OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 17TH OF APRIL 2023 THEME PRAY WITHOUT CEASING 1

DATE: MONDAY 17TH OF APRIL, 2023

MEMORISE: And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Luke 18:1

READ: 1 Thessalonians 5:17

[17]Pray without ceasing.

MESSAGE

I was trying to write down the times we should pray and I could not exhaust the list. If you have asked and have not received, all you need to do is continue to pray. For example, keep on asking until your joy becomes full, and after your joy is full, don’t stop praying because good situations need prayers so they will not become bad. If you are at the top, keep working hard and keep praying so you will remain at the top.

God wants us to pray without ceasing because prayer is our weapon of warfare. This is why we call those that pray all the time “prayer warriors”. Any Christian who will be victorious cannot play with the weapon called prayer. Many Christians wait till they get into trouble before praying: this is not wise. Don’t wait until you are in trouble before you pray. Even though God will deliver you, you would have endured Some pains. Your enemies are always at Work. It is your prayers that will stop them from prevailing over you.

KEY POINT: Pray without ceasing.

1. Standing on the promises of Christ our King,

Thro’ eternal ages let His praises ring:

Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,

Standing on the promises of God.

Chorus

Standing, Standing,

Standing on the promises of God my Saviour

Standing, Standing,

I’m standing on the promises of God.

2. Standing on the promises that can-not fail,

When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail

By the living word of Go I shall prevail,

Standing on the promises of God.

3. Standing on the promises I now can see

Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;

Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,

Standing on the promises of God.

4. Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,

Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,

Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,

Standing on the promises of God.
