Open Heaven 15 June 2025 TOPIC – Talk To Your Father
MEMORISE: “And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.” – Galatians 4:6 (KJV)
READ: Romans 8:14-17 (KJV)
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalms 56-61
Open Heaven 15 June 2025 MESSAGE
During my regular morning prayer walk one day, I remembered a joke. I was preparing for a ministers’ conference, so l tried to push the joke out of my thoughts. However, I sensed that God wanted to tell me something through the joke, so I allowed myself to think about it. During the conference, I shared the joke, which goes thus: A husband and his wife had been quarrelling for a long time. Things got so bad that they said they wouldn’t talk to each other anymore. One night, the husband, who was a heavy sleeper, wrote a note for his wife, “Darling, I have to catch a plane at 8am. Please wake me at 6am.” He placed the note on his wife’s side of the bed and slept. When he woke up the following morning, it was 8am, and his wife had gone to work. He was furious, and as he fumed, he saw a note on his side of the bed where his wife wrote, “Darling, wake up. It’s 6am.” After sharing the joke, God told me, “Tell My people: I won’t talk to those of you who don’t talk to Me.” God loves it when you talk to Him, and when you do, you invite Him to also speak with you.

When the disciples asked Jesus to teach them to pray, the first thing He said was, “When you pray, say, ‘Our Father…” (Luke 11:2). No father loves it when his children don’t talk to him. As a father, I enjoy it when my children spend time with me. 1 John 3:1 says that the Father has bestowed such great love on you by calling you His son. John 8:35 says that a servant doesn’t abide in the house, but a son abides forever. As God’s precious child, you have access to Him at all times. You can call on Him and talk to Him about anything, and He will respond.
If you’re a child of God, seek to be more intimate with your Father every day (Philippians 3:10). If, however, you’re not yet a child of God, then you cannot have access to Him until you acknowledge Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. If you were once a Christian but have backslidden and disconnected yourself from God like the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32), run back into His waiting arms.
Beloved, God longs and seeks for His children to worship Him in spirit and in truth (John 4:23). Fulfil His desire by speaking with Him continually.
Open Heaven 15 June 2025 ACTION POINTS:
Talk to your heavenly Father every day. Also, today is Father’s Day; call or spend time with your father or any other father figure in your life.
Open Heaven 15 June 2025 HYMN 6 – I Am So Glad That Our Father In Heaven
1 I am so glad that our Father in Heaven
Tells of His love in the Book He has given;
Wonderful things in the Bible I see,
This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.
Refrain
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me.
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves even me.
2 Jesus loves me and I know I love Him;
Love brought Him down my lost soul to redeem;
Yes, it was love made Him die on the tree:
Oh, I am certain that Jesus loves me.
3 In this assurance I find sweetest rest,
Trusting in Jesus, I know I am blessed;
Satan, dismayed, from my soul now doth flee,
When I just tell him that Jesus loves me.
4 Oh, if there’s only one song I can sing,
When in His beauty I see the great King,
This shall my song through eternity be,
“Oh, what a wonder that Jesus loves me!”
5 If one should ask of me, how can I tell?
Glory to Jesus, I know very well!
God’s Holy Spirit with mine doth agree,
Constantly witnessing Jesus loves me.

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
