RCCG HOUSE FELLOWSHIP MANUAL 21 JULY 2024
TOPIC: HELPING THE YOUTHS TO LOCATE THEIR PATHS TO VICTORY
Memory Verse:
“The glory of young men is their strength, and the reauty of old men is their gray head. ” Proverbs 20:29
Bible Text: Judges 14:1-2
And Samson went down to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines.
2 And he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines: now therefore get her for me to wife.
Lesson Introduction:
John 6:33 tells us that the world is a place of tribulation (troubles and challenges) with assurance of victory because Jesus has paid the price for our victory.
The Bible also tells us that we should be sober and vigilant because our adversary is always on the prowl (I Pet. 5:8). The devil’s assignment is to steal, kill and to destroy – John 10:10.
Parents and leaders, therefore, have the responsibility to teach and guide the youths so as not to fall prey to the antic of the devil.
When youths are victorious, they will be able to fulfill their glorious destinies in Jesus name – I John 5:4.
BE WATCHFUL OF THE PITFALLS (CASE STUDY: SAMSON AND REUBEN
To be watchful of pitfalls is to be on the alert for the possible negative influences, attractions, lust, wolves in sheep clothes, etc. that can lead to errors, mistakes, decisions that can cause harm, failure, reproach, etc
Every youth should ask God to guard their eyes – Psalms 119:37. The Bible admonishes that we keep our hearts diligently to avoid pitfalls Proverbs 4:23.
Samson and Reuben failed to:
i. guard their eyes from women – Job 31;1.
ii. subdue their lust for women – Proverbs 6:25.
iii. honour and obey their parents – Ephesians 6:1-3.
iv. obey the laws of God – Deuteronomy 28:1-2.
v. submit to authority – I Peter 5:5.
TO BE VICTORIOUS… CASE STUDY: DANIEL
For a youth to be victorious, they need to;
- excel in wisdom and understanding.
- study the word of God – Daniel 9:2; Joshua 1:8.
- pray to God daily and always – I Thessalonians 5:17.
- follow divine instructions – Daniel 1:8; Joshua 1:8.
- shun any act of compromising of faith in God – Dan. 6:5,10; 2 Tim. 1:7
- Affect others positively – Daniel 6:25-26; Matthew 5:16.
Activity:
List some benefits of walking in the path of victory as a youth.
SUMMARY:
Victory in life is only assured when we walk in obedience with God. John 15:5. Walking with God involves knowing Him as Lord and Saviour, studying and obeying His Word; praying for direction, assistance and grace.
CONCLUSION: RCCG House Fellowship Manual 21 July 2024
John 16:33 tells us that we will always face challenges in the world but as Christians, we are sure of victory. We must therefore teach and encourage the youths to draw near to God so that He will be with them in their battles – Hebrews 7:25.
