BIBLE PASSAGE: ACTS 16:1-5

[1] Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek:

[2] Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium.

[3] Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek.

[4] And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which were at Jerusalem.

[5] And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily.

MEMORY VERSE: ‘Ye have not chosen me
but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that
ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that
your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye
shall ask of the Father in my name, he may
give it you’ John 1516.

LESSON INTRODUCTION: The Lord’s command is that all born again Christians should bear fruits and more importantly that the fruits should abide. Therefore, there is the need for extra spiritual efforts on souls saved to get established, localised in a church fellowship and mobilised until they too become soul winners.

The Master did not just command us to bear fruits but that the fruits may abide (John 15:16). There is nothing compared to the worth of a soul won into the kingdom of God (Luke 15:4-7).

2. LESSON OUTLINES
LESSON OUTLINE 1: FRUIT-BEARING IS A
MUST FOR THE BELIEVER

A. The primary purpose of our election into
the family of God is to bear fruits (Jn.15:16:
Rom. 7:4).

B. Failure to carry out this instruction may be
disastrous in that it may lead to an eternal
loss of fellowship with the Lord Jesus Christ
Jn.15:1-2; Matt.3:10).

C. It is wise therefore, to watch on possible
causes of unfruitfulness which may include:
i. Wiles and devices of the wicked one (Eph.6:11).
ii. Tribulations, persecution and worldliness (Matt. 13:18-22).

D. It is important to note that these causes may not be due to a personal fault, yet this type of attitude may incur the Lord’s disappointment for failing to invest life’s resources (Lk.13:6-9, Lk.19:20).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1: Students should mention how many souls they have won to the Kingdom of God since they gave their lives to Christ.

LESSON OUTLINE 2: ABIDING FRUITS IS
CHRIST’S COMMAND
A. Jesus ordained the believers not only to bear fruits but also to ensure that the fruits last (abide) Jn.15:16).

B. In order to achieve this, efforts must be
geared towards conceiving, maturing and
multiplying of the fruits (Col.1:28).

C. An essential tool in the hand of the Holy
Spirit to achieve this is the man/woman sold
out to the ministry of follow-up of the souls.

D. Biblical examples include the early Apostles particularly Paul (Acts 2:46; Act 15:36; Acts 16:5; Acts 18:18-23; Eph.1:15-18; Phil. 2:19-20).

E. The principles adopted include spending
quality time in prayers and Bible study with
the souls as led by the Holy Spirit.

F. The Holy Spirit is pleased to increase the
work of grace in a life when our trust and
confidence in God is expressed in the new
convert to suitable and appropriate truths in
the Holy Bible (Acts 2:41-47).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2: As a child of God, how
many souls have remained in the Church as
a result of your follow-up?

SUMMARY: Believers are commanded to bear abiding fruits.

CONCLUSION: Having examined some basic principles, it is only worth it to put into practice all taught in this lesson.

EVALUATION: Why is fruit-bearing a must
for every believer?

CLOSING PRAYER: Father, help me to be
an effective soul winner.

ASSIGNMENT: Students should mention five (5) things they can do to ensure that the souls they have won abide.

7. And he said unto them, What manner of man was he which came up to meet you, and told you these words?

8. And they answered him, He was an hairy man, and girt with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.

9. Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him: and, behold, he sat on the top of an hill. And he spake unto him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down.

10. And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.

11. Again also he sent unto him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he answered and said unto him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, Come down quickly.

12. And Elijah answered and said unto them, If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.

13. And he sent again a captain of the third fifty with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and besought him, and said unto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life, and the life of these fifty thy servants, be precious in thy sight.

14. Behold, there came fire down from heaven, and burnt up the two captains of the former fifties with their fifties: therefore let my life now be precious in thy sight.

OPEN HEAVEN 26 DECEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

I love the Holy Spirit so much. We are in the dispensation of the Holy Spirit so it will be good for everyone to learn about Him. Who is the Holy Spirit? Amongst many others, there are two ways in which the Holy Spirit shows Himself to mankind: one is as wind and the other is as fire.

When He comes as a wind, you can hear and feel it, but every time He is visible to the human eye, He is always seen in the form of fire. On the day of Pentecost, at the upper room, He was seen as tongues of fire (Acts 2:3).

When God spoke to Elijah, it was just after the fire (1 Kings 19:11-12). At the burning bush, Moses saw fire. To get to know the Holy Spirit more, we need to look at the characteristics of fire.

Fire, if not controlled, can destroy. When a man carries the Holy Spirit, he has to always put that fire in check because if not, it can destroy.

In 2 Kings 2:23-24, when Elisha did not yet know how powerful the fire inside him was, some children were mocking him and he cursed them. Out of nowhere, two she-bears came out and killed forty-two of them.

Many years ago, I went on a retreat to recharge my spiritual battery. On my way back home, I decided to stop by to see a friend of mine. When I got to his house, his wife was so excited to see me that she rushed to hug me; as she touched me, the fire hit her and she fell.

Then the husband came too and before I could say anything, he rushed to hug me and fell too. If you carry the Holy Spirit, you have to learn how to control the fire so that it does not put you in trouble.

On the other hand, once in a while, someone who carries the fire of the Holy Spirit and knows how to control it can decide to leave the fire without control when he is angry.

