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.

NEVER BE PROUD

NEVER BE PROUD

James 4:1-10 NKJV
But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” (V 6)

    Pride is a sign of selfishness, ego and foolish thought. It is a sign of unbrokenness and rebellion. Pride is simply the display of emptiness. It is only a man who has nothing that tries to prove that he is something. Pride is simply a sign of proving that you don’t need God or that you are more than God.

God treats the proud in a terrible way. No proud person can win in the race of life. Eventually he is going to destroy himself. The moment a man is proud, God will remove his grace from his life. Watch him, falling is close to him, because it takes the grace of God for us to be victorious over the devil in this world.

God’s word says, whoever exalts himself shall be abased (Mark 23:12). That means he shall be made to fall so that he can learn (Proverbs 16:18). When you humble yourself, it makes you enjoy more of His grace. You will also discover that you are performing better when you are humble.

No one can stand to overcome the devil without the backing of God. If you therefore, desire to be an overcomer you cannot stand to be proud. Submit yourself to God, then, you have grace to stand against the enemy and overcome. If you can humble yourself then you are on God’s list of the lifted. Wherever you are today and whatever you have today is small compare to your future in God. Humble yourself that your future will not be destroyed.

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from the spirit of pride

“THERE IS NO LIMIT TO THE LIFTING OF THE HUMBLE’

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.
