– RCCG Sunday School Teacher Manual 8 September 2024 – The Deity Of Jesus (1)

INTRODUCTION: Generally, a ‘deity’ is a ‘god or goddess’ in a polytheistic religion (belief in many gods). Also, a being of divine status, quality, or nature is referred to as a deity. In the context of the Christian faith, the Deity is the Creator and Supreme Being. The argument about the Deity of Jesus Christ is common among people of other major religions (although they teach that Jesus was a prophet, a good teacher or a godly man). However,  the Bible tells us that Jesus was infinitely more than the three combined (Matthew 16:13-16). Jesus is God. He is Divine.

LESSON OUTLINES:

  1. THE DIVINITY OF JESUS CHRIST
  2. REASONS THAT JESUS IS GOD

1. THE DIVINITY OF JESUS CHRIST

Here are some of the biblical evidences that Jesus is God:

  1. Jesus is a member of the Godhead (Genesis 1:26a) referred to as the Trinity (God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit). The Bible clearly states that the Godhead resides in Jesus Christ bodily (Colossians 2:6-9). God the Father refers to Jesus as God (Hebrews 1:8).
  2. Old Testament prophecies of Christ announce His deity as the mighty God (Isaiah 9:6).
  3. Jesus says in John 10:30 “I and My Father are one” and “before Abraham was, I AM” (John 8:58). Jesus, announcing His identity as “I AM” is a direct application of the Old Testament name for God (Exodus 3:14). Jesus receives worship several times in the Scripture (Matthew 2:11; 28:9; Luke 24:52). He never rebukes people for worshipping Him.
  4. The apostles, through divine inspiration testify that Jesus is God. For instance, John 1:1 says “…the Word was God.” John 1:14 says “And the Word became flesh…” This indicates that Jesus is God in the flesh. Thomas the disciple in John 20:28 declares to Jesus, “My Lord and my God” Jesus did not correct him. Apostle Paul describes Him as, “…the great God and our Saviour, Jesus Christ” (Titus 2:13). Apostle Peter says the same, “…of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 1:1).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1: Share with the class any encounter with non-believers who reject the fact that Jesus is God.

2. REASONS THAT JESUS IS GOD

The provision of salvation only works if Jesus is God, hence the divinity of Jesus is the why He is the only way of salvation (Acts 4:12; John 14:6). Jesus is God incarnate, the eternal Alpha and Omega (Revelation 1:8; 22:13). Jesus has the right to forgive sins. This is something only God can do (Acts 5:31; Luke 5:20-24). Jesus will “judge the living and the dead,” (2 Timothy 4:1) and reward all deeds in the flesh (Revelation 22:11-12).

Some titles that uniquely belong to Jehovah (the formal name of God) in the  Old Testament are used for Jesus. For instance, “Redeemer” (Psalms 19:14; 78:35) is used for Jesus in the New Testament (Titus 2:13-14; Revelation 5:9). Jesus is called Emmanuel-“God with us” (Matthew 1:23).

 

Some actions that can be accomplished only by God are credited to Jesus. For instance, He created and sustains the universe (John 1:3; Colossians 1:16-17). He possesses attributes that only a deity can have: Eternality (John 8:58), Omnipresence (Matthew 18:20, 28:20), Omniscience (Matthew 16:21), and Omnipotence (Luke 7:13-15).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2: Students should distinguish between the biblical explanation of Christ being God (John 1:1-5, 14) and the opinion of people of other religions.

CONCLUSION: Christians should not only believe in the deity of Jesus but must be bold to proclaim and defend it scripturally.

QUESTIONS

  1. Give four  biblical pieces of evidence that Jesus is God.
  2. Explain three reasons Jesus is God.

ASSIGNMENT: Write out five things Jesus did in your life that no man can do. (2×5=10 Marks).

Why The Devil Fear Fellowship Between God and Man. RCCG SOD Year 7

The devil fears fellowship between God and man. why? T Like we said in lesson GAI, God the Father. God the Son and God the Holy Spirit wants to fellowship with you. It is easy to guess why, the devil will not want that to happen. Satan has managed to reduce the fellowship between God and man to mere petition time, a begging session. We now go to the Presence of God when we are in need and we spend the whole time before God saying ‘give me this, give me that’. The devil likes this very much because he knows the moment you come as beggar, you will be treated like a beggar but there is one beautiful thing, we can by the grace of God, go back to fellowship with God and then the devil will be in trouble.

Once upon a time in 1 Samuel 5: 1-3, the Philistines took the Ark of God from the children of Israel. captured it and then took in to the house of their god.

“And the Philistines took the Ark of God, and brought it from Ebenezer unto Ashdod. When the Philistines took the Ark of God, they brought it unto the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon, and when they of Ashdod arose early in the morrow, behold Dagon was fallen upon his face to the earth before the Ark of God. And they took Dagon and set him back on his place again”. 

 

The Ark of the covenant of God represents the Presenece of God On the cover is the Mercy Seat, on both sides are two facing one another. When the angels face each other, there is unity and God is there. When they turn from each other, there is disunity. God is no more in their midst. Wherever there is unity, God is there, and wherever there is disunity, you can be sure, God is not there. Wherever the Ark of God.is, God is there (Read in Exodus 25: 17-20) 

Dagon represents satan, and when the Philistines now took God into the presence of satan, when they woke up the following morning, they found satan lying prostrate. Whenever you begin to fellowship with God, whenever you allow God to come into your home, into your situation, into your life, into your business, whenever you worship God the Father, God the Son and God ne Holy Spirit, in such a way that they begin to stay with you, ay devil that was there before is bound to prostrate.

 

The reason why many of us are still captives today is because we have not learnt how to fellowship with God correctly. It is because we have spent all the time asking instead of fellowshipping with God correctly. Not only will satan lie prostrate, in fact, he will be broken into pieces.

REASONS WHY SATAN FEARS FELLOWSHIP BETWEEN GOD AND MAN In 1Samuel 5: 4-5. the Bible says.

“And when they arose early on the morrow morning, behold, Dagon was fallen upon his face to thr ground before the Ark of the LORD; and the head of dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the stump of Dagon was left on him. Therefore, neither the priests of dagon, nor any that come into dagon’s house, tread on the threshold of dagon in Ashdod unto this day.”

When you fellowship with God properly, the presence of God will come down. And when the presence of God comes down, the following will happen:

#1  Satan Will Bow.

They took the Ark of the Covenant of God, and put it in the house of Dagon, and when they woke up the following morning. Dagon has fallen on his face down before the Ark of covenant. They picked him up and put him on his feet again. When they

came the following morning, not only was Dagon fallen on his face, his head was cut off, his hands were cut off, and they discussed and said this cannot be a god.

So when you fellowship with the Almighty God, everything that is satanic in your life will be destroyed.

#2 Your Weakness Will Be Exposed.

As soon as you bring the presence of God into your life, your weaknesses will be exposed, destroyed and replaced by the strength of the Almighty God.

When we talk about the strong holds of the enemy in our lives. we are really talking about our own weaknesses (2Corinthians 10: 3-5). When you bring God in. your weaknesses will be exposed, they will fall flat on their faces and the Almighty God will destroy them.

#3 Your enemies will fade away.

If there are certain demons holding you captive and you are not aware that they are there, you just know that something is wrong, you are not where you are supposed to be, you are not doing things you want to do, you want to work for God but you cannot, you want to live holy and you are failing, what is happening? There must be certain forces hidden. Bring in the Spirit of God, bring in the Almighty God by way of worship and all these hidden forces will vanish.

