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.

PEACEFUL BLESSING

Joshua 7:16-26
Devotional:- When I saw among the spoils a beautiful Babylonian garment, two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold weighing fifty shekels, I coveted them and took them. And there they are, hidden in the earth in the midst of my tent, with the silver under it.” (V. 21)

   God demonstrated His mighty power and delivered the children of Israel from the hand of the Egyptians, bringing them to their promise land. But as soon as they took over the promise land, a small nation defeated them in battle and they were embarrassed.

They didn’t know that one man had just wrongly acquired wealth among them which pitched God against them. Then God allowed their enemies to defeat them. When an enquiry was made, Achan was discovered to have taken and hidden what God said they should not touch. He wanted to be smart enough to get rich quick, not knowing that that is the way of destruction (Proverbs 14:12).

Today, the blessing some people are gathering is from the one they have used “bold face” to get. They terrorize others to get wealth. People seem to have taken evil blessing to be a good one. Not many want to labour genuinely to make it. Shrewd people devise ways of defrauding others what they have laboured for. A family or nation who is diligent will enjoys the blessing of God. God’s blessing comes with peace and prosperity. You don’t need to fight anyone to get it. God’s blessing came when you get involved in genuine business that brings a peaceful blessing (Proverbs 10:22). Achan ended up in destruction. Don’t follow such path, face your business with godly wisdom and heaven will prosper you.

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from sinful and deadly blessing.

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.
