TOPIC: Not Today Satan! [Open Heaven for Teens 7 August 2023]
MEMORISE: Ye are of God, little children, and have overcame them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4
READ: 1 Peter 5:6-11
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 12-14
MESSAGE
One benefit of Jesus’ death and resurrection is victory over sin. This is something every believer has access to, however, it does not eliminate trials and temptations.

Thus, the slogan ‘Not today satan’ is not just a statement: it is an attitude that makes you declare victory over sin and satan. It is important to bear this slogan in mind because there will be times when you would feel dejected, inadequate, angry, or want to defend yourself against opposition in an unthinkable manner. You have to tell the devil “not today” because you have won by the grace of God.
Whenever the flesh wants to dominate you, remember and speak the word of God, then flee. By so doing. you’re resisting the devil and emphasizing that he does not have a hold on your life.
ACTION POINT:
In your moments of despair or temptation, declare: ‘not today, satan’.
HYMN 15 – Onward, Christian Soldiers
- Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
Looking unto Jesus,
Who is gone before;
Christ, the Royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See His banners go.
CHORUS
Onward, Christian soldiers!
Marching as to war,
Looking unto Jesus,
Who is gone before.
- At the name of Jesus
Satan’s host doth Ilee;
On then, Christian soldiers
On to victory!
Hell’s foundations quiver
At the shout of praise:
Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise. - Like a mighty army
Moves the Church of God:
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod.
We are not divided,
All one body we
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity. - Crowns and thrones may perish
Kingdoms rise and wane;
But the Church of Jesus
Constant will remain:
Gates of hell can never
‘Gainst that church prevail;
We have Christ’s own promise-
And that cannot fail. - Onward then, ye people,
Join our happy throng;
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song:
“Glory, praise and honour,
Unto Christ the King”,
This, through countless ages,
Men and angels sing.
