PROTECT YOUR HEART  Proverbs 4:20-27 Devotional:- “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life” (V. 23) NLT      Everyone is born with a strength capable of rising to greatness. In every growing child is a seed of greatness. It is this strength that makes the youth so creative and energetic. That is why each young person looks at the future with great hope. The enemy tries to destroy this strength. As strong as many started in life, not many could strike the chord of success because their strength was destroyed.

JOYFUL HEART           

Psalms 63:1-11
Devotional -“My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness, And my mouth shall praise You with joyful lips” (V. 5)



       It is going to be difficult for a sorrowful heart to praise God (Proverbs 25:20). That is why we must always fellowship with the Holy Spirit so that we can always bear the fruit of joy. The reason why many people in Church and even in the music ministry do not always praise God is sorrow. It will be challenging to combine sorrow and praises (Psalms 137:1-6). So, we need a joyful heart to be able to praise the Lord.

     The word of God says, my soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness and my mouth shall praise you with a joyful heart. To maintain a joyful heart, we must allow the Spirit of God to rule over our heart. It is then we can bear joy as one of the fruits of our lives (Galatians 5:22). We must also take pleasure in the will of God and putting our hope in God. Be patient and be satisfied with God. The Psalmist says, my soul shall be satisfied in God.

    Friend, not many things gives us joy in this world. We sometimes put ourselves in sorrow when we don’t have corresponding action of faith with our expectations. Therefore, any time the expected result is not coming, we easily get disturbed. But we are the one who did not act in obedience to God. When our hope and expectations becomes delayed, we become discouraged (Proverbs 13:12). We must be willing to keep a consistent work of faith with the Holy Spirit and with joy we shall be praiseful. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me unending grace for joy

“A JOYFUL HEART WILL EASILY PRAISE GOD”

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.

ONLY THE VICTORS Revelation 21:1-8 Devotional:- “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son” (v. 7) NKJV      In this part of the world, many are not so used to taking responsibility over challenges. Instead of been proactive to foresee and prevent issues, people are used to looking out for whom to blame and who should help out (Proverbs 14:23). It is vivid that we are in a challenging season. It is also clear that we are drawing closer to the end of the age.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