 

In 2 Samuel 22:45-47, the Bible says,

“Strangers shall submit themselves unto me; as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me, Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places. The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.”

The Bible says all the strangers, demons, the hidden forces that have been holding you captive, when you bring in the Rock of salvation, they will fade away, they will be frightened out of their closed places. I pray that, that will be your lot today in Jesus name.

4. Your Strength Will Be Renewed In Isaiah 40: 29,31 the Bible says, “He giveth power to the fainth; and to them that have no might He increaseth strength. But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.”

The strength of God will replace your weakness if you bring the presence of God into your life. The bible says, God gives strength to those who have no strength. He will increase the strength of those who are weak. They that wait upon Him will exchange their strength.

 

#5 God Will Fight Your Battles For You

When you fellowship with God correctly. God will fight your battles for you by bringing problems to the camp of your enemy There will be problems for your enemies. The Ark of the covenant represents the Presence of the Almighty God and when you are fellowshipping with God, you are bringing, as it were, the Ark of the Covenant into your home. And when you bring in the Ark of the covenant of God, there will be problems for your enemies

In 1 Samuel 5: 6-10, the Bible says.

“But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and He destroyed them, and smote them with emerods, even Ashdod and the coasts thereof. And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, The Ark of God of Israel shall not abide with us: for his hand is sore upon us, and upon Dagon our god. They sent therefore and gathered all the lords of the Philistines unto them, and said, What shall we do with the Ark of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the Ark of the God of Israel be carried about unto Gath. And they carried the Ark of the God of Israel about thither. And it was so, that after they had carried it about, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction; and he smote the men of the city, both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret parts. Therefore they sent the Ark to Ekron, And it came to pass, as the Ark of God came to Ekron, that

the Ekronites cried out, saying, they have brought the Ark of the God of Israel to us, to stay us and our people.”

The only people who can enjoy when the Ark of God is present are those who belong to God. You are one of His disciples, if you invite Him in. He will bring you joy and blessings and peace But every enemy hidden in your house will cry out and say he has brought in God to destroy us because that is what will happen when you begin to worship God correctly. And when God begins to fellowship with you, then problems will come for your enemies.

#6 Your Enemies Will Be Frightened.

According to 1 Samuel 4:3-8, when the Ark of the covenant was brought back into the camp of the Israelites, they shouted unto God with a loud voice of triumph and the ground shook. and when their enemies heard, they were frightened, they said ‘woe unto us, ah, this God has come again, this is the God that destroyed the Egyptians. He is around again to destroy us Whenever you bring in God through fellowship, you get your enemies frightened because they know trouble is on the way.

#7 Your Enemies Will Be Destroyed

In 1 Samuel 6:19-20, the Bible says,

“And He smote the men of Beth-shemesh, because they looked into the Ark of the LORD, even He smote of the people fifty thousand and threescore and ten men; and the people.

 

lamented, because the LORD has smitten many of the people with a great slaughter. And the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to stand before this holy LORD God? And to whom shall he go up from us?

Any demon that follows you into the Presence of God by error is finished because the men of Bethshemesh looked into the Ark of God, they did not know the trouble they were asking for and they died by the thousands.

When you go to worship the Almighty God, in fact anytime you have a feeling that, may be there are some demons around you, just begin to worship God, and they will vanish.

They will perish completely. In 2 Chronicles 20: 22-23, when Jehoshaphat was going to war with so many kings arrayed against him and God told him to get the choir singing. The choir began to sing, they began to fellowship with the Almighty God, and the Bible says, it was the enemies that destroyed themselves. The same thing can happen when you begin to worship the Almighty God correctly.

In Acts 16: 25-26, when Paul and Silas began to sing and to praise God. When they began to say, ‘O LORD our God, how excellent is Thy name and then after some time, they became. angry and they changed their song. They began to say. O God. come down and let your enemies be scattered: O God, arise and let your enemies be scattered.’

When they knew God had come down, they changed that song and they began to sing “The LORD reigneth let the earth tremble And very soon there was an earthquake and before they knew it the prisoners were free and the jailer fell down at the feet of the disciples, begging them. They changed their song again and began to sing, ‘In Jesus name every knee shall bow

So you see when you begin to worship God, you can move from being a prisoner to the one who will be controlling the jailer.

#8 There Will Be Multiple Blessings

Finally, you need to know that business is spiritual warfare. particularly for the Christian. The devil knows that if you prosper in your business, you will be able to help the course of the kingdom of Jesus Christ, so he will try as mush as possible to make sure that you don’t prosper. But you can win this war by fellowshipping with the Father the way you should, because in the story we referred to earlier in 2 Chronicles 20:24-26, you will discover that after the enemies of Jehoshaphat destroyed themselves, it took the army of Jehoshaphat three days to carry away the gold, and the silver that they picked from the dead bodies of their enemies.

If you worship God the way you should worship Him, when you take your money to the bank, it will take the accountant, the cashier and everybody, three days to count your money. In other words, when you go to the bank may be once a month.

 

they will tell every customer that they are sorry, and cannot attend to them until after three days.

Let us learn to worship God correctly. You may not know this, but the devil does. He knows that if you worship God correctly, he cannot stand before you, he cannot stand in your way, he cannot hinder your business.

So let us change our attitude. Let us change our prayers from asking and asking and asking to fellowshipping with God, and since practice makes perfect, how about spending some five minutes now to fellowship with the Father, with the Son and with the Holy Spirit, and your deliverance will begin, and your prosperity will begin.

Go ahead now, fellowship with the Father, and with the Son and with the Holy Ghost.

God bless you.

The Purpose Of The Disciple. Part One. RCCG SOD Year 7

Mark 3:13-15 “And he goeth into a mountain and calleth unto Him whom he would, and they came unto Him. And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach. And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils”.

 

God choose whosoever he wills and He called twelve of them disciples and He said there are certain reasons reason why He has choosen these twelves and the reasons are:

  1. So that they could be with Him. that is, He wanted to have fellowship.
  2. So that he could send them forth to preach, so that they would be His Ambassadors. His forerunners. 
  3. So that they might have power to heal sicknesses and diseases an to cast out demons which are part of the work that Jesus Christ himself came to do.

FELLOWSHIP BETWEEN GOD AND MAN 

One of the main reasons for the creation of man is God’s desire for fellowship. In Genesis 1:26 , The Bible says:

 

“And God said , let us make man in our image, after our likeness…”

God said, let us make man in our own image in our likeness, the kind of people who will be like us, so that we can fellowship with them. The Bible tells us , in the garden of Eden. God was always coming coming down in the cool of the day to fellowship with Adam and Eve. Genesis 3:8-9 says: 

“And they heard the voice of the LORD walking in the garden in the cool of the day; and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the tree of the garden . And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto Him. Where art thou?”

 

Before sin came, God has been coming sown to fellowship with them in the cool of the day. As soon as they heard the voice of the Lord in the garden, they would rush to go and meet Him so that their fellowship could begin. On this occasion, they had already sinned, instead of rushing to go and meet God, they ran away from Him. “Adam, where are you? We want fellowship, why are you hiding from Me?”. 

 

God created us in his image so that He can have fellowship with us. Inside of every man is something that longs for fellowship. Nobody really wants to be alone if he is sick. If he is not mentally deranged. Everybody wants fellowship . In fact, it is because of this that God said in Genesis 2:18:

“And he Lord God said , it is not good that the man should be alone; I will make an help meet for him”. God knows the value of fellowship. Nobody is really comfortable alone. 

