1. ESSENTIALS IN CHRISTIAN LIFE

2. What is essential? absolutely necessary; extremely important.

3. Essentials Christians must have;

4. 1. Our bible/ The word of God  Hebrews 4:12 KJV For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 1 Peter 1:25 KJV But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

5. 2. Prayer life and fasting Joel 2:12 - Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: Mark 9:29 - And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

6. 3. Servanthood/Ministry 2 Corinthians Chapter 4 verse 6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

7. 4. Unity- “ Hine Ma Tov “  Psalm 133 1-3 33  Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!  2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; 3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

8. 5. HOLY SPIRIT John 14:26 - But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my Name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 16:13 - Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and he will shew you things to come.

9. TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY!
