Humility

2-Chronicles_7-14: If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land

1-Peter_5-6: Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

Text:
1 Peter 5:5-6

 
Introduction:
God rejoices in the truth, humility and righteousness. God associates with the meek and humble. Humility is the quality of not thinking that you are better than other people. A Christian should be humble, self-effacing and not self-advertising.

Some Benefits Of Humility

 
1. Wisdom Proverbs 11:2
2. Honour. Proverbs 15:33
3. Wealth and good health. Proverbs 22:4
4. Good human relations. Proverbs 18:12
5. Help from God and man. Psalms 138:6
6. Divine selection and answers to prayers. 1 Corinthians 1:28
7. Victories. Job 5:11
8. Longevity. Psalm 91:16
9. God’s presence. Isaiah 57:15
10. Assurance of heaven. Philippians 3:21

 
Sources of Humility
1. By choice: you may decide to be humble on your own
2. By Force: God may decide to make you a humble person through humiliation. Daniel

 
Conclusion:
Christ demonstrated humility while on earth. Philippians 2:1-11.
God expects us to do the same thing.

Thank You Jesus.

1-Peter_5-6: Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

James_4-10: Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up

Clay In Potter’s Hand

Isaiah_64-8: But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand

Text:
Jeremiah 18:1-6
The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
2 Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words.
3 Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.
4 And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.
5 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
6 O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.

Introduction:
God is the potter while we are the clay. He decides what He wants to use the clay to mold. The clay does not have a say in what the potter intends to use the clay to mold. God, the Chief Potter, can turn ordinary clay to a beautiful piece through His divine master piece.

What Does It Take To Be God’s Master Piece?

1. You Must Be Ready To Be A Raw Material Ie The Clay,
Jeremiah 18:4-6
And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.

5 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

6 O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.

2. You Must Be Broken Down For The Potter (GOD) To Remold You To The Form And Fashion, He Desires.

Isaiah 29:16
You turn things upside down, as if the potter were thought to be like the clay! Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, “You did not make me”? Can the pot say to the potter, “You know nothing”?

3. You Must Be Prepared To Go Through The Various Stages Of Molding And Remolding.

Isaiah 64:8
Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.

4. Don’t Allow God To Regret His Efforts In Making You What He Has Made You To Be.

Isaiah 45:9
“Woe to those who quarrel with their Maker, those who are nothing but potsherds among the potsherds on the ground. Does the clay say to the potter, ‘What are you making?’ Does your work say, ‘The potter has no hands’?

5. You Must Know That God Can Break You Down Again To An Ordinary Clay If You Disappointed Him.

Romans 9:20
But who are you, a human being, to talk back to God? “Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?'”

6. Don’t Allow God To Break You Down To An Ordinary Clay, Because It Could Be Regrettable.

Jeremiah 18:6
He said, “Can I not do with you, Israel, as this potter does?” declares the LORD. “Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, Israel.

Conclusion:

As clay in the potter’s hand, be ready to be what He wants you to be.

Thank You Jesus.

Isaiah_64-8: But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand

MISSIONS

Mark_16-15: And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature

TEXT: Mark 13: 10.

 
INTRODUCTION:

Missions has become a very common word in our churches today. Very often, people have different ideas about the word. Today, we want to discuss some fundamental truths about missions.

 
WHAT IS MISSION?

 
Mission could be defined as the efforts of the church to reconcile the whole world back unto God. Lk 24: 47; Acts 1: 8.

Human race was scattered into different tribes, languages, people etc. Gen 11: 5-7, as a result of which God in His fatherly care, began the process of reconciliation of the whole world back to Him. Gen 12: 1-3; Jn 3: 17.

God sent Jesus Christ to reconcile the whole world back to Him through His sacrifice. Jn 3: 16. The church is now responsible to carry on the search work to bring the scattered to God. Mk 13: 10; Isa 49: 6; 2 Cor 5: 19.

 
CONCLUSION:

We are God’s messenger with the word of reconciliation sent to reconcile the world unto God.

Thank You Jesus.

Acts_1-8: 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.

HOW TO OVERCOME TEMPTATION

Mark_14-38: Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak

James_1-12-1: Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him

TEXT: 1 Corinthians 10: 12-14.

 
INTRODUCTION:

Temptation is not sin but yielding to it is sin. How not to yield to temptations but overcome it is our focus today.

 
HOW TO OVERCOME TEMPTATION?

 
(i) By relying on the faithfulness of God. 1 Cor 10: 13; Heb 2: 18.

 
(ii) By using the word of God appropriately. Matt 4: 1-11; Ps 119: 11.

 
(iii) By fervent personal prayer. Matt 26: 41; Eph 6: 18.

 
(iv) By resisting. Jam 4: 7. Say No to the devil.

 
(v) By fleeing or avoiding every appearance of evil. 2 Tim 2: 22; 1 Thess 5: 22; Prov 4: 14-15; Ps 1: 1.

