Open Heavens for Teens

Topic: Doctor Jesus [Teens’ Open Heavens Friday 2nd, March 2018]

Memorise: Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: John 11:25

Read: Mark 5:25-34

25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,

26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.

30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?

31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.

33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

Bible In One Year: Numbers 28-29, Mark 9:1-29

MESSAGE:

In the book of John chapter 11, we see that Jesus Christ is able to restore the dead back to life. Lazarus had been dead for four days and as expected, everyone had lost hope, but immediately Jesus got to his tomb, He commanded dead Lazarus to rise from the dead and he did. There is absolutely nothing too hard for God to do: there is no sickness He cannot heal, there is no bad situation that He cannot turn around, there is no failure that He cannot turn into success.

Are you sick? Is anyone in your family sick? Have you lost hope concerning that bad situation that your family is in? Have you repeatedly failed in school and you now think that something is wrong with your brain? It will take just a moment for Jesus Christ to turn your life and situation around, all you need to do is to go to Him in prayers with strong faith in His infinite abilities, and in no time your story will change positively.

Prayer Point: Doctor Jesus, please touch my life and perform the necessary operations that my life needs.

Hymn 10:

1. What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Ev’rything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Ev’rything to God in prayer!

2. Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
Can we find a Friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our ev’ry weakness,
Take it to the Lord in prayer!

3. Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In His arms He’ll take and shield You;
You wilt find a solace there
