TEENS OPEN HEAVEN FOR TODAY.
Open Heavens for Teens daily devotional by Pastor Adeboye is here. The RCCG Open Heavens For Teen is published to transform & connect teens to Christ. Read and share with someone.
The Topic of Teenagers Open Heavens for Saturday 14 Th October 2023 Is “Care for Others”
Read: Romans 15:23-29
23 But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come unto you;
24 Whensoever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first I be somewhat filled with your company.
25 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.
26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.
27 It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.
28 When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain.
29 And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.
Memorise: Galatians 6:10
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
Despite the great anointing with which Apostle Paul was ministering to the Jews and Gentiles, he was still particular about the ministry of care. Jesus Christ taught the importance of hospitality when He said: “For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward”. (Mark 9:41)
No matter the spiritual gifts you express, your spirituality is questionable if you don’t care for people genuinely. You must engage in the ministry of care and welfare. This is one of the reasons we always include free feeding and accommodation at our major programmes and conventions. We ensure that the camp is conducive for an average person to have a comfortable stay as they come to fellowship with God. Indeed, I can testify that taking care of the needy has provided opportunities for effective soul-winning in the body of Christ.
ACTION POINT:
Commit a part of your pocket money to meeting the needs of the poor in your neighbourhood or fellowship.
HYMN 21 – I Want To Be Like Jesus
- I want to be like Jesus,
So lowly and so meek;
For no one mark’d an angry word,
That ever heard Him speak, - I want to be like Jesus,
So frequently in prayer;
Alone upon the mountain top,
He met his Father there. - I want to be like Jesus,
I never, never find
That He, though persecuted was
To anyone unkind. - I want to be like Jesus,
Engaged in doing good;
So that of me it may be said
“He hath done what he could.” - I want to be like Jesus,
Who sweetly said to all,
“Let little children come to Me;”
I would obey the call. - But oh I’m not like Jesus,
As anyone may see;
O gentle Saviour, send Thy grace,
And make me like to Thee
