RCCG SUPER TEENS ZEAL 2024/2025 EDITION
AGE 16-19 TEACHER’S MANUAL
SUNDAY 8TH OF SEPTEMBER, 2024
LESSON TWO (02)
TOPIC: SANCTIFICATION

BIBLE TEXT: 2 Tim. 2:21, Lev. 20:7-8
2 Timothy 2:21
[21]If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.

Leviticus 20:7-8
[7]Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God.
[8]And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the LORD which sanctify you.

MEMORY VERSE: “Sanctify them by the truth, your word is truth”. John 17:17 (KJV)

LESSON AIM: To teach the children in Christ what sanctification means and how to live a sanctified life.

INTRODUCTION: Every great house has got several vessels of gold, silver, ceramic, wood and earth. Some of these vessels are to honor and some to dishonor irrespective of the make. Only purged (cleaned) vessels are unto honor, sanctified, appropriate for the masters’ use and equally prepared unto good works. Sanctification literally means “to set apart for special use or purpose”, that is to make holy or sacred. Irrespective of how expensive and “good” a vessel may be, if it is not purged (cleaned) it can’t qualify to be set apart. Sanctification demonstrates the urgency to be emptied out of anything that impairs against being a useful vessel for Gods glory. Sanctification is known as the second work of grace in the New Testament. Therefore, the objective of every believer should be to hastily pursue sanctification.

A. WHAT IS SANCTIFICATION?
i) It means to make holy or set apart Exodus 29:44
ii) It is making truly and perfectly what was defiled and sinful Colossians 2:13
It is gradual cleansing from a corrupt nature to a spotless nature John 15:3; Jude 24
iv) It is a progressive work of grace Romans 3:24

B. WHY SANCTIFICATION?
i. God is holy and demands holiness from mankind. 1 Peter 1:16; Lev 20:26
ii. It is the only requirement to see God. Heb. 12:14
iii. It sets one apart for special use. 2 Tim2:21

C. FRAGRANCE OF SANCTIFICATION.
This simply means the lifestyle of a sanctified person
i. To live holy (Leviticus 11:44)
ii. To be bonded to Christ (Romans 8:35)
iii.To walk straight and transparent in all your dealings (Psalm 15:2)
iv. To live by the standard of God’s word (Ps 119:11)
v. To live peaceably with all men (Rom 12:18; Heb. 12:14)

D. BENEFITS OF LIVING A SANCTIFIED LIFE: You enjoy special privileges in Christ such as:
i. A closer relationship with God
ii. Free of accusations Rev 12:10
iii. Being led in all you do Isa 30:21
iv. God reveals secrets to you 1 Corinthians 2:10

E. HOW DOES SANCTIFICATION HAPPEN?
i. Sanctification results from the supernatural presence and power of the Holy Spirit working in a Christian’s life. Gal 5:22-26; Eph. 3:20; 2 Corinth 12:9-10. It requires a change of heart and an alignment of your will with Gods will. Rom. 6:19
ii. By the Word of God. John 17:17,
iii. By the Blood of Jesus. Heb. 13:12,
iv. By chastisement. Heb. 12:10-11
v. By yielding to God. Romans 6:19
vi. By ourselves. 2 Cor. 7:1

CONCLUSION: We have a part in sanctification; our part is seeking out the sin, judging it; casting it away; praying for cleansing; praying for strength to live a holy life. Daily we must appropriate Christ as our sanctification; daily we must claim His holiness, His faith, His love and His grace. The secret of a holy life is the continuous appropriation of the Savior’s holy life. Our degree of sanctification is in relation too rappropriation of the Lord.

PRAYER/AFFIRMATION: Father, I thank you for the work of sanctification in my life through the blood of Jesus. I declare to live holy and my life will be a living sacrifice unto God from this day henceforth.
