TOPIC: Addictions That Consume (Open Heaven for Teens 5 June 2024)

MEMORISE: A person without self- control is like a city with broken-down walls. Proverbs 25:28 (NLT)

READ: Proverbs 16:32

32 He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.

MESSAGE

The word ‘addiction’ refers to a state of being overly dependent (physically or mentally) on a particular thing. When a fellow cannot control his or her engagement with something that gives him or her pleasure, then that fellow is addicted to that thing. Addictions are dangerous because they have the ability to consume a fellow and ruin his or her life.

A teenager who cannot control his or her engagement with social media is addicted to it already. Some teenagers spend hours chatting, checking their notifications, and meeting people on social media, whereas they spend less time studying their Bibles or reading good books to develop themselves. This is one of the reasons I do not subscribe to the use of Bible apps on mobile phones during Bible study (however, you can use it at other times). This is because various phone notifications can be a distraction for young people who interact with their phones almost throughout the day.

Whatever you cannot control in your life will definitely control you. The first thing you do when you wake up in the morning will determine the course of your day.

PRAYER POINT

Father, please deliver me from any addiction in my life, in Jesus’ name.

HYMN 9 – Deeper, Deeper In The Love Of Jesus

1.⁠ ⁠Deeper, deeper in the love of Jesus
Daily let me go;
Higher, higher in the school of wisdom,
More of grace to know.

CHORUS
O deeper yet I pray,
And higher ev’ry day,
And wiser, blessed, Lord,
In Thy precious, holy word.

2.⁠ ⁠Deeper, deeper! blessed Holy Spirit,
Take me deeper still,
Till my life is wholly lost in Jesus
And His perfect will.

3.⁠ ⁠Deeper, deeper! tho’ it cost hard trials,
Deeper let me go!
Rooted in the holy love of Jesus,
Let me fruitful grow.

4.⁠ ⁠Deeper, higher ev’ry day in Jesus,
Till all conflict past,
Finds me conqueror, and in His own image
Perfected at last.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 2 Samuel 23:24-24:25 Acts 3:1-26
