Topic Daily Appetite [Teens Open Heavens 18, July 2018]
Memorise: Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is. 1 John 3:2
Read: 1 John 3:1-3 (KJV)
Bible In One Year: Psalm 25-27, Acts 20:17-38
MESSAGE:
The most important thing about seeing God is that it makes us like Him. The more of God you envision, the more like Him you become. Why do you think Hebrews 12:2 asks you to look unto Him? What you see affects what you are and shapes you into a mould for the future.
If your eyes are always glued to senseless television shows and movies, you are being packaged for the image of this world. But if you regularly watch spiritual movies, constantly read the Holy Bible and spiritual books, each day you will look more like God. Do away with the worldly appetite and embrace spiritual discipline.
Prayer Point: Father, help me to kill every ungodly desire in my heart.

Hymn 16
1. Christian, seek not yet repose
Hear thy gracious Savior say;
Thou art in the midst of foes:
Watch and pray.
2. Principalities and power
Mustering their unseen array
Wait for the unguarded hours:
Watch and pray
3. Gird the heavenly armor on,
Wear it ever night and day;
Ambushed lies the evil one:
Watch and pray.
4. Hear the victors who o’ercame,
Still they mark each warriors’s way;
All with one sweet voice exclaim,
Watch and pray.
5. Hear, above all, hear thy Lord,
Him thou loves to obey;
Hide within thy heart His word:
Watch and pray.
6. Watch, as if on that alone
Hung the issue of the day;
Pray, that help may be sent down:
Watch and pray.
