Memory Verse: “For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he is taken out of the way“-2 Thess. 2:7.
Bible Passage: 2 Thess. 2:1-12.
Introduction
Mystery simply means something that baffles understanding and cannot be explained. It takes its root from the Latin word “mysterium” and the ancient Greek word “mysterion” meaning a secret or secret rite. Iniquity from its root ‘anomia” (in Greek) means illegality i.e violation of law or wickedness, transgression of the law, unrighteousness or lawlessness. Therefore, the mystery of iniquity is a system of lawlessness for which believers are warned and expected to be on guard.
OUTLINES
THE MYSTERY OF INIQUITY EXPLAINED
the mystery of iniquity is the working of lawlessness in the world, leading to a worldwide rebellion against God (Matt. 24:12; 2 Timothy 3:1-4). It is all about controlling people, systems, finance etc. (Genesis 11:4). It is an interwoven series of complex systems that have slipped into politics, entertainment, sports, education, religion, media etc. (Romans 1:21-22). It is also revealed through the spirit of seduction, and doctrines of the devils (2 Timothy 3:13; 1 Timothy 4;1). It showcases sinful behaviours and diabolic practices in human beings (Acts 8:22-23; Matt. 23:28).
Iniquity relates more to the inner character (Mark 7:21-23) and points to an intentional desire to twist God’s holy standard (Jude 4). It drives human beings to twist God’s word (Titus 1:11). It will one day culminate in the appearance of the Antichrist, whose spirit is already at work in the world but is being restrained for now so that the world is not as evil as it could be (2 Thess. 2:7-8; 1 John 4:3).
BELIEVERS MUST BE ON THE WATCH
With the spirit of lawlessness everywhere in the world, believers must:
1. Search, read and guard their heart diligently and always (Joel 2;13; Prov. 4:23).
2. Confess any known sin. (1 John 1:9) and repent receiving forgiveness from the Lord (Acts 3;19).
3. Do Not conform to this world’s system (Romans 12:2) and be diligent to keep God’s commandment (Deut. 11:22).
4. Watch and pray (Matt. 26:41) and ask for a new heart (Psalms 51:10).
5. Put on the new man (Col. 3;10) and be constantly renewed by the Holy Ghost (Titus 3:5).
6. Depart from iniquity (2 Timothy 2;19) and remove the old yeast of sin (1 Cor. 5:17).
7. Purge themselves (2 Tim. 2:21) and let their garments be spotless (Eccl. 9:8).
CONCLUSION: Believers must know that the spirit of lawlessness is already operating in tyher world presently and they must ensure that they keep the profession of their faith to the end.

If you have always dreamed of owning your own business, then you may be interested in opening your own franchise. A franchise offers the benefits of running your own business, such as earning income and being your own boss, without the risk that comes with being an entrepreneur by yourself.
By opening a franchise rather than starting your own business from scratch, you can greatly reduce the initial investment that you need to start earning money as an entrepreneur, while also maintaining some control over how your company runs.
This article will go into detail about how to open a franchise successfully as an entrepreneur.
#1 Understand Your Why
Starting a franchise can be challenging but it’s not impossible. It all starts with understanding your why. Why are you doing this? Why is this the best option for you?
This will help you make sure that you’re setting yourself up for success from the very beginning. You want to make sure that they align with your needs and wants so you aren’t wasting time or money.
When looking at franchises available, ask the following questions: How much experience does the franchisor have? What kind of training do they offer? Is there financial assistance available if needed?
How long has the company been in operation? Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is!
#2 Do Your Research
Before you even consider opening your own franchise, do your research! There are many franchise opportunities available and it is important that you pick the right one for your needs.
If you’re not sure where to start, ask friends or family members what franchises they know about or go online and search for potential franchises using keywords like best pizza chains or fast food restaurants.
Once you have found some information on different franchises, be sure to talk with someone from the company who can answer any of your questions.
