- International Literacy Day
TOPIC - TAUGHT TO TEACH OTHERS
Read Hebrews 5:12-14
12. For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
13. For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
MEMORISE: And you, Ezra, according to your God-given wisdom, set magistrates and judges who may judge all the people who are in the region beyond the River, all such as know the laws of your God; and teach those who do not know them (Ezra 7:25)
EXPOSITION
Literacy is what cannot be done without any forward-looking society, the church inclusive. With this, you are congratulated on the occasion of this year's International Literacy Day, a day normally observed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization [UNESCO].
The main reason you need a pastor is to feed you with the Word of God. God knows that you cannot take your stand in this world of sin without being rooted in the Word. At the same time, God knows that you cannot know the Word without someone standing by you to teach you. That is the reason He speaks through His Prophet Jeremiah, 'And I will give you shepherd (Pastors) according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding' (Jer. 3:15).
Having been fed with the Word of God, your primary role is to impact that knowledge to others who have not known the Word. After Jesus had trained His disciples, He gave them the mandate to go and disciple others (Matt. 28:18-20). Discipleship takes place when the more mature believers take it as their responsibilities to help the less mature believers to grow spiritually. It is spiritual barrenness to be going to Church for years without having stable people you have positively impacted with your spiritual life. Do you have a spiritual father? If Yes, who are your spiritual children? (1 Cor. 4:15).
It may be difficult to take the responsibility, if you have not been properly prepared for it. You had better taken the challenge today and begin to learn, study and meditate on the Word. If your own ear is dull to hear the Word, your life cannot be a blessing to others (Heb. 5:12-14).
PRAYER POINTS
1. Open my ear, O Lord, to clearly hear Your Word as I learn.
2. I refuse to be a spiritually barren Christian in the vineyard of God, in Jesus' name.
3. Lord, help all mature believers to know and exercise their roles in helping others to grow.
