Teens Open Heavens Tuesday 30 October 2018 Daily Devotional written by Pastor E.A. Adeboye

Topic: Destination of Sin

Memories: Memorise: But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Revelation 21:8

Read: Romans 6:21-23 (KJV)

Bible In One Year: Jer 27-28, 2 Timothy 4

MESSAGE:

This season, all will be well with you if you allow the Lord Jesus Christ to take charge of your life and every situation. You cannot expect all to be well with you if God is not completely involved in every area of your life. Our assurance that all will be well is also hinged on the fact that the Lord deals with problems right from their roots.

According to Romans 6:23, the immediate or remote destination of any act of sin is death. A thief who is caught stealing may be shot dead. A fornicator who sleeps with a person who is not his/her spouse may contact the AIDS virus which can lead to death. What of anger, malice and bitterness? If you take stock of those who die prematurely, you will be shocked to know many people are victims of these sins. So when God says you should keep away from sin, He is only making a clarion call to life; he wants you to live, you must deal with the problem of sin in your life. Any sin that is present in your life is simply leading you to hell. Break away from it today!

Prayer Point: Lord Jesus, let sin no longer reign over my spirit, soul or body, please terminate sin’s death mission in my life.

Hymn 7: I am Thine 0 Lord

1. I am Thine 0 Lord, I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But I long to rise in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee.

Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord
To the cross where Thou hast died;
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

2. Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
By the pow’r of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.

3. Oh, the pure delight of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God
I commune as friend with friend!

4. There are depths of love that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.