#3 Get Expert Help
The best way to open a franchise successfully is by getting expert help and advice. Doing so can save you time, money, and stress. Here are some tips for finding the right franchise consultant:
Contact your local Chamber of Commerce or business alliance Look on LinkedIn for people with skills in franchising.
Check with the Better Business Bureau to make sure the person you are considering working with has no complaints filed against them.
#4 Consider The Costs
Opening a franchise can be expensive. You’ll need to pay for the franchise itself, any signage, and other initial costs. If you’re opening a restaurant, you’ll have to invest in kitchen equipment and furniture, which will cost tens of thousands of dollars.
Maintenance is also an ongoing expense: if you don’t keep up with repairs and cleaning, your store’s value will decrease dramatically.
#5 Have a Solid Business Plan
If you want your franchise to succeed, you need a solid business plan. A good business plan includes how much money will be needed for starting the franchise, and how much it will cost for running it each year. It also includes financial projections and marketing plans.
All of these pieces work together in order to create a successful franchise. When you have this all figured out, then your startup costs are calculated with detailed data on operating expenses, revenue forecasts and cash flow expectations.
#6 Choose The Right Location
Location is important for any business, but it’s especially important for franchises. Franchises are designed to be scalable, so you’ll need to be able to open multiple locations if your business takes off.
If you have the opportunity, choose a location that has high foot traffic and plenty of parking spots nearby. The more visible your storefront is, the better.
#7 Promote Your Franchise
Promotion is a key component of any business. A franchisee needs to promote their brand not only during the initial stages but also afterwards. This will help build up your customer base and keep them coming back.
Additionally, you should be doing research on your competition and marketing accordingly so that your customers know why they should choose you over the others.
#8 Hire The Right People
Hiring the right people is often the most difficult, but most important aspect of a business. When you hire someone, they become your business partner and will be responsible for running your franchise.
The first step in opening your franchise is evaluating the opportunity. A lot of people don’t understand that franchising can be a very lucrative and successful opportunity, but it’s not for everyone.
Evaluating whether or not you have what it takes to start a franchise business is the first step in making sure you’re going into this with your eyes open.
Once you’ve determined that this is something that interests you, it’s time to move onto the next step: research.

There are few things more stressful than going into the testing room and not knowing what to expect. With the different types of tests out there, you never really know what to expect until you’re in it.
However, there are some generally accepted guidelines that you can follow to make your experience as painless as possible and to ensure you get the results you deserve! Here are some tips on how to prepare for any type of test you may be taking in the future!
Test Anxiety
Exam season is near, which can be both exciting and terrifying. With so much on the line, it’s easy to get a little freaked out. It’s normal! But don’t worry, there are some things you can do ahead of time that will help minimize your anxiety.
One way to stay calm before an exam is by doing deep breathing exercises. Breathe in through your nose for five seconds, hold for five seconds, then exhale through your mouth for five seconds. Try repeating this 10 times before taking a test – it will help lower the levels of stress hormones in your body like cortisol and adrenaline.
The Types of Test Answers
There are two types of test answers, right and wrong. The right answer is the one that’s correct. The wrong answer is the one that’s incorrect. It can be tempting to guess when you’re stuck on a question, but don’t do it! If you’re not sure what the right answer is, it’s better to leave an answer blank rather than guessing randomly.
A little bit of prep goes a long way; give yourself enough time so that you can focus on answering questions correctly instead of worrying about how much time is left in the exam.
How to Prepare for Each Type of Test Answer – Know your subject inside and out. – Keep an eye on the time. – Answer what you know; don’t get tricked into answering something that you are not sure of. – Don’t panic if you can’t answer a question, just skip it for now. – Read each question carefully before answering it.
It is important to read all of the words in each sentence and understand them completely before selecting an answer. If there is a word that you do not understand or need more information about, put down your pencil and go back over those words or sentences until you fully comprehend them.
