Dear child, you must understand the Father’s love for you. Is there anything or anyone that can separate you from the love of God? Your mom or dad? Siblings or friends? Your face or clothes? An angel? What else can you think of?
News flash! There’s nothing or no one that can remove God’s love for you from Your heavenly father’s heart.
He loves you so much. Remember that He sent His most precious son, Jesus, to come to die for you. How could He now allow something or someone to make Him stop loving you? Not even His angels. You are very precious to Him.
Look at the verse below
“Yes, I am sure that nothing can separate us from the love God has for us. Not death, not life, not angels, not ruling spirits, nothing now, nothing in the future, no powers, nothing above us, nothing below us, or anything else in the whole world will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord”. Romans 8:38 – 39 ICB
This was apostle Paul writing about the impossibility of God to stop loving us. He wrote that no power here on earth, no situation, nothing will make God stop loving us.
When you sin and feel that God will stop loving you or has stopped doing so, read these verses and know that He can never do so.
Ask for forgiveness and receive it with joy. Do not let the devil or anyone tell you otherwise. Your great Father in heaven wants nothing to separate you from Him.
There is a reason you should not be scared. Now, fear is common to everybody. People have fears for animals, places, heights, facing an audience, writing exams, going for an interview, and much more.
The most important thing is to not make our fears cripple us into inaction. That is, do not allow your fears to stop you from doing that which you are supposed to do.
For a child of God, fear is not a problem and shouldn’t be because you have God to pray to.
The psalmist in chapter fifty-six and verse three, tells you how he deals with his fears.
Psalm 56:3 – “When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.”
When you are afraid, trust in God. Why do you do so? God is powerful, strong, reliable, capable, can do, knows, and sees all things.
He is the perfect person that can help you handle your fears. Out of the abundance of His person and power, He will provide you with the solutions to your problems.
Be like the psalmist and trust in the Lord when you are afraid. Do not be scared. May the Lord answer you when you call. Amen.
Prayer: Lord, I put my trust in You when I am afraid.
Action point: Remember to call on God when you re afraid.
This is a psalm that we can declare over our children every now and then – that our children are divinely protected.
The world is full of evil and as Christians, we are supposed to be battle ready.
This psalms is a psalm of protection to guide out children in their daily affairs.
From time to time, the devil attacks us with fear. Fear of the future, fear of failing QN exam, fear of a school bully, fear of so many things.
This scripture readily come to mind to douse that fear.
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; [nor] for the arrow [that] flieth by day, Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. Psa 91:5-6
In this world full of fear, how good it is to have such a wonderful promise you can lay claims on.
Whether in the day or at night, you can confess this scripture over your life.
We are assured of heavens commitment to protect us both day and night. You are divinely protected.
Prayer: May all our children be protected in Jesus name. Amen.
Action point: Study psalm 91
Declaration: I am protected and shielded from all harm.
You have some significance as light. In a dark place, light is needed. It helps the eyes to see well, aids accurate movement, and creates an atmosphere of peace.
The absence of light makes one blind, can cause accidents, falls, makes the overall place chaotic and fearful.
Jesus asked if one would light a candle and place it under a bed. To think of it, why would anyone place a lighted candle under a bed?
Jesus used this illustration to show his disciples how the light they have (Jesus) is supposed to be shown to others who are yet to know Him. Not to hide our light, maybe out of fear of being mocked or abused.
“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.” – Matthew 5:14
Knowing Jesus gives us peace and guides us to live well in this chaotic world we live in. Jesus wants us to tell others about Him through our words, actions, and lives.
This verse shows you the power you wield as a believer. The power to help people see the light and walk in it.
May your light shine for all men to see and follow. Amen.
Prayer: Lord, I am grateful for Your light that helps me draw men to You. May men come to You through Your light in me. Amen.
Action plan: Pray that your light will bring men to God.
