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.

JUSTIFICATION

JUSTIFICATION

Romans 2:1-15
Dev:- for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; (v.13)


    Every kingdom citizen must seek to be justified before the Lord. To be justified is to be made right before God. It is only those who are made right with God that can be right before God. If anyone is not right before God, he/she cannot see God. This is the important of justification.

In the Old Testament the children of Israel were justified by obeying the law. And because no one could perfectly obey the law, no one could be justified by the law (Galatians 3:11). If you obey nine out of ten, you cannot be justified and it therefore made it difficult to attain.

The New Testament offers man justification by faith without the law (Romans 3:28). It is by faith in the finished work of the cross. We believe that Jesus died and rose for us. In this we believe if we sin the blood of Jesus cleanses us (1 John 1:7-9). We are justified before God as we accept forgiveness of our sins by our faith on the work of the cross. By this we have peace with God (Romans 5:1). We don't have to go about feeling guilty of sin when we have repented (turn away) from them. As we repent and forsake sin, we receive forgiveness through Christ Jesus. We are justified and made right with God by faith in Christ Jesus. Peace!

Prayer: Lord help me to receive your justification by faith.

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.
