BIBLE TEXT: Luke 19:1-10 (KJV)

1 And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.

2 And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.

3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.

4 And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.

5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.

6 And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.

7 And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.

8 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.

9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.

10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

Open Heaven 5 June 2022 – Teach Them To Seek God

LESSON INTRODUCTION: What was is restitution? It’s a way of returning or retracting what was forcefully taken or wrongly said. Today’s memory verse is explicit on this issue. Zacchaeus was a tax collector, in his line of duty, might have taken people’s properties (those who did not have money or delayed payment) forcefully, and in turned the properties became his own. For the real salvation to come to him, restitution must be done, which he did.

LEADER’S DIARY.

LESSON AIM: To admonish Christians to constantly restitute their ways.

TEACHING OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, members should be able to:
i. know that restitution is very important.
ii. God’s plan for one’s life can be missed because of restitution.

TEXT REVIEW: LUKE 19:1-10.
i. Returning of things collected forcefully.
ii. When you restitute your way, you will be free.

TEACHING METHOD: Use interactive/ discussion method.

TIME MANAGEMENT: Share the teaching time using the suggested time schedule.

LESSON OUTLINE:

THOSE WHOM CONSEQUENCE OF REFUSAL TO RESTITUTE CAUGHT UP WITH IN THE BIBLE.

  1. ACHAN: Joshua 7:19:26. Achan, his family and property were destroyed for late restitution.
  2. DAVID: 2 Samuel 24:14-17. David numbered the Israelites despite warning, the Lord killed seventy thousands people amidst David’s restitution.
  3. JUDAS ISCARIOT: Matthew 27:3-5. Judas returned the thirty pieces of silver he sold Jesus for; he went and hung himself. Late restitution.
  4. ANANIAS AND SAPPHIRA: Acts 5:1-11. They did not have opportunity to restitute their ways.

ACTIVITY: Discuss how we can know that we need to make restitution in any wrong thing we have done in the past before and after becoming a believer?

SUMMARY: As a believer, we need to check our life daily so as to make restitution.

CONCLUSION: Zacchaeus immediately restituted his ways when he got the opportunity to do so. However, Ananias and Sapphira were not given such opportunity. On this note we advise that to be a copycat is dangerous, for you may not know whether your own will catch up with you while others escape it. Please, restitute your ways before it is too late.
