TOPIC: DO NOT DESPISE YOUR YOUTH
Text: 2 Timothy 3:15-17
Key Verse: 1 Timothy 4:12 “Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity”.

This text reveals what the scripture produces in a believer. “The man of God” referred to in this text has nothing to do with age. It deals with faith and holiness. As a young man, Timothy was a man of God. As a youth Paul charged him, “Let no man despise your youth that the man of God through the scriptures might be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” One of the prominent persons that worked with Apostle Paul was Timothy and he was a youth. He was a young disciple. Paul makes it clear that when it comes to Christianity, youths are not to be despised. Goliath made that mistake and lost his life. When it comes to Christian service, nobody should despise the youth. The glory of the youth is his strength. Therefore, let no man however old, despise thy youth. Youth, you too must not despise yourself and underrate what you can do for Jesus. Do not think you are incapable of doing some things. You can do great things for Jesus. God chose you as a youth to serve Him.

Paul got a youth for ministry service, as a co-minister with him and working together, they established many churches. There was increase among the believers. Timothy was a disciple, the son of a Jewish woman and that woman believed the gospel of Jesus. Not all Jews believed, but she did. His father was a Greek. Concerning Timothy’s life, verse 2 says that Timothy was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium. The people that saw that young man knew that he was a true Christian, a true believer. The people in that environment said this young man was a believer indeed and recommended him to Paul, affirming that he was fit to go out with him for ministry. Youth, make yourself available as a holy vessel and battle axe in the hands of God.

Thought for the day: God chose you as a youth to serve Him.
Song for the day: My lifetime, I will give God my lifetime
Bible reading for the day:
Judges 20-21; Luke 11:1-28

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...
  REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN. PRAY CONSTANTLY                                                                      FRIDAY 11 MARCH TEXT: Luke 18: 1-7 Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5:17; Pray without ceasing. I wish My children, whilst upon earth, to live more and more with Me in “the heavenly places”. Here, there is no fear or hurry or fret of spirit. I am gratified when you wait upon Me –which waiting I always honour. My thoughts, as you wait upon Me, are impressed upon you: all that I am must be increasingly absorbed by you. It is as you wait upon Me that I give to you that sense of calm assurance which you must carry about with you always. It comes from knowing that everything you have committed to Me is being surely worked out. Yes, immerse yourself in Me –and do ...
