So on Sunday, Reverend continued to share with us on the Stages of Disloyalty

He emphasized on the fact that disloyalty does not happen overnight but it begins when a person develops an independent spirit.

He made it clear that knowing the stages of disloyalty will help check ourselves and detect disloyalty among ourselves/ others.

An independent spirit person becomes so subtle that most people do not recognize it for what it actually is. When a person belonging to a group, ministry or company develops an independent spirit they turn to do the following.

Scriptures: 2Samuel 3:20-27, 2Samuel 18:5-14, 2Samuel 3:26-27, 2Samuel 12:28, Matthew 24:10

Lessons from Independent Spirit:

1. The rules of an organization or a group no longer affect an independent person.

2. An independent spirit person decides to attend meetings he/she feels is important.

We will learn more as we listen to the rest of this powerful sermon. Be bless.

Reverend started sharing with us on sacrifice and in this message he encouraged us to be ready to pay the price of sacrifice by going the extra mile and only by doing so can we become fruitful in:

1. Evangelism

2. Follow up/ invitation of souls

3. Shepherding and

4. Ministerial work

He emphasized on the scripture John 12:23, by explaining to us that the key to fruitfulness/success in the ministry is Sacrifice, Using the parable of the corn of wheat being buried in the soil, and dying it sprouts and bears much fruit than before.

Beloved as we listen to this message about sacrifice which is the key to fruitfulness, may we be prepared to sacrifice for the kingdom of God, Amen.

Previously Reverend has been teaching us on why loyalty is needed in every area of our lives. On today's message he shared with us the Stages of Disloyalty. The following are a summary on this message. Be bless.

Verses: Ephesians 3:10, 2Corinthians 5:13, 2Corinthians 2:11

Lessons:

1. The Bible makes us understand that,the purpose of the church is to show the Manifold wisdom of God.

2. The church is the main institution God created with the aim of fighting against principalities, and evil powers.

3. The devil knows that the church is against him, hence; he uses several tricks on mankind to derail their attention from serving God sincerely. Some of these tricks he uses includes bitterness, hatred, division, jealousy, betrayal etc.

4. The church is a great place to experience the love and joy of God.

A love that constraints us from bad memories and release good atmosphere for worship.

5. May we be known by our love for God and one another, reminding ourselves to the fact that Unforgiveness destroys the church.

Amen.
