Topic: HE CAN CONTROL THE UNCONTROLLABLE
Memory Verse: Proverbs 21:1 – The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. Proverbs 21:1
Bible Reading: Psalm 135:1-12
Message: Our memory verse today says that the hearts of kings are in God’s hands and He turns them whichever way He pleases. This should tell you that the greatest connection you can ever have is the one you have to God. If you have God as your friend, anyone you need help from will have no choice but to favour you because their hearts are in His hands.
Many years ago, we wanted to get The Redeemed Christian Church of God registered in a foreign country. Everybody told us that it was not possible as that country does not register Pentecostal Churches. We insisted and asked them to just submit our papers. After some time, we got the registration papers. Some years later, we needed approval for a project and so we applied for it. The government officials then sent us a letter saying that we could not be approved because we weren’t even registered in the first place. We replied that we were registered, attaching our registration papers to the letter and they were all surprised, wondering how we got registered. I was just laughing because my Daddy is the one in control.
I prophesy into your life: wherever it is that you need favour, before the person in power realizes it, he or she would have favoured you already in Jesus’ name.
My God doesn’t only control kings, He controls other things. In Matthew 8:23-27, He controlled a raging storm. In Numbers 22:28-30, He controlled the voice box of a donkey. In Exodus 14:16-28, He controlled the Red Sea and made a path in between the sea for His people to pass through. The Bible says that the whole world is His footstool (Acts 7:49). In other words, you are under His feet. If you submit to His will, He will control things in your favour (Romans 8:28), but if you decide to fight Him, He can control things to go against you. Outside this world, He is also in control of the gates of heaven and hell. If you live holy, He will open the gates of heaven for you to come in but if you live a life of sin, He will shut the gates of heaven and the only other place such a person can go is hell. Which one would you rather go to – Heaven or hell?
Hymn: Now Thank We All Our God
Points: God is the one in control of everything befriend Him today so that all can be well with you.
Bible in one year: Hosea 4, Hosea 5, Hosea 6, Hosea 7, Hosea 8, Hosea 9
Title: Now Thank We All Our God.
Chorus: null.
1. Now thank we all our God,With hearts, and hands and voices
Who wondrous things hath done,
In whom His world rejoices;
Who, from our mothers’ arms,
Hath bless’d us on our way
With countless gifts of love
And still is ours to-day.
2. O may this bounteous GodThrough all our life be near us,
With ever-joyful hearts
And blessed peace to cheer us,
And keep us in his grace
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next
3. All praise and thanks to GodThe father now be given,
The son and Him who reigns
With Them in highest heaven
The one, Eternal God,
Whom earth and heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now
And shall be evermore.