Tips for Answering Multiple Choice Questions
1) Read the question carefully. 2) Eliminate answers that you know are incorrect. 3) Consider the remaining answers and choose the one that best fits what you read or heard. 4) If none of the answer choices seem to fit, choose C for None of the Above. 5) Use a process of elimination by considering which answer choice best fits with the information given in the passage.
Tips for Answering Short Answer Questions
Short answer questions may seem easy at first, but don’t be fooled. They are often the most difficult because you have limited time to think of an answer, plus you have to word it in a way that makes sense. Here’s some advice for answering short answer questions on tests: – Read the question carefully so you know what is expected of you. – Write out your answer even if it doesn’t make sense yet so you can brainstorm ideas without being rushed.
If you’re not sure what the right answer is, write down all of your thoughts as they come to mind. Don’t worry about spelling or sentence structure; just get everything down on paper and then go back later to edit as necessary.
Tips for Answering Essay Questions
In an essay question, you are expected to write a full answer to the question.
– The first thing you should do is read the question carefully. – Next, summarize what it is asking for in your own words. You might want to think about how you would respond if someone asked you the same question. – Then, take some time brainstorming ideas before writing down your thoughts on paper. – Finally, make sure that everything you write supports your thesis statement or argument and does not contradict anything else that has been said in the essay. To sum up, here are four tips for answering essay questions:
1) Read the question carefully 2) Summarize what it is asking for in your own words 3) Take some time to brainstorm 4) Make sure everything you write supports your thesis statement or argument and does not contradict anything else that has been said.
A good way to remember these four tips is RDSA – Read; Summarize; Take Time; Be Honest.

Knowing when to leave your job can be tough when you love the work you do. This can be especially true if you’re working for a well-known or popular company, or if you’ve been at your job for quite some time. However, the longer you stay in one place, the harder it becomes to relocate your career later on down the line. It’s important to recognize signs that it may be time to resign from your job as a designer in order to pursue new opportunities before they pass by.
Do Include a Thank You
It’s very important to be polite enough. Here are examples below:
– Thank you for the opportunity to work with your company. I have enjoyed my time working with your team and am grateful that I had the chance to work with you on this project. – I wish you all the best in your future endeavors, and thank you again for the opportunity to work with you. It has been a pleasure to be a part of such an excellent company. – I would like to extend my gratitude for the invaluable experience and knowledge I gained from working with you here at ABC Company Ltd., as well as for allowing me to take on some challenges which allowed me develop skills in different areas of graphic design. Thank you very much once again!
Do Keep it Short and Sweet
A resignation letter is a thoughtful gesture that will impress your employer, and make the process of leaving less painful.
The following are some dos and don’ts when drafting a letter: – Do thank your employer for their time – Don’t include any negative statements about the company or boss – Do have someone else proofread it before submitting – Don’t forget to save a copy of the letter on your computer, in case you need it down the line
Do Offer to Help With The Transition
It is never easy to leave a position, but it can be especially hard when the company you are leaving doesn’t see any value in your work. One of the best things you can do is offer to help with the transition by providing training or other assistance.
You may also want to offer to work from home until they find a replacement. As long as it’s not against policy and you don’t put yourself at risk, try to provide as much support as possible during this difficult time.
Don’t let personal feelings seep into your resignation letter: A good resignation letter should always convey appreciation for the time spent at that company. It is important to write a letter that will reflect positively on both parties; if you don’t then there could be potential lawsuits down the line.
Don’t burn any bridges
– Always be professional. It may not seem like a big deal now, but what you say or do may come back to haunt you in the future. – Don’t make it all about you. Try to show appreciation for the company that helped you get where you are, even if it didn’t work out. – Don’t burn any bridges. If a co-worker was your friend, take the time to email them with your heartfelt goodbye so they know how much they meant to you.
Also, don’t forget to thank the boss for everything he or she did for you. When you start sending out these letters, it can feel very final; however, there’s always hope that something will change down the line and you’ll end up returning to your old job!
