THEME: FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT

MEMORISE: 

As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. 

John 9:5 

READ: 1 John 1:5 -10

5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:

7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

MESSAGE

There are certain things in life that are difficult to define. One of such things is light. If someone asks you, "What is light?", you may simply say it is the opposite of darkness. However, to understand light you Need to understand what darkness stands for.

Our case study for this series will be Bartimaeus- a blind man who met Jesus and the darkness in his life ended. When you look at Mark 10:46-52, you will see some of the things that darkness portrays and thus identity certain things hidden in light. For example, darkness equals sickness. If darkness signifies sickness, then light signifies healing which is embedded in Jesus Christ the Light of the world (Exodus 15:26). When you have a relationship with Jesus, sickness cannot continue to stay in your life.

It is no news that darkness and the devil go hand in hand. When you look at Luke 13:11-17, you will see clearly that Jesus Christ called the spirit of infirmity an agent of the devil. Sickness and disease therefore have their origin in darkness. However, the light of God can see forces of darkness and deal with them completely.

There was a brother who was going to the USA for further studies and he threw a party before his departure. In the middle of this party, an enemy came and planted something evil into his life. From the day he arrived in the USA, he began to feel a pain in his stomach. All kinds of tests were conducted to no avail, yet the pain intensified. He struggled for six years, taking all manner of drugs until he finished his studies. When he returned to Nigeria, he hears that we were having a programme at Ibadan and decided to travel all the way from Zaria. The devil did everything to stop him but he finally made it on the last day of the programme. During the last message, he sat down and as the word of God was coming forth, the light of God hit him and suddenly, he began to shout, "I am free" because the pain of more than six years had disappeared. I prophesy to you: It doesn't matter how long you have been carrying that sickness or disease; my Daddy will chase it out today, in the mighty name of Jesus.

PRAYER POINT 

Father, please chase out every form of darkness in my life now, in Jesus name.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 37-39

THEME: JESUS OUR TEACHER

MEMORISE:  Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 2 John 1:9

READ: Matthew 7:24 -28

24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:

MESSAGE

John 3:1-2 tells us clearly that Jesus was a teacher. It may amaze you that throughout His ministry on earth, nobody ever palled Him Evangelist or Prophet or Pastor; they kept calling Him 'Teacher'. Everywhere Jesus went, He went teaching, including by the seaside (Mark 2:13).

Jesus is a teacher and likes to relate with us as such, this is good news because the teacher is held responsible for the success or failure of a student. If the teacher can then prove that the student failed because he or she refused to obey instructions, then the teacher is relieved of that responsibility. You see this clearly when Jesus gave His report at the end of His time on earth in John 17:12. He said: "While l was with them in the world, l kept them in thy name: those that thou gravest me l have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled."

Thus if you listen to all Jesus' instructions and obey Him, He will definitely help you make it to heaven at the end of time.

After Jesu resurrected from the dead, His role advanced from teacher to Teacher of teachers. This is why, in John 20:16, Mary called Him 'Rabboni' a special title used to honour great teachers. For those of us who are teachers of the gospel, James 3:1 says that we would receive greater condemnations on the last day if our works are found wanting. Of course, this is because such people are responsible for the souls of men that the Almighty God allocates to them. The good news however, is that we have a Teacher who will teach us how to,pass this great test on the last day. He is always there to teach you how to succeed in whatever assignment He commits into your hands. That is why l have always told my children not to get do busy with ministry that they lose connection with the Teacher of teachers. Believe me honestly, without Him, you cannot do ministry right. You cannot be snatching souls from the devil's kingdom and expect him to be soft on you. He will deploy many tactics to bring you down, but if you remain connected to the Teacher of teachers, you will win in the end.

PRAYER POINT 

Teacher of Teachers, please teach me what to do to make it to heaven at the end.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 33-36

HYMN 9: IMMORTAL, INVISIBLE GOD ONLY WISE

1 Immortal, invisible, God only wise,

in light inaccessible hid from our eyes,

most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,

almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise.

2 Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,

nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;

thy justice like mountains high soaring above

thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.

3 To all life thou givest, to both great and small;

in all life thou livest, the true life of all;

we blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,

and wither and perish but naught changeth thee.

4 Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,

thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;

all praise we would render, O help us to see

'tis only the splendor of light hideth thee.

Worship and Rejoice, 2003

DATE: MONDAY 7TH, AUGUST 2023.

THEME: INTERCEDE I

MEMORISE:

I exhort therefore, that first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions and giving of thanks be made for all men.

1 Timothy 2:1

READ: EXODUS 32:9-14 

9  And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:

10 Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.

11 And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?

12 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.

13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever.

14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.

MESSAGE

Intercession is an assignment for every true child of God. Intercessors are people who carry the burdens of God. They pray the prayers God wants them to, not just their own prayers. When God needs something done on earth, He looks for intercessors to partner with. He looks for a man to stand in the gap for others.

