Sunday Service (October 21, 2018)- G.A. Coronation Sunday
Thank God for our Girls Auxiliary Coronation Sunday today, where some of our girls got promoted to higher ranks in the Auxiliary, and some to the Lydia Auxiliary. The Word was delivered to us today by the Mrs Bose Oke on the Topic:
STAND OUT AND SHINE
TEXT: 1 TIMOTHY 4:12
12 Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.(NIV)
INTRODUCTION
From the passage
read, the Lord is saying to you all that your age is not a barrier to your
standing out and shinning.
LESSON
The Bible in this
passage says in spite of your young age, you must stand out and shine out in
-
SPEECH. Others may
speak anyhow, but God is asking you to be different. Speak only words that lift
up others not words that bring them down…….
-
LIFE. Live your life
in such a way that the world will see Jesus in you…….
-
LOVE. Though the people of the world are becoming
increasingly self centered, as God’s children, His word for you is that reveal
the love of Christ in your daily life………………
-
FAITH. Others may be
of little faith or of no faith at all, but for you, you must be so full of
faith that you be an example even to other believers……….
-
PURITY. GAs, note.
Purity may no longer be fashionable. It is unfortunate that many young girls
nowadays even boast in their impurity, but it must not be so with you. God is
asking you to stand out and shine, even
in this matter of purity
For you to be able to do these
successfully, you must
Ø
KEEP AN INTIMATE
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD
-
Read your Bibles
daily
-
Pray always
-
Remain active in the
Church
Ø
BE RESPONSIBLE AT
HOME
-
Be obedient to your
parents
-
Help your parents at
home
Ø
DEMONSTRATE
EXCELLENCE IN YOUR STUDIES
-
Be the best possible
in school
-
Don’t be lazy but be
very hardworking (study hard)
-
Pursue your dreams in
life with vigor
TO ALL OUR PARENTS
We must be good role
models to these young girls. When they see
Christ in our lives, they are encouraged to be what God has called them to be
TO THE CHURCH AS A BODY
The Church as a body
should also continue to appreciate these girls and celebrate the virtues of
Christ in their lives.
MAY GOD HELP US ALL TO ALWAYS SHINE FOR HIM IN ALL WE DO. AMEN
PASTOR’S CORNER
Daughters
are like beautiful roses; God fearing daughters are indeed precious gems. Parents
must therefore spare no effort in making gems out of these roses, for they are tomorrow's
'mother of nations.'
Prayer Focus for the
Week
Commit our GAs and LYDIAs into
the Hands of the almighty God. Pray that their purity shall not be soiled by
the devil and God's glory on them shall not be dimmed.
