MEMORY VERSE: “And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?” – Genesis 25:32 (KJV)
BIBLE TEXT: Genesis 25:31-34 (KJV)
31 And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.
32 And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?
33 And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.
34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.
LESSON INTRODUCTION: A birthright is the privileges you are entitled to from birth. Esau’s birthright means special inheritance, responsibility and authority that Esau was entitled to as Isaac’s first born which was surrendered to his younger brother Jacob because of food. Losing it may cause your heaven to be closed, and finding it difficult to access divine privileges.
LESSON AIM: To study reasons why birthright as believers should not be sold.
TEACHING OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, members should be able to;
- Know what spiritual birthright is
- Know how to recover the right if it has been lost.
TEXT REVIEW: Genesis 25:31-34
- Sell me this day thy birthright says Esau and with tears he couldn’t recover it.
- Product of error may not be easy to correct with later effort. Hebrews 12:17.
- Any action you take today, has tomorrow’s effects on your plans.
- What you don’t value now, may be the defining factor to your greatness.
