Memory verse: Gal.6:2
But I have pleaded in prayer for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. So when you have repented and turned to me again, strengthen your brothers.
Text: Gal. 6:1
Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted.
Message:
The biblical standard of handling Christians caught in sin is to be gentle with them and do the restoration and punishment in love, this is because if you are also face with the same temptation you can fall as well, and even if you have pass through such temptation it is God's grace you have received so act as if you're special,you are product of grace.
When Saul sinned God did not give him second chance nor reply the plead of the Man of God on his behalf, but David on the other hand received warning and repented; grace differs; so if you are whole and holy in the Lord by grace then dony ignore non over look the weak,am not promoting sin but the Love of God for the backsliders.
If this is our focus then the Kingdom of God will increase through us, many refused to come back to the Lord after their falling because everyone deserted them.
Note:
Reachout in prayer to a brother,Pastor or friend who is backsliding or has backslided to show them love but be careful.
Prayer:
1. Oh restore all our spiritual giants that are under the chain of the evil ones in Jesus name.
2. Every target against the children of the light be destroyed in Jesus name.
3. Let the light of love shine on the backslided in Jesus name.
