Topic: Respect Your Superiors [Open Heavens for Teens 23 December 2018]
Memorise: “Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.” – Romans 13:7
Read: Romans 13:1-14 (KJV)
Bible In One Year: Habakkuk 1-3, Revelation 14
MESSAGE:
Your superiors are in your life by God’s doing. They exist by the will of God, and so God recognizes their place and authority over you and He expects that you do too. Asides this, any superior that is placed before you has paid his dues passing through the stage you are at the moment. Hence, they are meant to be respected; treated with honour and value. If everyone consciously respects their superiors, the Church, and even the world at large will be a better place, because everyone will know their place live at peace with each other.
Another reason why you should respect you superiors is because sooner or later, you will become someone’s superior too, and it is the way you treat your superiors today that you will be treated when you become a superior tomorrow.

Hymn 4:
I. God give us Christian homes!
Homes Where the Bible is loved and taught,
Homes where the master’s will is sought,
Homes crowned with beauty
Thy love hath wrought;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!
2. God give us Christian homes!
Homes where the father is true and strong,
Homes that are free from the blight of wrong,
Homes that are joyous with love and song;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!
3. God give us Christian homes!
Homes where the mother in queenly quest,
Strives to show others Thy way is best,
Homes where the Lord is an honoured guest;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!
4. God give us Christian homes!
Homes where the Children are led to know,
Christ in His beauty who loves them so,
Homes where the altar fire burn and glow;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!
