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.

WITH GOD AND MEN  

Scripture: Luke 2: 41-52
Devotional:-“And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men” (v.52) NKJV


    Growth helps us to have effective relationship with God and men. Quality relationship is the evidence of maturity. When people can’t manage their relationship either with family, friends or staff, it is because they have not been able to develop maturity in factors of relationship. So, God expect us to grow in relationship.

 We read about the testimonies of Jesus in our scripture today of how He was having favor with God and men. The favor He had with God and man was a product of His quality relationship with them. That is why each of us must also grow in our relationship. 

To grow in relationship with God, is to create time to consistently be with Him, communicating with God in praises and worship, studying His word and asking in prayers. In this, we enjoy grace to obey Him and please Him for our favor (Joshua 1:8). To grow in relationship with people, we must humble ourselves to relate (Proverbs 18:24). We must understand different nature of people. We must learn to endure and tolerate with people. This is when we can grow maturely in relationship. By this, we will be able to walk in favor. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, teach me to relate well in 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

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.
