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 ANOINTING
James 5:13-18
Devotional verse: “Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord” (v. 14)
In the word of God is the anointing for our healing. The anointing oil is one of the emblems of our faith; it represents the power of the spirit. God’s word says, when someone is sick, let him be anointed with oil and prayer of faith will heal the sick. The oil is an emblem of the Holy Spirit.
As we read in Isaiah 10:27, God’s word reveals to us the mystery of the anointing oil, it breaks the yoke. A yoke is what connect two animals to work together in a farm. The two must go at the same pace and be of the same height. These possess a limitation to individual desire and agenda. The word of God says, it is the anointing that destroys such yoke.
The word of God says to us that Jesus heals by the anointing (Act 10:38). Whatever yokes your body with sickness, affliction or repeated trouble when an anointed minister anoints you with the power of faith, the yoke will be broken. (1 Cor. 3:16). Even when there is no one to anoint you, declare that the power of the Holy Spirit come into the oil and use it to anoint yourself. Surely you shall be free forever in Jesus name. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, I shall no longer be yoked with evil anymore 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.
