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.

LIVING ABOVE CONFUSION
James 3:13-18 Devotional Verse:-“For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there” (Vs.16)
The kingdom of God is not a kingdom of confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33). One of the greatest troubles in the life of people today is confusion. The goal of confusion is to cripple the mind of a man, prevent him from achieving the will of God for his life and establish hypertension in him.
Confusion is a product of conflicting information accessing the minds of men. Such information usually makes us uncertain about the possibility of our desires. In confusion, one is left with the fear of failure. One is left with the inability to place priority and make decisions. The original source of confusion is the devil. The word of God says, where there is envy and self seeking, there will be confusion. This happens when a someone is no longer patient to observe the divine order or not patience to allow the will of God to be done.
To live above confusion, we must always be focused on the covenant promises of God. We must always be willing to let the will of God be done and not our selfish ambitions. Jesus was almost confused until He said: "Your will be done" (Luke 22:42, Hebrews 12:2). Always acknowledge God to know His will (Proverbs 3:5-6). Pray for His will to be done in your life always. Pray always in the Spirit to receive His direction for your life and you will live above confusion. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, I decree my victory over the spirit of confusion in Jesus' name
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.
