LESSON OUTLINE ONE
THE IMPORTANCE OF LETTING GO
No matter what we are passing through, whether they are personal struggles, family challenges or financial obligations, it’s important to let go and let God – Proverbs 3:5-7. We also need to learn to let go of all cases of unforgiveness because He has promised to take vengeance on our behalf, Isaiah 63:4, Romans 12:19-20.
LESSON OUTLINE TWO
WHAT SHOULD YOU LET GO?
1. Worry, anxiety. Philippians 4:6
2. Pride. Proverbs 16:18
3. Ambition, learn from Adonijah 1 King 1:5-45
4. Tomorrow. Matthew 6:25-34
5. Visions and your plans.
ASSIGNMENT:
1. Kindly check through and see who needs your forgiveness and things you need to forgo.
2. Check the activities to be done for the end of the first quarter and plan ahead.
SUMMARY: Today’s trouble is enough for today, therefore away from damaging issues of life.
CONCLUSION: 1 Peter 5:6-7, we should cast all our cares upon the Lord knowing He cares for us. Also, let us remember that it is His wish, above all things that we should prosper and be in good health, 3 John 2. Remember that only God can help you to picture your future so that you can feature in your future.
