TOPIC: The Integrity Of Boaz (Open Heaven for Teens, 23 February 2025)

MEMORISE: The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him. Proverbs 20:7

BIBLE READING: Proverbs 28:6-10

6 Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

7 Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father.

8 He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.

9 He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.

10 Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession.

MESSAGE:

Integrity is being true to your word. When you are a person of integrity, what you say will be consistent with what you do. Anyone who calls himself or herself a Christian must be a person of integrity. In Matthew 5:37, Jesus Christ said, “But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.”

As someone with integrity, it is important to fulfil promises you make to people. If, for any reason, you cannot fulfil your promise, you must discuss it with the fellow involved and explain the circumstances. You shouldn’t go back on a promise without any explanation – that is not what your Father in heaven would do.

Philippians 2:10-11 says that the name of Jesus is so powerful. At the mention of His name, every knee in heaven, on earth, and underneath the earth should bow, and every tongue should confess that Jesus is Lord. As powerful as the name of Jesus is, the Bible says that He magnifies His Word above it (Psalm 138:2). This is why we completely trust in the word of God. We know that He can and will do what He says He will do.

QUIZ: In which of Paul’s epistles did he encourage Christians to be followers (imitators) of God as dear children?

KEY POINT:

If you say that you are Christ-like, then your word must be your bond.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Leviticus 14:1-57, Mark 6:30-56

HYMN 53: Praise Him, Praise Him Jesus Our Blessed Redeemer

1 Praise Him! praise Him! Jesus, our blessed Redeemer!
Sing, O earth, His wonderful love proclaim!
Hail Him, hail Him! Highest angels in glory!
Strength and honor give to His holy name!
Like a shepherd, Jesus will guard his children.
In His arms He carries them all day long.
O ye saints that dwell on the mountain of zion
Praise Him! praise Him!
Ever in joyful song!

2 Praise Him! praise Him! Jesus, our blessed Redeemer,
For our sins He suffered and bled and died;
He, our Rock, our Hope of eternal salvation,
Hail Him! hail Him! Jesus, the Crucified;
Loving Savior, meekly enduring sorrow,
Crowned with thorns that cruelly pierced His brow;
Once for us rejected, despised, and forsaken,
Prince of Glory, ever triumphant now.

3 Praise Him! praise Him!
Jesus, our blessed Redeemer,
Heav’nly portals, loud with hosannas ring!
Jesus, Savior, reigneth for ever and ever;
Crown Him! crown Him! Prophet and Priest and King!
Death is vanquished! Tell it with joy, ye faithful,
Where is now thy victory, boasting grave?
Jesus lives! No longer thy portals are cheerless;
Jesus lives, the mighty and strong to save.
