TOPIC: Preach The Gospel Boldly (Open Heaven for Teens 21 August 2024)
MEMORISE: Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 10:32
READ: Acts 20:22-24
- And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
- Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.
- But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
MESSAGE:
If you read through the book of Acts, you will find out that the apostles were persecuted by the authorities for preaching in the name of Jesus. Rather than listen to the government, they preached Christ with even more boldness such that the whole of Jerusalem and its environs heard about Jesus (Acts 5:28). In the world today, there are spirits that are working tirelessly against the preaching of the Gospel. However, they are not a limitation, because we have already overcome them.
As a child of God, you should not be afraid to preach the gospel. Do not preach the word like you are not sure of what you are saying; study the Bible and be bold. Beloved, take note of Paul’s love and passion for Christ and the gospel as we read in today’s Bible reading. This glorious gospel that has been committed to you is worth everything; therefore, preach it boldly everywhere you go. Jesus is coming soon, and He is coming with rewards for those who preach the gospel.
PRAYER POINT
Father, please help me to preach and proclaim the gospel of truth boldly.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Job 1:1-3:26, 1 Corinthians 14:1-17
HYMN 31, WONDERFUL STORY OF LOVE
- Wonderful story of love!
Tell it to me again;
Wonderful story of love!
Wake the immortal strain.
Angels with rapture announce it,
Shepherds with wonder receive it;
Sinner, O won’t you believe it?
Wonderful story of love!
Refrain:
Wonderful! Wonderful!
Wonderful story,
Wonderful story of love!
- Wonderful story of love!
Though you are far away;
Wonderful story of love!
Still he doth call today.
Calling from Calvary’s mountain,
Down from the crystal bright fountain,
E’en from the dawn of creation;
Wonderful story of love! - Wonderful story of love!
Jesus provides a rest;
Wonderful story of love!
For all the pure and blest;
Rest in those mansions above us,
With those who’ve gone on before us,
Singing the rapturous chorus;
Wonderful story of love!
