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.

BOLDNESS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

BOLDNESS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS  

Proverbs 28:1-7
Devotional:- "The wicked flee when no one pursues but the righteous are as bold as a lion". (V. 1)

  No atom of weakness can overcome the devil. Unrighteousness is his attitude and so cannot confront him (1 John 3:8). It is also important that you realise that we are not fighting against flesh and blood but against forces of wickedness. That is why you cannot afford to be a weak Christian. He who toys with sin will soon face disgrace, so beware. One of the strength you need to put on for victory as a Christian is the boldness of righteousness. God’s word calls it the breastplate of righteousness. This is a strange level of confidence; the scripture says the righteous is as bold as a lion.

The boldness of righteousness is in two dimensions. The first is as a product of faith in God’s word that claims the righteousness which is given to us by God through Jesus Christ. This is not by your own making. God’s word says it is not of works but faith (Romans 3:1-26, 2 Corinthians 5:20). No man can be so right with God, you must learn to put on His righteousness always, and then you are qualified. The second is from obedience to the word of God. When you obey God’s commandment you are entitled to God’s covenant reward (Deuteronomy 28:1).

As a child of God this righteousness gives you strange boldness that no devil can wait for. Arise in this light and be courageous to win

Prayer: Lord, cast on me the breastplate of righteousness

“The level of your strength is known by your Courage”
