RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL STUDENT MANUAL LESSON 12 (23 NOVEMBER 2025)

TOPIC: LAW AND GRACE

BIBLE PASSAGE: Romans 8:2-4

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

MEMORY VERSE:

“For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.” John 1:17.

INTRODUCTION

The law, according to Scriptures, refers to the detailed standard God gave to Moses, beginning in Exodus 20 with the Ten Commandments.

The Law was given to separate God’s people – the Israelites – from the evil nations around them and to define sin (Ezra 10:11; Romans 5:13; 7:7.

LESSON OUTLINE 1: THE NATURE OF THE LAW

1. God gave ‘a law and commandments’ written in a tablet of stone to the Israelites as they journeyed through the wilderness to the Promised Land (Exodus 24:12).

2. The law and commandments were expounded (supposedly by Moses) to include God’s statutes, judgements, testimonies, etc. and written in a book called “The Laws of Moses” to hold the Israelites accountable whenever they disobey God’s commandments (1 Kings 2:3; Matthew 19:7-8).

3. Jesus summarised all the laws to be “love God with all your heart” and “love your neighbour as yourself” (Matthew 22:36-40).

4. God’s commandments are not grievous or burdensome (1 John 5:3) but the nature of sin in man made it difficult for him to comply.

5. The Law was not evil: it defines the condition of a person’s heart (Romans 7:7).

6. The Law exposes the inability of man to obey God’s commandments (Romans 7:14-16).

7. While the Law itself was good, holy and just (Romans 7:12), it was weak in that it lacked the power to change a sinful heart (Romans 8:3; Acts 13:39).

8. We should be careful not to set aside the commandment of God, replacing it with human traditions. (Mark 7:7-9).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1:

Do you think you can keep all the Ten Commandments without defaulting?

LESSON OUTLINE 2: THE PLACE OF GRACE

A. God is full of grace (Joel 2:13):

i. People have always found grace and salvation by faith in God (Genesis 19:18-19).

ii. God did not change between the Old and New Testaments (Malachi 3:6a).

iii. The same God who gave the law through Moses also gave grace through Jesus (John 1:17).

iv. Jesus was born “under the law” (Galatians 4:4-5) and became the final sacrifice to bring the Law tofulfilmentand establish the New Covenant (Matthew 5:17; Luke 22:20).

B. If properly understood, there is no conflict between grace and the Law:

i. Christ fulfilled the Law on our behalf and offers grace through the power of the Holy Spirit, who motivates a regenerated heart to live in obedience to God (Romans 8:1-4).

ii. In place of the Old Testament law and its pen-alty, Christians are under the law of grace through Christ (Romans 6:14; Galatians 3:10-14, 22-28).

C. In this dispensation of grace, God’s commandments remain sacred and to be obedient is to love God (1 John 5:3):

i. Any attempt to obey the commandment through the Old Testament Law will take away the liberty of the believer (Romans 8:1-3). This is because “whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, is guilty of all” (James 2:9-12).

ii. By grace, we can do what is pleasing and acceptable to God (Ephesians 2:7-10). This is why it is an aberration for anyone who is genuinely born-again to habitually and deliberately practice sin (1 John 3:8-9 AMP).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2:

Is there any conflict between grace and the law?

CONCLUSION: RCCG Sunday School Students Manual 23 November 2025

In Christ, we have the grace… resist sin and live holy.

EVALUATION:
Mention two things believers stand to benefit in the place of grace.

CLOSING PRAYER:
Father, give me the grace to follow You till the end in Jesus’ mighty name.

ASSIGNMENT: RCCG Sunday School Students Manual Lesson 12

List the 10 commandments under the two categories of the summary of the whole law according to Matthew 22:36-40 (1×10=10 Marks).

RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL STUDENT MANUAL LESSON 11 (16 NOVEMBER 2025)

TOPIC: WORKPLACE MINISTRY

BIBLE PASSAGE: Acts 9:36-40

36 Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.
37 And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.
39 Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.
40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.

MEMORY VERSE:

“And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men” Colossians 3:23.

INTRODUCTION

Workplace Ministry, also known as Marketplace Ministry, refers to living out a ministry-focused life through everyday work. As followers of Christ, many of us spend more time in the workplace; whether in business, government, education, healthcare, etc.

God’s desire for us is to actively influence and uplift the world around us, serving as His light and ministering right where we are, in the course of our daily routines.

Workplace ministry is about shifting your perspective by viewing your work, in whatever role, as a service to the Lord (Colossians 3:23).

LESSON OUTLINE1: A MISSION FIELD

A. God’s presence is with us in every aspect of life, including the workplace (Psalm 139:7-10). This assurance encourages us to rely on His guidance as we face challenges and seize opportunities at our workplace. Hence,

1. Our jobs are more than a means of income; they are opportunities to worship and serve God (Ephesians 6:5-8).
2. When we view work as worship, even ordinary tasks take on eternal significance, reflecting God’s character through excellence and integrity (Daniel 11:32b).

