TOPIC: Dreams [Open Heaven for Teens 8 December 2023]
MEMORISE: And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh: and our sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. Joel 2:28
BIBLE TEXT: Genesis 41:1-7
1 And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river.
2 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven well favoured kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow.
3 And, behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, ill favoured and leanfleshed; and stood by the other kine upon the brink of the river.
4 And the ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.
5 And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.
6 And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.
7 And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.
MESSAGE:
There are different theories that prove that what you think of before going to bed forms your dreams. Some are of the opinion that our activities during the day oftentimes interfere with our dreams. Regardless of these, God still speaks to His children through dreams.
There are different purposes for which God gives dreams, such as to inform His children of what is about to happen. God revealed Joseph’s future to him in dreams, and his brothers hated him so much that they sold him into slavery at a very young age. Despite all that they did, Joseph’s dreams still became a reality.
Another reason God reveals things to His children through dreams is for them to intervene/intercede and change the course of events. For instance, in today’s Bible passage, the king needed to take action to avoid the impending famine, and he did through the help of Joseph. Never joke with your dreams. If you don’t understand them, ask God for interpretation or tell it to a mature and spiritual person who can interpret them for you so you can pray or act accordingly.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, please always reveal hidden things to me and lead me to do the right things with the information I receive from You.
HYMN 16 – Breathe On Me
- Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Fill me with life anew,
That I may love the way you love,
And do what you would do. - Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Until my heart is pure,
Until my will is one with yours,
To do and to endure. - Breathe on me, Breath of God,
So shall I never die,
But live with you the perfect life
For all eternity.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Ephesians 1-3