Don’t get too personal
A resignation letter is usually a formal document that is submitted to an employer when one decides to resign from the company. There are no strict guidelines on how to write a resignation letter, so it is best to keep it concise.
Try not to get too personal in the letter because you never know who will end up reading it.
#1 Do address your reason for leaving
Why did you decide to leave? What made you want to leave? How did this decision come about? Were there any specific reasons you decided to take this course of action? Is there anything we can do to change your mind or make the transition easier for you? Please let me know if I can be of any assistance with the process.
#2 Do mention if you’re looking for other work or if they should contact you with new opportunities
I am currently exploring new career opportunities and welcome contact from recruiters concerning positions that might interest me.
Don’t Forget to Update Your Contact Information It’s important to update your contact information in the letter so that any potential clients who come across it will be able to get in touch with you. Make sure to include your new email address, phone number, and social media accounts if you have them.

In addition, it is important for Christians to be “card carrying” members of any political party of preference . By so doing, Christians can contest and be voted into elective positions or influence the choice of their representatives for elective positions (Ex. 18:21).

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE: Leaders should remind members that the baptism of the Holy Spirit comes with evidence.
MEMORY VERSE: “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” – Acts 1:8
BIBLE TEXT: Acts 5:12-16 (KJV)
12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.
13 And of the rest, no man join himself to them, but the people magnified them.
14 And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both men and women.)
15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
16 There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.
LESSON INTRODUCTION: By manifestation, we refer to the ways the Holy Spirit moves, shows, displays distinctly beyond question and works in and with believers to produce visible signs and results that glorify God.

MEMORY VERSE: “A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.” – Proverbs 13:22 BIBLE PASSAGE: Jeremiah 35:2-11KJV
2 Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and speak unto them, and bring them into the house of the LORD, into one of the chambers, and give them wine to drink. 3 Than I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habaziniah, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites; 4 And I brought them into the house of the LORD, into the chamber of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, a man of God, which was by the chamber of the princes, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door: 5 And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites pots full of wine, and cups and I said unto them, Drink ye wine. 6 But they said, We will drink no wine: for Jonadab the son of Rechab our father commanded us, saying, Ye shall drink no wine, neither ye, nor your sons forever: 7 Neither shall ye build a house, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyard, nor have any: but all your days ye shall dwell in tents; that ye may live many days in the land where ye be strangers. 8 Thus have we obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab our father in all that he hath charged us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, nor our daughters; 9 Nor to build houses for us to dwell in: neither have we vineyard, nor field, nor seed: 10 But we have dwelt in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us. 11 But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, Come, and let us go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians: so we dwell at Jerusalem.
INTRODUCTION
A legacy is defined as what we leave behind, to family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, and communities. This includes material possessions, our history, belief systems, and values (if adopted), business practices, name, reputation, and teaching (if useful). It could also be defined as money or property bequeathed to another by will or something handed down from an ancestor or a predecessor or from the past. Legacies are rare and special gifts, from one person to another, from one generation to the next.
As Christians, we should seek to leave a lasting legacy of godliness for those who come behind us. The fact is, most of what we do will not last; things we cherish will ultimately perish with the using” (Colossians 2:22). Unless we think seriously about the kind of legacy we are developing, it is likely we will leave nothing worth inheriting.
LESSON OUTLINE:
HOW TO LEAVE A LASTING LEGACY
BENEFITS AND CHARACTERISTICS OF A GODLY LEGACY
1. HOW TO LEAVE A LASTING LEGACY
Passing on to the next generations a legacy with eternal value is far more important than a temporal inheritance of money and property. The single most important legacy you can leave to the next generation is serving the Lord and thereby affecting their generation and thereafter. And the quality of your life in Christ will be one of the major influences upon them. Believers can leave legacies of life skills and faith examples to their children (Proverbs 1:8,9). Christian leaders can also leave positive legacies in the lives of others. You can leave an enduring legacy in many ways:
Set up examples of character traits your children should develop. Be consistent with rules and consequences. 1 Timothy 4:12.