 

INGREDIENTS OF FELLOWSHIP

When two friends meet , they are sharing fellowship, certain things happen:

  1. Conversation: There will be conversation, a kind of dialogue.
  2. Physical Contact: There will be physical contact like shaking of hands or hugging or if they are that close, for example, husband and wife, there will be kissing.
  3.  Sharing of meals: There will be sharing of meals because when your friend come to visit you, you will want to present something to him. If he meets you while you are eating, if you are true friends , you will just tell him to take his seat. God wants to do the same thing with us. In Revelation 3:20, He said:  “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.”

 

When two friends meet to fellowship, they share meals.

4. EXCHANGE OF GIFTS

Now with real feeds, after fellowshipping, there is always an exchange of gifts. When you come to visit your friend, if you come from a very good home, you will not even come empty handed. You will bring something for him no matter how little. It is not the size of the gift that matters: When you are going, your friend also will not let you go empty handed. There is an exchange of gifts.

5. STRENGTHENING OF FELLOWSHIP

There will be strengthening of the fellowship. In Isaiah 40:31 the Bible says, “But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength…”

In the original, the Bible says, They that wait upon the LORD shall exchange their Strength….”

In other words. He will give their weakness to God unit God will give them His strengh

There will be conversation, physical contact sharing of meade and exchange of gifts All these gu on to strengthen the fellowship, or the strengthening of the friendship.

EATING WITH GOD

We may ask the question will God eat out food? We are talking of fellowshipping with God now and we have mentioned sharing of food. Can we when we want to eat say. Father come and join us as we eat Acts 10:41 says,

-Not to all the people, but unto us who did eat and drink with Him after He rose from the dead” Let us see this in Luke 24:36-43 which says.

“And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, peace be unto you. But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. And He said unto them, why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? behold my hands and my feet, that is I myself: handle me and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones as ye see me have. And when He had thus spoken, He shewed His hands and His feet. And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, He said  unto them, have ye here any meat? And they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. And He eat them. Thus that after Jesus rose up from the dead. He ate bread and fish with the disciples. And if He could eat bread and fish, Lam sure He can eat jollof rice also.

And the reason why children of God are not afraid of food, the reason why true disciples of Jesus Christ cannot bothered by whatever you put in their food is because, they w invite Jesus to join them in the eating and the moment Jesus touches the food any poison there of course will become water Whenever you invite the Almighty God to share your food, you can be sure the food becomes safe. I want you to know that spirit beings can eat human food. There was an occasion here before. There was one young man who could eat the food of eight people. He was brought here because he was demon possessed. There is no amount of food you put before him he could not finish. The interesting thing is that there is no sign in his stomach that he has eaten this food. He was questioned and he said he was not the only one eating the food. poisoned

In any case. I want God to share my food and I am sure you want Him to share your food also. So invite Him in so that. He an have fellowship with you even concerning your food. 

 

INVITATION TO FELLOWSHIP

in Matthew11:26 “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden. and I swift give you rest.

This is an invitation He says come and rest. in John 7:37. One

In the last day that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying. If any man thirst, let him come to me and drink.

This is another invitation from Hom emne and drink

mô to Isaiah 1: 18 the file says. “Come now, and let us reason together…

In other words, He says, come, let us chat. Come and rest. come and drink, come and chat, Invitation to fellowship.

FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD THE FATHER

Psalm 100:4

“Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise, be thankful unto Him and bless His name.”

How do we fellowship with God the Father?

By Thanksgiving and Praises: The Bible tells us that when you are going into fellowship with

 

God, you are to enter His gates with thanksgiving and enter Hu courts with praise. When you want to fellowship with God the Father, begin with thanksgiving and move on to praise,

2. By Clapping and Shouting:

In Psalm 47: 1. the Bible says,

“O clap your hand, all ye people, shout unto God with the loud voice of triumph.”

You can also fellowship with the Father by clapping, by shouting a real shout of triumph. You have probably seen me from time to time, may be at the Holy Ghost Service or any other major service, after you have been singing and praising God, clapping and dancing, when I come, I add the other elements. I ask somebody to shout Halleluyah. That loud voice of triumph is a sign that we want to fellowship with Daddy

3. By Making a Joyful Noise:

Psalm 100: 1 tells us another way that we can fellowship with Him: Verse I says

“Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.”

How many people are to make joyful noise unto the Lord? All the lands. This includes the land of Nigeria, that is you and me.

4 By Singing:

The Bible says in Psalm 100: 2.

“Serve the LORD with gladness; come before his presence with singing.”

 

So we shout, we make a joyful noise unto the Lord. God wants us to come to Him like little children. And any time we want to fellowship with our Father, we should do it with jumping. clapping and dancing like little kids

5. By Kneeling and Bowing Down Before Him:

In Psalm 95: 1-6. the Bible says.

“O come let us sing unto the LORD; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods. In his hands are the deep places of the earth; the strength of the hills is his also. The sea is his and he made it; and his hands formed the dry land.O come let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD our maker.”

The Bible says we should come before the Lord, Yahweh, with a joyful noise, with thanksgiving, at times we kneel down or prostrate before Him in worship and adoration

When we want to fellowship with the Father it could be a noisy affair clapping, singing, praising Him. jumping and shouting. He loves this and that is what every father loves. When children come home on holidays, you know the noise, as we begin to see the children arrive one by one. We shout, we embrace, we jump

The School of Disciples. Year Seven

there is a lot of noise, joyful noise. This is how to fellowship with God the Father.

FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD THE SON

How do we fellowship with God the Son?

1. Be sure of Your Salvation:

In Psalm 116: 12-14, David said.

“What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me? I will take the cup of salvation and call upon the name of the LORD. I will pay vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people.”

You want to fellowship with God the Son, take the cup of Salvation, and make sure you pay your vows. In other words. he is saying, if you want to fellowship with God the Son, be sure of your salvation, because this is the most crucial thing as far as God the Son is concerned.

Remember His name is Jesus, which means Saviour. Before you fellowship with Him at all, settle the question of your salvation.

2. Pay Your Vows:

If you want to fellowship with God the Son, make sure you pay your vows

3. Call Upon His Names:

Jesus loves names. And when you call His names, the various

names that He has, you will find that He will enjoy fellowshipping with you.

You can call Him the Way, the Truth, the Life, the Good Shepherd, the Bread of Life, the Resurrection and the Life. the Alpha and the Omega, the Word of God, the Son of God, the Son of Man, the Light of the world, the Door, etc.

You will remember each time Jesus introduced Himself. He will introduce Himself by a new name. Each time He is introduced. It will be at least either with one new name or several in one verse of the Bible only. He was called Wonderful, Counsellor, Almighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 961

If you want to introduce one fellow and you call Him six names ma row, you will know that He love names. When you want to fellowship with Him, be sure of your salvation, call on His names and pay your vows.

4. Meditating On The Word:

Another way by which you can fellowship with Jesus is by studying and memorising the Word of God

Remember John 1: 1 which says. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with

God, and the Word was God.”

That is Jesus is the Word So when you bury yourself in the

Word of God, studying the Word, memorising the Word, you are fellowshipping with Jesus Christ.

And remember Joshua 1: 8, God advised Joshua. He said. if you want to prosper. If you want to have good success, meditate on the Word of God day and night. And if you read Psalm 1:1- 3. It tells you too how to be like a tree planted by the river side so that you will always be green. You will be prospering all the days of your life. He said it is by meditating in the Word of God day and night. In other words by fellowshipping with Jesus Christ, you will prosper mightily.

FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT

How do we fellowship with the Holy Spirit? By Communication:

All that the Holy Spirit wants is communication and conversation. When you want to fellowship with the Holy Spirit, you either sing in tongues or pray in tongues or speak in tongues. In 1 Corinthians 14: 18, Paul the apostle said.

“I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all.” In other words, Paul said he fellowships with the Holy Spirit more than anyone else And you know the results for Paul, he was able to perform special miracles that nobody else could do. But when you begin to sing in tongue, pray in tongues and as you grow, dance in the spirit and laugh and do things in the

spirit, you will begin to fellowship with the Holy Spirit, and mighty things wall begin to happen to your life and in your ministry

THE LINK BETWEEN FELLOWSHIPPING WITH GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON AND GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT

Is there any link between fellowshipping with God the Father, with God the Son and with the Holy Spirit? Yes there is

In John 4: 23-24, Jesus Christ said to the woman that He found at the well,

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship Him. God is a Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in truth”

According to John 16: 13-17 the Lüble says, if you want to fellowship with God the Father, you are going to involve the Holy Spirit because God is a Spirit and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth. If you want to fellowship with Jesus Christ. God the Son you have to involve the Holy Spirit because Jesus Christ said.

“the Holy Spirit shall glorify Me.”

As you begin to speak in tongues and you speak to the Father in the spirit, the Holy Spirit will be glorifying Jesus Christ

through the spirit. As we hear from God the Father and God the Son, we will be hearing through the Holy Spirit.

In other words, those who know how to sing in tongues, praye tongues, do everything in the spirit, can fellowship with the Father, glorifying the Son and fellowship with the Holy Spin all at the same time.

So we clap, we sing, we dance, we call the name of Jesus, pray in tongues, we memorise the Word of God, that s fellowshipping with God.

It will be a good idea if you can take five minutes and fellowship a little with the Fathen with the Son and with the Holy Spint You will be exalted yourself and you will bless the name of the Lord.

Go ahead and do that.

Sing, dance, clap and shout. Call the name of Jesus, speak in tongues and sing in tongues God bless you as you do so.

The Strength Of The Disciple. Part Two. RCCG SOD Year 2

We shall consider another source of disciples strength in this lesson. This comes from a quiet , restful trust in the Lord.

 

According to Isaiah 5,15-18, the Bible says:

“For each Egyptian shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this. Their strength is to sit still. “

“For thus said the Lord God, the Holy one of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved: In quietness and in confidence shall be your strength : and ye would not. But ye said no; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee.; and ,m we will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift. One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall ye flee; till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain. And therefore will the Lord wait, that ye may be gracious unto you and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you; for the Lord is a God of judgement ; blessed are all that wait for Him”.

 

In quietness shall your strength be. Running around will not produce same result as quietness and restful trust in the Lord. In Isaiah 40:28-30, the Bible says the young men will faint and utterly fail, but they that wait on the Lord will renew their strength. In Psalms 46:10, the Bible says,

 

“Be still , and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the hearten, I will be exalted in the earth”.

 

In Exodus 14:13-14, the Bible says,

“And Moses said unto the people, fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will shew to you today; for the Egyptians whom ye have seen today, ye shall see them no more for ever. The Lord shall fight for you , and ye shall hold your peace”.

 

God said to the Children of Israel, “Hold your peace”. so that they could see the works but He told them to march forward. If God says hold your peace or be still, He means that you should be still in your soul or your spirit. When you move about let your mind be at rest. Instead of running helther skelter where there is trouble God is saying to the disciple that in whatever trouble you are facing, let there be peace in your heart. 

 

In Psalms 125:1 , the Bible says “They that trust in the Lord shall be as Mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth forever”. If we can trust in the Lord, we will be like Mount Zion that cannot be moved. Put your trust in the Lord . Don’t worry what the enemy can do. You will not be moved. 

 

In Isaiah 26:4 : “Trust ye in the Lord forever, for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength”. When you trust in the Lord, it enables Him to reveal His everlasting strength. 

 

In Psalms 32:10 “Man sorrows shall be to the wicked; be he that trusted in the Lord, mercy shall compass him about”. When you rest in Him, it causes him to surround you with His Mercy”.

 

In Psalms 20: 7-8, “Some trust in chariots, and some in horse4s; but we will remember the name of the Lord our God. They are brought down and fallen, but we are risen, and stand upright”.

Those who trust in horses and chariots will fall, but those who trust in God shall stand.

 

In Psalms 27:2-3 David said, “…Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall rise against me, in this I will be confident”.

If a host should surround him and want to destroy him, he said they will fall and will never rise again, because he trusts in the Lord . In Psalms 112:7 , the Bible says if you trust in Lord or your heart is fixed in the Lord, you will never be afraid of evil report.

 

In Habakkuk 3:17-19 , the Bible says “Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines, the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The Lord is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds’ feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments”.

 

If you don’t lose your salvation, whatever happens will always land at your feet. Habakkuk said no matter what happens , he will always trust in the Lord.

 

In Isaiah 12:1-3 , the Bible says : In that day, you will say I will praise thy name.

 

When a disciple learns to trust the Lord, then there is nothing more to do than to be praising the Lord and rejoicing in Him. People have asked why I am peaceful irrespective of what I am facing. My answer have always been, because I trust in the Lord.

The Strength Of The Disciple. Part One. RCCG SOD Year 2

The strength of a disciple is derived from various sources:

 

#1 Joy

The first strength of a disciple is JOY. In Nehemiah 8:10 The Bible says: “The joy  of the Lord is your strength”.In Proverbs 17:22, the Bible says that: “A merry heart doeth good like medicine but a broken spirit dries up bones”

When bones are dried up, the blood becomes weakened. The life of a man is in the blood. For example, if you poison a rat, when it walks into the sitting room and you try to chase it, it wont be able to run anymore. The rat’s blood has changed to water. When you kill it, you see that its blood has become blackish. That is exactly what sorrow does to a man (Proverbs 15:13). Sorrow is a spirit breaker. 

This is why a disciple should always be joyful, so that he can remain strong. 

#3 Strength of the Lord

The strength of a disciple also comes from the STRENGTH OF THE LORD.

Ephesians 6:10 says “Finally my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might”. The disciple derives his strength from the Lord.

In Phil. 4:13, the Bible says,

“I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me”.

 

As a branch inn the vine of Christ, you have to be attached to Him because he is the one supplying food and water to the branch. This is why Jesus said in John 15:5. “Without me , you can do nothing”

If you detach yourself from Him, you are finished.

 

#3 The Power of his  might

The strength of the disciple is supplied from within because it flows from Jesus through to us and he is in us. (Eph.3:4-16).  The Almighty supplies strength to the inner man. For example, there was a woman who was able to lift the whole car which had an accident because a child of her was under the car. This is what love will make us do. The CHRIST IN US SUPPLIED THE STRENGHT . The might of God is His Spirit (Zech. 4:6).

 

Jesus told the disciples in Acts 1:8 “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you; ad ye shall be witness unto me both in Jerusalem, and in Judea, and in Samaria , and unto the uttermost part of the earth”. He also said through Jude verse 20 that we should build our most holy faith by praying in the Holy Ghost.

 

God performed special miracles, mighty signs and wonders through Paul because4 he prayed in tongues more than all (2 Cor. 14:18). You know about Samson in Judges 14:5-6 and Judges 15:14-15. Each time Samson did something mighty, that was when the Holy Spirit came on him. He was able to do incredible things. In Judges 16:20-21 , when the Holy Spirit left Him, He became an ordinary man. 

