OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 15 AUGUST 2022 MESSAGE

Shortly before Jesus began His earthly ministry, He went to river Jordan to be baptized by John the Baptist and the Heavens opened immediately after. A vital lesson from this is that if you’re truly born again and undertake baptism by immersion, the Heavens will open over you.

One of the reasons for water baptism is to identify with the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord Jesus. It’s also an open demonstration of the change that is happening from your inside, out.

This change must be evident to everyone who comes in contact with you. In addition, water baptism seals your making it to Heaven (Mark 16:16). Sadly, many Churches are doing baptism in wrong ways, such as the sprinkling of water, baptizing an infant or someone living in sin.

Jesus already laid a perfect example of how baptism should be done and if anyone adheres to this, there will be a spiritual affirmation of the fellow’s sonship. If you were wrongly baptized, ensure that you make the necessary correction.

 15 AUGUST 2022 HYMN

IN CHRIST ALONE

1. In Christ alone my hope is found

He is my light, my strength, my song

This Cornerstone, this solid ground

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace

When fears are stilled, when strivings cease

My Comforter, my All in All

Here in the love of Christ I stand.

2. In Christ alone, who took on flesh

Fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness

Scorned by the ones He came to save

‘Til on that cross as Jesus died

The wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid

Here in the death of Christ I live.

Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

3. There in the ground His body lay

Light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious Day

Up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory

Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine

Bought with the precious blood of Christ

4. No guilt in life, no fear in death

This is the power of Christ in me

From life’s first cry to final breath

Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man

Can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home

Here, in the power of Christ, I stand.
