TOPIC: BANISH LAZINESS

MEMORISE
“He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.” - (Proverbs 10:4)

READ: Proverbs 6:6-11 (KJV)

6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

7 Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,

8 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.

9 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?

10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

11 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.

MESSAGE

God rewards those who diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6); He does not reward the lazy. If you want to be successful, then you must be diligent.

I and one of my friends got born again at a time when making positive confessions was becoming popular among Christians. At that time, the popular teaching was, 'All you need to do is to say what you want repeatedly, and it will be yours.’ This friend of mine was very diligent with making these positive confessions. He would wake up in the morning and say, "I have a brand new car, in the mighty name of Jesus." Five years later, he was yet to own a car. One day, he asked me, "What's your secret? I've been making positive confessions without tangible results." I replied, "You wake up at 10 am in the morning, and at that time, I would have already put in five hours of work. Also, instead of working, you start making confessions. I'm sorry, but you will keep walking everywhere you go for a long time to come if you don't change."

Some people have become so attached to motivational speaking. They are usually the first to register for conferences; however, when it is time to put in the work, they are often nowhere to be found. No amount of confessions or unapplied knowledge can turn a lazy fellow into a high flyer. A fellow who doesn't wake up every day to make positive confessions or listen to smooth-talking motivational speakers will still succeed if he or she knows how to work hard.

Although I'm in my 80s, I still go about doing God's work diligently. When many other people are sleeping, I am walking about at night, praying. I don't preach shallow sermons; if you listen to my sermons, you will notice that I make reference to many Bible passages. These things don't come by just loafing around. Success in life is not automatic; being born a prince or princess does not mean that a fellow will succeed in life. No matter how much wealth a fellow inherits, if he or she is lazy and refuses to put in the work to multiply the wealth, that fellow will eventually squander everything and begin to suffer. Proverbs 18:9 says that a lazy person is a brother to him who is a great waster.

Beloved, laziness will make you waste privileges. It will also make you unprepared to maximise opportunities. Do not give laziness a chance; banish it from every area of your life.

KEY POINT
Laziness will make you unprepared for opportunities and cause you to waste privileges.

HYMN 4 - TO THE WORK! TO THE WORK! WE ARE SERVANTS OF GOD

1. To the work! To the work! we are servants of God, Let us follow the path that our Master has trod; With the balm of His counsel our strength to renew, Let us do with our might what
our hands find to do.

CHORUS
Toiling on, toiling on,
Toiling on, toiling on,
Let us hope, let us watch,
and labour till the Master
comes.

2. To the work! To the work! let the hungry be fed, To the fountain of life let the weary be led! In the cross and its banner our glory shall be,
While we herald the tidings,
"Salvation is free!"

3. To the work! To the work! there is labour for all, For the kingdom of darkness and error shall fall; And the name of Jehovah exalted shall be, In the loud-swelling chorus,
"Salvation is free!"

4. To the work! To the work! in
the strength of the Lord, And a robe and a crown shall our labour reward, When the home of the faithful our dwelling shall be, And we shout with the ransomed, "Salvation is free!

TOPIC: ALLOW NO BARRIERS TO THE GOSPEL

MEMORISE
“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound.” - (Isaiah 61:1)

READ: 1 Corinthians 9:16-17 (KJV)

16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.

MESSAGE

People keep asking why The Redeemed Christian Church of God is so successful all over the world. As a matter of fact, we are in some nations where Christianity is not allowed. In some of these nations, we baptise people secretly, and whenever we want to talk about the blood of Jesus, we say BOJ. We have had considerable impact in some of these nations because we did not allow anything deter us from spreading the gospel. We hold Bible Study meetings in open fields and miracles happen. Sometimes, the political leaders in such places come quietly at night, acknowledging that our God is the Almighty.

