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.

RESPONSIBILITY

Devotional:- “By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren” (V. 16)

    Building a healthy relationship demands that each party is responsible. In a situation where a partner is not responsible, it can frustrate the one that is responsible. This is exactly the way we treat God a lot of time. Man is always discouraged by the devil not to be responsible towards God. Whenever we have needs, we always want God to be responsible towards us, but not us being responsible to God. This is always the bone of contention between man and God. To be responsible is to always carry out part of the relationship deal.

The word of God says, this is how we can know love, because Jesus laid down His life for us. Therefore, we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. To be responsible is to continue to sacrificially take care of each other in relationship. It means, meeting the needs of each other and not expecting one person to meet all the needs. In some cases, one person will be saving his resources for personal goal, while one person takes care of all things for the family. This is what some people call marriage.

Friend, whoever is not responsible is a parasite and a liability. Check your body parts; they are all responsible to each other. Even if your spouse supplies all the things in the house, don’t sit down like that. Make sure you have a great role to play also. Create them if there are none, so that your relationship does not break down because someone is no longer able. Housewife is not equal to idleness. Be wise. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to take my place in my relationship.

“HE THAT PUT IN NOTHING IN ANY RELATIONSHIP WILL NOT GET ANYTHING SERIOUS ON THE LONG RUN”.

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.