Make sure your own choices reflect the teaching of Jesus and the legacy you hope to create. Job 36:10.
Building your life and those whom you influence upon the eternal word or God. Proverbs 30:3-5.
Encourage and inspire them. Hebrews 10:24-25.
Freely give and receive grace and forgiveness. Colossians 3:13.
Touching the lives of those younger, even much younger, than you with the wisdom the years have given you. Target some young people. Hebrews 13:16.
Love your local church, and do everything in your power to make it a beacon of truth and blessing to your community.
Maintaining godly character and conduct. Proverbs 22:1.
Give out of your time and be available to them.
2. BENEFITS AND CHARACTERISTICS OF A GODLY LEGACY
The following are some of the benefits of leaving a lasting legacy
It impacts the next generation.
Great visions and passion not to die off. 3 A way of providing for the next generation.
Developing next generation of leaders.
Having a legacy will make you a better leader. It will exert a positive impact on the way you plan and lead and how you communicate and the values you hold.
The characteristics of a godly legacy include:
A positive legacy must be developed. It does not just happen.
Must be worth inheriting.
Legacy is not about celebrating your life or achievements, but maximising the influence you can have in the lives of others so that you know your work for God is not in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:58.
Legacy is not about titles or positions (these do not “make” the leader), but credibility, influence, positive role modelling, passion and integrity.
Legacy is about others “buying into” our beliefs and values and following them when we are not around because what we leave behind has true worth.
Pass on the best of yourself to those you lead. Set an example.
CONCLUSION: Many leaders assume legacy is something they need to think about later in life. Others do not leave a legacy at all ((those who follow are left to pick up the pieces), or their work and vision quickly dissipate and they are quickly forgotten. Good legacy building starts now. Make your life count. Do it now.
QUESTIONS:
How can believers leave a lasting legacy for generations after them?
Mention the benefits of having a good legacy.

MEMORY VERSE: “Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” – Hebrews 13:4
BIBLE PASSAGE: Proverbs 7:6-27 KJV Pro 7:6 One day I was looking out my window Pro 7:7 at some foolish teenagers and noticed one who had no sense at all. Pro 7:8 He was walking through the marketplace and came to the corner where a certain woman lived. He then turned up the road that goes by her house. Pro 7:9 The day was ending. The sun had set, and it was almost dark. Pro 7:10 Suddenly, there she was in front of him, dressed like a prostitute. She had plans for him. Pro 7:11 She was a wild and rebellious woman who would not stay at home. Pro 7:12 She walked the streets, always looking for someone to trap. Pro 7:13 She grabbed the young man and kissed him. Without shame, she looked him in the eye and said, Pro 7:14 “I offered a fellowship offering today. I gave what I promised to give, Pro 7:15 and I still have plenty of food left. So I came out to find you, and here you are! Pro 7:16 I have clean sheets on my bed—special ones from Egypt. Pro 7:17 My bed smells wonderful with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. Pro 7:18 Come, let’s enjoy ourselves all night. We can make love until dawn. Pro 7:19 My husband has gone on a business trip. Pro 7:20 He took enough money for a long trip and won’t be home for two weeks.” Pro 7:21 This is what the woman said to tempt the young man, and her smooth words tricked him. Pro 7:22 He followed her, like a bull being led to the slaughter. He was like a deer walking into a trap, Pro 7:23 where a hunter waits to shoot an arrow through its heart. The boy was like a bird flying into a net, never seeing the danger he was in. Pro 7:24 Now, sons, listen to me. Pay attention to what I say. Pro 7:25 Don’t let your heart lead you to an evil woman like that. Don’t go where she wants to lead you. Pro 7:26 She has brought down some of the most powerful men; she has left many dead bodies in her path. Pro 7:27 Her house is the place of death. The road to it leads straight to the grave.
