Assuredly, 2019 is our year of Reigning in life. Therefore this Sunday school series focused on understanding what and how to reign in life following the God's standard.

Read Romans 5:17 ....reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

A Fantastic Promise

Truly, truly, I say to you, He who believes on Me, the works that I do he shall do also, and greater works than these he shall do, because I go to My Father [John 14:12]
6 January 2019
The fantastic promise for the believer to reign in this life is by the One and only Lord and saviour, Jesus Christ. Romans 5:17
  • Greater works meant primarily more conversions, sharing the good news. Isaiah 61:1-3
  • Because I go to my Father: Upon ascending Jesus would send the Holy Spirit [John 7:39; 16:7; Acts 1:8]. Believers will reach every part of the world with the Word of God.
  • His ascension meant the descent of the empowering Spirit and the inauguration of Christ’s heavenly intercession, thus enabling the church to fulfil its mission of evangelising the world.

Prayer – An Indispensable Ingredient

And whatever you may ask in My name, that I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son [John 14:13 MKJV]
13 January 2019
Believers praying in Christ’ name, works together with Christ’s intercession in heaven and the help of the Holy Spirit, to enable the greater works.
  • Jesus was clearly a man of prayer. Jesus had the habit of regularly spending time alone with God in prayer before embarking on important assignments.
  • Jesus did nothing without hearing from the Father [e.g. John 5:30].
  • Personal fellowship in prayer is also a time to replenish expended spiritual virtue [Luke 6:19; 8:46].
  • ‘Never undertake more Christian work than can be covered in believing prayer’ Alan Redpath
  • Every forward thrust in the church should be immersed in prayer.
  • Jesus secret life of prayer should become our secrete life as well.

In My Name

If you ask me for anything in my name, I will do it [John 14:14 GNB]
To pray in the name of Jesus means to pray ‘by the authority of’ or ‘in harmony with’ or as ‘sanctioned by’ Jesus Christ. We therefore pray in Jesus’ name by His approval.
  • If someone has not acknowledged Jesus as their lord, using the name of Jesus will be futile; they will not have Christ’s authority backing their prayers or request e.g. the 7 sons of Sceva in Acts 19:11-18
  • We are basically given this authority as Christ’s representatives, who are about His business not selfish ambitions.
  • You can't sin and and back it with a prayer in Jesus name. Psalm 66:17-19
  • Ask God to guide you into His will and follow it.
  • It is our responsibility to ask; it is God’s responsibility to accomplish.
  • Believing prayers, through faith in His name accomplishes great things; not our works.
