C. LESSON INTRODUCTION: Insurance is a thing provided against a possible eventuality. The Bible makes us understand that safety is of the LORD, Proverbs 21:31. Also, our Bible reading gives us a guide to how to get the supernatural Insurance which is more than any form of insurance than man can provide, Proverbs 5:8.

ii. know that physical insurance can fail.

C. TEXT REVIEW: EPHESIANS 6:16-18

ii. Praying always on every occasion in the Holy Spirit safeguards us from evil activities and demonic roarings.
iii. There should be persistent prayers for christians across the globe.

D. TEACHING METHOD: The leader should use discussion method.

E. TIME MANAGEMENT: Share the teaching time, use suggested time schedule.

LESSON OUTLINE ONE:

PHYSICAL INSURANCE
We see people going about with mobile policemen with AK47 guns and yet still get killed. In 1 Samuel 17:39-51, Goliath trusted in his might, and his military appliances but David trusted in God and got victory with one stone and a sling.
People who put their trust in the hands of men and end up disappointed.

LESSON OUTLINE TWO:

PHYSICAL INSURANCE VERSUS SPIRITUAL INSURANCE
Physical insurance can fail because your life and belongings are in the hands of man and the arm of flesh will surely fail – Psalms 9:10, Isaiah 42:17. While the spiritual insurance depends on the power of your God. The Gid of Israel can never fail. For example, 2 Chronicles 20:15-22. All those who go from one native doctor to another seeking protection where there is no help, at the end, lose everything and end up in hell.

ACTIVITY: Choose to pray for all nations for Christ to reign and declare His peace.

CONCLUSION: God is the only sure protection and safety. It is important to know God and rely on Him for everything, 1 Chronicles 5:20.

PRAYER POINTS
1. Father, give me the grace to be insured by my dependence on You.

2. Father, we put our lives in Your hands, help us to trust in You always.

3. Father, help your church to know You more on a daily basis and trust in You.

4. Father, bless RCCG and make us a people of the true and only living God.

5. Father, please uphold our General Overseer with the right hand of Your righteousness.