 

4. The Name of Jesus

The strength of the disciple also c0mes from the Name of  Jesus. (Phil. 2:9-10). The disciple had the authority to use the name.

#6 The word of God

The strength of the disciple also comes from the word of God because the word of God is forever settled. According to Isaiah 40:8, He says my word shalll stand forever. “The grass withereth , the flower fadeth; but the word of our God shall stand forever”.

 

#7 Mercy of God

One of the greatest sources of the strength of the disciple is the Mercy of God . The Bible says in Romans 9:16; “So then it is not of him that willeth , nor of h8im that runneth, but of God that showeth mercy”.

 

According to Lamentation 3:22-23, the Bible says” It is the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because its compassions fail not. They are new every mornings; great is thy faithfulness”. The mercy of the Lord is always there in the disciple. He renews it every morning. 

 

In Psalm 106:1 , the Bible says the mercy of the Lord endureth forever. Therefore , I will ask you as a disciple to pray for the mercy of God.

Praying According To His Will. RCCG SOD Year 2

Praying According To His Will. RCCG SOD Year 2

 

When you pray, do not blackmail God. Pray according to his will. If we pray according to His will, He will answer. His will is what is written in His word. Pray as it is written in the Bible. Always remind Him of his word. He will honour His word and answer.

 

“IT IS WRITTEN”, is the greatest proof producer in the court of heaven. Whenever you say it is written, that settles the matter in heaven. In Matt. 4:1-11, the Lord Jesus used the word of God, “it is written” constantly to defeat the devil.

HOW DO WE KNOW THE WILL OF GOD CONCERNING OUR LIVES

We need to know the Will of God for our lives so that we can pray accordingly. Searching the scriptures is the way by which we know the will of God. There are so many of them that are plainly and clearly written for us. For example,

  1. It is written that it shall be well with me. “Say ye to the Righteous, that it shall be well with him, for they shall eat the fruit of their labour” Isaiah 3:10. Therefore I know that it shall be well with me. As the righteousness of God in Christ, Jesus has made me righteous.
  2. In Phil. 4:13, it is written, “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me”. So I know that any goal I set, I can accomplish through Christ which strengthens me.
  3. In 1 Thess. 5:18; it is written; In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you”. The prayer of thanksgiving is the will of God nfor us as disciples. So when you want to pray, you can say “Father, you wish that I should give thanks in all things and I assume that by so doing my ultimate victory is assured in battle , even though the circumstances may not look so”.
  4. In Romans 8:28, it is written, And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God to them that are the called according to his purpose”. According to this scripture , irrespective of the circumstance, I know all will be well.
  5. in 2 Kings 6:15-17, the Bible says:

“And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth , behold , an host compassed the city both with horse and chariots. And his servant said unto him. Alas, my master ! How shall we do? And we answered , fear not: for they that be with us are more than they be with them. And Elisha prayed, and said , Lord , I pray thee open His eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the the eyes of the man; and he saw : and behold , the mountain was full of chariots of fire round about Elisha.

6. In 1 Thess. 4:3, it is written,

“For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication”.

Your sanctification is the will of God. Therefore , according to this scripture, you can pray for sanctification and victory over sin. 1 John 3:8, the Bible says, “He that commiteth sin is of the devil”.

7. In 3 John 2 , it is written, 

“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou may prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth”. It is God’s will that you should prosper and be in good health. If you cant see any progress in your life, businesses or academics , quote 3 John 2and then rebuke the devil. 

 

8. In 1 John 3:8, It is written, 

“He that commiteth sin is of the devil: for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil”. 

 

It is the will of God for you to destroy the works of the devil. You can pray for all necessary anointing and resources for the destruction of the works of the enemy.

 

Carry the battle to the gate of the enemy. 1 John 4:14 “And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world”.

When we pray according to His will, nothing will be able to hinder our miracle.

The Disciple’s Mode Of Prayer. Part Four. RCCG SOD Year Two

Worship as A Weapon Of Warfare (Part Two).

 

There are various names of the Lord. When you go before him in worship and call him these names whatever you want can happen. 

#1 Jehovah Tsidkenu

God our Righteousness (Jeremiah 23:5-6; 1 Cor. 1:30; 20, 1 Cor. 5:21).

 

When you call God Jehovah Tsidkenu, you are thanking him for your own salvation. You just remember how God set you free and desire to thank Him for saving you. You can also call this name when you are burdened about the salvation of loved ones yet to be saved. 

 

#2 Jehovah Nkadesh

This means the Lord that sanctifies (Leviticus 20:7-8). This is the name you call when you desperately want to live above sin always. When you see yourself rising and falling into sin after making resolutions that you will never sin again. 

 

#3 Jehovah Shalom

The Lord our Peace (John 6:23-24; Isaiah 53:3; Psalm 119:165; John 14:27; Phil. 4:4-7).When you call him Jehovah Shalom, you are call Him to still the storm in your life. You are calling Him to cause peace into a troubled situation and He will answer. You can also call Jehovah Shalom when you remember how He stilled a particular storm in your life, and you appreciate Him.

 

#4 Jehovah Shammah

The Lord who is ever present. (Ezekiel 48:35; Joshua 12:9; Mathew 28:18-20; Hebrew 134:5-6; Hebrew 4:16). We use this name in the time of danger; when we are seeking security. He will come and help; He is the ever present help in the time of trouble. You may call this name when you suddenly remember how he helped you in time past, ow you escaped death. You may want to thank Him for it and call him Jehovah Shammah.

 

#5 Jehovah Rapha 

The Lord that healeth, the Great Physician. (Exodus 15:26; Isaiah 53:5;1 Peter 2:24). This is the name you call when you need healing or while thanking Him for healing. The Lord my Doctor, my healer, my Great Physician.

 

#6 Jehovah Raah

The Lord my Shepherd (Psalm 23:1; Matt. 6:25-33; Phil. 4:19).

 

This is the name you call when He has met your needs or when you want Him to meet your needs. 

 

Romans 8:31-33 . This is the name you call when you want all your needs to be met or when he met all your needs and you need to bless Him for it.

The Disciple’s Mode Of Prayer. Part Three. RCCG SOD Year 2.

WORSHIP AS A WEAPON OF WARFARE (PART ONE).

 

There are two principal ways by which one can use worship as a weapon of warfare. 

 

  1. By calling the Lord’s name appropriately.
  2. By recalling what He has done fo0r you. 

Names are associated with meanings. God holds names as very important (Genesis 17:5-6; 15; 32:26-28). In Malachi 1:11, God honours His names and desires that His names be worshipped. 

 

#1 Jehovah Elshaddai

God that is more than enough , more than anything you can need; the Almighty (Genesis 17:1). Because of the power in that name, we must praise him until He comes. When the storm is contrary, when you face the impossible, He is always around to help. 

 

#2 Jehovah Jireh 

Genesis 22:14- The Lord that provides. You cant know Him by that name until you are in a tight situation. When you have to lift up  your head to the mountain of our God. – the mountain of no wanting, you cannot know more about the greatness of God, God is always nearer than we think. When you are in need of supernatural provision, look unto Jehovah Jireh. (Hebrew 2:10, Luke 10:17; 1 Corinthians 2:14; Philippians 4:13).

