TOPIC: Behind The Scene [Open Heaven for Teens 8 December 2021]

MEMORISE: And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. Job 1:7

READ: Ephesians 6:12-13

  1. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
  2. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 3 John 1:1-15 , Daniel 11-12

MESSAGE:

Whether you believe it or not, the world is governed by two powers; God and the devil. While the devil is using his power to cause trouble on earth, God is using His mighty power to deliver, save, protect and defend His children. So, if you’re not yet one of His children, you are not safe because Satan can play games with your life.

You also need to know that the spiritual controls the physical; the sooner you understand this, the better. Life is a constant battle, but there is the assurance that every child of God is victorious because Christ has overcome the world (1 John 4:4 ). Hence, I don’t get agitated whenever I discover that someone is trying to do any evil against me, I only look beyond the situation and pray against the unseen forces pulling strings behind the scene (Satan). My child, the only enemy you have is the devil; he is the one controlling his agents and people to do evil. He will not control and overcome you if you remain God’s child.

ACTION POINT
Decree and declare your victory over the forces of darkness today.

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
  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, I live.
  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’ll stand.
