�� *_THEME_* : THAT WE MAY BE RICH

�� *_Memorise_* : 2 Corinthians  8:9

"For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich."

�� *_Please_* *_Read_* : John  10:9-11

9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. 

10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

���� *_Bible_* *_In_* *_One_* *_Year_* : Jeremiah 44-46

⛪���� *_MESSAGE_*

As believers, you are to be rich in the blessing and promises of God. You are to be rich in your expectation of eternal life. The Lord Jesus is your Shepherd and He guarantees your protection and your sufficiency.

This is why you must not allow the devil see your life as being vacant. Let him know that you belong to Jesus. Let him know that Jesus is your protector and provider.

The abundance of God is not a function of the economic condition of your country. The security of God has nothing to do with human efforts. All these benefits are part of the riches Jesus gave to you on the Cross of Calvary. But they become activated only when you accept Him as your personal Lord and Saviour.

��_Key_* *_Point_* :

If you don't know your rights, you cannot enjoy them.

*_MY HOPE IS BUILD ON NOTHING LESS_*

1 My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus Christ, my righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.

Chorus:

On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.

2. When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.

Chorus:

3. His oath, His covenant, His blood,
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay.

Chorus:

4. When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.