 

#3 Jehovah Nissi

God our banner- Exodus 17:16, It means God is our Champion; you cannot win a battle without a captain. When we give Jesus the right place in our lives, we are ready for battle, there are some hands today that God wants to  honour like in the days of Moses (Philippians 4:13). When you need victory in trouble , remember Him who is our champion and banner.

 

When we call God His right name. He will do whatever we ask of Him. God attaches importance to names. To show this, He changed the names of those He loved. For example , Abram was changed to Abraham, Sarai to Sarah, Jacob to Israel, Simeon to Peter etc.

The Disciple’s Mode Of Prayer. RCCG SOD Year 2

Worship As A Mode of Prayer

 

 

A Disciple can do either of two things. He can glorify his Master or betray Him. 

In John 15:26-27, the Bible says:

 

“But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the spirit of truth, who proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: And ye shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning”.

 

There are two of us who will be bearing witness concerning the Lord Jesus Christ; the Holy Spirit and those of us who are disciples. The Holy Spirit can cause miracles to happen as a result of which glory will be given to Christ.

 

In John 16:13-14, Jesus had already said “He (The Holy Spirit) will glorify me”. You cannot cause miracles to occur. But you can voice right. You are not a miracle worker.

 

But the Holy Spirit is. You can use your voice aright by giving testimonies about the one who is performing the miracles. 

 

In Acts 3, we see the story of a lame man by the gate called beautiful. This lame man was supernaturally healed. People began to look at Peter and John as if they were miracle workers. But Perter answered and said in Acts 3:12: Peter said:

 

“Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel , that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth , whom ye crucified , whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other. for there is non other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved”.

 

It was the Holy Spirit who performed the miracle and Peter used his mouth to glorify Jesus. The Holy Spirit can perform miracles that will bring glory to Jesus. 

You cannot perform miracle but, you can testify and tell anyone that Jesus is great; that anything can happen when they call His name. 

 

Glorifying the master, during worship , exposes how much of Him you know, how much of his names you know, what you do not know about His history, what do you know about His acts.

 

God and His Names

He has so many names and each name has a meaning, purpose4 and links Him to something. He has the following names:

 

  1. Jehovah El Shaddah – Genesis 17:1 
  2. Jehovah Tsidekenu- Jeremiah 23:6
  3. Jehovah Nissi- Exodus 17:16.
  4. Jehovah Nkadesh- Leviticus 20:7-9
  5. Jehovah Shalom – Judges 6:24
  6. Jehovah Shammah- Exodus 48:35
  7. Jehovah Raah – Psalms 23:1
  8. Jehovah Rapha -Exodus 15:26.
  9. Jehovah Jireh: Genesis 22:8-14
  10. The I AM THAT I AM- Exodus 3:14
  11. Jehoval Elohim  Ps. 99:5,8,9.
  12. Jehovah Sabaoth- 1 Samuel 1-3
  13. Jehovah Elyon- Psalm 47:2
  14. Jehovah Ropheka Exodus 15;26
  15. Jehovah Hosenu Psalm 95:6
  16. Jehovah Mekaddisakem Exodus 31:13
  17. Jehovah Eloheeka Exodus 20:2,5,7
  18. Jehovah Adonai-Genesis 15:2-3
  19. Jehovah Rohi Psalm 23:1
  20. Jehovah Elohim Genesis 22:8-14.

 

 

We know better; we disciples know that Jesus is worthy to be praised. We know His Power, according to Matthew 8:23-27 and Luke 24:19. We disciples , have known Him. We have seen Him raise the dead, cleanse the leper etc. Many of us have seen His glory, the disciple followed Him to the Mount of Transfiguration (Matthew 16:1-2). The disciples knows that he or she is not worthy to be called a disciple of somebody as great as Jesus Christ. In Luke 5:4-8, Peter said to the Lord, “Please depart from me. I am a sinful man, I cant be near somebody as great as you”.

 

For those of us who know that we qualified to he chief among the sinners and now we are numbered among the saints, why should we not praise the Lord and worship Him with tears in our eyes? In Colossians 1:12, the Bible says:

 

“Giving thanks unto the Father , which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints..”.

 

Our Master, whose disciples we are, has made us partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. We partakers should worship Him, even if it is only for that reason. 

 

The saints who are in heaven, who can never sin again, realize that they are unworthy to be in heaven and to have crowns to wear and they show it. Each time they want to worship God , they show that they are unworthy of what He has done for them. How much more are we , completely unworthy of the mercy and goodness of the Almighty ? In Revelation 4:9-11, the Bible says:

 

“And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne , saying , Thou art worthy , O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hath created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created”.

 

The disciple should worship God with all his heart, knowing that he is not even worthy to be called a saint or a disciple. It is only by the grace of our Leader that we are what we are today, 

 

Worship and thank Him for your salvation and for making you a saint.

LESSON INTRODUCTION:

In the days of Noah, the world was destroyed with water, but God has promised that He would no more destroy the world with a flood (Genesis 9:11). The end of the world, described in 2Peter 3:10 as the day of the Lord will occur after the final judgement by God (Revelation 20:7-10). This scripture reveals that the universe will be destroyed by fire. Therefore, believers should bear in mind that this present world will not last forever (Matthew 5:18).

LESSON AIM: To study the passing away of the present heaven and earth and the emergence of the new heaven and earth.

TEACHING OBJECTIVES: Through this lesson, students should be able to:

a. Understand the biblical truth about the passing away of the present heaven and the earth.

b. Understand also that there will be the emergence of a new heaven and earth.

TEACHING PLAN: To achieve the above-stated goals, the teacher:

a. Should explain to students that the existing world and heaven will pass away soon as indicated in the Bible.

b. Should also explain to the students that after the passage of the present heaven and the earth, there would be the emergence of a new earth and heaven.

c. Should explain the nature of the new heaven and earth and the requirements to live in the new heaven and earth.

d. The teacher should summarize, conclude, evaluate and give assignment to the students.

e. The teacher should allow the Assistant Teacher to conduct the class, take the closing prayer and mark the assignment while students should be allowed to make contributions and participate in class activities.

TEXT REVIEW: Revelation 21:1-5.

The Apostle John saw:

i. A new heaven and a new earth. Revelation 21:1.

ii. The first heaven and first earth had passed away. Revelation 21:1.

iii. A very beautiful holy city called the New Jerusalem. Revelation 21:2.

ACTIVITY: Mention any five things which Apostle John “HEARD” according to Revelation 21:3-4.

i. ————————————————————–
ii. —————————————————————
iii. ————————————————————-
iv. ————————————————————-
v. —————————————————————

LESSON OUTLINES:

  1. THE PASSING AWAY OF THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH
  2. EMERGENCE OF THE NEW HEAVEN AND THE NEW EARTH

1. THE PASSING AWAY OF THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH

i. The prophet Isaiah foretold the passing away of Heaven and Earth (Isaiah 34:4; 51:6).

ii. This refers to the physical Heaven and earth – the material world and all it contains – but not to the inhabitants of heaven and earth. To “pass away” is to disappear or be no more.

iii. The “heavens” in 2 Peter 3:10 refers to the physical universe – the stars, planets, and galaxies – which will be consumed by some kind of tremendous explosion, possibly a nuclear or atomic reaction that will consume and wipe out all matter as we know it.

iv. All the elements that make up the universe will be melted in the “fervent heat” (2 Peter 3:12).

v. This will also be a noisy event, described in different Bible versions as a “roar” (NIV), a “great noise” (KJV), a “loud noise” (CEV), and a “thunderous crash” (AMP). There will be no doubt as to what is happening.

vi. Everyone will see and hear it because we are also told that “the earth and everything in it will be laid bare.”

