2017 WEEK 18 BIBLE STUDY AND HOME CELLS

THE CHURCH OF PENTECOST – 2017 BIBLE STUDY OUTLINE
WEEK 18 – SUNDAY MORNING, APRIL 30, 2017.

TOPIC: JESUS, THE TRUE MODEL OF DILIGENCE

Main Text: Mark 1:32-39
Memory Verse: Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in forced labour - Proverbs 12:24

Introduction

Diligence can simply be defined as the “constant earnest effort to accomplish what is undertaken.” It involves the persistent exertion of body and mind. Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ exemplifies this virtue perfectly. As we seek to be an example of Jesus, it is important that we learn from Him in every aspect of our lives. A mature Christian is someone who is a model and a pacesetter; someone who influences others in positive ways according to biblical standards. Our memory verse gives us a hint on what we stand to gain if we are diligent in our work. We live in a dispensation where many people work anyhow as long as they are not found out. In today’s study, we will look at the example Jesus sets for us in working diligently.

Questions for Discussion

1. What did Jesus do in the evening? Verses 32-34
2. What did Jesus tell the disciples when they found Him Verses 37-38
3. How did Jesus work in Galilee? Verse 39
4. What are some hindrances to diligence?
5. What lessons can we learn from Jesus’ attitude to work?

Conclusion

Jesus Christ knew that His mandate was to preach the word of God to His generation. He therefore planned, prepared and executed His plan irrespective of the challenges He faced. He arose very early before sunrise to pray and organize His disciples to preach throughout the whole of Galilee. Historians describe Galilee as a very hilly environment in the time of Jesus. This however, did not deter Him from preaching in the whole land. Today, many Christians give excuses when they are given assignments that require some form of exertion. The task may be from the workplace, Church or even the community. As we learn from our Master Jesus Christ, it is binding on us as believers, to fulfil our tasks and not give excuses. Jesus is indeed a model of diligence and we must seek to be like Him.

THE CHURCH OF PENTECOST – 2017 HOME CELL OUTLINE
WEEK 18 – SUNDAY EVENING, APRIL 30, 2017.

TOPIC: INTERCEDING FOR PEOPLE IN AUTHORITY

Main Texts: 1 Tim 2:1-3; Titus 3:1
Memory Verse: Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good - Titus 3:1

Introduction

Political situations of every nation affect the lives of all citizens. In view of this, Apostle Paul specifically instructs that prayers be made for kings and all those in authority. In countries where there is political instability, Christians also experience challenges and the church suffers. Christians therefore, are expected to exercise their civic responsibilities, respect, obey and pray for political leadership.

Questions for Discussion

1. What did Paul instruct Timothy to do for kings and those in authority? 1 Timothy 2:1-2
2. Why did Paul say we should pray for people in authority? 1 Timothy 2: 3
3. Who are “those in authority” as stated in this passage? 1 Timothy 2:2
4. What do you think will happen if the church fails to pray about political issues?
5. What role can you play in the politics of the nation?

Conclusion

Paul urged Timothy to pray for all people including kings and those in political authority. This is because; it is only then that the nation will have peace. When there is peace in the nation, the Christians can also have peaceful and quiet lives to worship and serve God. If the church fails to pray for God’s guidance and direction in political issues, Christians will also suffer if things do not go well.
