Topic: Great Hope.

Text: Mark 5:1-20; Romans 8:15; 1 Peter 3:15

Memory Verse: 1 Peter 3:15
...sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give and answer to everyman that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear (KJV).


>>Getting Started
Every day, we all come in contact with people who are trapped in prisons is of sin and spiritual darkness. Some were lured by demons of addiction into taking destructive substances such as cocaine, indian hemp, cigarettes, alcoholic drinks, etc; while some were lured into sexual sins of all sorts by demons of lusts. (This is just to mention but a few.) Many of them have tried to break free from their problems, but the devil wouldn't let them. But some don't even know they are in bondage - they have no idea of how different their lives would be if Jesus were at the centre. Yet, Jesus offers hope to all; for He holds the key that sets captives free.

>>Goals

-   To understand the desperate condition of victims of spiritual bondage.

-   To know that only Jesus provides the hope and Power that set spiritual captives free.

-   To know that we can live free from bondage when we put our hope in Him;

-   And we can become a living testimony of His transforming power; and help others find freedom in Him.

>>Conclusion

Nobody is so bad or so good that Jesus can't make obvious change in his or her life. A charged life isn't just about deliverance from destructive Lifestyle; its about receiving Jesus' Power to resist temptations. So, whether He has rescued us from demonic forces or given us the ability to resist those forces, it's His authority that charges us. Our charged lives testify of His Power.

>>Ministry Activity

Jesus has Power to set free. PRAY that He will set free those who are trapped in one form of bondage of another. And also renew your commitment to share Christ with others in need.

Thanks and God bless for Reading the Word. Here are some scriptures that will really help.
