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.

OBEDIENCE TO GOD

Scripture: Isaiah 48:16-22
Devotional:- "Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: "I am the LORD your God, Who teaches you to profit, Who leads you by the way you should go” (V 17) NKJV

    As we aspire to succeed in life, we need to know that there is a spiritual direction to our lives. This is because we are a spirit man. We are made like God and God is a spirit. He who neglect his spirit will end up governed by a wrong spirit to a terrible end. Obedience to God is being guided by the Spirit.

Obedience to God has to do with our recognizing the importance of God in guiding us to our success (Psalm 23:1). These takes us to the need of we allowing the Spirit of God to govern our spirit. By this, we will live in the fear of God and cultivate our mind to obey what the word of God is saying. The Spirit of God will always lead us to love, to bless and for our favour.

For us to be led by the Lord to our blessings, we need to always acknowledge the Holy Spirit in us (Proverbs 3:5-6). We need to always worship God and pray to him from our heart. We need to regularly meditate on the word of God (Joshua 1:8). That is when our actions can be guided by the Lord. Knowing Bible is not enough, but drinking into the spirit of the word of God. This is what helps us to be able to obey the Lord whenever we are instructed. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to keep a close relationship with you.

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 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.