CLASS ACTIVITY 1: How should believers prepare for the day when the world and elements would melt in fire?

2. EMERGENCE OF THE NEW HEAVEN AND THE NEW EARTH

i. In Revelation 21:1, John writes of a new heaven and a new earth in the eternal state, having seen that “the first heaven and the first earth had passed away” (Isaiah 65:17; 2 Peter 3:13).

ii. God will create a “new heaven and a new earth” which will include the “New Jerusalem” (Revelation 21:2), the capital city of Heaven, a place of perfect holiness, which will come down from heaven to the new earth.

iii. This is the city where the saints – those whose names were written in the “Lamb’s book of life” (Revelation 13:8) – will live forever. Peter refers to this new creation as “the home of righteousness” (2 Peter 3:13).

PERSPECTIVE

Knowing that Heaven and earth will pass away gives us perspective in life.
i. This world is not our home. “We are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells” (2 Peter 3:13).

ii. Jesus tells us to have the proper priorities (Matthew 6:19-20).

iii. Also Peter, after reminding us of the temporary nature of this world, says, “Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.” (2 Peter 3:14).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2: The class members should identify common spots or stains which could tarnish a believer’s life of holiness.

CONCLUSION: Believers should remain faithful to the end because there is the hope of eternal life with God beyond this present world.

QUESTIONS:

  1. Describe how the present heavens and earth will pass away.
  2. Will there be a new heaven and a new earth? Explain.

EVALUATION: What do you understand by the new heaven and the new earth?

CLOSING PRAYER: Father, help me to always be pure and holy.

ASSIGNMENT: List five (5) things you must be doing now in preparation for the new heaven and the new earth. (2×5=10 Marks).

Dealing With Demons. Part 4. RCCG SOD Year 2

Deliverance for Willing Victims

Willing victims are victims who are cooperating with demons. How can we get such people free? You must know that the willing victims thinks the possession of demons is a source of power. They love things that are mysterious. You must realise that so you can be able to minister deliverance to them, and give the right counsel.

HOW TO EXECUTE DELIVERANCE

#1 Counselling

The first thing you need to do is to counsel them that all power belong to God. There is only one source of power, according to Psalm 62:11 which says , that, “once has God spoken but twice have i heard , that power belong to God”.

#2 Greater mysteries 

Convince them there are greater mysteries in the kingdom of God than they can ever find in the kingdom of darkness/devil.

In Matthew 13:11, the Bible talks about then mysteries of the Kingdom of God. 

 

#3 Heaven is a better place

Convince the victim that heaven is a better place to be than hell. Show them Matthew 25:24-41 . Let them know that those who are cooperating with Demons will go to hell and that those who will get rid of  them will go to heaven. 

 

#4 Convince them

Convince them that peace is superior to power any day Isaiah 48:22 ; John 14:26 and also Romans 4:17. 

 

#5 Joy of ignorange 

Let them know that the joy of ignorance is superior to the sorrow of mysterious knowledge. Read to them Ecl. 1:18; 12:12.

 

” For much wisdom is much grief; and he that inceeaseyh knowledge increaseth sorrow..”. 

 

The more you increase in knowledge, the more you increase in sorrow. Many join the secret societies and occults. Let them know that judgement will come one day. Nobody can escape it. If you become an agent of the devil, if you allow yourself to be used by the devil according to Ecl. 12:13-14 , judgement will come.

 

Let them know that all secrets will be exposed one day. Sooner or later all secrets will leak , whether committed in the dark or in the light , or even behind closed doors (Mathew 10:26; Acts 8:9-11; 18:23). 

 

If you succeed in convincing the victim and he says that now he is ready for Deliverance , you can go ahead with the procedures you have already learned. 

 

Deliverance for the unwilling victim 

Unwilling victims were deceived into oppression. It is easy to recognize them. They are always sad because they don’t like what is happening to them.

 

They are easier to be set free because they are not cooperating with the enemy. They always follow anointed men round because they are looking for help. Even though they will still be assisted, but it the anointed men is observant , he will soon notice that whenever he goes to minister, this fellow is always there in the crowd , looking with sadness in his face as if he saying ” Please help me. I am in trouble”. 

 

There is a good example, it is found in Acts 16:16-18.  The girl with the spirit of divination. She didn’t like it but her master was making money out of her. As soon as she discovered that Paul and Silas were men Of God, she started following them, shouting to get their attention, saying ” These are men of God teaching us the way of salvation. 

 

This continues until Paul has to say ” Okay, Demon , get out of her”. The demon left , the girl became free and was happy, but the masters were angry.

 

How to set them free 

For there to be true Deliverance, there is a great need for the gift of discerning of spirits, because there are some willing victims of religious demons. Such fellows would be found in every crusade ground and program. They are there to cause trouble, not for Deliverance. 

 

There can also be the unwilling victim who is looking for Deliverance and follows anointed men of God about, because he needs Deliverance.

 

Therefore , there is a need for the man of God to have the gift of discerning of spirits. But when the victim is genuinely unwilling one, Deliverance for such is easy. You just follow the patterns that have been discussed. 

 

If you have anyone you know who is in need of Deliverance, whether a willing or unwilling victim , you can begin to  intercede for such, so that the next time you see the fellow you can pray , and deliverance can come to the fellow immediately.

Demon Possession. RCCG SOD Year Two.

When we talk about demon possession , there are two categories of victims :

#1 Willing victim

These are victims that cooperate with the demons. They cooperate with Demons zealously and they are happy about it.

#2 Unwilling victims

These are the victims whom the enemy compel to cooperate.

There are two categories of possessive demons.

  1. Those who are outright antichrist. They hate Christ and they don’t hide it at all.
  2. The other category is a little bit more discrete. They are called religious demons; in other words, you can even find them in churches.

#1 OUTRIGHT ANTICHRIST

This can be recognized in three major ways.

a. Direct attack

These demon tens to attack anything that has to do with the gospel (1 John 2:22).

Any demon that says that there is no God the father and God the son is an antichrist. I am sure you know a religion that says ” God has no son, neither was He born”. You can easily discern which kind of demon is controlling that religion. That is why they are all out to be against anything that has to do with the Lord Jesus Christ. They cant tolerate anything that has to do with the Lord Jesus Christ. Examples are found in Mark 1:23-24 and Mark 5:1-7. Jesus was coming to the temple and this possessed fellow said to Him: ” What do you want ? What have we to do with you .” This is a direct attack.

 

B. Indirect Attack 

There is also the indirect Attack method. ” these demon talk about Jesus condescendingly. They say he is a good Teacher, a prophet , but not the son of God, not is He God. Some even try to preach the ” Gospel of love”. They talk about the brotherhood of man, the fatherhood of God, they say God is the Father of all, that there is no hell, no judgement , that God can’t send His own children to Hell. 

 

You must be aware of them and do not listen to them. 2 Corinthians 11:3 ; Eph. 6:11. 

 

#2 Religious demons 

How can we discern them ? Very difficult to know; 

A. They can perform miracles. In Ephesians 6, the Bible talks about their lying wonders. They are magicians (2 Timothy 2:7-9). How do they perform lying wonders. They put a sickness on a person for example, and they help to remove it, only to replace it with another. For instance , where a sick person has a problem, the witch doctor will say there is no need to worry . He will tell them what to bring and they bring it. He then give them something which apparently cures the problem they came with, but at the same time introduced something worse in the victim so that he can keep coming back. 