INTRODUCTION
In Christian marriage, every man must cleave to his own wife, and every wife cleaves to her own husband (Genesis 2:24), The Bible commends chaste matrimony in all sorts of men, and threatens utter destruction from God against whoremongers and adulterers (Hebrews 13:4). OUTLINES:
Meaning And Causes Of Marital Unfaithfulness
Effects Of Marital Unfaithfulness And The Way Out
1. MEANING AND CAUSES OF MARITAL UNFAITHFULNESS Marital unfaithfulness talks about the inability of either or both of the partners in marriage to adhere to the vows and contract of marriage as stipulated by God. To be unfaithful is to lose the sense of commitment and dedication to one’s partner in all ramifications of it. Here are some of the likely causes of marital unfaithfulness: Failure to provide for the basic needs of the partner/home (1 1imothy 5:8); Infidelity – lack of belief in the position of the Word of God (Titus 1:17); Lack of contentment (1 Timothy 6:6); Bad company (1 Corinthians 15:33) and Lack of self-control (1 Corinthians 7:5; Titus 2:4,6).
#2 EFFECTS OF MARITAL UNFAITHFULNESS AND THE WAY OUT
Marital unfaithfulness leads to a lack of trust and insincerity among couples. It can result in hatred and bitterness (Proverbs 15:17). Due to the injection of strange blood through strange men or women, strange diseases may also be injected into the marriage system (Proverbs 6:20; 23:27). It brings about disunity which may lead to separation and eventually divorce (Matthew 19:1-9). Children in such homes learn corrupt and immoral acts and may grow up to become like their parents. It breaks down law and order and drives away peace from such homes (Proverbs 14:1, Jeremiah 6:14).
Hence, married couples must learn to mutually satisfy each other, be contented and appreciate each other throughout their lifetime (Proverbs 5:15-20). They must take the time to learn the love-making and the sexual need of each other. Love and mutual trust must not be compromised. Ultimately, the fear of God must rule and guide the heart of married couples (Ephesians 5:21; Proverbs 8:13: 2 Timothy 2:19).
CONCLUSION
If you are unfaithful in your marriage, be warned, that the wrath of God is imminent. Your marriage must remain honourable in all things. QUESTIONS

FURTHER READING: Monday: 1 Timothy 6:6 (KJV) 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. Tuesday: Proverbs 8:13 (KJV) 13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. Wednesday: 1 Corinthians 7:5 (KJV) 5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempts you not for your incontinency. Thursday: Titus 2:4,6 (KJV) 4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 6 Young men likewise exhort to be sober-minded. Friday: Genesis 2:24 (KJV) 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Saturday: Matthew 19:1-9 (KJV)
1. And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan; 2. And great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there. 3. The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause? 4. And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, 5. And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? 6. Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. 7. They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? 8. He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning, it was not so. 9. And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

MEMORY VERSE: “And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.” – Judges 4:4
BIBLE PASSAGE: Judges 4:1-22 KJV
1 And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the LORD, when Ehud was dead. 2 And the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, that reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose host was Sisera, which dwelt in Harosheth of the Gentiles. 3 And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD: for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel. 4 And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time. 5 And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment. 6 And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedeshnaphtali, and said unto him, Hath not the LORD God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun? 7 And I will draw unto thee to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thine hand. 8 And Barak said unto her, If thou wilt go with me, than I will go: but if thou wilt not go with me, than I will not go. 9 And she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey that thou takest shall not be for thine honour; for the LORD shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh. 10 And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh; and he went up with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him. 11 Now Heber the Kenite, which was of the children of Hobab the father in law of Moses, had severed himself from the Kenites, and pitched his tent unto the plain of Zaanaim, which is by Kedesh. 12 And they shewed Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam was gone up to mount Tabor. 13 And Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles unto the river of Kishon. 14 And Deborah said unto Barak, Up; for this is the day in which the LORD hath delivered Sisera into thine hand: is not the LORD gone out before thee? So Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him. 15 And the LORD discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; so that Sisera lighted down off his chariot, and fled away on his feet. 16 But Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the host, unto Harosheth of the Gentiles: and all the host of Sisera fell upon the edge of the sword; and there was not a man left. 17 Howbeit Sisera fled away on his feet to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite: for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite. 18 And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said unto him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And when he had turned in unto her into the tent, she covered him with a mantle. 19 And he said unto her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty. And she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him. 20 Again he said unto her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man doth come and enquire of thee, and say, Is there any man here? that thou shalt say, No. 21 Then Jael Heber’s wife took a nail of the tent, and took an hammer in her hand, and went softly unto him, and smote the nail into his temples, and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died. 22 And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said unto him, Come, and I will shew thee the man whom thou seekest. And when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail was in his temples.
