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.

ORIGIN OF SICKNESS
Genesis 3:8-19
Devotional Verse: “To the woman He said: “I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; in pain you shall bring forth children; your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you” (V. 16).
The word “Pain” was mentioned in the bible for the first time in Genesis 3:16. This was when the first affliction of sickness was released on the sons of men. When God made the first man at creation, there was no record of sickness and pain. They were not creatures of weaknesses. They were made to be healthy forever. Don’t forget they were made like God. (Gen. 1:27). God is a healer and He cannot be sick. (Exodus 15:26).
Adam and Eve were made without any fear. The spirit of any affliction could not come near them, even the devil was afraid of them that he has to come through the woman to deceive them to sin against God, it was then, pain began.
Friend, Jesus has come to destroy the power of the curses that inflict man with sickness. (Gal 3:13-14). Jesus carried our sin on the cross and by His strive we are healed. (Isaiah 53:4). It was the word that came out of the mouth of God that releases pain on human. But the devil is taking advantage to continue this till today, even when Jesus has destroyed that spirit. Jesus has come to speak the word of healing into our lives (Luke 7:7, Matthew 5:34). So, sickness has no legal right over your life anymore. Learn to cast the spirit of sickness off your life always. (Mark 16:17-18). And you will be free from sickness. Peace!
Prayer: I reject sickness in my body 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.
