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.

DESTROYER OF STRENGTH

DESTROYER OF STRENGTH

Joshua 7:2-12
Devotional:-“Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies, but turned their backs before their enemies, because they have become doomed to destruction. Neither will I be with you anymore, unless you destroy the accursed from among you.” (V. 12) NKJV

    The God of heaven is great amidst the children of Israel (Isaiah 12:6). This made them conquer their enemies and possess the land of promise. Among other cities, they conquered Jericho (Joshua 6). God promised to be with them all through to conquer all other cities.

With this assurance, they went against the small city of Ai, but they were destroyed and they ran away wondering on the reason God’s strength suddenly disappeared from among them. Joshua sought the face of the Lord and God said: Israel has sinned against Him. Achan had sin the sin of covetousness. This is at the root of the corruption in many nations today

Beloved, sin is a major thing that can destroy God’s strength in your life. Have you noticed a downward trend in God’s presence in your life? Examine yourself, and take away every sin no matter how small. Humble yourself to ask for His forgiveness and you will see yourself bounce back again.

PRAYER: LORD, GIVE ME THE GRACE TO LIVE ABOVE THE SIN OF GREED.

“SIN SAPS STRENGTH”
