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.

LOVING GOD
Matthew 22:34-40 Read: “Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'” (V. 37)
As you are faced with the New Year ahead, there is a need to grow in your relationship with God. The word of God says the path of the just shines brighter and brighter (Proverbs 4:18). One of the ways to grow in your relationship with God, is to love God more than you have loved Him before.
The Bible says, we should love the Lord with all our heart, our soul, and with our entire mind. This means we should grow to live a life of total love for God. Our love to God is evident when we obey His instructions (John 14:23). Our love to God is evident in how much we love each other (1 John 4:8). We can demonstrate our love for God by serving in His kingdom. If we love Him, there will be nothing too big to give for the growth of His kingdom (John 3:16).
Be willing to give your heart to Him (Proverbs 23:26). Be willing to invest time in serving the Lord; be willing to serve in one department or the other in the house of the Lord. Be a soul winner with all excitement. (Proverbs 11:30). This year, He will surprise you with His loving kindness. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, help me to truly live in your love for my life.
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 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.
