Good Evening Brethren,

I trust that this meets you well. Please find attached the outline for this Sunday’s Bible study on “Living Our Lives to Please God“. 

In this study, we find that there are 101 excuses that we can come up with to not live a life of obedience to Christ; Tiredness, weariness, old age, body pains, sickness, worry, fear, anxiety, etc. But if we could put all those things aside, and let the Holy Spirit of God do His work in our hearts, Oh the life of Christ that will flow out of us! 

Key Learning Points:

1. The physical bodies in which we live has its weaknesses, limitations and challenges. But rather than be pre-occupied by those weaknesses, God wants us to live by faith, hopeful, courageous and confident that we will receive new heavenly bodies which God Himself has prepared for us. (v.1-3).
2. Even though our earthly bodies are dying, our spirits should be renewed and increasing day by day, looking forward to being at home with the Lord.The Holy Spirit is the guarantee of this increase! (v.4-8)
3. Regardless of whether we are in this body or not, God wants us to live a life that pleases Him and encourage others to do the same (v. 9-11).

May our hearts be stirred to daily live a life that pleases God.

Regards and God Bless!

Brethren,

How are you? I hope you are well.

Our quarter series continues with the topic: Leaders Transform Lives. And this transformation can be good or bad. But since we are looking at Servant Leadership, it means that we are thinking of positive transformational leadership.

Key learning points from the topic and assigned text are:

1. Effective leadership requires that the leader is about what is best for the people, not to be the center of attention.
2. A leader of God’s people must be guided by God’s agenda, and His goals and objective for the people, not the leader’s agenda or ideas. So, we must ensure the people are being taught God’s statutes and how to live it out from one generation to another.
3. God is the One who transforms. So, a leader must situate his leadership, counsel in the purposes of God and direct those he is leading to God.

See attached outline for your further reference.

May the word of God renew our minds so that we may be transformed more and more into His likeness.