He does not have to say a word, he can just ignore controlling the fire and the result is always terrible. That is why it is dangerous to make someone who carries the Holy Spirit angry.

lf you carry the Holy Spirit, you need to really work on yourself not to get angry easily. What you carry is fire and if you dont put it in check, it can destroy even your loved ones. .

The reason the Lord has not put His fire in many people is that they would cause havoc if they have it. If you want the fire, work on your temper first.

OPEN HEAVEN 26 DECEMBER 2021 KEY POINT:Prayer Points For Open Heavens 26 December 2021

The fire of the Holy Spirit can be dangerous if not controlled.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY GREAT THINGS HE HAS DONE!

1. To God be the glory, great
things He hath done,
So loved He the world
that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an
atonement for sin,
And opened the life gate
that all may go in.

CHORUS
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father,
Through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory,
Great things He hath done.

2. Oh, perfect redemption,
the purchase of blood,
To every believer the
promise of God;
The vilest offender
who truly believes,
That moment from
Jesus a pardon receives.

3. Great things He hath taught us,
Great things He hath done,
And great our rejoicing
through Jesus the Son;
But purer, and higher,
and greater will be
Our wonder, our transport,
when Jesus we see.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 26 DECEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

Some children of God argue that God only looks at the heart and not the outward appearance. They forget that its whats inside that will show on the outside.

For instance, when someone is not mentally stable, he or she will manifest signs of insanity. So also the children of God; the content of your heart will reflect in the way you speak, act and dress. How can you say that you are normal, yet, you wear torn jeans (crazy), crazy hairstyle and sag your trousers?.

What kind of girl puts on a dress that reveals her cleavage or thighs all in the name of fashion? Whoever dresses like that does not fear God at all.

There is a spirit behind riotous dressing of modern teenagers and youths which isn’t the Spirit of God. This indecent dressing has opened up many children to social vices such as incest, prostitution et cetera. May you never be a victim in Jesus name.

When a fellow is born again, there is a transformation that takes place from the inside (heart) and it shows in everything that he or she does; his speech, actions, dressing, et cetera reflect Christ.

Let others see Jesus in you;
Keep telling the story, be faithful and true,
Let others see Jesus in you.

2. Your life’s a book before their eyes,
They’re reading it through and through;
Say, does it point them to the skies,
Do others see Jesus in you?

3. What joy ‘twill be at set of sun,
In mansions beyond the blue,
To find some souls that you have won;
Let others see Jesus in you.

4. Then live for Christ both day and night,
Be faithful, be brave, and true,
And lead the lost to life and light;
Let others see Jesus in you.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 25 DECEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

Jesus Christ is celebrated throughout the world today by those who know Him as well as those who don’t. When man lost the original relationship with God through sin in the Garden of Eden, Jesus decided to leave His glory to come die for mankind in order to restore our relationship with the Father.

He was born of the Virgin Mary so as to take the form of a man who could be touched with the feelings of humanity.

When Jesus was here on earth, He had an outflow of love and compassion for all men, women and children; He was hungry after fasting and praying, was tired, fed the hungry with the word of God and physical food, healed the sick, raised the dead, delivered the demon-possessed, paid tax, and showed the blueprint for others to follow.

He didn’t condemn anyone, rather, He showed them the right way to live. Thus, if you have not accepted Jesus as your Saviour, celebrating Him does not make sense.

First, acknowledge that you are a sinner, confess your sins and repent today. After this, read the Bible and follow every instruction in it.

6. This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.

7. So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

8. And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

9. And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

10. When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

11. She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

OPEN HEAVEN 25 DECEMBER 2021 MESSAGE

Grace, from the Christian point of view is popularly described as unmerited favour. This is because literally, it is kindness of the highest order, and it comes from no other person but the Almighty God.

Noah is a typical example of someone who enjoyed grace, having been spared during the flood, according to Genesis 6:7-8: “And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.”

Another instance of grace in action is the story of the woman caught in adultery. Just as she was about to lose her life for this act of sexual immorality, grace delivered her (John 8:1-11).

The woman was fortunate to have been dragged to the Saviour – Jesus Christ. He said in John 11:25-26 “.. I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die…”

In the course of the trial of this woman in the court of Jesus Christ, grace spoke for her and the Lord asked: “Woman, where are those thine accusers? Hath no man condemned thee? No man, Lord, the woman replied and Jesus said: …Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more…” “John 8:10-11”

Jesus says further in John 8:12 :.. I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. This is grace in action.

The Lord Jesus Christ came to this earth to die for your sins. Remember, even the penitent thief crucified alongside

Jesus Christ also experienced grace; Christ promised to see him in Paradise that same day of the crucifixion (Luke 23:39-43). This is the wonder of the cross grace.

Beloved, you can be a partaker of this grace also, no matter what your current situation is. Even if you are reading this devotional in the prison and have been condemned by the government of your land, do what that thief did: acknowledge your sins, repent of them, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour.

As we celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ today, rest assured that Gods grace is more than enough for you. Hallelujah!

AMAZING GRACE! HOW SWEET THE SOUND

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 hath brought me safe thus far
And Grace will lead us 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. When we’ve been there ten thousand years Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.
