MEMORISE: Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High: Psalms 50:14
READ: Psalms 100:1-5: 1 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. 2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. 3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. 4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. 5 For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

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).

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,
Our jobs are more than a means of income; they are opportunities to worship and serve God (Ephesians 6:5-8).
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).
As Christ’s ambassadors, we bring His love, truth, and hope to colleagues and clients (Corinthians 5:20).
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. Integrating faith and work reflects the interconnectedness of our spiritual lives and professional roles in Christ.
Workplace ministry can transform lives and communities by addressing spiritual, emotional and practical needs.
Jesus calls us to influence others with wisdom, compassion, and hope (Matthew 5:13-16).
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:
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

TOPIC: MIRACLES
BIBLE PASSAGE: Mark 16:17-20
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. 19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
MEMORY VERSE:
“And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.” Acts 5:12.
INTRODUCTION
Generally, we can say a miracle is an extraordinary event which manifests divine intervention in human affairs. Miracles are unusual occurrences that can only be attributed to the supernatural work of God demonstrating His involvement in the lives of people.
Miracles are essential parts of the Christian faith, which show God’s power and love. In this lesson, we will explore examples of miracles in the Old and New Testaments, distinguish between genuine and fake miracles and emphasise our belief in miracles.
LESSON OUTLINE 1: MIRACLES IN THE BIBLE
A. One of the greatest miracles is God’s creation of the world and everything in it (Genesis 1:1-3; 24).
i. Consider the workings of the brain, the respiratory system, the digestive system, etc. The creature called man is a miracle.
B. Some of the miracles stated in the Old Testament are:
i. The parting of the Red Sea (Exodus 14: 15-16; 21-22).
ii. Provision of Manna and Quail (Exodus 16:4, 15; Psalm 105:40).
iii. Water from the Rock (Numbers 20:2, 6-11).
iv. Sun and Moon’s suspension (Joshua 10:12-14).
v. Fire from Heaven (1 Kings 18:30-39). vi. Daniel’s Lion’s Den experience (Daniel 6:18-23).
vii. Naaman’s healing (2 Kings 5:14), Well in the desert (Genesis 21:14-19).
C. Miracles in the New Testament are performed through human intermediaries such as the apostles, but most significantly through Jesus Christ.
In all the four Gospels, miracles play a critical role in Jesus’ ministry (Mark 1:32-34; 3:7-10).
i. Jesus performs miracles of healing (John 4:46-53).
ii. Provision of food (Mark 6:34-44).
iii. Control over nature (Mark 4:37-39).
D. New Testament miracles consistently display God’s power and either confirm or demonstrate the message of salvation in Jesus Christ (John 11:38-46). However, the apostle John stresses that Jesus did many other things that were not recorded (John 21:25).
CLASS ACTIVITY 1:
Mention any of Jesus’ and His disciples’ miracles you know.
LESSON OUTLINE 2: WE BELIEVE IN MIRACLES
1. There are indeed many fake miracles in our time just as there are several such miracles in the Bible. For instance;
The Egyptian Magicians performed magic to counter Moses’ God-ordained miracle (Exodus 7:11, 22; 8:7, 18-19).
Simon used sorcery to bewitch the whole of Samaria (Acts 8:9-10), etc.
2. However, the same Jesus Christ in the Bible is the same today (Hebrews 13:8), His name still works wonders (John 16:23-24). The same Holy Spirit that worked through Jesus (Acts 10:38) is the Holy Spirit released on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4). We are now in the era of the Holy Spirit and:
i. God’s power is still very much available (John 14:26; 20:22).
ii. Anyone can still experience the power of God today (Acts 1:8).
iii. The lame can walk, and the dead can rise, God can meet our needs if only we call on Him W…. faith (Psalm 65:2; John 16:23-24).
3. There is a satanic agenda to make a mockery of miracles (2 Corinthians 11:14). However as children of God, we still believe in Miracles (Job 5:8-9; Mark 7:27).
CLASS ACTIVITY 2:
Give personal reasons you believe in miracles.
CONCLUSION: RCCG Sunday School Students Manual 9 November 2025
The power of God is still available today, miracles still happen, pray to receive yours (Jeremiah 33:3).
ASSIGNMENT: RCCG Sunday School Students Manual Lesson 10
Mention five (5) miracles you have witnessed in life (2×5=10 Marks).

Generally, we can say a miracle is an extraordinary event which manifests divine intervention in human affairs. Miracles are unusual occurrences that can only be attributed to the supernatural work of God demonstrating His involvement in the lives of people. Miracles are essential parts of the Christian faith, which show God’s power and love. In this lesson, we will explore examples of miracles in the Old and New Testaments, distinguish between genuine and fake miracles and emphasise our belief in miracles.

LESSON OUTLINE 1: MIRACLES IN THE BIBLE
A. One of the greatest miracles is God’s creation of the world and everything in it (Genesis 1:1-3; 24).
i. Consider the workings of the brain, the respiratory system, the digestive system, etc. The creature called man is a miracle.
B. Some of the miracles stated in the Old Testament are:
i. The parting of the Red Sea (Exodus 14: 15-16; 21-22).
ii. Provision of Manna and Quail (Exodus 16:4, 15; Psalm 105:40).
iii. Water from the Rock (Numbers 20:2, 6-11).
iv. Sun and Moon’s suspension (Joshua 10:12-14).
v. Fire from Heaven (1 Kings 18:30-39). vi. Daniel’s Lion’s Den experience (Daniel 6:18-23).
vii. Naaman’s healing (2 Kings 5:14), Well in the desert (Genesis 21:14-19).
C. Miracles in the New Testament are performed through human intermediaries such as the apostles, but most significantly through Jesus Christ.
In all the four Gospels, miracles play a critical role in Jesus’ ministry (Mark 1:32-34; 3:7-10).
i. Jesus performs miracles of healing (John 4:46-53).
ii. Provision of food (Mark 6:34-44).
iii. Control over nature (Mark 4:37-39).
D. New Testament miracles consistently display God’s power and either confirm or demonstrate the message of salvation in Jesus Christ (John 11:38-46). However, the apostle John stresses that Jesus did many other things that were not recorded (John 21:25).
CLASS ACTIVITY 1:
Mention any of Jesus’ and His disciples’ miracles you know.
LESSON OUTLINE 2: WE BELIEVE IN MIRACLES
1. There are indeed many fake miracles in our time just as there are several such miracles in the Bible. For instance;
The Egyptian Magicians performed magic to counter Moses’ God-ordained miracle (Exodus 7:11, 22; 8:7, 18-19).
Simon used sorcery to bewitch the whole of Samaria (Acts 8:9-10), etc.
2. However, the same Jesus Christ in the Bible is the same today (Hebrews 13:8), His name still works wonders (John 16:23-24). The same Holy Spirit that worked through Jesus (Acts 10:38) is the Holy Spirit released on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4). We are now in the era of the Holy Spirit and:
i. God’s power is still very much available (John 14:26; 20:22).
ii. Anyone can still experience the power of God today (Acts 1:8).
iii. The lame can walk, and the dead can rise, God can meet our needs if only we call on Him W…. faith (Psalm 65:2; John 16:23-24).
3. There is a satanic agenda to make a mockery of miracles (2 Corinthians 11:14). However as children of God, we still believe in Miracles (Job 5:8-9; Mark 7:27).
CLASS ACTIVITY 2:
Give personal reasons you believe in miracles.
