STUDENT'S MANUAL ( LESSON:3)
SUNDAY, 17TH SEPTEMBER 2017
TOPIC: THE SECRET PLACE
MEMORY VERSE:
‘’He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most
High shall abide under the shadow of the
Almighty." - Psalm 91:1
BIBLE PASSAGE: Psalm 91:1-16
INTRODUCTION:
The term "secret place" comes from the Hebrew
word "cether" which means "to hide or be
concealed". Other words for secret place include
shelter, covering, or a dwelling place. One who
abides in the secret place of God dwells in an
ascended place of rest, lifted up above
principalities and powers. It is a place of
protection from trouble; where God surrounds
you with deliverance (Psalm 32:7). It is a place
of His holy concealment in all things, where God
reveals heavenly secrets to you.
LESSON OUTLINES
1. How to enter the secret place
2. Benefits of being in God's secret place
HOW TO ENTER THE SECRET PLACE
We can gain access into God's secret place
through a life of holiness (Psalm 15:1-5), praise,
thanksgiving and prayer of faith (Psalm 100:3-4;
Jeremiah 33:3). We must walk away from the
clamour and enticements of the world (1John
2:15). Our hearts must be quiet before Him as
we allow Him investigate those inner thoughts
we reveal to no one else (Isaiah 30:15; Psalm
139:2). To connect with God, we must avoid
distractions (Matthew 6:6; Mark 1:35). We
cannot join God in His secret place unless we
are willing to be transparent and honest with Him
(Psalm 69:5; 139:7). We must not dwell with the
ungodly (Psalm 1:1; 2Corinthians 6:17).
A consecrated and sanctified life is a
prerequisite to gaining access into God's secret
place (Leviticus 20:7; Psalm 24:3-4).
BENEFITS OF BEING IN GOD'S SECRET PLACE
The benefits of dwelling in God's secret place
include:
1. Closer fellowship with God (James 4:.
2. Living a holy life becomes possible (Isaiah
6:1-5).
3. Self-assessment of our faith will be enhanced
(2Corinthians 13:5).
4. Fruit of the spirit takes root and grows
(Galatians 5:22).
5. Our gaze is focused on Christ and things of
eternal value (Matthew 6:19-21; Hebrews 12:2).
6. Divine protection and deliverance (Proverbs
18:10; Psalm 91:13-14).
7. Divine authority and attention (1Kings 17:1).
CONCLUSION:
God wants us to dwell in His secret place; not to
visit. In God's secret place, no evil can come
near us.
