(This is just a summary of the Sunday sermon) by Mom Rose
You are so special to God. You must know that. You are very special and God created you for a purpose.
We thank God for the fathers in the church. We always pray that God may raise the fathers in this church. Raise the mothers in this church. This will help the younger ones to follow and to learn God’s way.
I thank God for protecting me all my life. The devil once played with my life like a ball. But I got a goal keeper who took care of me, and that is Jesus. The devil kicked me like a ball (right, left and centre), but Jesus took care of me.
To Hear The Word (Obey the word)
We are who we are today, because of the word. God’s word is our way of life. It directs; it guides; it teaches us how to interact with other people. It is very important to know that, whatever you say with your mouth might create or destroy.
What happens if we hear the word of God. The word of God can come to millions of people, but you may find that only 2 people are helped; only 2 people benefited. Christ gave us the assignemnet to do as the head. He taught us the word. (That’s why he also quoted the word when he was tempeted)
(Testimony of something that happened in the past about the parts of the body) I remember my ex-boss sometimes back. Let me say he was a very naughty boss. One day he drew a picture of a person on the chart. He put all his the parts of the body and also included all the private parts.
He the told us a story. “One day, all these parts of the body debated about their importance in the body of a human being.” He said. “The hand said, ‘I am very important because I get food’, the mouth said, ‘I’m very important because I take the food in’. All the parts boasted, like the tongue, throat, stomach. But when the ‘anus’ started to talk, all the parts said, “Just keep quiet, you are the worse of them all.”
But it said, “When all is done. When all is taken in, I need to be flexible and release all the dirty so that every part of the body stays healthy. Without me, the body cannot function.”
When I sit and think about this, I realise how important each one of us is. No matter what other people say, you must know that you play a very important role in the body of Christ. Some will judge judge you, but you must know that you are very important. The world need you; the church need you.
We all have functions. We don’t need to look down upon ourselves. We all have the role to play as human beings, and our roles are different.
Romans 12:1,2,3,4,5,6
1. And so, dear brothers and sisters,* I plead with you to give your bodies to God. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice--the kind he will accept. When you think of what he has done for you, is this too much to ask?
2. Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will know what God wants you to do, and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect his will really is.
3. As God's messenger, I give each of you this warning: Be honest in your estimate of yourselves, measuring your value by how much faith God has given you.
4. Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function,
5. so it is with Christ's body. We are all parts of his one body, and each of us has different work to do. And since we are all one body in Christ, we belong to each other, and each of us needs all the others.
6. God has given each of us the ability to do certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out when you have faith that God is speaking through you.
The word that was said in Genesis stood in Paul’s life. By human judgment , Paul should not have been an Apostle, by his doings. But God’s word that was said in Genesis stood in Him.
We have authority and power because Jesus conquered for us. We need to be transformed, and our minds be transformed according to what God commands.
If we examine, we will know what God wants. We need to examine certain things. People can attack your flesh, not your soul. Don’t allow the devil any space in your body. Let God be the author and finisher of your life.
God is a perfect creator, and nothing he leaves uncompleted.
The word in Genesis will never change. That word that said, he created man to be like us.
God sent His son to reunite us with God, after disobeying Him.
We all have many members in our body (one) but has many functions. Every part in the body is important.
Romans 8:28
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,[a] who[b] have been called according to his purpose.”
God is so good. God plan even for those whom they were not planned for. The church of Christ need to care for everyone in need.
Thank God for the little you have. There are really people who are in need than you. Some are in cold, but you have a shelter above you.
We have different functions, and each part supports the other. Don’t look down upon ourself.
We need to stick to God’s principles; to guide and to rebuke us. Let those who has that gift do what they are sent to do.
Ephesians 4:
1. Therefore I, a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God.
2. Be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of your love.
4. We are all one body, we have the same Spirit, and we have all been called to the same glorious future.
6. and there is only one God and Father, who is over us all and in us all and living through us all.
7. However, he has given each one of us a special gift according to the generosity of Christ.
(Testimony of what she says to her children; virginity & ear). Virginity only comes once. If you mess with it, you will never get it again.
