OPENING PRAYER: Father, help my generation not to depart from the ancient landmark of faith and godliness.
MEMORY VERSE: Proverbs 22:28
Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.
BIBLE PASSAGE: 1 Samuel 2:12-17 KJV
12 Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the LORD.
13 And the priests’ custom with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest’s servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand;
14 And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.
15 Also before they burnt the fat, the priest’s servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have sodden flesh of thee, but raw.
16 And if any man said unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and then take as much as thy soul desireth; then he would answer him, Nay; but thou shalt give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force.
17 Wherefore 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 FOR 28TH MARCH 2021
LESSON INTRODUCTION: God as laid down principles for children upbringing which must not be departed from (2 Timothy 2:19). The anger of God kindles upon children who disobey God (Ephesians 5:6; Ecclesiastes 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.
TEXT REVIEW: 1 Samuel 2:12-17
“Now the son of Eli were the sons of Belial”. 1 Sam. 2:12.
TEACHER’S ACTIVITY: Identify five things which they (the priests) did which were clear departure from the custom, of the true priest of God.

LESSON OUTLINE:

LESSON 1: CHILDREN THAT DEPARTED FROM GODLY UPBRINGING
i. Teacher should first explain what “generational departure” means:
a. It is a departure from godly upbringing. 2 Timothy 2:9
b. It is the removal of the ancient landmark which our fathers of faith have set. Proverbs 22:28.
c. It is deliberate refusal to obey the word of God with the attendant consequences. Ephesians 5:6, Ecclesiastes 10:8
ii. Teacher should group the class into five group and distribute to each group the examples of people who departed from godly parents.
iii. Teacher should allow each groups to read the scriptures attached to each name of those who departed from godly foundations and point out their ungodly deeds:
a. Samson (Judges 13:3-5; 14:1-3; 8-9; 16:16-17).

LESSON OUTLINE 2: HOW TO AVOID GENERATIONAL DEPARTURE
Teacher should explain each of the points stated below the students:
In order to keep our children on the path of righteousness, parents have the following obligations to fulfill:
i. 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).
ii. 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).
iii. You need to answer your children’s questions about God and the Christian life (Deuteronomy 6:20-25; 1 Peter 3:15)
iv. 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.
v. Live out and model godly lifestyle before children (James 5:12; Matthew 5:16-17;Titus 2:7; 1Peter 5:3).
vi. Discipline your children in love (Heb. 12:6; Prov. 3:11-12).
vii. Inculcate emotional stability but do not indulge your children (Prov. 19:18; Colossians 3:21).