INTRODUCTION
Deborah, the wife of a man called Lapidoth was a prophetess and a judge of Israel. She lived in the 12th century BC and held her court under a tree called “the palm of Deborah” in Ephraim. Deborah’s story is found in Judges, chapters 4 and 5. Her story emphasizes God’s willingness to use men and women alike.
LESSON OUTLINES
Character And Achievement
Lessons From Deborah’s Life
1. CHARACTER AND ACHIEVEMENT
Apart from being an exceptional woman, we can say the following about Deborah. She had confidence in God and this made her bold enough for what seemed like a deadly assignment (Judges 4:6-7; Psalm 118:9). She judged under a palm tree, a setting that Rabbinic tradition maintains, that validated her fairness, openness and refusal to show partiality (Judges 4:5). She was considerate in her leadership role. She understood Barrack’s plight in refusing to go to battle alone against Jabin without her ( Judges 4:8-9).
Deborah was the only woman in the Bible to hold the position of prophetess and judge of Israel at the same time. When Deborah became judge, the Israelites had been subjected for 20years by Jabin, king of Cannan. She was relevant both in civil and religious affairs (Judges 4:4). She served during a time when none of the men were willing to lead. She was a successful judge and wife. The triumphant song of Deborah is one of the most ancient literary pieces in the Bible (Judges 5: 1-31). Under her guidance, barrack conquered Sisera’s army and delivered Israel from the oppression of the Canaanite King, Jabin. The Lord used her to set her people free.
2. LESSONS FROM DEBORAH’S LIFE
God often calls people to step out in faith to attempt the unexpected which may require great risk and effort on our part (Judges 4:6-7; 2 Corinthians 5:7). If God has a work for us and we turn it down, He will find someone else to do it (Judges 4:6-9). God’s work, when it is done in God’s way, brings triumphant songs (Judges 5). God often used unlikely people and sources to accomplish His plans like He used Jael (Judges 4:21; 1 Corinthians 1:27). We can see that God’s power is what matters, regardless of the instrument He chooses to use. Men or women, strong or weak, confident or hesitant – all are strong when they are moved by God’s Spirit and filled with His strength (Proverbs 21:31).

OPENING PRAYER: Father, let my dance bring praise to you. MEMORY VERSE: “Then David danced before the LORD with all his might and David was wearing a linen ephod.”- 2 Samuel 6:14 (NKJV)
BIBLE PASSAGE: 2 Samuel 6:12-22 12 And it was told king David, saying, The LORD hath blessed the house of Obededom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark of God. So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obededom into the city of David with gladness. 13 And it was so, that when they that bare the ark of the LORD had gone six paces, he sacrificed oxen and fatlings.
14 And David danced before the LORD with all his might, and David was girded with a linen ephod. 15 So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet. 16 And as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, Michal Saul’s daughter looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart. 17 And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in his place, in the midst of the tabernacle that David had pitched for it: and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD. 18 And as soon as David had made an end of offering burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts. 19 And he dealt among all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, as well to the women as men, to every one a cake of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine. So all the people departed everyone to his house. 20 Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself! 21 And David said unto Michal, It was before the LORD, which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD. 22 And I will yet be viler than thus, and will be base in mine own sight: and of the maidservants which thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour.
