DAVID THE YOUTH AFTER GOD’S HEART

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: DAVID THE YOUTH AFTER GOD’S HEART

TEXT: 1 Samuel 16: 11-13
MONDAY AUGUST 1st

Key verse: 1 Samuel 16:7b. For, man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.
David was the youngest of all the children of Jesse, but the Bible shows us that he had a strong will and courage to do anything to please God. His lifestyle shows that he was a youth with humble heart to be in the bush alone keeping the flocks of his father, while the rest are at home. Being a shepherd boy helped to prepare him for the tough challenges in his adult life 
David was a brave warrior who was the least ever imagined to face and defeat the giant Goliath. He refused to be discouraged by his brethren and even King Saul to stay away from this giant who, according to them, has been fighting from his youth. He gave them testimony of how God had rescued him in the past from a lion and a bear that came attacking the sheep in his custody and he had faith that the same God will give this uncircumcised Philistine into his hands, God was moved by this testimony to answer his prayer. The mockery brought to the host of Israel came to an end with the defeat of Goliath. Many of us hide or refuse to share our testimonies so as to honour God, and move Him to give us more. Share your testimonies and put the devil to shame.
It takes the man of high level of humility to descend so low to accepting being an armour- bearer to a king when he had already been anointed as a king. David did. He also accepted playing the harp for King Saul whenever the evil spirit came upon him to get him well. He never showed any sign of protest or resistance. He served with humility. We need to exhibit the exemplary lifestyle of David in all areas of our life and teach our youths and children so. The race to get reach quick through diabolical and dishonest means must be discouraged. 

Thought for the day: For God has not given us the spirit of fear: but of power, and of love and of a sound mind.

Song for the day: The Lord has given us victory we will lift Him higher…

Bible reading for the day: 
Psalms 65-67; Romans 2

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
