Topic: Follow This Order [Teens Open Heavens 26 October 2018]
Memorise: Let all things be done decently and in order. 1 Corinthians 14:40
Read: 1 Corinthians 14:36-40 (KJV)
Bible In One Year: Jeremiah 17-19, 1 Timothy 6
MESSAGE:
God’s Kingdom is very well organized. There are hierarchies of powers in the Kingdom. There are also principles, procedures, rules and laws guiding the operation of His Kingdom. Unlike the satanic kingdom that employs force, threats and intimidation as tools of control, God’s Kingdom operates by the Spirit of Christ and love.
The truth is, whenever you break the rules and refuse to follow the right order, trouble will surely follow. You are expected to follow the order so as to keep away from trouble. For instance, you are to always involve your parents when making important decisions. You are not to speak rudely to your teachers whatever the situation. Your elder siblings are to be respected at all times. The laid down rules in your school and Church must not be flouted. Do everything you do decently and in order; this is one of the trademarks of genuine children of God.
Key Point: When things are done indecently and disorderly, trouble is just around the corner.

Hymn 2
1. When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.
Chorus:
Trust and obey, for theres no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
2. Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.
3. Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief or a loss, not a frown or a cross,
But is blessed if we trust and obey.
4. But we never can prove the delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows, for the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.
5. Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;
What He says we will do, where He sends we will go;
Never fear, only trust and obey.
