★ MY SERMON NOTES
NDIC/DMO Chapel
Central Business District,
Abuja, Nigeria
19th July, 2017
* Speaker: Mr. Johnson Amadi
* Topic: The Power in Fellowship (3)
* Text: Hebrews 10:24-25 → "And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching."
* There are some 'believers' who are in the habit of staying away from fellowship
→ this should not be so
→ they should be encouraged to be joined together with other believers in fellowship
* Some stay away for many reasons, including the fact that they are not appreciated for their contributions
* NOTE: Every thing Jesus did was in the interest of the public (Acts 10:38), yet He was persecuted and crucified!
→ this did not deter Him from fulfilling His destiny
* You must not emulate those who stay away
★ Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 →"Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up. Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; But how can one be warm alone? Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken."
* There is strength in uniting with others
* There is a limit to what one person can achieve
→ When there is collaboration, fruitfulness is multiplied geometrically
* Do not allow your denominational affiliation or personal sentiments to prevent you from fellowshiping with other believers
