RCCG Sunday School STUDENT Manual 1 September 2019 – Lesson 1

BIBLE PASSAGE: Psalm 89:5-7 KJV (RCCG Sunday School TEACHER’s Manual 1 September 2019)

5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.

6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?

7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.

MEMORY VERSE: “After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.” – Matthew 6:9 (scroll down for RCCG Sunday School 1 September 2019 HYMN)

LESSON INTRODUCTION: What does it means to ‘hallow’ God’s name? The word ‘hallow’ is the Greek word ‘hagiography’ which is the word for ‘holy’. ‘Hallow’ therefore means ‘to set apart as holy, to sanctify or to treat as holy. The best modern word perhaps is ‘reverence’. When we pray ‘hallowed be Your name: we are saying let God’s name be holy and reverenced on earth as it is in head end (Ps. 9:1; 89:5); let His name be given the unique reverence that is due His character and nature as the Heavenly Father(Ps. 92:2). It means to ascend to the very heart of God by recognising who He is and what He has done (Ps.136:1-4). We show reverence to God by learning how to truly worship Him (John 4:24).
