Open Heaven 30th September 2017 Message
As we run the race that is set before us on the straight and narrow way to Heaven, it is possible to slip and fall. You should however note that falling or making mistakes along
There is no depth you can sink to that the mercy of God cannot draw you out of. If you genuinely ask God for forgiveness and mercy, His grace will surely lift you up. If you are still down in sin, it is time to come up into righteousness.
Are you in a situation where it appears all hope of you ever rising again is lost? No matter where you are, receive God's touch of mercy at this very moment and come up again in Jesus' Name!

Today's reading tells us that the children of Israel who disobeyed God and were overthrown in the wilderness are lessons to us who are now

It further says we should not tempt Christ like the lsraelites did and died of snake bites. It even warns us of the dangers of
The Israelites murmured and were destroyed. When you see the pit your predecessors have fallen into, a wise follower will tread a lot more carefully to avoid ending up where they ended
If you learn from the mistakes of others, you will not fall where they fell, and you will not perish where they perished but if you fail to learn, you too will soon become a signpost that tells others not to follow the path you followed. How ironic its for someone who was aware of the pitfalls that consumed others to end up in the same pit.