INTRODUCTION
Dance is a performing art form consisting of a purposefully selected sequence of body movements. Dancing is one of those issues that have been questioned in the past. Some groups have viewed all forms of dance as evil. There are no Bible verses prohibiting us from dancing, rather, joyful dancing has been clearly documented in the Bible. However, dance can be used either as an act of worship to glorify God or for wrongful purposes. Youths should get the correct perspective and act wisely.

LESSON OUTLINE 1: DANCING IN THE BIBLE
The teacher should allow the class to mention instances of dancing in the Bible. He should guide the class through the following points: A. There are instances of dancing in the Bible that can be categorised into two; i. Dancing to God or with good intentions. ii. Dancing to idols or with bad intentions. B. There are appearances of God’s people dancing as an act of worship in the Bible i. The first is found with Miriam the prophetess, Aaron’s sister (Exo. 15:20) i. Another instance is found in 2 Samuel 6:16, which has David leaping a dancing before the LORD” C. The implication of this is that Christian youths should dance as an act of worship unto God. D. In the second category, the Israelites were found dancing before a golden calf in worship and being out of control, they danced naked (Exo 32:6, 19-25). In this case, dancing led to very sinful activity. E. Hence, the fact that you can dance or are gifted in the art of dancing means that you should: i. Dance to any kind of music. ii. Dance at any occasion/gathering where God’s name is not proclaimed or glorified (Eccl 3:4) iii. This is because, in the process, you may be dancing before idols or to demon-inspired songs/beats. CLASS ACTIVITY 1: The class should mention some of the demon-inspired songs/beats or dancing styles in vogue in our society today.
LESSON OUTLINE 2: THE CORRECT PERSPECTIVE
The teacher should ask the class to discuss how youth can dance in a godly and acceptable manner and should then guide the discussion from the following perspective: A. Many Christians have forgotten that the Bible warns against end-time devices of Satan (2 Cor.2:11). Hence: i. Christian youths should avoid sexually stimulating, indecent and seductive body movements while dancing so as not to create wrong impressions (2 Cor.12:19-20; Eph.4:17-19). ii. Holding or touching of sensual parts of your body or the body of the opposite gender, in the name of dancing, should be avoided, as this could stimulate sexual urge and impure thoughts (1 Thess 5:22). iii. Any dancing style that stirs up sinful thoughts or desires in you or in others is sinful. iv. Dancing to bring attention to yourself or your body, therefore, would be sinful (1 Cor 6:19-20). B. As long as the dance is decent, God-focused and praiseworthy, it can have a proper place in worship (Psalms 149:3). C. It is important to understand that dance in the context of worship is not simply self-expression. It should be done in a way that is helpful to the entire congregation (Psalms 150:4). D. Hence, anything during a worship gathering that distracts from a focus on Christ should be left out. E. Moreover, the content of a song (lyrics) and the personality of the singer (whether he or she is a child of God) should be verified before you dance to such Songs/beats. F. The believer’s focus for dancing must be to fulfil 1 Corinthians 10:31 which teaches, “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.”
CLASS ACTIVITY 2: The teacher should ask one or two students to demonstrate the kind of dancing style discussed in category A of this outline and allow the class to discuss why such dance is ungodly.
SUMMARY: While the Bible teaches believers to dance as an art and act of worship to God, youths should be watchful so that the devil will not take advantage of their vulnerability.
CONCLUSION: You can dance in a way that does not tempt or lure others to sin. Let your dance bring glory to God.
EVALUATION: The teacher should ask students to mention the right perspective to dancing.
CLOSING PRAYER: Father, please let my dance be an acceptable offering to you. ASSIGNMENT: Review your motive for dancing and its effect on others.
