RCCG SOD Year Three. The Disciple And His Master
A Disciple must be seven things to his Master. According to 2 Timothy 2:1, a disciple must be the following to his Master:
1. A Son, not slave or tenant 2 Timothy 2:1
2. He must be a soldier and be ready to fight for his Master 2 Timothy 2:3.
3. he must be a student for his Master 2 Timothy 2:15a.
4. He must be a servant of his Lord, that is someone ready to serve.
5. According to 2 Timothy 2:2, a disciple must also be a maker of other disciples.
6. A Disciple must be a workman 2 Timothy 2:15.
The disciple must be a Teacher or an Instructor on the things of God to others.
At least a disciple should be seven things to his Master, a Son, A Soldier, a Servanr, A maker of other Disciples, a Workman, and a Teacher.
A Disciple of Jesus is a son of God and you cannot be his disciple until you receive him.
The Bible says ” But as many as received him, to them he gave power to become the won’t of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12).
As soon as you become a son of God, the following becomes hours:
1. You are an heir of God (Romans 8:16-17). This means everything God has is yours.
2. You are a joint heir with Jesus Christ. When God said we are joint heirs with Jesus, it means whatever Jesus claims for himself, we can also claim. Therefore, we must see that all things which belong to the Fayhera must not be destroyed.
3. You are a friend of Jesus. According to John 15:15, you are promoted from being a servant to a friend. Jesus said,
“Henceforth, I call you not servants, for the servant knoweth not what His Lord doeth; but I have called you Friends, for all things that I have heard of nu Father I have made known unto you”.
The implications of being a friend of Jesus Chrost are many :
#1 You are no longer a stranger
You will no longer be treated as stranger in the house of GOD. (Eph. 2:8-19). I mean, if you are my friend, as soon as you come to.ny house you are welcome.
#2 Draw near to God.
We are now given the permission to draw near to God We have tbs boldness to go into the:
I. Greater Court
ii. Holy place and
iii. Holy of Holies
By the blood of Jesus we can enter into the Holy of Holies. in history, we have friends of God that were nearer to Him. (Exodua 20:21, 24:2). When other children of Israel worshipped afar off, Moses alone came near the Lord. like Moses, we can move into the Holy of Holies. We can go into the very throne room of God. Others could not come near throne room of God. Others could not come near and God told Moaes, You come in., come into the cloud but if any of them come near the mountain at all, they will die. When you are a friend, you can do certain things that others people cannot do.
#3 Access to God
You now have have access to the secrets of God. The dicsiple , because he is a friend of Christ., can know what the Lord intends to do. In Genesia 8:17-19, the Bible says:
” And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do, seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and the nations of the earth shall be blessed by him? for I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment, that the Lord may bring upon, Abraham that which he hath spoken of him”.
God said, “How can I hide anything from Abraham, I know he is my friend “, I know he will reach Hid Children to follow the Chriatian way.
You can also read James 2:23. God will revel to you even deep mysteries that are not normally known, because you are Hid friend. Read the whole of Danoel Chapter 2. You can also read 1 Cor. 2:9-10. If you are Hos friend you will constantly hear Him guiding you. When a disciple becomes a friend of his master, he can hear the voice of hi ms Lors clearlu. I’m John 3:29, John 3:29, John the Baptist said his won joy was just to hear the voice of the bridegroom.
Here, he was referring to Jesus Christ as the bridegroom. He who has a bride is the bridegroon.and am not quarwllibg with him over his bride. He said I am happy that I am hearing his voice. He said I am happy than I am hearingnhos voice. You too would be able to hear the voice of God.
You know many people have demons and they don’t know what God is trying to say. But when God is dealing with Hos friend, He dosen’t talk in proverbs. He would make himself clear as in Numbers 12:6-8, God said” when I want to talk to a prophet, it may be in drwms, some of them in visions “But when it comes to Mose, He talks to him mouth-to-mouth ; like two friends. Some of us can get to that stage. If you are His friend. he will talk to you very clearly.
When you have somebody like that who hears God on mouth to mouth basis. of course you know it is a dangerous thing to speak against such a fellow. because his friends will be listening as you are talking and is ready to deal with you. Jesus Christ said in John 15:13 that greater love has no.man as to lay down his life for his friend.