There was once a lady evangelist and missionary who was working in a village in Africa. In that village, she got everybody to become born again. The people realised what God had done for them, and they were on fire for Him. The lady then decided to convert those in the neighbouring village too. She informed the people around her about her plans, but they were not in favour of it. "You can go to another village, ma'am, not there," they advised. She asked, "Why not?" They replied, "Because there are lions on the way. We have been hearing them roaring, and when they roar like that, it means they are hungry. Please, don't go near that village." "But I must go," she insisted. So, a very elderly and feeble man said to her, "Okay, if you must go, I will go with you." The evangelist looked at him and said, "If a lion attacks, even I can defend myself better than you can." The man said, "You don't understand; lions don't attack when they are full. They only kill when they are hungry. So, the idea is this: I will walk ahead of you, the lions will kill and eat me, and then your way will be clear." Those villagers were ready to lay down their lives for the gospel to reach the unreached.

Beloved, God will not be asking you for too much by telling you to preach to your boss, for instance. However, if you are afraid you might lose your job and refuse to do it, you will be hindering an unsaved soul from hearing the gospel and becoming saved. Do not let any barrier keep you from preaching the gospel; God is counting on you to prevent many people from heading towards eternal damnation.

ACTION POINT
Always use every opportunity you have to tell people about Jesus.

HYMN 23 - TAKE MY LIFE, AND LET IT BE

1. Take my life and let it be consecrated Lord to thee,
Take my moment and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless 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.

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.

4. Take my silver and my gold, Not a mite would I withhold, Take my intellect, and use 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,

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.

TOPIC: NO CASE IS HOPELESS

MEMORISE
“Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.” - (Genesis 18:14)

READ: Jeremiah 32:26-27 (KJV)

26 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah, saying,

27 Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

MESSAGE

Some years ago, a woman, who was married to a very wealthy man, was barren. She and her husband sought a solution from everywhere and spent lots of money, but nothing changed. One day, one of her husband's relatives told her to stop wasting her time because some witches had taken her womb, and she could never bear a child. She came to a Holy Ghost Service, and God spoke, "There is someone here; you have just been told that you have no womb. Don't worry because I will give you a set of twins." Not long after that, she became pregnant. At the hospital, a doctor examined her and said, "It looks like there is a child here." She replied, "No, it's not one child; God promised to give me a set of twins." The doctor said, "You should be thanking God that there is even one." She went back for another test about three months later, and the doctor said, "There are two babies here." When the time came for her to deliver, she was flown to one of the best hospitals abroad, and she requested a Caesarean Section. After bringing the babies out, the surgeon searched and could not find a womb inside the woman. When she came around after the anaesthetics she was given wore off, the surgeon came to her and said, "I have performed more than 3,000 operations. This is the first time I am bringing a set of twins out of a woman who has no womb."

And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible. (Mark 10:27)

Beloved, no matter what anybody has said about the negative situations that might exist in your life, your case is not hopeless. When men say that a case is hopeless, it is because they have not met the God who turns hopeless cases around. Elisabeth's barrenness seemed to be a hopeless case until God sent His angel to speak with her husband, Zechariah (Luke 1:5-25). If the world has called you barren and labelled your situation hopeless, in the name that is above every other name, the Lord will visit you and change your story. If you have been weeping in sorrow, you will now weep for joy, in Jesus' name. Don't give up; put your trust firmly in God.

KEY POINT
No case is hopeless if you put your trust firmly in God.

hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

REFRAIN
Savior, Savior, hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

2 Let me at a throne of mercy
find a sweet relief,
Kneeling there in deep contrition;
Help my unbelief. [Refrain]

3 Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace. [Refrain]

4 Thou, the Spring of all my comfort,
more than life to me;
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in heav'n but Thee? [Refrain]

TOPIC: NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS

MEMORISE
“For there is no respect of persons with God.” - (Romans 2:11)

READ: Matthew 8:5-13 (KJV)

5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,

6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.

7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.

8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.

9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the self same hour.

