RCCG JUNIOR ZEAL FOR 2022/2023
AGE 9-12 TEACHER’S MANUAL
SUNDAY 5TH OF FEBRUARY, 2023
LESSON TWENTY THREE (23)
TOPIC: PATIENCE

TEXT: Romans 5:3-4
[3]And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
[4]And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

MEMORY VERSE: James 1:3, “knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience’

LESSON AIM: To let the children know patience is a good attribute.

CENTRAL TRUTH: We should learn to wait on God.

INTRODUCTION: Patience is a virtue.” We’re all familiar with that cliché, and many of us know that patience is listed by Paul in Galatians 5:22-23 as among the fruit of the Spirit. So there’s no disputing that the Christian ought to be patient. An example from the life of Christ illustrates this. Jesus was very patient with his disciples. They were sometimes thickheaded, lazy, selfish, and slow to believe. Even from a merely human standpoint, we can see how frustrating they must have been. How much more irritating it would be for God Incarnate to interact daily with these men. In spite of Jesus’
miracles and words of wisdom, they were focused upon themselves and wavered in their belief about who he really was. To say that was
uncomfortable for Jesus would be an understatement. Notice that Jesus’refusal to complain about his irritating disciples can be described as an exercise of self-control. Surely he would have been justified in blistering them with insults.
