“Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.” - (Psalm 65:11)


READ: ISAIAH 45:1-3 (KJV)


1 Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;


2 I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:


3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.

HYMNAL: 19 - ROCK OF AGES, CLEFT FOR ME


1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

let me hide myself in thee;

let the water and the blood,

from thy wounded side which flowed,

be of sin the double cure;


save from wrath and make me pure.

2 Not the labors of my hands

can fulfill thy law's demands;

could my zeal no respite know,

could my tears forever flow,

all for sin could not atone;

thou must save, and thou alone.


3 Nothing in my hand I bring,

simply to the cross I cling;

naked, come to thee for dress;

helpless, look to thee for grace;

foul, I to the fountain fly;

wash me, Savior, or I die.


4 While I draw this fleeting breath,

when mine eyes shall close in death,

when I soar to worlds unknown,

see thee on thy judgment throne,

Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

let me hide myself in thee.

THEME: FORGET THE THINGS OF THE PAST


MEMORISE:

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before. Philippians 3:13


READ: ISAIAH 43:18-19


18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.


19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.


MESSAGE:

We have come to the end of another year, and I believe that many people are thinking about how the year turned out. Many may even begin to feel that there are certain things that they should have done better. It is normal to have such feelings, as they can help a person to make better decisions in the future. However, it is unfruitful to dwell on the past. There is nothing to gain from living in regret about the past.


Beloved, it is time to put the past behind you and begin to look forward to the glorious year that is ahead of you.


First of all, no matter what you have or do not have yet, you must always give thanks. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 says,


"In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in  Christ Jesus concerning you."


Yes, the year has come to an end and you wish you had done better, but if you look closely, you will discover that you have many reasons to thank God. If you had died in the course of the year, you would not even be here to reflect on the past. There are so many things to thank God for. Show God that you are grateful because when God sees a grateful heart, He always visits that fellow with a blessing (1 Kings 3:3-15).


Secondly, note that God can make all things work together for your good (Romans 8:28). God can turn whatever you count as a loss into profit for you. When Joseph was thrown into prison in Genesis 39:20, it seemed like a bad experience for him; little did he know that the prison was his steppingstone to becoming the Prime Minister of the greatest nation in the world at that time.


Don't ever write yourself off; always put God in the will equation of your life. When you do this, you experience a complete turnaround and His tremendous blessings will follow.


If, however, you have been living in sin, do not expect God to help you turn things around. He said in Isaiah 3:11, "Say unto the wicked that it shall be ill with him." This means that it shall not be well with anyone that is living in sin. On the other hand, the Bible says in Isaiah 3:10, "Say unto the righteous, it shall be well with him."


Beloved, if you want to experience God's blessings in the year ahead of you, make up your mind to live according to His will daily.


ACTION POINT:

Live according to God's word every day in 2025, and all will be well with you. Happy New Year in advance.

HYMN 16: TIS SO SWEET TO TRUST IN JESUS


1 'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus

Just to take Him at His Word

Just to rest upon His promise;

Just to know, "Thus saith the Lord"


Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him

How I've proved Him o'er and o'er!

Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!

Oh, for grace to trust Him more!


2 O how sweet to trust in Jesus,

Just to trust His cleansing blood;

And in simple faith to plunge me

'Neath the healing, cleansing flood! 


3 Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus,

Just from sin and self to cease,

Just from Jesus simply taking

Life and rest, and joy and peace.


4 I'm so glad I learned to trust Thee,

Precious Jesus, Saviour, Friend,

And I know that Thou art with me,

Wilt be with me to the end

TOPIC: HANDLING CRITICISMS


MEMORISE:

“Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.” - (Hebrews 12:11)


READ: PROVERBS 15:31-32 (KJV)


31  The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise.


32 He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding.


MESSAGE:

A lot of people think that being a leader means that whatever they say or do is final and should not be questioned. If you are making any progress in life, criticisms will definitely come. When The Redeemed Christian Church of God was just a small church with headquarters in a small corner of Ebute-metta, no one criticized us. Now that we have branches all around the world, criticisms come in from everywhere. This is a sign of growth, and rather than being sad about it, I am happy that we have grown.


