MEMORY VERSE: Luke 16:13a “No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the
one, and love the other.”

TEACHER’S OBJECTIVE
Each child should be able to:-
1. Realize that he or she cannot serve two masters.
2. Choose Jesus Christ as his/her master.

CENTRAL TRUTH
You cannot serve two Masters.

INTRODUCTION
You cannot serve God and Money. You must choose whom you will serve either God or money?

PROGRESSION OF EVENTS
1. No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one. And love the other; or else
    he will hold to one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money. Luke 16:13.
2. The Pharisees who heard these things were covetous and they derided Jesus. Luke 16:14.
3. If you justify yourself before men, God knows your heart, what is highly esteemed
    among men is an abomination in the sight of God. Luke 16:15.

LIFE APPLICATION
Money has the power to take God’s place in your life. It can become your master. Money is a
hard master and a deceptive one. Money promises power and control, it cannot deliver. No
amount of money can provide health, happiness, or eternal life. It is better to let God be
your master. His servants have peace of mind and security both now and forever.

MESSAGE OF SALVATION
If you serve money the devil will be your master and you will end in hell fire. But if you serve
God, Jesus will be your master and he would take you to Heaven to be with God forever.

CONCLUSION
Choose to serve God and let Him be our Master.

CHALLENGE
Choose to serve God through Jesus Christ. Do not serve money.
