MEMORISE: My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. Psalm 121:2

READ: Psalms 121:1-8

1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

2 My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.

3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.

6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Bible In One Year: 1 Samuel 17-18; Luke 15:1-10

MESSAGE:

There are lots of threats out there for you teenagers. Sometimes, its from your classmates, teachers or parents. When any of these threats can be handled by someone else, you report to that fellow. But sometimes, there is really no one that can handle the situation. At such times, you have only one person to turn to and that person is God. Report to Him.

Are things so difficult for your parents that they may be contemplating withdrawing you from school due to lack of funds to pays your fees? Report to God. Is your Landlord threatening to send your family packing for one reason or the other? Report to God. Are your parents constantly fighting and at the verge of divorce if something is not done fast? Report to God. There is nothing God cannot do. He said you should ask Him for whatever you want and He will do it.

Action Point:

Go ahead and report that situation bothering you to God now. Don’t stop praying. Ensure you pray about it until it is settled.

Hymn 14:

1.Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Chorus:
Saviour, Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling;
Do not pass me by.

2.Let me, at Thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief.

3.Trusting only in Thy merit
Would I seek Thy face
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.

4.Thou, the spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me.
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in heaven but Thee
