THE KINGDOM OF GOD: ITS BEGINNING

 

Suggested Hymns: G.H.B. 129, 133

Devotional Reading: Exo. 15:16-18

Topic For Adults: Have Deeper Understanding Of The Kingdom Of God

Topic For Youths: The Kingdom Of God Is Not Eating And Drinking

Scripture Lesson:  Dan. 4:3; Ps. 103:19; 83:19; Lk. 17:20-21; Dan. 7:13-14; Lk. 17:22

 

Memory Verse: For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit (Rom. 14:17) NKJV

 

SUMMARY

                The internal and external kingdom is real. As a member of the kingdom, we have divine agenda and purpose. John the Baptist preached and prepared the people for the imminent coming of the Messiah at His first advent. After Jesus, he laid the foundation of the kingdom and commanded His immediate disciples to carry on the task till He returned. With the disciples’ commitment and effort, they extended the task for the next generation which is ours. It is now our turn to carry on the word with all seriousness needed to prepare the world for the coming of the kingdom.

LESSON 6

PARABLE OF THE SOWER

 

Suggested Hymns: G.H.B. 15, 99

Devotional Reading: Matt. 11:25-26

Topic For Adults: What Is The Condition Of Your Heart?

Topic For Youths: Worldliness Chokes God’s Word

Topic For Intermediates: Allow God’s Word In you

Scripture Lesson: Matt. 13:3-11, 18-23

 

Memory Verse: He answered and said to them, Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given (Matt. 13:11) NKJV

 

SUMMARY

It is insufficient to hear the word of God. The heart that receives the word needs to be well prepared. Some people scream, shout and jump up while listening to God’s word. All these have no indication that the word penetrates into good ground in them. We should receive the word of God with a soft and contrite heart so it can pierce our hearts and impact our lives.
