Open Heaven For Teens 23 January 2024: Prayer Works (II)
TOPIC: Prayer Works (II) [Open Heaven for Teens 23 January 2024]
MEMORISE: And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint: Luke 18:1
READ: Luke 18:1-8
1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;
2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:
3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;
5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.
6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
MESSAGE
Yesterday, I established that nothing is impossible for someone who prays. Today, I will add that anything is achievable for a fellow who prays persistently.
Many people pray every day, but they fail to persist with specific prayer points, even though they haven’t gotten responses concerning them. I was shocked the day my wife told me that when we first began full-time ministry, she would pray for me for at least 6 hours every day, asking God to have mercy on me so that I would not fail Him. This is why I don’t joke with her at all. I respect and value her because God has been answering her prayers. She doesn’t stay in one position to do this; she prays in the kitchen, toilet, bedroom, garden, in the car while driving, et cetera. The only time she is not praying is when she is discussing with me or having a nice time with the children. However, I am sure that even at those times, her spirit is still praying.
My dear child, continue to pray over that matter or that person until you see a change. The answer to your prayers will come if you don’t give up.
KEY POINT
If God could change a boy like Adeboye, He can change anybody. Keep praying!
HYMN 14 – Standing On The Promises Of God
1. Standing on the promises of Christ our King,
Thro’ eternal ages let His praises ring:
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,
Standing on the promises of God.
CHORUS
Standing, Standing,
Standing on the promises of
God my Saviour
Standing, Standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.
2 Standing on the promises that can-not fail,
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail
By the living word of Go I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.
3. Standing on the promises I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
Standing on the promises of God.
4. Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
Standing on the promises of God.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 46:1-47:31; Matthew 15:1-28