Some people will criticize you out of love because your success means a lot to them. Some will criticize you out of spite because they are envious of you and want you to fail. Either way, your attitude to criticism is what will determine if you will succeed or fail. Proverbs 1:5-7 says:


A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels: To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.


Beloved, be open to suggestions from your subordinates or people who you consider younger or less experienced than you. When they tell you that you are not doing something right, listen to them without getting defensive or aggressive. If you grumble and sulk for days because you were criticized, you need to speak to yourself so that you can last. No matter what people say about you, you must never give the impression that you are above correction. Moses was the anointed one who was called by God. He spoke to God mouth to mouth (Numbers 12:8), yet the solution to the challenge he had in ministry was with his father-in-law who did not have the same intimacy with God as he did. You may be the head of your home, Chief Executive Officer or pastor, but that does not mean you know it all.


Believe me, every criticism is an opportunity for you to become a better person. If you take it well, you will become better. The choice is yours. Some of the decisions we made that helped us become better were responses to criticism. I know some of the critics meant harm, but God used them to show us how to do things better, and we are growing stronger for it.


KEY POINT:

Always see criticism as an opportunity to grow, not an opportunity to fight the critic.

DATE: SATURDAY DECEMBER 28TH 2024


TOPIC: EXAMINE YOURSELF


MEMORISE:

“Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?” - (2 Corinthians 13:5)


READ: 1 CORINTHIANS 11:31-32 (KJV)


31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.


32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.


MESSAGE:

In Isaiah 6:1-5, Isaiah beheld God’s glory and holiness, and he cried, “Woe is me!” Before then, he had been prophesying, and everyone saw him as holy. However, he looked at himself in the light of God’s glory and holiness, and saw the real state he was in.


Beloved, it is important to have a self-reflection every now and then. Don’t rely solely on what people say about you because they might not know you as well as you know yourself. They might not know the thoughts of your heart or what you do behind closed doors. Therefore, you need to look closely at yourself and perform an honest evaluation of the real state of your heart.


Don’t judge yourself by your own standards; rather, judge yourself by God’s standard. The Bible says in (2 Corinthians 10:18) that it is not the fellow who commends himself that is righteous, but the one that the Lord commends. Isaiah might have been judging himself by his own standards, but when he encountered God’s glory, he saw that he was not in the state he was supposed to be. Judge yourself in the light of the truth in God’s word; this will tell you whether you are on the right track or not. Do not judge yourself based on your feelings, what the society is saying, or on your achievements. Use God’s word as a mirror, and let it show you the real you. After weighing yourself according to God’s word, surrender completely to Him and ask Him to help you to live right.


After Isaiah’s experience in Isaiah 6:1-5, he knew that the only way he could truly be holy was by God’s help. You cannot be righteous by your own power; you need God to help you. Psalm 20:1-2 says that you should pray that the Lord sends help to you from the sanctuary. Until you know that you need help, help won’t come from the sanctuary. You must remain in front of the mirror of God’s word until you receive help to become righteous. Do not be like the man that was described in James 1:22-24; continue steadfastly in God’s word.


(1 Corinthians 11:31) says that if you judge yourself properly, you will not be judged. This means that after examining yourself, identifying your faults, and making the right adjustments, you will not be condemned when the time of judgment comes.


Beloved, I pray that as you make a habit of examining yourself using the standard of God, you will receive a commendation from the Master on the last day, in Jesus’ name.


PRAYER POINT:

Father, please help me to live by Your standards at all times, in Jesus' name.


BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: REVELATION 15-17


AUTHOR PASTOR E A ADEBOYE 


HYMNAL: 23 - TAKE MY LIFE, AND LET IT BE 


1 Take my life and let it be

consecrated, Lord, to thee.

