TOPIC: Your Past In Your Favour [Open Heaven for Teens 19 August 2022]

MEMORISE: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

READ: Galatians 1:23-24 (KJV)

  1. But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.
  2. And they glorified God in me.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Corinthians 1:1-31, Psalms 112-115

MESSAGE:

The past is a place that can prevent you from having new experiences of good things. This is why the Bible says in Isaiah 43:18

“Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.”

You may have made mistakes in the past but God can turn them into favour.
In today’s Bible reading, when the Church heard that their greatest persecutor, Saul had been converted to Paul and had begun propagating the gospel, they were surprised and filled with joy. How wonderful it would be if terrorists would encounter Jesus, surrender their weapons and ammunition openly, then begin to hold crusades in different nations of the world. This was exactly the situation in Paul’s time. It was his reputation that made people listen to him.

They must have wondered how God could save a wicked man as he, causing many to surrender their lives to Christ too. You don’t have to stay in the pool of past mistakes or failures, come to Jesus today and surrender all to Him. He will turn your shame to glory and your mess into a message.

PRAYER POINT:

Father, please turn every unpleasantness in my life into favour

HYMN: O God Our Help In Ages Past

  1. O God, our help in ages past,
    our hope for years to come,
    our shelter from the stormy blast,
    and our eternal home;
  2. Under the shadow of Thy throne
    Thy saints have dwelt secure.
    Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
    and our defence is sure.
  3. Before the hills in order stood,
    or earth received her frame,
    from everlasting Thou art God,
    to endless years the same.
  4. A thousand ages in Thy sight
    are like an evening gone,
    short as the watch that ends the
    night
    before the rising sun.
  5. Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
    bears all its sons away.
    They fly forgotten, as a dream
    dies at the opening day.
  6. O God, our help in ages past,
    our hope for years to come,
    be Thou our guard while troubles last,
    and our eternal home.
