TOPIC: Vengeance Is Mine (scroll down for RCCG House Fellowship 13 October 2019 Anthem)
PRAYER POINT: Father, please avenge over all my enemies and give me a permanent rest (RCCG House Fellowship 13 October 2019)
BIBLE PASSAGE: Romans 12:17-21
17 But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go shew these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.
18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.
19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and there abode.
20 And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s country.
21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.
INTRODUCTION: It is the human nature to always revenge or to give reactions to what people say or do to us especially, when they are hurting. The physical reaction may not deal with the root of the source of the hurt. Most of the time, we may not be in the knowhow of the root of our hurts, but when we surrender the hurt and its source unto God, He knows how to deal with them even beyond our wildest imagination.
MEMORY VERSE: “O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.” – Psalm 94:1
TEXT REVIEW: Romans 12:17-21
i. Never should your actions be a cause to revenge.
ii. Love covers multitude of sin.
iii. Avoid conflict/fight and live in peace with all men.
iv. The battle is of the Lord.
v. God is just and Righteous. You should count on His Judgement.
LESSON OUTLINE
WHY YOU SHOULD ALLOW GOD TO AVENGE YOUR ENEMIES:
1 Every hurt and its root is planned and devised by the devil.
2 The human host used by the devil may be unaware until he/she has been used.
3 God knows and understands the root of all evil devices.
4 God’s action is to deal with the evil and to ultimately put them to shame.
5 God’s action is complete, total and permanent.
6 Human action is from the flesh, temporary and partial.
7 God’s judgement is sometimes arranged to bless or to promote you.
SUMMARY: God’s Judgement can be trusted, never avenge your enemies.
CONCLUSION: Sometimes when you want to revenge, you receive more hurts or injury. So, why not leave the revenge to Him. God sees everything, but we see just a little. Let the One who sees everything take up total revenge against our enemies.
Do not act by yourself or through any other person or means. Let your God arise and let Him scatter His enemies (Psalm 68:1-3), because your enemies are God’s enemies. Exodus 23:22
ASSIGNMENT: Take time to and forgive all your offender even if you have to hand them over to God’s Judgment.
