BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Leviticus 25, Leviticus 26:1-13, Mark 16:1-20 Psalm 33:1-11
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Corinthians 12:12-27
12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
17 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
19 And if they were all one member, where were the body?
20 But now are they many members, yet but one body.
21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
23 And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
24 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked.
25 That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
MEMORY VERSE:
Ecclesiastes 4:12-“`”And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.”“`
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES:
Team work reduces internal struggles and encourages high productivity.
PRAISE AND WORSHIP
PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
THAT GODLY AND HEALTHY TEAM THAT WILL MOVE YOUR LIFE FORWARD, BE CONNECTED TO IT NOW, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.
The MESSAGE:
In today’s Fire Scripture, the Bible mentions vividly the importance of our relationship one to another in the body of Christ. Verse 27 of it says, “Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.” We are one body different parts functioning as eyes, ears, noses, feet, hands, yet all towards unity of purpose.
An organ of the body, the foot cannot say because I am not the hand, or I am not the body, then I cannot work with others. Such attitudes will reduce the effectiveness of others and thus affect the entire body. That is why the issue of teamwork is very important. God created us to bear one another’s burden and remain in good and loving relationship with each other.
Teamwork is all about different parts of the body working together to benefit the whole. Everyone is uniquely different and with personal strengths and weaknesses. When the parts are used properly, a team can be more capable, more efficient and achieve greater overall success than an individual working alone. The power of teamwork can be seen in nature with migration of geese.
As the seasons change, large flocks of geese migrate by flying thousands of kilometres to their destination. These flocks contain hundreds of birds, each with limited capabilities to go the distance alone. However, if an individual bird decides to make this long journey by itself, in most cases it would undoubtedly fail. Contrarily, when all the birds work together as a flock, as a team, they reach their goal, arriving at their final destination.
As we can see further in 1 Corinthians 12, the Bible says that the body is one and hath many members, and all are members of one body, so also are we, as members of one Body which is Christ. Hence there should be no schism in the body, rather members should have the same mind, caring for one another. I pray that the Lord will give you the grace to be a great team worker, in Jesus’ name.
