Youthful Devotion

“This is what the Lord says:

“‘I remember the devotion of your youth,

    how as a bride you loved me

and followed me through the wilderness...

JEREMIAH 2:2 

There is no joy without God. There is no peace without God. The Lords calling is daily - It is not once a week, when you are in a good mood or because you are bored - Christ Jesus asks that you seek him in ALL things. He is sovereign over ALL your life.

Enter a daily surrender to his will - Ask not what your Lord can do for you but how you may be of service to your Lord. In obedience and faith he makes you new. Walk in the light all day every day - take the path with Jesus into eternity and let his will be done through you.

The youthful response to the knowledge of the Lord is freely accepted. However, the world is designed to turn your love for God into angst for him. The world is where evil roams freely - Remember - we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places - Ephesians 6:12.

Therefore - to walk the walk of victory we simply take up the Cross of Christ Jesus as he already conquered the enemy. The truth is that the time of the enemy has grown short and therefore the plan of the evil one to reign darkness will be quicker and greater than at any time before - but rest assured in Christ Jesus you are not subject to the evil one as you belong to the Kingdom of Heaven.

Turn your heart to Jesus once more and be renewed new in his love and grace. Let him be the God of your life - the decision maker for which you pass all choice - such that his will of love is victorious through you.
