LESSON INTRODUCTION: Responsibility is an act of being answerable for an act performed or for its consequences. It is the state or fact of having control over someone. Many areas are waiting for believers to take firm responsibilities, At creation, Almighty God gave responsibility to the first family i.e. Adam and Eve i.e. “dress it and keep it’ – Genesis 2:15 and the day they failed on this task, they were cursed and expelled from the garden of Eden – Genesis 3:23.

LESSON OUTLINE ONE
AREAS OF TAKING RESPONSIBILITIES
1.Oneself: You are accountable for your well-being. In 2 kings 13:14, the Bible says Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. Take good care of yourself (health).
2. Family: Each family has responsibilities.
Spouse- Husband is to love his wife and never to treat her harshly nor take advartage of her – Eph. 5:25, Col. 3:19. wife, is to accept the
authority of her husband and submit Eph. 5:22, 1 Peter 3:1. As parents, they are to bring up their children with discipline and instruction.
They must not provoke their children to anger and they must treat them well Ephesians 6:4. If the couple co-operate together, what is not
enough today will become sufficient and even surplus in no time.
3. Financial Planning and Investment: As believers, we are to take responsibility of controlling our financial life, investment will bring future’s laughter. Stop being extravagant, never put your money or resources on what will not yield any profit or future financial freedom.
Wisdom demands that your spending and your savings should be considerable – Proverbs 4:7, 16:8
4. Service to God: Believers are to deplore their physical, spiritual, mental and financial resources to populate God’s kingdom. Pay your
Tithes and Offerings – Malachi 3:8, win souls for God- Mark 16:15, help the helpless- 1 Timothy 5: 16, James 1:27 and invest in growing your local church and bless the servants of God. Philippians 4:16.
LESSON OUTLINE TWO
DANGERS OF NEGLECTING TO TAKE UP RESPONSIBILITIES
(a) Divine Replacement 1 Samuel 15:26,28
(b) Loss of divine presence and relevance. 1 Samuel 16:15
(c) Withdrawal of divine privileges, Genesis 3:24
(d) Walking under Curse. Genesis 3:23
(e) Inability to end well. 1 Samuel 31:3-6
ACTIVITY: Let members define different responsibilities as mentioned above.
SUMMARY: Our Maker has inputted grace of resourcefulness to us as His creation therefore not being responsible is not in His divine agenda.
CONCLUSION: Taking responsibilities is a must to get divine accolades, avoiding responsibility guarantees divine wrath.
