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.

DISCOVER YOUR PURPOSE

DISCOVER YOUR PURPOSE

Ecclesiastes 3:1-11
Devotional:- “To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven” (V. 1)

    All of us on the earth are made by God for a purpose, your vision talked about your assignment but your purpose talked about the reason for your vision. It talks about the motive behind your vision. It talks about the motivation for your running and pursuit on earth. Since it is motive that motivates, then motive must be clear to please the Lord.

The word of God says there is a purpose for all things in the world. It is walking in the purpose that makes life meaningful. It is the purpose of your creation that gives your life a righteous focus for effectiveness. It is your life purpose that makes you please the Lord and enjoy the blessings of righteousness (Psalm 5:12). It is the motive of your purpose that makes your life prepared for eternal reward.

Though our vision i.e. our assignments, business or career differs yet our purpose is the same. It is to become our motive for pursuit. They can be summarized into five statements. We are to do all things to bring Glory to God (1 Corinthians 10:31). We are to support the family of God with all we do (Galatians 6:9-10). We are to Grow the attitude of Christ and behave like him in all we do (1 Corinthians 11:1; Matthew 10:25). We are to do all things to be a blessing (Genesis 12:2-3). We are to do all things to draw others to God (Matthew 28:19). When these become your purpose, your endeavour cannot fail. Every venture will be faced with one challenge or the other. But when your purpose is your focus and your motivation, the Lord will stand by you to give you victory (Romans 8:31). Stop making only material gain to be your purpose, then you will start to fulfil your purpose. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to make my purpose my motive

“YOUR MOTIVE WILL DETERMINE WHETHER GOD WILL BE BEHIND YOU OR NOT”

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.
