Scripture: Ephesians 2:10
God has created every believer with a unique purpose and ministry. We are His masterpiece, created in Christ Jesus for the good works He prepared in advance for us (Ephesians 2:10).
Memory verse: “God has given each of you a gift from His great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another.”
1 Peter 4:10 (NLT)
Scripture reveals God as a consuming fire whose presence guides, protects, and empowers His people. In the wilderness, God led Israel through a pillar of fire (Exodus 13:21), reminding them that His presence was with them.
Jesus declares, “I am the True Vine,” revealing that He alone is the source of spiritual life and nourishment. Just as certain parasitic vines choke and drain their host, there are false sources, spiritual and worldly, that seek to draw life away from believers.
Miriam’s story teaches the importance of cooperation in fulfilling God’s purpose. During a dangerous time, when Pharaoh ordered all Hebrew baby boys to be killed, Moses’ mother Jochebed acted in faith by placing him in a basket on the Nile.
Being born again is the beginning of a new life in Christ, not the completion of our spiritual journey.
Kindness is love made visible. Love thinks; kindness acts. Without kindness a fellowship can slowly become a courtroom instead of a refuge, but with it a crowd becomes a family.
If you did not come to church next Sunday, who would notice? God never designed us to grow alone. Fellowship is what happens when people who share Christ begin to share their lives.
