GREATER NEWS

A MINISTRY OF GEAT SUNDAY SCHOOL

God's WISDOM cannot be Measured!

God created man with an incredible brain to think, and reason. Human Intelligence is a gift from God and human wisdom should never be compared to our creator. IntroducingAI (Artificial Intelligence) is one of the latest technologies in the world. However, while it can be helpful in certain situations, there are concerns that it can be used to usurp God's design/plan and twist it into his own. The Bible tells us to, "See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil." (Eph 5:15-16).AI can be used for evil at worst and for our benefit at best.As followers of CHRIST, we are called to engage the world around us with the unchanging GOSPELmessages of HOPE and RECONCILIATION. We must approachAI with our God-given wisdom in JESUS in name!!!!!AMEN!

Much Love in Jesus' Name!

Greater Recovery Ministry

The Greater Recovery Ministry is an outreach ministry that serves individuals spiritually who are fighting with the psychological, spiritual, and behavioral effects of addictions. Our Goal, through the Love of God, is to help individuals get complete deliverance from all types of addictions. Individuals will be encouraged and supported while in the recovery process. We know that Jesus has the power to set you free from alcohol, drugs, food, gambling, the internet, nicotine, co-dependency, shopping, etc.

The curriculum for the Greater Recovery Ministry is the manifested vision of our Senior Pastor, Bishop LaVelton J. Daniel. He desires to see “All Souls” receive freedom from the “World of Negative Addiction.” The Implementation of the curriculum consists of 12 Godly principles that will be discussed weekly in a support group setting by trained facilitators.

The curriculum for the youth participants will focus on drug prevention and education. If you, a family member, or a friend need support, we can schedule a day and time to meet that's convenient for you.

Please direct all inquiries to In-House Pastor Evangelist Melvina Pounds at melvinalbs@gmail.com

God’s Work Through Women and Youth

Unit 1: Women of Faith

July 7, 2024: LESSON 6: Hannah Commits Her Son to God; 1 Samuel 1:20, 25-28; 2:1-10;

Teacher: Sister Sandra Wyatt“Hannah was chosen by God to display grace and humility in action.” (ref. The Hannah Anointing by Michelle McClain-Walters). Hannah was barren and she desperately wanted a child (a son), so she cried out to the Lord and God answered her prayer. She promised the Lord that if He gave her a son, she would give him back to the Lord for all the days of his life. Hannah’s prayer was answered, and she sang a song of joy to the Lord; “None is Holy as the Lord.” Psalm 37:4 reads “Delight thyself also in the Lord, and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

July 14, 2024: LESSON 7: Esther’s Bold Faith; Esther 3:2-3, 5-6a; 4:7-16; Teacher: Elder Paul McGhee

God used Esther to accomplish an unlikely deliverance for His people from their enemies. During a very pivotal time in history, God used Esther to deliver the Jewish exiles still in Persia from annihilation, orchestrated by Haman all because Mordecai would not bow down or reverence him. Esther made up in her heart and mind that she would go before the King and “if I perish, I perish,” she advocated for her people’s lives. Haman devised an evil plan (Esther 3:2-3, 5-6a). A dangerous plan (Esther 4:7-12). A Godly plan (Esther 4:13-16).

July 21, 2024: LESSON 8: The Deliverance of the Jews: Esther 8:3-8; 9:18-23;

Teacher: Evangelist Mytice Nesbitt - The lesson this week continues in Esther, she went before the King again to request that He would give another letter to reverse what Haman sent out to destroy the Jews. The new letter would permit the Jews to defend themselves against those who would try to kill them. God blessed Esther to find favor with the King, and the children of Israel were delivered from annihilation. God will always provide and make a way for His people, no matter how the enemy tries to destroy us, “no weapon formed against us can prosper.” Keep trusting and walking by faith in the Lord.

July 28, 2024: LESSON 9: A Sinner Serves Christ: Luke 7:36-50; Teacher: Sister Angela Joiner - The Pharisee in our lesson this week had an over-inflated opinion of his value and righteousness and a disparaging view of a sinful woman’s worth. He had his estimation abruptly overturned on both counts by Jesus. (partial reference from Sunday School book). We need to remember that we all need forgiveness from sin and no matter how long we may have been saved, not to judge others based on our righteousness. A Pharisee named Simon invited Jesus to dinner at his house, and Jesus accepted his offer. However, Simon neglected to do what was customary, (1) to provide water for Jesus to wash his feet, (2) to anoint him, and (3) to give him a kiss. A woman, an uninvited guest, identified as a sinner, brought an alabaster box of ointment and anointed Jesus, and she washed his feet with her tears and wiped his feet with her hair.

Book Recommendations

This year our summer quarter in unit one has been about Women in the Bible. “God gave women a prominent place in His plan from the beginning of Creation.” These amazing stories about some of the women in the Bible give us the courage in our ministries to follow and obey the leading of the Lord in our lives. Lesson one was about the creation of woman (Eve) (Gen. 2:18-25); the second lesson (Deborah) (Judges 4:4-10, 12-16); the third, fourth, and fifth lessons (Ruth) (Ruth 1:1-9, 14b, 16; 2:8-18; 4:1-10); the sixth lesson (Hannah) (1 Samuel 1:20, 26-28; 2:1-10); the seventh and eighth lessons (Esther) (Esther 3:2-3, 5-6a; 4:7-16); the ninth lesson (Woman with theAlabaster box) (Luke 7:36-50); tenth lesson (Tabitha) (Acts 9:36-43).

I found some books about Women in the Bible, by author Michelle McClain-Walters. Each teacher did an excellent job teaching the lessons.

1. The DeborahAnointing (“Embracing the call to be a woman of wisdom and discernment”)

2. The RuthAnointing (“Becoming a woman of faith, virtue, and destiny”)

3. The HannahAnointing (“Becoming a woman of resilience, fulfillment, and fruitfulness”)

4. The EstherAnointing (“Becoming a woman of prayer, courage, and influence”)