 
(vi) Discipline your thought, tongue and taste. Ps 34: 13.

 
CONCLUSION:

The charge of Jesus Christ to Peter, James and John at the Garden of Gethsemane is still relevant today. “Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation…”

Thank You Jesus.

1-Corinthians_10-13: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it

Matthew_26-41-1: Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak

YOUR BIRTHRIGHT

2-Timothy_2-1-1: Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus

TEXT: Romans 8: 28-39.

 
INTRODUCTION:

A spiritual rebirth takes place at redemption and then one is said to be born again. This means we now have a new life in Christ. (i.e. a divine nature). This automatically gives us some basic right as children of God.

 
1. Right to divine health and healing. 3 Jn 2; Isa 53: 4-5. This refers not only to physical health alone but also mental, spiritual, emotional and financial.

 
2. Right to dominion. Col 2: 15; Gen 1: 26-27. The dominion lost by man as a result of sin was restored at redemption. Lk 10: 18-19.

 
3. Right to holiness. Obadiah 1: 17; Matt 5: 48; 1 Pet 1: 15-16; Rom 6: 14; Heb 12: 14; 1 Thess 5: 23.

 
4. Right to the Throne. Rom 8: 12-17. As sons of God, we are heirs to the Throne and so have some privileges such as standing uncondemned before God. Rom 8: 1; having His righteousness and access to the throne of grace. 2 Cor 5: 21; needs being met. Phil 4: 19; ability to do all things. Phil 4: 13; access to His rest. Heb 4: 1.

 
CONCLUSION:

God has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness. 2 Pet 1: 3-4.

Thank You Jesus.

HOW TO RELEASE THE POWER OF PRAYERS

James_5-16: Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Matthew_21-22: And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

TEXT: Psalm 110: 1-5.

 
INTRODUCTION: Prayer is as powerful as the God that answers prayer. Therefore, prayers have the following powers:

 
POWER OF PRAYERS:

 
(i) Power to resist and defeat Satan. 1 Pet 5: 8-9; Jm 4: 7.

 
(ii) Prayer brings the presence of Christ into manifestation, overrules Satan and his demons and rules the universe. Ps 110: 1-3.

 
(iii) It has power to overrule the laws of nature. Jos 10: 12; Matt 14: 27-29.

 
(iv) It obtains angelic assistance. Ps 103: 20; Heb.1: 14; Acts.12: 1-11; Isa 37: 36. Among other things, angels protect from dangers. 2 Kgs 6: 17; renew physical strength. Lk 22: 43; bring messages to God’s children. Matt 28: 2-7.

 
RELEASING THE POWER OF PRAYERS

 
To release the power of prayers, we must

(i) know that prayers are for establishing the Lordship of Jesus Christ on earth and for bringing His will to come to pass. Ps 110: 1, 4; Matt 6: 10.

 
(ii) Be translated into the kingdom of Christ by being born again and getting committed to establishing it on earth. Jn 3: 3; Col 1: 13; Matt 24: 14; Acts 1: 6-8.

 
(ii) Practically get involved in praying both at a personal and corporate level. Ps 55: 17; Dan 6: 10; Acts 3: 1; Acts 12: 5.

 
CONCLUSION:

It is high time we stopped all lip services to prayers and got down to the all-important work of praying so that we can reign as God destined us.

Thank You Jesus.

Romans_12-12: Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer

A FAMILY IN ACTIVE WITNESS FOR THE LORD

Acts_1-8: 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.

TEXT: Matthew 10: 32-33.

 
INTRODUCTION:

God instituted marriage for the sole purpose of partnership, purity, procreation and fellowship. The Christian family is meant to actively witness the fulfillment of these purposes. The husband (father), wife (mother) and children must play their roles well as active witnesses of the Lord and together as the bedrock of the church of God.

 
IN ACTIVE WITNESS BY WORDS AND WORKS

 
As members of Christian homes, the father, mother and children are required to be active witnesses for Christ by words. Acts 2: 38-40, Jn 4: 28-29; 2 Kgs 5: 2-4.
Also, the entire family members are required to witness for Christ through their works/exemplary lifestyles.

 
Husband (Fathers) are required to witness Jesus Christ by being sober- minded, grave, temperate, sound in faith and love, patient and care for the home. Titus 2: 2; Eph 5: 25-33.

Wives (Mothers) should witness Jesus Christ by being holy, not false accusers, sober-minded, love their husbands and children, submissive and obedient to their husbands, discreet, keeper of home, home builder. Titus 2: 4-5; 1 Pet 3: 4-5; Eph 5: 22-24. Children should witness by being sincere, sober-minded to parents, be of good work, be of good speech, be of pure heart, devoid of evil. Titus 2: 6-8; Eph 6: 1-3.

 
CONCLUSION:

Believers in Christ – father, mother and children must witness Christ.

Thank You Jesus.

Acts_1-8: 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.
