OPENING PRAYER: Father, let your grace of winning at all times continue to rest on me.

MEMORY VERSE: For with God nothing shall be impossible. – Luke 1:37 3:1 (KJV)

BIBLE TEXT: Mark 5:25-29 (KJV)

25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,

26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.

INTRODUCTION: A winner is someone who lives according to God’s principles and values. They are capable of walking in freedom and victory as stated in John 8:32 and 36. According to Genesis 1:26,27, God created us to succeed in every aspect of life – physically, spiritually, materially and beyond.

Salvation Prayer

If you don’t Know Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour and would like to accept him into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour, Please say this prayer:

Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from You. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward You. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that Your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send Your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your Will for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