MESSAGE

God is no respecter of persons (Acts 10:34); whatever He has done for somebody else before, He can do for you also. For example, in (1 Kings 17:8-16), there was a widow who had only one meal left. God paid her a visit, and that final meal lasted another three years. In (2 Kings 4:1-7), there was another widow who had only one pot of oil. The Lord moved in her situation, and the oil kept multiplying until there was enough to sell to pay all her debts and live on for her lifetime. If you've seen God do something you desire for somebody, take that as an assurance that He can do the same for you. When you come across an account of a kind of miracle that you desire in the Scriptures, rejoice because your own miracle is on its way. As long as they're His children, God isn't partial to anyone or any type of people; all that matters to Him is that you believe, because all things are possible to those who believe (Mark 9:23). God is a God of principles, and anyone who follows His principles and has faith in Him will experience His goodness and power.

Jesus couldn't do many mighty works in His hometown because of the people's unbelief (Matthew 13:58). Even though they were His townspeople, as long as they didn't have faith, they couldn't receive miracles. Unbelief closed the doors of miracles to them, and Jesus, who had the Holy Spirit without measure (John 3:34), could only heal a few sick people (Mark 6:5). No matter how close you think you are to God, if you harbour unbelief, you may limit what He can do in your life and through you.

When someone has faith, regardless of the fellow's nationality, ability, or status, he or she will experience great miracles. When Jesus was on earth, while some Jews were dying in their sicknesses because of their unbelief, some Gentiles were receiving jaw-dropping miracles. The Centurion in today's Bible reading is an example of a Gentile whose faith attracted miracles. He understood that distance isn't a barrier when faith is present, and Jesus was amazed at his great faith.

Beloved, if you have faith in God concerning a miracle you've seen or read about, God is able to replicate the same in your life. It doesn't matter how terrible your situation is or the obstacles that surround you; if you believe, you will see God's glory at work (John 11:40).

KEY POINT
God is no respecter of persons. He only respects and responds to His principles and our faith.

TOPIC: TECHNOLOGY CANNOT TRAIN THEM

MEMORISE
“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” - (Proverbs 22:6)

READ: Proverbs 29:15 (KJV)

15 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.

MESSAGE

Thank God we can reach countless people around the world with the gospel through various technological devices and the internet. However, just as we are reaching many people with the gospel using technology, the devil is also using the same technology to reach people, including children. Many children now have access to pornographic sites through phones and tablets, and paedophiles manipulate children into immoral affairs through the internet. This is why, as good as technology is, parents cannot depend on it solely when it comes to raising their children.

When I was younger and there were no computers nor access to calculators, people had to do arithmetic by themselves. Nowadays, a lot of the younger generation cannot even calculate how much they are going to pay at a counter unless they use a calculator. If you are a parent, train your children not to overly rely on technology. Train them to do some things by themselves, and this will further enhance their natural abilities. These days, some children find it very difficult to relate properly with people they meet physically because they have become addicted to relating with people online. Also, some young children do not greet other people because they are always wearing headphones and engaging with their electronic devices. You must not allow technology to make your children socially deficient or emotionally handicapped. You must ensure that you encourage them to develop their natural gifts and talents while also teaching them to interact properly with the world around them.

It is really sad that some children are bullied online and are plunged into depression because of what someone online said to them. Parents must be vigilant. They shouldn't depend on technology to keep their children occupied when they don't want to be bothered; they just might be handing them over to the devil. Don't delegate your children's training and upbringing to technology. If you don't know what your children are doing on their electronic devices at every instance, then you are depending on technology to train them for you, and trust me, technology was not developed to be a godly parent. Today's memory verse says that you should train a child in the way he or she should go. Do the apps your children engage with daily know the way they should go?

Parents, spend time with your children and train them yourself. I pray that God will protect all our children from the devil's agenda to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), in Jesus' name.

KEY POINT
Parents should spend quality time with their children and be mindful of what they have access to through technology.

3. If I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside: Bear me through the swelling torrent, Land me safe on Canaan's side: Songs of praises! Songs of praises! I will ever give to Thee (2ce).

4. Saviour, come! We long to see thee, long to dwell with thee above and to know in full communion, all the sweetness of Thy love. Come, Lord Jesus! Come, Lord Jesus! Take thy waiting people home (2ce)
