TOPIC:Â Homosexuality – Not Allowed
MEMORISE: But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof. Romans 13:14
READ: Romans 1:24-32
24. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25. Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
- And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
- And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
-
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
-
Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
-
Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
- Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Open Heaven for Teens 1 February 2022 MESSAGE:
In the beginning, God had a perfect plan for humanity. He created Adam and Eve so that the human race could be fruitful and continue to replenish the earth. However, the devil brought sin into the world, including homosexuality which is against Gods will. God’s only plan for marriage is a union between a man and a woman, not a man and man or woman and woman.
Due to satanic manipulations, some young people now believe the wrong message that they were born with feelings towards people of the same sex. I want you to know that this is a lie of the enemy. Your church leader may be saying this is a new reality backed up by science but that doesn’t change the standard of God in His word about this present reality.
If, due to things you’re exposed to or past sexual molestation, you find yourself being attracted to the same sex, don’t dwell on that demonic thought. Immediately, open up to a sound and Spirit-filled elder who will give you godly counsel. Also, set aside a day every week to fast and pray that God should redirect your desires to His will.
PRAYER POINT: Father, I receive Your grace to overcome every form of sexual temptation, addiction and perversion, in Jesus name.
HYMN: I AM THINE O LORD
1.I am Thine, O 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.
CHORUS
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.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Matthew 21:23-46 , Exodus 27-28