Take my moments and my days;

let them flow in endless praise,

let them flow in endless praise.


2 Take my hands and let them move

at the impulse of thy love.

Take my feet and let them be

swift and beautiful for thee,

swift and beautiful for thee.


3 Take my voice and let me sing

always, only, for my King.

Take my lips and let them be

filled with messages from thee,

filled with messages from thee.


4 Take my silver and my gold;

not a mite would I withhold.

Take my intellect and use

every power as thou shalt choose,

every power as thou shalt choose.


5 Take my will and make it thine;

it shall be no longer mine.

Take my heart it is thine own;

it shall be thy royal throne,

it shall be thy royal throne.


6 Take my love; my Lord, I pour

at thy feet its treasure store.

Take myself, and I will be

ever, only, all for thee,

ever, only, all for thee.

5.Father, please, open the eyes of the unbelievers as you opened mine, and deliver them out of their prison into the freedom that Jesus has made available for them, in Jesus' name.

DATE  FRIDAY DECEMBER 27TH 2024 


TOPIC:  REDEMPTION    

                                                                  MEMORISE:   In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Ephesians 1:7


BIBLE READING:    1 PETER 2:6-12    

                                                                                                             6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.


7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,


8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.


9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;


10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.


11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;


12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.   

                                                                        MESSAGE: 

                                                                                  Every human being needs redemption. This is because the natural state of fallen man is that of bondage to sin. Romans 3:23 says that all have sinned and have come short of the glory of God. Thank God that the redemption we got through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ has freed us from the bondage of sin.


Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:


The forgiveness of sins (Ephesians 1:7), release from the curse of the law (Galatians 3:13), freedom from the bonds of sin (Titus 2:14; 1 Peter 1:14-18), righteousness (Romans 5:17), reconciliation with God (Colossians 1:18-20), adoption into God’s family (Galatians 4:5), the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20), and eternal life (John 3:16), are some of the advantages of redemption.


While many unbelievers see the Christian lifestyle as slavery because of its restrictions, the truth is that Christians are the ones who are free. A married woman has to submit to her husband, and that comes with restrictions, but if you ask her counterparts who are single, they will tell you that they prefer to be married. 


A jobless drunkard may laugh at someone who is rushing to work on a Monday morning and say that the fellow is not enjoying life. However, who is really suffering? The drunkard is the one under the bondage of alcohol. Unbelievers are locked in a prison, but they do not know it. Your prayer should be that the Almighty God should open their eyes as He opened yours and that they should come out of their prison and step into the freedom that Jesus has made available for them.


Beloved, do not ever be ashamed to talk about the restrictions that come with being redeemed. Yes, you are carrying the yoke of Christ, but His yoke is far lighter than that of the devil, and His burden is way easier (Matthew 11:28-30).


When a person becomes born again, the first thing he or she experiences is peace. A great burden is lifted off the fellow’s shoulders – a burden he or she did not realise was there before. If you have not yet given your life to Christ, you are in prison. Surrender your life to Jesus Christ today so that He can set you free. 

                                                                              KEY POINT: Let the Redeemed of the Lord proclaim their freedom with boldness and joy because they are free indeed.


BIBLE IN INE YEAR: REVELATION 12:14 


AUTHOR PASTOR E A ADEBOYE 


HYMNAL: AMAZING GRACE 

1 Amazing grace (how sweet the sound)

that saved a wretch like me!

I once was lost, but now am found,

was blind, but now I see.


2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

and grace my fears relieved;

how precious did that grace appear

the hour I first believed!


3 Through many dangers, toils and snares

I have already come:

'tis grace has brought me safe thus far,

and grace will lead me home.


4 The Lord has promised good to me,

his word my hope secures;

he will my shield and portion be

as long as life endures.


5 Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,

and mortal life shall cease:

I shall possess, within the veil,

a life of joy and peace.


6 The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

the sun forbear to shine;

but God, who called me here below,

will be forever mine.
