OPEN HEAVENS FOR TEENS

THEME: LEARN HOW TO COOK


MEMORISE: Esau prepared a delicious meal and brought it to his father. Then he said, "Sit up, my father, and eat my wild game so you can give me your blessing." Genesis 27:31 (NLT) 


READ: Genesis 25:29-34

[29]And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:

[30]And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.

[31]And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.

[32]And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?

[33]And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.

[34]Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.


MESSAGE 

Today's Bible passage shows that cooking is not gender- based. Esau and Jacob learned how to cook delicious meals from their mother, Rebecca. Little wonder their father, Isaac, requested for a good meal to be made for him by his eldest son so he could pronounce blessings on him. This invariably shows that those who cook well always provoke blessings from whoever eats their food. 

I cited these specific Scriptures so that you will know that cooking is not gender-based. In our days, girls were trained to cook and perform house chores while boys were allowed to play football. However, in this current age, the dividing line is fading between boys and girls as both genders now have interest in the same fields. In fact, I know some boys who cook perfectly: some have restaurants that serve all kinds of meals ranging from Nigerian to intercontinental dishes. 

Learning how to cook is one of the most interesting things you can do. You can start learning how to cook at home or in school through subjects like Home Economics or Food and Nutrition. Learning to cook well will not only help you to eat healthier, it will also help you to save money as an adult.


ACTION POINT

Volunteer to cook any type of meal for your parents this week. 


HYMN 17 - THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSING

1. There shall be showers of blessing"

This is the promise of love;

There shall be season refreshing

Send from a savior above


CHORUS

Showers of blessing

Showers of blessing we need;

Mercy drop round are falling

But for the showers we plead.


2. "There shall be showers of blessing"

Precious reviving again;

Over the hills and the valleys;

Sound of abundance of rain.


3. "There shall be showers of blessing"

Send them upon us Oh Lord!

Grant to us a refreshing;

Come now and honour Thy Word.


4. "There shall be showers of blessing"

Oh, that today thy might fall,

Now as to God we are confessing,

Now as on Jesus we call!


5. "There shall be showers of blessing"

If we but trust and obey;

There shall be season refreshing,

If we let God have his way.
