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.

HE CAN SMELL

HE CAN SMELL 

Genesis 8:14-22
Devotional:- “And the LORD smelled a soothing aroma. Then the LORD said in His heart, "I will never again curse the ground for man's sake, although the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done” (V.21) NKJV

    One of the living attributes of God is that He can smell anything. This helps Him to approve and disapprove. This helps Him differentiate things of higher quality from things of lower quality (Genesis 4:4).

After the flood that destroyed the entire people of the earth was subsided, God told Noah and His children to come out of the ark. They came out and they appreciated God for their life. Noah set up an altar and made a sacrifice unto the Lord so that He would remember His covenant. And God smells the sweetness of the sacrifice of Noah. God then made a covenant never to destroy the earth with water anymore.

Do you know that any time you also make a sacrifice unto God either of praise, giving, or service unto the Lord? God always smells the odor of your sacrifices. And by this, He knows whether your sacrifices are of low quality or good quality. That is why you must always give quality praise from the heart, quality offerings, and service to Him. Any time He smells quality sacrifice He will always give a covenant promise. David the king knew how to give quality sacrifices to God. One day David just thought of a sacrifice of building a house for God and God smelled its quality and gave him a covenant of eternal enthronement. Let God smell your sweet sacrifice and you will earn a place in glory

Prayer: Lord, help me to always give quality sacrifices

“GOOD SACRIFICE WILL ALWAYS PROVOKE GOOD BLESSINGS”

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.
