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.

THE LEAST IN THE KINGDOM
Read: Luke 7:19-30 For I say to you, among those born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he” (Vs.28).
Every citizen of the kingdom of God needs to know the value of what heaven and earth sees in us. We are a people that God has invested so much grace upon. The Old Testament saints lived in the time of the law, but Jesus brought grace and truth for the New Testament believers (John 1:17). This is a measure of God’s goodness which cannot be comprehended by human mind.
In the New Testament, grace gives us access to all things in God that we do not deserve. Our redemption was paid for by the blood of Jesus (Revelation 5:9-10). Jesus baptized us with the Holy Spirit and the Spirit dwelt in us to help, comfort and reveal the truth of life to us (John 14:26). We are granted access by the blood which is the life of Christ, into the mysteries of the kingdom (Mark 4:11). The mystery is the truth of the word of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. When God opens the eyes of a believer to see, it becomes possible for him to assess the power of God (Daniel 11:32).
Friend, this is one of the greatest assets we have in God. You can’t know the truth about your situation and still be a victim (John 8:32). Give yourself to seeking the truth by the help of the Holy Spirit and you shall be greater than the forces of life.
Prayer: Lord, help me to walk in the true value of Christ.
“ACCESS TO THE TRUTH BY THE SPIRIT WILL ENTHRONE AND ORDAIN YOU ABOVE TROUBLES”
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.
