PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE: Leader should ask some members to state some of their visions and their benefits as a reminder of the last lesson.

MEMORY VERSE: “But let him ask in faith nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.” James 1:16

BIBLE TEXT: 1 Kings 18:21-24
[21]And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.
[22]Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men.
[23]Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under:
[24]And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.

LESSON INTRODUCTION: Dancing between two opinions is a common daily occurrence in man’s life especially when his heart is not regenerated. People want to live a holy life but are not ready to pay the price. It is a staggering issue that hinders many people from catching their balance in the journey of life thereby failing to accomplish anything because of divided mind.

LESSON AIM: To make believers understand that leveraging on opinions may cause irredeemable loss of relationship with God and doom to divine assignment.

TEACHING OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, members should be able to know:

  • Why people dance between two opinions.
  • The dangers of dancing between two opinions.

TEXT REVIEW: I Kings 18:21-24
a. Issues of life have made many to dance between following God or doing a quick fix.
b. Until people see the result of your claim of your option, they will not concur to your saying. c. Corrupted minds will request for sign before taking steps or deciding on what to do.
