CENTRAL THOUGHTTotal Wellbeing is our inheritance in Christ. TEXT: EXODUS 15:26; DEUT.7:13-15; ISAIAH 53:3- 5; 3 JOHN 2. INTRODUCTION:A careful study of the scriptures will reveal that God’s original plan for man is for him to enjoy total wellbeing. Divine healing is God’s intervention where situations and challenges of life speak otherwise. We can boldly say that there is no healing without God’s intervention, whether through orthodox medicine, herbal medication or prayers. It is God’s prerogative to determine the method by whichan ailment could be healed. Some drugs are manufactured from herbs and God created the herbs and specifically said that some of them are for man’s healing. The scriptures contain numerous promises of God concerning healing and a wholesome life for man. Healing is part and parcel of the salvation package procured by our Lord Jesus for us on the cross. He borne our sickness when He died for our sins.In this study, we shall examine among other things how to appropriate God’s promises to bring about our healing and how to maintain a healthy lifestyle. LESSON OBJECTIVESTo Know: How sickness entered the world. That it is God’s will for us to receive healing. The condition that should be met before we can receive divine healing. The hinderances...

CENTRAL THOUGHT Believers should continue in their first Love. TEXT: REV. 2:1-7 INTRODUCTION: It is expected that at the point of giving one’s life to the Lord and accepting Him as personal Lord and Savior, there is a total turnaround in the life of an individual. To most believers, as should be to all, the newfound love and Lord becomes the center of their lives. This drives them with commitment to live, please, and do His biddings. The resulting effect is manifested in the individual’s commitment, dedication, and faithfulness to the Lord. The zeal is subject to dwindle and wane with time.The church at Ephesus started very well. They kept the Christian standard and were zealous for the work of God. However, a time came when they failed to love God above every other thing. They were admonished to return to their first love. In this study, we shall examine very closely this church vis-à-vis our lives with a view to derive some lessons. LESSON OBJECTIVES 1. To know the meaning of the words ‘ first love’ 2. To discuss the marks of a believer who has left his first love 3. To appreciate the possible hope of returning to one’s first love 4. To discuss the implications of...

CENTRAL THOUGHTSoul wining is the Father’s business in which all believers have a share. TEXT: LUKE 2:49; 10:1-11; JOHN 9:4; MARK 16:15-18 INTRODUCTION:“And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?” (Luke 2:49). From the Scriptures, these are the first recorded words spoken by the Lord Jesus Christ. From the onset, He made it abundantly clear that He was here on a mission- to do His Father’s business. From the first opportunity that presented itself, He launched Himself into this task. One may be tempted to ask- what is this business of the Fatherthat was such a consuming passion in His life? It was to bring the message of the gospel to the world; the good news of God reconciling the world to Himself by thesacrificial and substitution death of His Son; to enlist men and women into this business and leave it as a perpetual commission to all who come to believe the message of the gospel. Therefore, as those who have come to embrace the love of God demonstrated in the gospel, we need to see the task of reaching others for God not only as our duty but see it as the...
