Memory verse Open Heavens Today March 13, 2024

Bible text Open Heavens Today March 13, 2024

A wise son heareth his father's instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

2 A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors shall eat violence.

3 He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

4 The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

Proverbs 13:1-4

Lessons from Open Heavens Today March 13, 2024

In our Open heavens today much emphasis is placed on sacrifice. These are some of the lessons we can learn:

1. If you want to become great, you have to spend a lot of time praying to God.

2. Fasting is also an essential ingredient in the recipe of greatness. Great people must live a fasted life.

3. The word of God is power; we must always study the word of God with keen interest and a heart to receive from him.

4. God does not choose great people randomly; he is interested in how you will act before and after he makes you great.

5. Your roots must be deep so that you can be firm in God

Hymn Open Heavens Today March 13, 2024

Take My Life, And Let It Be

1 Take my life, and let it be

Consecrated, Lord to Thee;

Take my moments and my days,

Let them flow in endless praise,

Let them flow in endless praise.

2 Take my hands, and let them move

At the impulse of Thy love;

Take my feet, and let them be

Swift and beautiful for Thee,

Swift and beautiful for Thee.

3 Take my voice and let me sing

Always, only, for my King;

Take my lips and let them be

Filled with messages from Thee,

Filled with messages from Thee.

4 Take my silver and my gold;

Not a mite would I withhold;

Take my intellect, and use

Every power as Thou shalt choose,

Every power as Thou shalt choose.

5 Take my will and make it Thine,

It shall be no longer mine:

Take my heart, it is Thine own;

It shall be Thy royal throne,

It shall be Thy royal throne.

6 Take my love, my Lord, I pour

At Thy feet its treasure store;

Take myself, and I will be

Ever, only, all for Thee,

Ever, only, all for Thee.

Bible in one year: Judges 4-5

Key Point: Pay the price and you will receive the prize of greatness.
