’s something you cannot do without for a day or more, it is an idol.

I remember when one of my children fell ill many years ago. I took him to God in prayers and said, “Father, this is my child, please heal him.” I realized he didn’t get better. Then I prayed to Him again, and this time, He said, “Since he is your child, heal him.” So, I quickly said, “God, he is Your child, please heal him.” Since then, when I pray for the children, I refer to them as His children in my care. I want you to realize early that nothing belongs to you, so nothing or no one should take the place of God in your life because our God is a jealous God.

If you truly see Him as the only Lord of your life, then do away with idols.

ACTION POINT:

Determine to do away with every idol in your heart.

HYMN 9 – O Jesus, I Have Promised

  1. O Jesus, I have promised
    To serve Thee to the end;
    Be Thou for ever near me,
    My Master and my Friend:
    I shall not fear the battle
    If Thou art by my side,
    Nor wander from the pathway
    If Thou wilt be my Guide.
  2. O let me feel Thee near me;
    The world is ever near;
    I see the sights that dazzle,
    The tempting sounds I hear;
    My foes are ever near me,
    Around me and within;
    But, Jesus, draw Thou nearer,
    And shield my soul from sin.
  3. O let me hear Thee speaking
    In accents clear and still,
    Above the storms of passion,
    The murmurs of self-will;
    O speak to reassure me,
    To hasten or control;
    O speak and make me listen,
    Thou Guardian of my soul.
  4. O Jesus, Thou hast promised
    To all who follow Thee,
    That where Thou art in Glory
    There shall Thy servant be;
    And, Jesus, I have promised
    To serve Thee to the end;
    O give me grace to follow
    My Master and my Friend.
