TOPIC: The Good Shepherd [Open Heaven for Teens 7 September 2022]

MEMORISE: I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. John 10:11

READ: John 10:11-14

  1. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
  2. But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
  3. The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
  4. I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Corinthians 15:33-58, Proverbs 11-12

MESSAGE:

One of the functions of a shepherd is to direct the sheep to where there is good pasture and a stream, so that they can be well nourished. Jesus does this and many other functions as the Good Shepherd.

Many teens miss out by choosing the wrong career and making bad decisions in critical areas of life. My child, anyone who makes Jesus his/her Shepherd cannot make wrong decisions because He would lead such a fellow in the right path.

It is however unfortunate that some Christians claim Jesus as their Shepherd, yet make wrong decisions. Such people are goats because Jesus said in John 10:27 that:
“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.”

If you have Jesus as your Shepherd, He will lead you in all things, provided you hear His voice and follow.

REFLECTION:

Are you a sheep?

HYMN: What A Friend We Have In Jesus

  1. What a friend we have in Jesus,
    All our sins and griefs to bear;
    What a privilege to carry
    Ev’rything to God in prayer
    Oh! what peace we often forfeit,
    Oh! what needless pain we bear
    All because we do not carry
    Everything to God in prayer.
  2. Have we trials and temptations?
    Is there trouble anywhere?
    We should never be discouraged,
    Take it to the Lord in prayer
    Can we find a Friend so faithful
    Who will all our sorrow share?
    Jesus knows our every weakness,
    Take it to the Lord in prayer.
  3. Are we weak and heavy laden,
    Cumbered with a load of care?
    Precious Saviour still our refuge,
    Take it to the Lord in prayer
    Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
    Take it to the Lord in prayer
    In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,
    Thou wilt find a solace there.
