There are blessings waiting for 2024 but you do need to open the door. Have you open all the gifts that were given in 2023? The greatest gifts do not have to be unwrapped but do require a relationship. John 3:16 reminds us of a Gift that is freely given. This month we want our students to learn about God’s blessings, gifts, and how they can grow in what they know and allow God’s Love to show and grow.
Jan 7 John let everyone know that he was not the One. John did let everyone know about the Lamb of God, the True Messiah. God provided a plan for salvation because He loves me. Matthew 3; John 1:29-36 – John the Baptist had a special mission and God designed us with a special purpose, we need to seek and follow that purpose.
Jan 14 Do you ever wonder about things late at night? That can be a good time to talk to God. He has great plans for you. Don’t hold yourself from the blessings He had for you. Salvation is the beginning of a growing relationship with Jesus that lasts forever. My sins are forgiven because of a gift. Jesus gave the gift of eternal life. John 3:1-21. Nicodemus had questions and Jesus had the answers. Jesus spoke about the transformation that can take place when we allow it to take place.
Jan 21 How do you feel when faced with difficult or impossible task? When you have the right resources and tools the task can be completed in the proper way. The Holy Spirit is given to guide and provide. The Holy Spirit is leading people to open God’s gift of salvation and follow the plan God has designed them for. Matthew 28:16-20, Acts 5:32, John 3:16 – Jesus gave the Great Commission. The disciples did not understand the power they would be given by the Holy Spirit to carry out God’s plan. We are able to get that same connection.
Jan 28 Things may not happen in the way you planned for them. The Holy Spirit can convict me of my wrong actions, desires, thoughts. I can turn from my sinful ways and ask for God’s protection when I trust Jesus as my personal Savior. Acts 16:6-15, John 3:16, 15:26 – Lydia was a God-fearing business woman and the Holy Spirit was at work in her. We each should pray believing that the Holy Spirit helps us tell others about Jesus our Savior who saves us from our sins.
Make sure you are safe in 2024- It is all about the relationship. “There are no if’s in God’s world and no places that are safer than other places. The center of His will is our only safety – let us pray that we may always know it” Corrie Ten Boom
