RCCG HOUSE FELLOWSHIP MEMBERS’ MANUAL 10 JANUARY 2021

TOPIC: GOD’S BLESSING IS WITHOUT SORROW

MEMORY VERSE: “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.” – Proverbs 10:22
TEXT: Job 42:12-17
12 – So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
13 – He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14 – And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.
15 – And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
16 – After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons’ sons, even four generations.
17 – So Job died, being old and full of days.
INTRODUCTION: “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.” (Joshua 1:8). From the above underlined quotation verse, ‘good success’ could inferably mean that there are successes; that can be referred as ‘BAD SUCCESSES’ and this cannot come from God.
What is sorrow (as a verb)?
(i) to feel or express grief.
(ii) to feel grief over; to mourn; to regret.
From the aforementioned meaning of ‘sorrow’, God will not give you a blessing that you will regret at the end.
THE ENDPRODUCT OF BAD SUCCESS:
1: It will soon fizzle out with time (the magicians of Pharaoh) – Exodus 7:9-12
2: It cannot stand the test of time (the contest between Elijah and the prophets of Baal). – 1 Kings 18:12-40
3: No peace of mind – Isaiah 48:22; (King Ahab killed Naboth so that he could possess Naboth’s vineyard). – 1 Kings 21:15-21
4: It will disappear when it is needed most. – Acts 16:16-20
5: It could cause you and your family members untimely death (Haman was promoted and the promotion intoxicated him). – Esther 2:21-23; 3:1; 7:6-10; 9:6-10.
BENEFITS OF WAITING ON GOD FOR SUCCESS:
1: The success will be inherited by other generation/s. – Jeremiah 33:17; 1 Kings 9:5
2: The person will eat the good of the land. – Isaiah 1:19
3: Such a fellow will enjoy allround wellness. – Isaiah 10:3
4: The fellow will not sow and another person will harvest it. – Isaiah 65:22
5: God will satisfy them with long life. – Psalm 91:16
CONCLUSION:
There is no shortcut to good success or blessing. If you try any other means for success or blessing, you may not live long enough to tell the story. So, please wait upon the Lord and obey His instructions.
