Confirms that she is an early riser (she works willingly with her hands, always willing to get her hands dirty, because she understands that it is her duty to ensure her family is well fed).

COMPLETE IN HIS FULLNESS Part One

1. Every body wants a life of completeness and this is fundamentally why Jesus came to the earth to make us complete and whole. 2. The word complete cannotes fullness, wholeness and totality. So to be complete in his fullness is to be totally formed in him. 3 Christ is the manifestation of God.Phil.2:5-11. 4. Christ is life. Jn10:10 without Christ, life is incomplete. Jn 15:1-5 5.Jesus himself told us that without him we can do nothing, He is our peace, Joy,salvation, health and giver of long life victory etc. A complete woman in his fullness is a woman who has received Grace. The book of John in chapter 1:16-18 says that, of his fullness have we received Grace for Grace. And this is the Grace that makes us complete in him. Phil 2:10 the word "Woman" is five letters and five is the number of Grace. Prov.31:10-31 gave us five attributes of what makes a woman complete in his fullness in the five letter of a woman as stated below: W WINSOME O OBEIDENT M MINDFUL A ACCOMMODATING N NATURE

AUTHENTIC PRAISE AND WORSHIP

PASTOR PAUL ENECHE IN ONE OF HIS BOOK ONCE TAUGHT US THIS: MATHEW 15:8-9 Authentic worship is very important in order to access the presence of God. The anchor Scripture makes us understand that it is possible to offer vain worship; What then is Vain worship? It is the worship that is useless and empty and produces no result. This means that worship or praise is beyond just singing. On the other hand, worship can also be authentic. It is important for us to know what makes praise authentic. Authentic worship or praise is beyond singing; the quality of the voice is not as important as the state of the life that is offering the worship. The meaning is that God sees your heart before he hears your voice. There are deep worshippers of God who do not know the difference between alto, tenor and soprano and bass and there are singers of alto, tenor, and soprano who don't know what worship is. What is so important to God is not musical ability, theatrical ability or ability to dance, jump, sing or clap but the state of our heart with him. What then makes worship authentic and productive? One of them is SOLID CHARACTER. Characterless worship is useless worship. Isiah 43:21 said these people have i formed myself, they shall show forth, not 'sing' forth. so, what your life shows is a higher worship than what your mouth sings. Your character is either bringing God glory or shame. God is interested in whether your life is acceptable before your worship can be acceptable to him. for instance, if somebody serves you food in a plate, you will be interested in the neatness of both the person and the plate in which the food is served. When you offer God worship, He would want to know the kind of vessel that is producing that worship. Authentic praise must come from a solid character because an unrepentant sinner dancing in church is not different from somebody who is dancing in a disco hall. Beloved, watch your character so you can offer quality worship to God. Remember this: God sees your heart before he hears your voice.

CELEBRATING SINGLENESS WITH A DIFFERENCE

ECCL 3:1, 11 Singleness spans the whole of the human race. It is a separate, unique and a whole stage in one's life, at one point in time or the other. We are going to talk about those who are waiting for the day they will walk to the altar and say yes i do. Remember that one day, you will surely give account to God on how you spent your life. There are different causes of singleness: Yet to find Mr. /Miss Right, educational ambition, freedom, sexual challenges, deliberate action, bitter experiences from people, marital pains and chronic illness among other things. ADVERSE EFFECTS OF LONELINESS 1. Problems of Loneliness 2. Loss of self esteem 3. Problem with self 4. Unable to handle emotional issues 5. Others HOW TO HANDLE SINGLENESS (Text: Luke 18:28-32) 1. Do not be subjected to pressure. 2. Stop canopy ministry; ladies don't sell your body. 3. Do not 'box' God out. 4. A broken relationship is better than a broken marriage. 5. Work on your appearance and self esteem 6. Do not covet to marry (prov 14:12). 7. Do not marry to solve problems. 8. Base courtship on the spiritual and not on physical attraction. 9. Celebrate each other. 10. Develop scriptural understanding about marriage. Conclusion Any relationship that does not draw you closer to God must be avoided.

PRESSING FORWARD

MARK 10: 46-52

This is the records the opening of the eyes of blind Bartimaeus by Jesus Christ. The account of this story tells us that Bartimaeus did not allow those with two eyes intact to discourage him from getting help from the person he believed could deliver him. Blind Bartimaeus knew he would be the greatest enemy of himself if he allowed Jesus, whom he must have heard a lot about, to pass without calling his attention to his situation. After all, he was only blind, he wasn't deaf or dumb, he used what he had which is his voice and sight. He shouted louder to the extent that Jesus heard him, and sent for him. This year let nothing hinder you, you must press forward. The irony is that the people who tried to hinder Bartimaeus from getting his miracle were the same people who told him to cheer up because Jesus was calling him. That is why you must not listen to discouragers, mockers, negative people etc the only person you will listen to is the bible (the word of God) Just like David ignored Eliab, his brother, who was making an uncomplimentary statement about his enquiry as regards Goliath on the battle field (1Sam 17:26-30).

You must be determined to receive your miracle. No matter what, You must not stop crying to God until he answers you, until you receive your miracle, until your story changes. You may have been praying over a matter for some years, never give up. Don't be weary in prayer. Trust the lord, Jesus was on his way to the house of the Jairus whose daughter had died but was interrupted by the woman with hemorrhage for 12 years. Unfortunately, while the woman must have been rejoicing over her healing at last, he received a bad news that the daughter was dead."Yourlittle girl is dead. There's no need troubling the teacher now," he was told (luke 8:49) They're in essence saying there was no need for him to cry to the master again: he should accept the condition as his fate. But Jesus heard them and told the Jairus, Don't be afraid just trust me, and she will be alright. Luke 8:50 in the Name of Jesus everything shall be alright for you this year.

HOLY COMMUNION

1 Corinthians 11:23-30

MEMORY VERSE: 1 Corinthians 11:26 '' for as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the lord's death till he come." Christians eat bread and drink wine to remember Jesus death. The holy Communion is also referred to as the Lord's supper. Our Lord Jesus Christ instituted it shortly before his death. he commanded all Christians to gather together regularly to share the bread and wine till he comes back again. The bread represents the body of Jesus and the wine the blood of Jesus. The Holy Communion must be taken in righteousness. The very first Holy Communion was served by the Lord Jesus Christ. This took place during his last evening with his disciples.
