REVISION DAY 1
MONDAY 22/05/2017
LESSON 1
GOD: THE OWNER OF ALL
Suggested Hymns: G.H.B. 133, 298
Devotional Reading: 1 Chro. 29:10-20
Topic For Adults: All Belong To God
Topic For Youths: All Things Flow From God
Topic For Intermediates: God Created All Things
Lesson Scriptures: Gen 2:1-7, Ex. 19:2-16; Lk. 19:11-26; Isa. 5:1-7; Rev 22:11-15.
Memory Verse: The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell therein. Ps. 24:1 (NKJV)
SUMMARY
God created all things and all things (animate or inanimate) exist at His pleasure. He owns all resources on earth, underneath the earth and in the seas. He allocates the resources among men and nations purely by His discretion. However, He is fair in the distributions such that no one has any valid reason to complain, grumble, covet or steal. In His own way, He manages all resources – both natural and human. He assesses the works of His hands; He rewards the faithful justly and punishes the deviants harshly. All these He does because He is the Owner of all.
LESSON 2
MAN-STEWARD OF GOD’S POSSESSION
Suggested Hymns: G.H.B: 10, 75.
Devotional Reading: Mk. 10: 17-25.
Topic For Adults: Don’t Boast About Your Possession, They Are God’s.
Topic For Youths: You Are Not Your Own
Topic For Intermediate: Be Faithful
Scripture Lesson: 1 Cor. 4: 1-2, 6-7; 6:1, 19-20; Lk. 19:11-27; 16: 1-2
Memory Verse: Moreover, it is required in stewards that one be found faithful 1 Cor. 4:2 (NKJV)
SUMMARY
It is a high time we changed our mentality about the things we possess. The earlier this is done, the sooner we realise our position as stewards, and the easier we find it to release to the glory of God. Our attitude and action concerning stewardship is what matters, what we do with what we have while we have time to do it is the issue that really matters according to the word of God. God expects your faithfulness as the manager of His possession.
