Open Heaven for Teens 22nd December 2022 MESSAGE
Have you ever wondered why we have different seasons? A good farmer will never joke with seasons because he/she understands that there is a certain period during which seeds are best planted so they can grow and be harvested later. The same principle is applicable to life.
My child, there is a time for everything on earth and as children of God, we are expected to understand times and seasons so that we dont labour in vain. For instance, it would be wrong of you to be concerned about the kind of husband or wife you would marry when you should be concerned with your studies and how to make your life better.
Having a girl/boyfriend at this time is misplaced priority.Having a good understanding of time will also guide ones actions. For instance, if you read the Gospels, you will understand that when the Pharisees attacked Jesus, sometimes, He would be silent, other times He would speak. He knew when to speak and when to be quiet, so should you. Know when to be quiet and when to speak.
PRAYER POINT
Father, please give me the wisdom to know the right time for everything.
