MESSAGE: OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS DATE: FRIDAY 6TH OF MAY 2022
When you invite God into your home, He doesn’t come empty-handed. The same is true of the Holy Spirit. According to 1 Corinthians 12:4-11, the Holy Spirit brings gifts along when He comes to dwell in your heart. These gifts make it possible for a believer to win more souls into the Kingdom of God. In Acts 2:41 , Peter preached one sermon and won 3,000 souls. After his second sermon in Acts 4:4 , he had 5,000 converts.
People only need to see the works of the Holy Spirit in your life and they will surrender to your Jesus. When the Holy Spirit gave me the wisdom to solve my Ph.D. thesis miraculously, some of the lecturers and professors were surprised and asked how I was able to pull it off on my own. I simply told them, Professor Emmanuel helped me! It was the curiosity to meet with this Professor that made some of them surrender their lives to Jesus.
Once the Holy Spirit starts dwelling in you, you will have the ability to give the right answers to those who are confused, bring joy to the broken-hearted as well as heal those who are sick and oppressed.
PRAYER POINT: Father, I am ready; please fill me with Your Spirit afresh.

HYMN: O SPREAD THE TIDINGS ROUND
1. Oh, spread the tidings round,
Wherever man is found,
Wherever human hearts and
human woes abound;
Let every Christian tongue
proclaim the joyful sound:
The Comforter has come!

CHORUS
The Comforter has come,
The Comforter has come!
The Holy Ghost from heaven,
The Father’s promise given;
O spread the tidings ’round,
wherever man is found:
The Comforter has come!
2. Lo, the great King of kings,
with healing in His wings,
To every captive soul a full
deliverance brings;
And thro’ the vacant cells
the song of triumph rings:
The Comforter has come!
3. O boundless Love divine!
how shall this tongue of mine
To wond’ring mortals tell
the matchless grace divine:
That I, a child of hell,
should in His image shine!
The Comforter has come!
4. Sing, till the echoes fly
above the vaulted sky,
And all the saints above
to all below reply,
In strains of endless love,
the song that ne’er will die;
The Comforter has come!
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Luke 24:36-53 , 1 Kings 12-13
