9 NOVEMBER 2020 MONDAY: CHRISTIAN DISCIPLESHIP II

OPEN HEAVEN 9 NOVEMBER 2020 MONDAY: CHRISTIAN DISCIPLESHIP II

OPEN HEAVEN 9 NOVEMBER 2020 MEMORIZE: And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach. Mark 3:14
OPEN HEAVEN 9 NOVEMBER 2020 BIBLE READING MATTHEW 15:15-20
15. Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.
16. And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?
17. Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
18. But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
19. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies;
20. These are the things which defile a man; but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 NOVEMBER 2020 MESSAGE
Availability is a key element in discipleship. A coach must always be there to answer questions and give advice.
As a coach, you should always answer or return your coachees’ calls.
Find time to be with them, even if it means taking them along with you on trips or to events.
Just make sure you are always there for them.
There are certain things to consider before agreeing to coach and mentor someone.
First, only coach and mentor people whose company you can enjoy.
As we saw in our memory verse today, the first reason Jesus chose disciples was for them to keep Him company, and of course, also to work with Him.
It also shows that Jesus had seen great potential in the disciples and knew that as they worked with Him, they would become better.
Don’t coach and mentor someone in whom you have not seen any potential.
This is because it is that potential that will drive you to make sacrifices for that fellow.
Don’t just coach and mentor someone because he/she is a relative; choose who you coach and mentor carefully.
You should also know that your followers are not slaves.
Others may exploit their followers but as a Christian, you must follow Jesus example.
He washed the feet of His disciples and even told them clearly in John 15:15:
“Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.”
Asides from that being the right thing to do, it will also model humility to them.
However, Christian disciples must not take their disciplers’ humility for granted. Give honour to whom honour is due (Romans 13:7).
Christ’s discipleship model should be the standard for all Christians.
OPEN HEAVEN 9 NOVEMBER 2020 KEY POINT
Adopt Jesus Christs model of discipleship in grooming those the Lord has put in your care.

OPEN HEAVEN 9 NOVEMBER 2020 HYMN
NEARER, MY GOD TO THEE
1. Nearer, my God to Thee,
Nearer to Thee;
E’en though it be a cross
That raiseth me,
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer to Thee!
2. Though, like the wanderer,
The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me,
My rest a stone,
Yet in my dreams I’d be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer to Thee!
3. There let the way appear
Steps unto heaven;
All that Thou send’st to me
In mercy given;
Angels to beckon me
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer to Thee!
4. Then with my waking thoughts
Bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs
Bethel I’ll raise;
So by my woes to be
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer to Thee!
5. Or if on joyful wing
Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upward I fly,
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer, my God, to Thee
Nearer to Thee!
