EXCERPTS FROM SUNDAY SERVICE . 20/7/2024

TOPIC: LORD, RECHARGE MY SPIRIT. RECONNECT AND MAKE ME AVAILABLE FOR YOU
MINISTERING: PASTOR EMMANUEL JOHNSON
TEXT: PSALM 51:10-13

We're in such times where everything seems to weighdown our spirit. As such there is need for our spirit to be recharged and revived.

These are not the times to desire to be like another person because you don't know how they are in the spirit.

WHAT KIND OF GENERATION ARE WE IN?
We're in a generation where people are struggling to survive. They no longer think of praying, studying the Bible and having fellowship with God.

Matthew 24:12
We're in a generation where the thing sof God is no more important to people again. The live of many has waxed cold.

We're in a generation where people like darkness more than light.

We're in a generation where people love lies than truth even in the church.

We're in a generation where comedy and sport gathers more people than crusades.

Where in a generation where everybody wants to see signs and wonders but they are not willing to pray.

We're in a generation where men of God are becoming topics for joke.

We're in a generation where people see church as a place to hide and do adultery and think God will not see them.

We're in a generation where if you kiss and stand naked on the internet you will attract many likes.

This is the time we should pray and ask God to revive our spirit.

1 JOHN 4:20, JOHN 12:48, 2 TIMOTHY 3:1-5, MATTHEW 5:46-48, ROMANS 12:2-5, 1 CORINTHIANS 10:12.

CONCLUSION
When you go down in the spirit run to God in prayer and connect in the spirit because something is about to happen.

WHAT TO DO TO BE REVIVED IN THE SPIRIT
1. Go back to your place of prayer.
2. Read your Bible often.
3. Engage in active evangelism.

8. You have a good heart for people and find pleasure in giving, but others have repaid you with evil. If you can say 'Amen' in a loud voice, a miracle will shock your life this month!

9. You have been treated badly in your place of work despite your efforts; your boss and fellow workers cannot appreciate you and instead work against you. I pray that your boss be transferred or removed, and you have peace.

EXCERPTS FROM THE GRAND FINALE OF BAN SUNDAY SCHOOL ONE-WEEK INTENSIVE PROGRAMME

THEME: GROW THE SUNDAY SCHOOL, GROW THE CHURCH
TEACHER: MR. BLESSED DICKSON
TEXT: ACTS 13:1-15, PSALM 119:9-16

INTRODUCTION

Sunday school was founded by Robert Raikes in Gloucester, England in 1780. He observed that children were neglected and left out of church. Despite criticism and opposition, Raikes pioneered what is known today as Sunday school to educate children. After Raikes' death in 1811, Sunday school had already taken root in England, supported by influential figures like William Fox, John and Charles Wesley. In 1785, Sunday school began in America and soon became integral to national life.

Today, Sunday school is an essential agent and medium of church growth and development, serving all ages in the church.

WHAT IS SUNDAY SCHOOL?

Sunday school is a church-sponsored educational agency that functions on Sundays, providing curricula for Bible study and evangelistic emphasis for all ages.

BENEFITS OF SUNDAY SCHOOL

- It provides a safe space for kids to practice faith discussions outside the home.
- It offers a platform for older children, teens, and adults to express their gifts and serve God.
- It facilitates effective evangelism and church planting.
- It promotes church growth.
- It provides opportunities for independent service in the church.
- It offers systematic Bible teachings.
- Many great ministers of God have their roots in the Sunday school department of their church.
- It builds and impacts lives greatly.
- Sunday school today is the church of tomorrow.

CONCLUSION

2 Timothy 3:15 states, "From childhood, you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus." When the church prioritizes Sunday school, it will inevitably have a bigger and better membership.

Excerpts from our BCBC grand finale. 11/8/2024

THEME: Living as Children of God's Kingdom
TEXT: Matthew 19:14, Ephesians 6:1, Colossians 3:20, Proverbs 22:6, 2 Timothy 1:5-7

The Believers Children Bible Ministry (BCBM), Ata Obio Akpa Branch, concluded their 2024 National Children Camp Programme on Sunday, August 11, 2024, with intensive and interesting teachings to revive their spirits and show them the right options to take in life, so as not to regret in the future. This follows the biblical instruction that says, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it" (Matthew 19:14). But Jesus said, "Suffer little children, and forbid them not to come unto me, for such is the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 19:14).

Parents, if you are genuine believers, let your children know what you believe. Show them the character and attitude of a true believer in your home and environment, so they can follow. As Paul said to Timothy, "When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois and thy mother Eunice, I am persuaded that in thee also" (2 Timothy 1:5). Parents, what you have in you is what you transfer to your children. It would be inconsistent for a father who is a masquerade leader to be surprised to see his child wearing an Akpan Ekpo masquerade.

CHARACTERS OF CHILDREN OF GOD'S KINGDOM (Philippians 2:5)

- They follow God's rules and show respect to authority.
- They forgive others without hatred, bitterness, or envy in their hearts.
- They read, study, and practice the word of God.
- They serve God without hypocrisy.
- They obey the commandments of God, their parents, teachers, and elders.
- They are bold in Christ and speak the word of God boldly.

BENEFITS OF LIVING AS CHILDREN OF GOD'S KINGDOM (Colossians 3:20)

- We shall be blessed by God.
- We will live long on earth.
- We shall excel in our endeavors.
- Peace and happiness will be our portion.
- God's protection is guaranteed.
- Eternal life with Christ awaits us.