 

B. They have a form of godliness. The Bible even says according to 2 Timothy 3:5 that they begin to talk about strict morals and generosity. But when you talk about the blood of Jesus , they don’t want to hear. 

c. They compound doctrines, as we know that the devil has its own doctrines. (1 Timothy 4:1; Titus 2:7). That will indirectly corrupt people. 

 

d. They keep on substituting anything it anyone for Christ. For example, For example, the Virgin Mary, or saying the God of so so and so, that is, Babalola, Oshoffa , Mosee Orimolade etc. 

 

They can tolerate anything except the blood of Jesus because they know that the devil was overcome by it according to Revelation 2:11. 

 

How do we bring these demons into manifestation 

a. The antichrist demon cannot stand the presence of Jesus. So if you want to bring them into manifestation , begin to worship God, worship Jesus and praise him. Begin to song about the blood of Jesus and tell of his Power. As soon as you begin to worship: Jesus will come down and this will cause the demon to manifest. 

 

The religious demons can even begin to sing the choruses with you, in fact , they will sing the loudest . But when the anointing of the Holy Spirit is present, they will surface . Why not worship God fervently? You can never tell, there might be a demon in the person beside you. Worship so that the bound can be set free.

Dealing with Demons Part Three. How To Conduct Deliverance. Year Two

The devil’s sole aim is to hinder your progress and he does this in three ways :

 

 

  1. By holding you down. That is , by oppression, depression and regression.
  2. By getting you to go round in circles- obsession, that is , doing only one thing continuously, for example , eating all the time.
  3. To get you to go in the direction opposite the way you should go. This is called possession .

Deliverance of the oppressed should follow three major steps:

a. locate the cause of the problem.

b. Counsel the fellow on how to remain free.

#1 Locate the Cause

Find the door opener to the devil. it could be a curse or there might be need for restitution somewhere. The cause might also be unforgivenss or maybe the person had been jilted. A door may also be because someone’s joy is tied to another’s sorrow. For example, taking another man’s wife or being dubious, robbing God , failure to pay tithes and constant disobedience to God’s voice.

 

Locating the door way of the enemy makes Deliverance easier. This is because it exposes the route through which the enemy comes in. It reveals the agent of destruction. It also aids counseling on how to avoid counter attack.

#2 Execute Deliverance 

Qualifications for executing Deliverance 

The one who is going to execute Deliverance must be qualified to do so. Otherwise , he will be in problem. to execire Deliverance , you must: 

1. Be born again. 

2. Spirit filled.

3. must be clean, that is must not be possessed of demon because demon cannot cast out demon. John 14:30. 

4. You must not have harmful habits like.smoking a d drinking alcohol.

5. You must not be a debtor.

6. You must not be somebody who exagerates.

 

The oppressed to be set free:

1. Must be made to realize and appreciate Deliverance. 

2. Must be cooperative i.e must be willing and ready to accept Jesus as his Savior. 

The process of Deliverance 

Ten basic steps are involved in carrying out Deliverance. 

1. Plead the blood of Jesus first of all over yourself .

2. Plead the blood of Jesus over all children present.

3. Plead the blood of Jesus over the oppressed. 

4. Take authority over the oppressors based on the Bible, because the Bible says so..

5. Bind the oppressors after taking authority. 

6. Loose the hold of the oppressors.

7. Command the oppressors to cease in their operation and to desist from their maneuvers and get out of the oppressed. 

8. Declare the oppressed free in Jesus name. If you believe, you can speak to theountains to be lifted into the sea. Demons can be mountains ( Mark 11:23; Matthew 18:18).

9. By faith , believe that it is done. Mark 11:24. Tell the oppressed that he is free and that he should begin to praise God as a sign of receiving Deliverance. 

10. Give all glory to Jesus. Thank the One who executed the Deliverance. (Acts 3:12). You are not the deliverer but Jesus. 

 

The following prayer of Deliverance can be prayed: 

“Father, I am pleading the blood of the lamb over myself, over all those who are present and over the oppressed. let the blood that conquered Satan cover all of us. 

 

Lord in the name of Jesus. I take authority over all the evil forces operating in the life of this fellow and I decree that they will lose this fellow and let him go. And I decree that they will cease in all their manoeuvres an cease in all their operations in the life of this fellow. And I command that they come out in the mighty name of Jesus. 

 

COUNSEL THE DELIVERED ON HOW TO REMAIN FREE 

#1 Close the door

Tell him or her to close the door through which the enemy entered. For example , if the demons have ruined his business due to unfaithfulness on paying tithes, he must begin to pay his tithes. 

 

#2 Remain in the light 

Advise the person to remain in the light, that is Jesus Christ, because of he goes back into darkness , the enemy will be waiting for him.

#3 Feed on the Word 

Advise the fellow to fill himself with the word of God all the time because in Matthew 12:34-25, the Bible says:

 

“When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places , seeking rest, and found none. Then he saith, I will  return into the house from whence I come out, and when he is come, he findeth it empty , swept, and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself , and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation. “

 

This fellow must fill himself with the word of God so that if the spirit tries , he will be answered with , ” it is written…” 

#4 Blood of the Lamb

Tell the person to cover himself/herself with the Blood of the Lamb constantly. 

#5 Fellowship with the Holy Spirit 

Tell the fellow to fellowship on a Holy Spirit filled assembly. The Bible says in 2 Cor. 3:17 :

 

” Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.”.

 

Is is dangerous for the delivered to remain in a cold traditional church. 

 

#6 Seek Baptism 

The person should seek Baptism of the Holy Spirit immediately because there cannot be two captains in the same boat. If he is full of the Holy Spirit , the demon will not find him empty if it attempts to return. 

 

#7 Resist the devil 

Teach the fellow to resist the devil constantly. The devil will try to come back but it is his duty to resist him

 

#8 Witness Aggressively 

Teach the fellow to witness aggressively because attack is the best form of defence. He must keep testifying of what God has done for him because the Bible says in Revelation 12:11 ” And they overcome him by the blood of the Lamb , and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto death”. 

 

#9 Pray without ceasing 

Tell the person to learn to pray without ceasing. Each time you pray, you are calling on the allied to come and help you. 

#10 Thanking God 

Tell the fellow never to stop thanking God for the Deliverance at every opportunity. The more you praise God for what he done, the more he will do. 

 

11. Testifying 

He must testify and let others know how God set him free at every opportunity he has. 

 

#12 Bring others 

Tell the fellow to bring others who need Deliverance to Christ for Deliverance. 

 

What are the signs of Deliverance 

1. The one who was depressed and held down will begin to rise, to improve , to grow spiritually and to move forward. 

2. The one obsessed and going round in circles , who does only one thing in exclusion of others will receive freedom to do other things. 

3. The one possessed who is going in the wrong direction will come to his senses. He will wake up and become normal again. 

 

There might be some people in this gathering right now who need Deliverance . just signify to your leader or teacher and say “I need Deliverance” . I am sure the leader will help you to pray the prayer of Deliverance. 

 

For those of you who did not need Deliverance, rejoice that the Lord God Almighty has set you free.

#1 UNDERSTANDING THE GREAT TRIBULATION

i. The Great Tribulation is also called the time of Jacob’s (the nation-Israel) trouble (Jeremiah 30:7).

v. The seventy weeks have three sections: the first seven weeks, the next sixty-two weeks, and the last week.

vi. There are seven days in one week. A day in the week represents one year. So the duration is seven years (Daniel 9:20-27).
