Open Heaven Teens for 23 August 2022 | Tuesday: It Is Written

RCCG OPEN HEAVEN TEENS FOR 23RD, TUESDAY AUGUST 2022

TOPIC: IT IS WRITTEN

Read: Matthew 4:1-11

Memorise
But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Matthew 4:4

Our Bible passage for today recounts the temptation experience of Jesus Christ after fasting for forty days and forty nights. One would think that the devil would not be able to come near someone who fasted for that long, yet the tempter came to shoot his shot but he misfired. If you study Jesus responses to the three temptations, He quoted what was written.

He didn’t say, “How dare you tempt me Satan? A whole Me, who is your Lord? A whole Me, who just finished fasting for forty days and forty nights? Instead, He said, It is written…”My child, you can only conquer Satan, who has been before your forefathers by the word of God and not your service in the Church or spiritual status. You can also overcome temptations through the word of God.

Hence, you need to know what is written in the word and fight the tempter with it when he comes to you. Make a conscious effort to memorise at least a Scripture in a day.

Point
Memorise a Scripture today.
