Open Heaven For Teens 22 February 2026 | MESSAGE:
Dating is one of the most debated topics among Christian teenagers and youth these days. This is because there are so many mindsets and beliefs about dating. My dear child, let me inform you that dating is not for children or teenagers. One must attain a level of maturity in all areas before thinking of going on dates: spiritual, financial, mental, emotional, and so on. This is why I always encourage my teenage daughters to stay focused on their personal growth and career aspirations, rather than becoming distracted by relationships. These days, I have heard that young men ask ladies they are dating a question, “What are you bringing to the table?”
My dear child, whether you are a boy or a girl, don’t wait until you are asked, ‘What are you bringing to the table?’ Focus on building yourself up in every aspect of life so that when you meet the right person and are ready to settle down in marriage, he or she already knows that you are a person of value and substance.
Quiz: According to Proverbs 4:23, what should you keep with all diligence?
KEY POINT:
Forget dating for now. Focus on building yourself up in the most important aspects of life.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: MARK 4:21-41, NUMBERS 7

All to Him I freely give;
I will ever love and trust Him,
In His presence daily live.

I surrender all, I surrender all;
All to Thee, my blessed Savior,

3 All to Jesus I surrender,
Lord, I give myself to Thee;