EXCERPTS FROM OUR SUNDAY SERVICE 4/8/2024.

TOPIC: AM NOT FOR SALE NOR FOR DESTRUCTION
SPEAKER: PASTOR EMMANUEL JOHNSON
TEXT: ISAIAH 52:1-6, GENESIS 37:18-28, MATTHEW 26:14-24

August is a month of release and freedom from whatever bo***ge or prison you were in. Just like a property owner can place a sign that says "THIS PROPERTY IS NOT FOR SALE" to deter potential buyers, we too can declare that our lives are not for sale or destruction.

However, just as a father or mother can sell their child physically or spiritually, we can also be sold out to bo***ge or slavery. But if we are mature enough, we can decide for ourselves and break free from those chains.

If you have been sold spiritually, Isaiah 52:1-6 has a powerful message for you: "Awake, awake! Put on your strength, put on your beautiful garment. Henceforth, no power will be able to come close to you. Shake yourself from the dust and sit in the place of honor. Remove the chains of slavery and captivity from your neck. I have redeemed you without payment."

In the Bible, we see examples of people being sold out:

- Joseph (Genesis 37:18-28) was sold by his brethren to Ishmaelite traders and later to Potiphar.
- Jesus Christ (Matthew 26:14-24) was sold by Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Him for 30 pieces of silver.

But I speak for you today in the name of Jesus: be free and let the chains be broken! Come out of your bo***ge and experience new life in Jesus' name. Amen.

EXCERPTS FROM OUR SUNDAY SERVICE 28/7/2024

TOPIC: BE LED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD (PART 1)
SPEAKER: PASTOR EMMANUEL JOHNSON
TEXT: ROMANS 8:12-14, GENESIS 34:1-31

NOTE:

- Be sensitive to your spirit to reject what your sinful nature urges you to do.
- What you do today by the direction and desire of the flesh awaits a payback time.
- Anyone who lives by the dictates of the flesh dies. This is the word of God, and it's true.
- The reasonable service of every believer is to present your body as a living sacrifice and be dead to sin.
- Once you are touched by God, you will no longer be conformed but transformed in your mind and heart, which are the directors of the body.

Genesis 34:1 - Shechem, the son of Hamor the prince, was led and controlled by the flesh. He could not resist the whispering of Satan in his mind against Dinah. A lot of men are like that; once they see anything in a skirt, their heart and mind cannot be controlled anymore, until they do what their master is telling them to do. Shechem took Dinah and r***d her. Afterward, his eyes were opened, and his mind recalculated that he should follow due process for marriage by seeing her parents. But it was too late. Shechem, his father Hamor, and the entire men of the city died as a result of one man's sin of lust by Dinah's brothers Simeon and Levi.

Child of God, ask yourself:

- How do I detect the voice of God from the voice of the flesh?
- How do you respond when you are seduced?

HOW TO OVERCOME THE FLESH:

1. Be dead to the flesh (Romans 6:11).
2. Put aside the ideas of the flesh.
3. Follow the leading of the Holy Spirit.
4. Be conscious of flesh desires.
5. Stay in prayer and God's presence.
6. Lean on God's strength to resist temptation.

EXCERPTS FROM OUR SUNDAY SERVICE 21/7/2024

TOPIC: 7 THINGS THAT GOD HATES
TEACHER: PASTOR EMMANUEL JOHNSON
TEXT: PROVERBS 6:16-19, AMOS 5:15

Things we do and see as common, God says He hates, and it is an abomination before God.

1. A PROUD LOOK (James 4:6, Job 40:12, Proverbs 21:4, Psalm 101:5)
A person who wants their will to be above God's will, representing self-centeredness and arrogance, with an exalted self-esteem that looks down on others.

2. A LYING TONGUE (Proverbs 26:28)
God hates liars because He is a true God, expecting His followers to speak the truth at all times, as He did. Many Christians see lying as a small sin, but to God, sin is sin, with no hierarchy.

3. HANDS THAT SHED INNOCENT BLOOD (2 Kings 21:16, Matthew 27:24)
There is nothing in this world worth shedding human blood. If the blood does not find you out like Cain's did Abel's, it will be like David's did Uriah's. Do not kill; it is an abomination before God.

4. A HEART THAT DEVISETH WICKED IMAGINATIONS (Proverbs 16:26, Jeremiah 46:14, Matthew 15:19)
The heart is the engine room of all wickedness. Be careful of your thoughts; select good from bad.

5. FEET THAT MAKE HASTE TO RUN TO EVIL (2 Kings 1:1-10)
God hates the enjoyment of evil. Running into evil means demonstrating a great delight and enjoyment of evil and eagerness to participate in it.

6. A FALSE WITNESS THAT SPEAKETH LIES (Proverbs 19:9, Matthew 26:59)
Bearing false witness against someone is a sin, even if it's against your father or siblings. God hates it.

7. HE THAT SOWETH DISCORD AMONG BRETHREN (Proverbs 6:14, James 3:16)
Sowing discord causes envy, strife, bitter conflict, and often violent dissension. James warns against it, and God says it is an abomination before Him.

Message: Let us hate what God hates and love what God loves. Flee from evil and love God only (Psalm 101:6-8, Proverbs 24:2-5).

GOD BLESS YOU AS YOU READ.
