CONQUERORS AND OVERCOMERS NOW ARE WE

1. Conquerors and overcomers now are we,
Thro’ the precious blood of Christ we’ve victory
If the Lord be for us, we can never fail,
Nothing ‘gainst His mighty pow’r can e’er prevail.

REFRAIN:
Conquerors are we, thro’ the blood, thro’ the blood,
God will give us victory, thro’ the blood, thro’ the blood
Thro’ the Lamb for sinners slain,
Yet who lives and reigns again,
More than conquerors are we,
More than conquerors are we.

2. In the name of Israel’s God we’ll onward press,
Overcoming sin and all unrighteousness;
Not to us, but unto Him the praise shall be,
For salvation and for blood-bought victory.

3. Unto him that overcometh shall be giv’n,
Here to eat of hidden manna sent from heav’n,
Over yonder he the victor’s palm shall bear,
And a robe of white, and golden crown shall wear.

RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER’S MANUAL 8 AUGUST 2021

TOPIC: THERE IS NO PURGATORY

OPENING PRAYER: Father, help me to live my life for you. Let me reign with you after death

BIBLE PASSAGE: 2 Corinthians 5:6-8

MEMORY VERSE: “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgement”. Hebrews 9:27.

LESSON INTRODUCTION: Some church denominations believe that all who die in God’s grace and friendship but still imperfectly purified are indeed assured of their eternal salvation but will undergo the process of purification which they call purgatory, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of.

According to them, Purgatory is also a place or condition of temporal punishment for those who, departing this life in God’s grace, are not entirely free from forgivable faults, or have not fully paid the price due to their
ensgressions. Is this doctrine of Purgatory in agreement with the Bible? Absolutely not!

TEXT REVIEW: 2 Corinthians 5:6-8

LESSON OUTLINES:
LESSON OUTLINE 1: WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT PURGATORY?
The biblical passages wrongly referred to as basis for purgatory are:

i. *1 Cor.3:15; 1 Pet. 1:7*. These scriptures clearly speak about the work that shall stand the test of fire and be rewarded and those that shall not be able to stand

ii. *1Cor.3:11-15*. This scripture supports believers in Christ who make it to Heaven and would be rewarded according to the value of their works.

ii. The Bible mentioned in *Heb. 9:27* that after death comes the judgement. Therefore, the ‘purifying fire” is referred to as the judgement seat of Christ where work will be judged. *2 Cor. 5:10*

iv. The “fire” in this context is symbolic of motive or objectives behind every work of the believers.

v. The sinners will go straight to hell. *Psalms 9:17*. The wicked shall be turned to hell. That is the destination of sinners who refused to repent alive

vi. In the expression, “it shall not be forgiven him neither in this world, neither in the world to come”, the expression “in the world to come”, means among
Jew that, “it will never be done”

vii. God’s wrath shall overtake sinners who refuse to genuinely repent their sins before death. *Psalms 9:17; Matt. 13:49-50*

CLASS ACTIVITY 1: Why do you think that anyone would wish to repent after death?

LESSON OUTLINE 2: DEBUNKING THE WRONG CONCEPT

i. Purgatory like many other heretic belief is based on misunderstanding of the nature of Christ’ sacrifice and of the scripture.

ii. Jesus’ sacrifice for sinners is a once and for all sacrifice. The sacrifice was perfect and absolute. *Heb. 7:27*.

iii. Those who believe in purgatory fail to believe that the work of salvation needs no additional contribution to what Christ has done. *Eph. 2:8-9*.

iv. They fail to understand that there is no need for other cleansing in addition to the one Christ has done with His blood. *1 John 1:7-9*.

v. They fail to believe that praying for the dead for the forgiveness of their sins is baseless because Jesus by His death, has paid the penalty for all our sins. *John 1:1,14*.

vi. Jesus died for our sins and paid the price once and for all. *1 Cor. 15:3*.
vii. Jesus atoned for our sins, therefore, there is no need for any purgatory again. *1 John 2:2; Rom. 5:8; Isaiah 53:5*.

viii. The belief that man would not suffer for his sin after death has no basis in the Bible. It is also contrary to the true biblical teaching on salvation.

CLASS ACTIVITY 2: identify any other wrong teaching which are contradictory to the Bible.

SUMMARY: There is no purgatory for cleansing of sins after death.

CONCLUSION: There is no basis for purgatory in the Bible. Therefore, make your ways right before you die.

EVALUATION: Why is purgatory heretic?

CLOSING PRAYER: Father, set free all your children who have fallen victim of heretic doctrines

ASSIGNMENT: Find reasons why people believe false and heretic teachings.

OPEN HEAVEN 7 AUGUST 2021 MEMORIZE: And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. Luke 22:40

OPEN HEAVEN 7 AUGUST 2021 BIBLE READING LUKE 18:1-8

1. And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

2. Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

3. And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

4. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

5. Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

6. And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

7, And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?

8. I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

Good Morning Beloved, have a blessed Saturday,

DAILY PERSONAL CONFESSION: My labour will never be truncated by any power of darkness. I am going higher and soaring in the direction of greatness. My life is a testimony and I will never gather to mourn or bury anyone in my life on Jesus’ name, Amen.

OPEN HEAVEN 7 AUGUST 2021 MESSAGE

The statement pray without ceasing in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 is not a piece of advice or suggestion.

The importance of this statement is revealed in the words of Jesus Christ to His disciples in our memory verse of today.

Luke 22:45-46 says further: “And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.”

The arm of flesh will always fail according to Jeremiah 17:5. This brings to mind the common saying A prayerless Christian is a powerless Christian.

A life of prayer is indeed a blessed one. In the story of the widow in our text of today, there are many lessons we can learn.

