SUNDAY SCHOOL HYMN
1. O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
O how I love Thee well,
I am happy, it makes me glad
To rejoice at Thy birth.
2. O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Thy friend friendship suits me well,
Both young and will sing Thy song,
We long for Sunday School.
3. O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Christ was Thy first teacher,
The Holy Spirit, great teacher,
Does manifest in thee.
4. O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
This testimony is sure,
That God, the Father Almighty,
Poured His blessing on Thee
5. O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Though the sun be so bright,
Or if the clouds be black with rain,
I’ll be in Sunday School.
6. O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
I rejoice to see Thee,
Will thou pass over me today?
Without my being blest?

BIBLE PASSAGE: 1SAMUEL 2:12-17
1 Samuel:2.12
Now the sons of Eli [were] corrupt; they did not know the LORD.
1 Samuel:2.13
And the priests’ custom with the people [was that] when any man offered a sacrifice, the priest’s servant would come with a three-pronged fleshhook in his hand while the meat was boiling.
1 Samuel:2.14
Then he would thrust [it] into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; and the priest would take for himself all that the fleshhook brought up. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.
1 Samuel:2.15
Also, before they burned the fat, the priest’s servant would come and say to the man who sacrificed, “Give meat for roasting to the priest, for he will not take boiled meat from you, but raw.”
1 Samuel:2.16
And [if] the man said to him, “They should really burn the fat first; [then] you may take [as much] as your heart desires,” he would then answer him, “[No,] but you must give [it] now; and if not, I will take [it] by force.”
1 Samuel:2.17
Therefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD, for men abhorred the offering of the LORD. RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL STUDENT’S MANUAL LESSON THIRTY SUNDAY 28TH MARCH 2021

RCCG TOPIC: EMPOWERED TO FACE THE GIANT DIGGING DEEP
INTRODUCTION
God as laid down principles for children upbringing which must not be departed from (2Tim. 2:19). The anger of God kindles upon children who disobey God (Eph. 5:6; Eccl. 10:8). The role of parents is therefore crucial to the fulfillment of God’s plan and purpose for his children (Deuteronomy 6:6-9). While there are records of children raised in godly ways who remained on that narrow path, the Bible also has records of those who departed from the path of truth.
LESSON OUTLINE
1. CHILDREN THAT DEPARTED FROM GODLY UPBRINGING
2. HOW TO AVOID GENERATIONAL DEPARTURE
CHILDREN THAT DEPARTED FROM GODLY UPBRINGING
Biblical examples of children that departed from godly ways include:
1. Samson (Judges 13:3-5; 14:1-3; 8-9; 16:16-17).
2. Hophni and Phinehes; son of Eli (1Sam. 2:12-17, 22; 1Sam. 4:11).
3. Solomon (1Kings 11:4-7; Eccl. 1:1; Eccl.2:10-11).
4. Nadab and Abihu; sons of Aaron (Lev. 10:1; Num. 26:61).
5. Demas (2Tim. 4:10).
HOW TO AVOID GENERATIONAL DEPARTURE
In order to keep our children on the path of righteousness, parents have the following obligations to fulfill:
1. Love God whole-heartedly (Deut. 6:4-6). Have a deep personal relationship with God. You cannot pass on to your children what you do not possess(John 14:21;15:10;John 5:3).
2.Teach your children about God, diligently. (Deuteronomy 6:7-9).If God’s Word is on your heart continually, then you will be talking about it constantly with your children (Proverbs 4:3-4, Ephesians 6:4).
3.You need to answer your children’s questions about God and the Christian life (Deuteronomy 6:20-25; 1Peter 3:15)
4.Focus on obeying and pleasing God only (Deuteronomy 6:17-18) and also train your children, in agreement with your spouse,to please God in all their endeavors.
5.Live out and model godly lifestyle before children (James 5:12;Matthew 5:16-17;Titus 2:7; 1Peter 5:3).
6.Discipline your children in love (Heb. 12:6; Prov. 3:11-12).
7. Inculcate emotional stability but do not indulge your children (Prov. 19:18; Colossians 3:21).
CONCLUSION
To avoid generational departure, live a good legacy for your children.
