OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TEENS 27 JANUARY 2019 – SENSE THE SIGNS

MEMORISE: Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual backsliding? They hold fast deceit, they refuse to return. Jeremiah 8:5

Read: Matthew 5:28-30

28 But I say to you that everyone who so much as looks at a woman with evil desire for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

29 If your right eye serves as a trap to ensnare you or is an occasion for you to stumble and sin, pluck it out and throw it away. It is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be cast into hell (Gehenna).

30 And if your right hand serves as a trap to ensnare you or is an occasion for you to stumble and sin, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better that you lose one of your members than that your entire body should be cast into hell (Gehenna).

MESSAGE:

Nothing in this world ever happens suddenly, people only don’t sense the signs before it happens. When a Christian backslides, it is because he did not take heed when the signs were coming.

If you find that you are beginning to feel comfortable when people say dirty things around you, it is a sign that your spiritual antenna is weak, you must revive it through more Bible Study.

If you are a girl and you discover that you are feeling comfortable with a guy putting his arms around your waist, it is a sign that fornication is lurking around the corner and you must keep away from that guy while you ask God to take away the lust from your heart. Read – Open Heaven 27 January 2019

Sin usually creeps in when we spend less time with God. Do you still read your Bible like before? Have you cut back on the number of times that you go to church? When you discover that you are doing less of these things, it is a sign that sin is creeping in, so wake up and revive your fire.

KEY POINT:

The spiritual activities you are involved with should increase, not decrease. A decrease means danger.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Exodus 11-12
Matthew 18:21-35

Hymn 16

1. Christian, seek not yet repose
Hear thy gracious Savior say;
Thou art in the midst of foes:
Watch and pray.

2. Principalities and power
Mustering their unseen array
Wait for the unguarded hours:
Watch and pray

3. Gird the heavenly armor on,
Wear it ever night and day;
Ambushed lies the evil one:
Watch and pray.

4. Hear the victors who o’ercame,
Still they mark each warrior’s way;
All with one sweet voice exclaim,
Watch and pray.

5. Hear, above all, hear thy Lord,
Him thou loves to obey;
Hide within thy heart His word:
Watch and pray.

6. Watch, as if on that alone
Hung the issue of the day;
Pray, that help may be sent down:
Watch and pray.
