TOPIC: Simply Obey (Open Heaven for Teens 6 January 2025)

MEMORISE: Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. Romans 13:5

READ: Romans 13:1-5

  1. Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
  2. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
  3. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
  4. For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
  5. Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

MESSAGE:

Being a Christian does not put you above the law. There are many benefits of obeying the law, and God commands us in today’s Bible reading to be subject to the authority of the land. People who obey the laws of the land will not partake in the consequences that come with breaking the law. The consequences of breaking the law include payment of fines, jail terms, and finally, God’s wrath.

In Mark 12:13-17, when Jesus was asked whether it was lawful to pay tax, He said, “Give unto Caesar what is Caesar’s.” In other words, Jesus was telling them to obey the laws of the land.

As a child of God, you are not expected to follow worldly standards. The fact that people disobey laws and orders does not mean you should do the same. Some people litter their surroundings with dirt and later blame the government for overflowing drainages. Some people claim to be Christians, yet they disobey traffic rules. Beloved, if you’re not obeying the rules laid down by your parents, school authority, or the government of your country within the confines of God’s word, you are definitely disobedient to God because God put these people in the position of authority.

KEY POINT
Honour God with your simple acts of obedience.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR
Genesis 13:5-15:21, Matthew 5:27-48

HYMN 30: When We Walk With The Lord

  1. When we walk with the Lord
    in the light of his word,
    what a glory he sheds on our way!
    While we do his good will,
    he abides with us still,
    and with all who will trust and obey.

Refrain:
Trust and obey, for there’s no other way
to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

  1. But we never can prove
    the delights of his love
    until all on the altar we lay;
    for the favor he shows,
    for the joy he bestows,
    are for them who will trust and obey. [Refrain]
  2. Then in fellowship sweet
    we will sit at his feet,
    or we’ll walk by his side in the way;
    what he says we will do,
    where he sends we will go;
    never fear, only trust and obey. [Refrain]
