TOPIC: Dedication (RCCG Sunday School Manual For Young Adults And Youths (YAYA)
MEMORY VERSE: “Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.” – John 4:34 (KJV)
BIBLE PASSAGE: 2 Corinthians 11:22-29 (KJV) (Scroll down for RCCG Sunday School 28 January 2024 HYMN)
22 Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.
23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.
24 Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.
25 Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;
26 In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;
27 In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.
28 Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.
29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?

INTRODUCTION:
Dedication simply means an absolute commitment to a course of life. In religion, it is an act of setting apart or consecrating a thing or being to a deity. Christians are expected to be devoted wholly and earnestly to God and the purpose for which He has called them. Our Lord Jesus Christ was dedicated to His course for a living (John 17:4), and so also were the prophets and apostles of old. You too must prove to God that you are dedicated to Him.
LESSON OUTLINES:
THE CONCEPT OF DEDICATION
THE PRICE AND CHALLENGES
1. THE CONCEPT OF DEDICATION
Dedication is the yearning desire which makes an individual pay the price to do the work of God and their profession perfectly (2 Corinthians 12:15). It keeps someone standing and willing to do more (Ephesians 6:13). Dedication propels a person to pray, watch, fast often and even ‘die daily’ for the sake of Christ (2 Corinthians 11:23, 27). It is the Christian’s wheel of progress that pushes him/her forward in patience till victory (Philippians 3:13-14). It helps an individual to stand out in his/her endeavour (Proverbs 22:29).
CLASS ACTIVITY 1: The class should discuss other benefits of dedication.
2. THE PRICE AND CHALLENGES
Dedication is a vital phenomenon in achieving great success in life. It does not happen overnight. It takes a deliberate effort to become dedicated. Dedication calls for a high degree of self-discipline or self-control. It is to remain on your course even when others quit (1 Corinthians 9:24-27). Dedication keeps a fighter on the firing line or battlefield until battles are won and the person remains steadfast when battles are over (Romans 8:37-39; Philippians 1:27).
However, dedication comes with its attendant challenges. These may include: persecution (Matthew 5:10); envy (Acts 7:9); loss of friends and associates (Matthew 10:22); forfeiture of some pleasures (1 John 2:15-17); pain (2 Corinthians 11:27). Notwithstanding, the rewards of dedication far outweighs its challenges (1 Corinthians 15:58; Revelation 22:11-12).
CLASS ACTIVITY 2: Students should identify five dedicated members in their church and give reasons.
CONCLUSION: Dedication comes with great rewards which can be transgenerational.
QUESTIONS:
What exactly is dedication?
State what it takes to be dedicated.

SUNDAY SCHOOL HYMN
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.
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.
O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Christ was Thy first teacher,
The Holy Spirit, great teacher,
Does manifest in thee.
O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
This testimony is sure,
That God, the Father Almighty,
Poured His blessing on Thee
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.
O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day
I rejoice to see Thee,
Will thou pass over me today?
Without my being blest?
