Open Heaven For Teens – 7 December 2025 | MESSAGE
The book of Genesis clearly shows that Abraham’s relationship with God was a cordial one. He walked with God and spoke with Him at different intervals. Whenever he moved to a new location, he would raise an altar there to make his encounter with God concrete. I copied this part of Abraham’s life by designating a prayer room in every house that I have lived in. Today, by the grace of God, one of those altars has become the Open Heavens gallery, where many people have also received personal encounters and miracles.
Beloved, you are not too young to have an altar of prayer in a corner of your room at home or in your hostel, where you dedicate yourself to meeting with God daily. Genesis 12:8 tells us that one of the altars raised by Abraham was on the west of Bethel, and several years later, his grandson, Jacob, had a destiny-changing encounter with an angel in Bethel.
My dear child, start raising altars of prayer and worship in any location you find yourself so that they can become dwelling places for God.

HYMN 30
WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD
1. When we walk with the Lord
in the light of his word,
what a glory he sheds on our way!
While we do his good will,
he abides with us still,
and with all who will trust and obey.
Refrain: Trust and obey, for there’s no other way
to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
2. But we never can prove
the delights of his love
until all on the altar we lay;
for the favor he shows,
for the joy he bestows,
are for them who will trust and obey. [Refrain]
3. Then in fellowship sweet
we will sit at his feet,
or we’ll walk by his side in the way;
what he says we will do,
where he sends we will go;
never fear, only trust and obey. [Refrain]
