TOPIC: When A Man’s Ways Please The Lord (Scroll down for RCCG House Fellowship 31 January 2021 Anthem)

OPENING PRAYER: Father, please make my ways to please You always.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE: The leader should ask the members if they have started hearing from God.

MEMORY VERSE: When a man’s ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him. – Proverbs 16:7

BIBLE TEXT: 1 Kings 5:1-5 (KJV)

1 And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon; for he had heard that they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram was ever a lover of David.

2 And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,

3 Thou knowest how that David my father could not build an house unto the name of the LORD his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until the LORD put them under the soles of his feet.

4 But now the LORD my God hath given me rest on every side, so that there is neither adversary nor evil occurrent.

5 And, behold, I purpose to build an house unto the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he shall build an house unto my name.

LESSON INTRODUCTION: “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.

Revisiting the memory verse; do you know all your enemies? Or can you explain when and how they afflict or attack their victims? Or can you fight all your enemies? Why don’t you submit to God totally and see what He will do to your enemies. God is omni-potent (all powerful) and He can touch your enemies’ heart one by one so that they will be at peace with you.