One, the judge avenged the widow of her enemies simply because, by her prayer, she compelled him to.

Two, this woman did not change her prayer – she was consistent in her request.

Many people gamble with their prayer lives, either not knowing or not asking for the specific things they need.

They are unstable like the wave of the sea being driven with the wind and tossed (James 1:6).

James 1:7-8 further says: “For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.”

Such people don’t even know who to give the glory to if or when they get their miracle.

They have alternatives to the miracle-working power of the Almighty, hence, they pray to God, but also seek the assistance of the arm of flesh.

The result of peoples reliance on the arm of flesh is that they fail to ask earnestly and so do not have.

“Ye lust, and have not: ye kill and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.” “James 4:2”

Our Lord Jesus Christ in todays text assures us that our Heavenly Father, unlike the unjust judge, will answer us speedily on one condition: if we will pray in faith and trust in Him.

As you ask in faith today, may you receive blessings beyond your wildest imaginations, in the mighty name of Jesus.

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 Savior 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!

One day a woman came to me asking for financial help. I gave her some money.

The following day someone informed me about a job vacancy and immediately sent for her saying God had answered her prayer by providing her with a job.

To my surprise she refused and said she couldn’t do that type of rigorous job.

Laziness is like a leech; once it gets attached to its host, it feeds on the person and robs him or her of some nutrients.

If you allow laziness into your life, it will rob you of success, progress, wealth and many opportunities.

Poverty, lack, failure and stagnancy will become the friend of anyone who is lazy.

That is not Gods plan for any of His children, however, He does not support laziness.

In Genesis 1:1-31, we see God at work; He worked for six days before resting on the seventh.

If you want to be like your Heavenly Father, you must work. You must be diligent and hardworking because those are the solutions to laziness.

My child, no amount of prayer or deliverance can save a lazy person. In other words, prayer is not the solution to laziness, it is hard work and diligence.

Prayer will not do for you what hard work can.

11, And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

12. And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:

13. And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.

14. And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.

15. And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,

16. And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

17. And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?

18. There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.

19. And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

OPEN HEAVEN 8 AUGUST 2021 MESSAGE

One expectation of the Almighty God is the appreciation of His children for the numerous blessings He bestows on them.

It is unfortunate, however, that humans, from generation to generation have been ungrateful.

They forget the goodness of God soon after receiving His blessings and begin to speak against the Lover of their souls.

James 1:13-14 says: “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.”

After the Lord Jesus healed ten lepers, He expected them to return and say Glory to God in the highest.

To His surprise however, only one of the ten came and He asked “…Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine?, There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger”..

Ingratitude is an act of robbery against God. The greatest danger of ingratitude is the giving of the glory that belongs to God to someone or something else.

This is practical idolatry, punishable for all eternity. In addition, it is dangerous not to be thankful because your joy cannot be full if you are not thankful.

The only person we can consider as having fullness of joy amongst these ten lepers is the one who returned to give glory to God.

Jesus then crowned his healing by saying to him “..Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole” (Luke 17:19).

We must note however, that the first way to show gratitude to God is to accept His offer of salvation which seems free but cost the life of the innocent Son of the Living God.

We must embrace this offer with every sense of gratitude.

Indeed, our acceptance of the lordship of Jesus Christ over our lives is the most profound form of gratitude we can ever express to God.

The Lord bless you as you do so today, in the mighty name of Jesus.

If you have already submitted to His lordship, begin to count your blessings and give Him heartfelt thanks.

To be optimistic means to be hopeful in a difficult situation. In 1 Kings 4:1-34, the Shunammite woman whose only child died in her laps was optimistic to the extent that even when she got to Prophet Elisha, she still said It is well (1 Kings 4:26 ).

God expects every child of His to be optimistic. I always tell my children that my tomorrow shall be alright.

This has proven to be true in my life, yet, I will keep saying it till I see Jesus in glory.

No matter what situation you find yourself in, never give up. Know that your future is great; your beautiful hopes and dreams will come to pass so long as you remain with Jesus.

Never allow worry because when you worry over little things, you will miss out on the big things God is preparing for you.

Matthew 6:25-26 admonishes us not to worry about tomorrow because the God that feeds the birds knows our needs.

So, when worry sets in, praise God instead.

OPEN HEAVEN FOR TEENS 6 AUGUST 2021 MESSAGE

God’s creative ability came to the limelight at creation.

The Bible says God breathed into Adams nostrils the breath of life and man became a living being.

This breathe of God is actually the Spirit of God that can make man replicate His nature here on earth (Job 32:8).

Little wonder Adam and Eve became the first fashion designers ever when they sewed fig leaves together to make aprons (Genesis 3:7).

Also, Noah built a mighty ark based on divine specifications which served as a refuge for those who escaped Gods wrath (Genesis 6:14).

In todays Bible reading, we are told of Bezaleel whom God blessed with outstanding skills in craftsmanship.

Do you know that every child of God has a creative ability?.

The major tool of creativity is imagination or revelation which is given by the Holy Spirit. If you can imagine anything, you can do it.

However, you need to sharpen your mind with the word of God, good books and educative programmes.

You also need to give the Holy Spirit full access in your life. You would then proffer solutions to existing problems and make good inventions.

If you can imagine it, you can do it.

BREATHE ON ME BREATH OF GOD

1. Breathe on me, Breath of God,
fill me with life anew,
that I may love what
Thou dost love,
And do what Thou wouldst do.

2. Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Until my heart is pure,
Until with Thee I will one will,
To do and to endure.

3. Breathe on me, Breath of God;
Till I am wholly Thine,
Until this earthly part of me
Glows with Thy fire divine.

So shall I never die,
But live with Thee the perfect life
Of Thine eternity.
