AS YOUTH ARRIVE PRIOR TO THE LESSON:
Welcome Teacher/Trainers and students. Get ten of the youngest youths to colour the Bible Verse Visual Aids.

1. WELCOME GAMES: (For Junior youth only 10 minutes)
Group Juggle
Have students stand in a large circle with plenty of room between each person. This may be accomplished by having each person grab the elbows of the person next to them and then dropping their arms. Next, have players to toss a soft ball back and forth across the circle in no particular order. After players become accustomed to the flow of the game, introduce a second and possibly third ball into play. Tell students that it is the responsibility of the person throwing the ball to make sure that the receiver catches it. Slow down or speed up the game depending on how well the group is doing.

2. TEAM GAMES: (For Junior youth only 10 minutes)
Split the group into two teams, each with a white board. Give them a word and the team has to guess the word they drew. Tie in themes from the lesson into the drawings .Eg Gossiping. Reading the Bible. Two-edged sword. A horse with a bit in its mouth. Ship with a rudder.

3. ACTIVE PRAISE CHORUS: (10 minutes):
God is so good

4. INTIMATE WORSHIP: (5 minutes)
God is good all the time

Repeat after me: I decree and declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, I am a child of God, I am not a sinner, I am a saint, I am righteous, I am free, I am changed by God, and the Word of God in my heart makes me free, I don’t make myself free, I just live in the Word and bring it inside me, and that Word makes me free. All things work together for my good, because I love the Lord, and I am called according to His purpose. I declare that no weapon that is formed against me will prosper, and I will condemn every tongue that rises up against me. I am the head and not the tail, and I am blessed in my coming in and my going out, my mind is being transformed, to God be the glory ,as I lay my life on the altar of service, I crucify my flesh daily and live for you Jesus.

If you have been sowing a lot of junk, start sowing things that will weed out that junk. And stop sowing the junk, and now you have been set free don’t go back to the junk. Let’s have a time confession to God all the junk in your life.

CLOSING PRAYER: Father God you know that I have sinned, you know what I have struggled with I confess it now, it is sin, wrong, I don’t want any part of it, I need your help the power of the Word to get to work in my life. So I put these principles to work in the name of Jesus. Satan I tell you right now, from this time forward you have no right to bind me, to hook me, to trap me and hold me down, the Lord rebuke you Satan. I command you to stop your lies, take your guilt and condemnation and get out, I receive the joy and peace of God I am the righteousness of Christ, I am not that old person any longer. I am a brand new person washed in the blood of Jesus, strengthened empowered by the Holy Spirit, being filled with the Word of God. I have a new life I am dead to sin, but I’m alive to God, He is going to use me to accomplish big things, I declare myself free from sins, I am pure and holy before the Lord my God, I got a fresh start, things are looking up, I am a different person now, and the Word of God is flushing me out, loosing my bondages forever, in Jesus name. Amen