And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none. Ezekiel 22:30

Remember when God was going to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 18 - it was clear that God was looking for someone to stand in the gap for the people of Sodom. You will see that God agreed to every plea Abraham made for the people. God always looks for someone to stand in the gap for others; when He looks your way, will He find you to be an intercessor?

You may ask, "Why can't God just reveal to the fellow who is about to get into trouble so he can pray for himself?" The truth is, sometimes, God needs someone else to pray for other people so they are not destroyed. At such times, He puts it in the heart of an intercessor to stand in the gap in prayers. This is clearly illustrated in the case of job and his friends (Job 42:8).

Many people are perishing today because there is a shortage of intercessors willing to carry the burdens to God in the place of prayer. Enough of praying for yourself alone. Don't be a selfish Christian. When you pray, let God put into your heart what or who you should pray for. If He lays in your heart to pray for another country that is not yours, don't say, "What is my business with those people?" Pray as He has laid in your heart so that at least one person there can be saved. Sometimes He will ask you to pray for one fellow; do so, because your prayer may be what would make the difference between the fellow living or dying. God is seeking intercessors, will He find you?

ACTION POINT:

Commit to becoming an intercessor today.

SING HYMN 22: SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER

1. Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer! 

That calls me from a world of care, 

And bids me at my Father's throne 

Make all my wants and wishes known. 

In seasons of distress and grief, 

My soul has often found relief, 

And oft escaped the tempter's snare 

By thy return, sweet hour of prayer! 

2. Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer! 

The joys I feel, the bliss I share 

Of those whose anxious spirits burn 

With strong desires for thy return! 

With such I hasten to the place 

Where God my Saviour shows His face, 

And gladly take my station there, 

And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer! 

3. Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer! 

Thy wings shall my petition bear 

To Him whose truth and faithfulness 

Engage the waiting soul to bless. 

And since He bids me seek His Face, 

Believe His Word, and trust His Grace, 

I'll cast on Him my every care, 

And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!

TOPIC: INCREASE YOUR SPIRITUAL CAPACITY II

MEMORISE:

For the flesh lusteth against the spirit and the spirit against the flesh and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

Galatians 5:17

READ:

Romans 8:1-13

1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

MESSAGE:

We learnt yesterday about the importance of increasing our spiritual capacity and a bit about how to go about this. Today, we would go a bit deeper in discussing how to increase our spiritual capacity. The main goal in increasing our spiritual capacity is to be more spiritually-minde; to be more like Jesus and less like our default human nature.

Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. Romans 8:7

The first thing you must do is to surrender your life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ, be baptized by immersion, signifying your death to the flesh and a new life in Jesus. After this, you seek to be baptized in the Holy Spirit and invite Him to dwell in you and take control of your life.

Once the above steps are taken, you must begin to do less of the things your flesh wants you to do. Don't let your flesh control you. You cannot be spending all your free time on social media, attending parties or eating as often as you like. If you give your flesh everything it asks for, you will remain under its control and this can only lead to eternal damnation. Paul said in Acts 17:28 that it is in Jesus that we believers live, move and have our being. That must be your testimony too. You also need the Holy Spirit to keep the flesh under control. You are not strong enough to deal with the flesh by yourself (Romans 8:13).

To continue to grow your spiritual capacity, you must truly pray without ceasing, as 1 Thessalonians 5:17 says. If you are not willing to pray consistently and fervently at all times, you are not yet willing to increase your spiritual capacity. When you cannot pray in understanding, switch to praying in the Spirit. Fasting and studying the word of God daily must also become your lifestyle (Jeremiah 15:16). You must also seek to hear God at all times. Ask Him questions about things you don't understand in the Scriptures.

These steps may appear simple and straight forward, but many people find it difficult to do them consistently.

REFLECTION:

Are you increasing your spiritual capacity?

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:

Jeremiah 9-11

AUTHOR: PASTOR E.A. ADEBOYE 

HYMN 10

IN CHRIST ALONE

1. In Christ alone my hope is found

He is my light, my strength, my song

This Cornerstone, this solid ground,

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace

When fears are stilled, when striving cease

My Comforter, my All in All,

Here in the love of Christ I stand.

2. In Christ alone who took on flesh

Fullness of God in helpless Babe

This gift of love and righteousness,

Scorned by the ones He came to save

'Til on that cross as Jesus died,

The wrath of God was satisfied,

For every sin on Him was laid,

Here in the death of Christ I live.

3. There in the ground His body lay

Light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious Day,

Up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory

Sin's curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine

Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

4. No guilt in life, no fear in death

This is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath,

Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man

Could ever pluck me from His hand

'Til He returns or calls me home,

Here in the power of Christ I stand.