B. Believers are called to make disciples in all areas of life, including their workplaces (Matthew 28:18-20).

1. As Christ’s ambassadors, we bring His love, truth, and hope to colleagues and clients (Corinthians 5:20).
2. Workplace ministry is about living out the gospel with authenticity and intentionality, letting our faith shine through our actions and relationships.

C. Aligning our work with biblical values requires wisdom (Proverbs 3:13).

1. 1. Integrating faith and work reflects the interconnectedness of our spiritual lives and professional roles in Christ.
2. Workplace ministry can transform lives and communities by addressing spiritual, emotional and practical needs.
3. Jesus calls us to influence others with wisdom, compassion, and hope (Matthew 5:13-16).
4. This was modelled by the early church, which shared resources, served others, and drew people to Christ through love and unity (Acts 2:42-47).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1:

How do you affect others positively in your workplace?

LESSON OUTLINE 2: THE PRINCIPLES

To minister effectively in the workplace, believers must embody their faith through intentional actions and Christ-like attitudes. Here are some key principles:

1. Alignment: Setting goals that align with God’s priorities ensures our work reflects His purposes (Proverbs 16:3). This begins when we surrender to God’s will, allow Him to shape our vision and guide our pursuits toward eternal impact.
2. Intentionality: Sharing the gospel requires purposeful actions, whether through conversations or living out Christ-like virtues (1 Peter 3:15). Intentionality helps us reflect God’s love naturally in everyday interactions.
3. Connection: Building meaningful workplace relationships creates opportunities for positive influence (Proverbs 27:9-10). By fostering trust, offering support, and celebrating others, we open doors to share authentic faith.
4. Integrity: Upholding honesty, fairness, and transparency in all dealings reflects Christ’s character and builds credibility (Proverbs 10:9; 28:18). Integrity allows our faith to shine in the workplace.
5. Guidance: Seeking God’s wisdom through prayer, His word, and wise counsel ensures our decisions and ministry remain effective and agree with His will (Psalm 119:105; Proverbs 11:14).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2:

What are you willing to do differently to win more souls for Christ through your workplace?

CONCLUSION: RCCG Sunday School Students Manual 16 November 2025

Believers should approach the workplace with a sense of mission and use their, unique gifts to glorify God and influence the Workplace for His kingdom.

ASSIGNMENT: RCCG Sunday School Students Manual Lesson 11

Be committed to daily influencing your network for Christ. (No Marks).

TOPIC: BONDAGE BY ASSOCIATION

MEMORISE:
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
Psalm 1:1

READ: Numbers 16:1-3, 28-35
Now Korah, the son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took men:
2 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
3 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, Ye take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and the Lord is among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the Lord?

28 And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the Lord hath sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind.
29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; then the Lord hath not sent me.
30 But if the Lord make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the Lord.
31 And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under them:

32 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
33 They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.
34 And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.
35 And there came out a fire from the Lord, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.

RCCG OPEN HEAVEN 8 FEBRUARY 2025 MESSAGE TODAY

The aroma of food from a kitchen can cling to you such that people will know that you have been to the kitchen. Likewise, when you go to a place where demons operate, they can cling to you. This is why Proverbs 21:16 says that the man who wanders from the way of understanding will remain in the congregation of the dead. Beloved, you should not unwind in nightclubs where devil-inspired music is played, and all sorts of evil things are happening. You would be opening up your heart for demons to come in.

A young fellow once went somewhere he shouldn’t have gone to and came back loaded with demons. He couldn’t sit or stand; he could only lie down like a vegetable. He was brought to the RCCG Headquarters, and when I saw him, I was led by the Holy Spirit to say to him, “l want to pray with you. Kneel.” He said, “I can’t kneel.” I then said, “I command you to kneel.” He replied, “In whose name?” I responded, “In the name of Jesus.” He then said, “That’s different” as he knelt down. I prayed for him, cast the demons out of him, and said, “Get up.” He said, “I can’t stand up.” I replied, “I command you to stand up.” He then said, “In whose name?” I responded, “In the name of Jesus.” He again said, “That’s different” and got up. I then told him, “You can go home, have your bath, and go to work.” He replied, “I can’t walk.” I said, “I command you.” He replied, “In whose name? I responded, “In the name of Jesus.” He walked home by himself and was free from that day on.

Many people are demon-possessed today because they went to the wrong places and associated with the wrong people. When you walk with godly people and constantly engage in godly activities, you are inviting God’s presence to abide with you; when you do the opposite, you are inviting the devil and his demons to fellowship with you. The devil is not a gentleman; he will not leave because you are tired of him or think that his time is up. Wherever he enters, he has a threefold mission; to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10).

Child of God, if you don’t want to be in any form of bondage, flee every appearance of evil (1 Thessalonians 5:22). Don’t entertain the devil in any way (Ephesians 4:27) so you can maintain your liberty in Christ.

KEY POINT:

Check your association; avoid places and people that can lead you into bondage.
