Cultivating The Habit of Thanksgiving

Cultivating The Habit of Thanksgiving

Reading Time: < 1 minute

The habit of thanksgiving is good. In fact, it makes everyone around you want to do something for you, you know why? That’s because everyone loves to be appreciated.

Let me show you something interesting. Even the bible says we should give thanks in everything.

In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
KJV 1Thessalonia 5:18

Giving thanks is God’s will for us as his children. His desire is for us to be appreciative of everything and anything.

The bible says “in everything”, another translation says “in every circumstances.”

In essence, all the time is when we should give thanks.

Giving thanks or saying thank you shows you are a grateful person, and grateful people get more things, unlike someone that isn’t appreciative.

So many things happen when we give thanks, to God, our parents, friends and everyone.

1. You make the person receiving the thanks or appreciation happy

2. You get blessed the more. It’s very simple, if you say thank you for biscuits you’ll get more. Try it.

3. You can multiply what you have by giving thanks.

Remember Jesus, when he fed the five thousand, he gave thanks and broke the bread, then gave his disciples to share.
He feed five thousand people and more with five loaves of bread and two fishes.

How do you learn this habit?

1. By asking the Holy Spirit to help you be a grateful person.

2. By thanking God all the time for what you have.

3. By being appreciative each time you get something.

Prayer:
Lord, help me to be thankful always; Amen.

Action point:
Study the word “gratitude”

Declaration:
I am grateful to God. I thank my maker every day of my life.

Little Children, You Were Chosen

Little Children, You Were Chosen

Reading Time: 2 minutes

What does it mean to be chosen? The word “chosen” signifies being set apart for a reason.

How are people chosen? People are chosen on account of certain attributes they have. Things like a good character, telling the truth, humility and discipline make people to be chosen.

Let’s look at the verse in Jeremiah 1:5

“Before I made you in your mother’s womb, I chose you. Before you were born, I set you apart for a special work. I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” – Jeremiah 1:5 ICB

This was God speaking to the prophet Jeremiah. The Lord chose Jeremiah to speak to the children of Israel. These people were very stubborn and disobeyed God many times. God sent Jeremiah to them with warnings to turn from their wayward ways.

Look at the first part of the verse–Before I made you in your mother’s womb, I chose you…

God created everyone and before we were even put in our mother’s womb. You were already alive before God put you in her womb.

God has seen everything about you and decided to call you for His own. That’s why He chose you for that.

If God chooses you to do something, it means you are very special to Him. That there is a particular work God has for you.

Look well at this verse and meditate on it. Declare it over and over, personalize the words and believe.

There is something special about you and God wants to use the special gift He has given you for the good of His kingdom here on earth.

May the Lord keep you all day. Amen.

Prayer:
Father, thank You that before anyone was there, it was only You and I. Thank You for everything. Amen.

Action point:
Look at your life. What things make you feel special about knowing how God chose you?

Declaration:
I am special. God has need of me. Glory.

You Are Not Alone Little Children

You Are Not Alone Little Children

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Hi champ! It’s another time to learn from God’s word. It’s always awesome to know what God thinks and says about you, isn’t it? Do you ever feel alone?

Let’s look at this amazing topic today!

Do you ever feel alone? As a child there were times I felt alone and wanted someone to just seat all day and talk to. Well I didn’t always get the attention.

How about you? Are there times you wished someone really understood how tiring school work is and just hold you and pamper you? I know that feeling!

See what the bible says:

…I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matthew 28:18b (KJV)

These are Jesus’ very words!
How comforting is this?

In this very verse, Jesus was about ascending into the heavens after he had resurrected, and he made this promise to his disciples and friends.

Guess what? This means he was also talking to you as long as you are his friend and disciple.

Are you a child of God? Are you a disciple and friend of Jesus?
If yes, be sure that he is with you always, even until the end of the world.

This I want you to always remember that he is always with you until the end of time.

You don’t have to be scared of anything, you know why? Jesus is always with you, not for one minute will he leave your side for any reason.

See how another translation puts it;

I am with you all the days (perpetually, uniformly, and on every occasion), to the [very] close and consummation of the age. Amen (so let it be). –Matthew 28:18 (AMP)

Always live in this reality and rest in the assurance that Jesus is always with you.

Prayer:
Lord, help me to remember that you are with me always; Amen.

Action plan:
Write down this verse and memorize it.

Declaration:
The Lord is with me.

How Children Can Overcome Limitations

How Children Can Overcome Limitations

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Good morning precious darlings, it’s another time to learn from God’s word. You can overcome Limitations.

Today, I will be talking to you about crushing limitations.

What are limitations?

It is a weakness or shortcoming that restricts one’s abilities.

This can be in whatever form; in your school work, amongst your friends and so on.

When I was little like you, I had limitations in my school work. I couldn’t read and spell even at age seven. It was really bad because everyone made jest of me.

I hope you get a picture of what a limitation is now?

As a child of God, you shouldn’t allow limitations.

It’s OK to not know how to do something, it doesn’t make you less than the people around you.

But you see, the moment you identify what the limit is, trust God to help you overcome it.

God doesn’t want you to be limited neither does anyone around you, you are created for exploits and that’s exactly what you will do in Jesus name.

See what the Bible says:

For by thee I have run through a troop; And by my God have I leaped over a wall. — Psalm 18:29 (KJV)

God really wants you to go beyond all limitations, he is ever ready to help you out of whatever it is.

All you need to do is believe in him and ask for help.

It is by him that you run through every obstruction and leap over what ever challenge, just like that scripture says.

Learn to trust God, and he will always be there for you.

Prayer:
Lord, help me to overcome my limitations; Amen.

Action point:
Study the word “overcome”

Declaration:
I overcome every limitation around me in Jesus name, Amen

Dear Child, You Are Protected By God Himself

Dear Child, You Are Protected By God Himself

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Hello dear, today I will be talking to you about how you are protected by God, and preservation.

These days, there are lots of reasons to want extra security for yourselves. Even your parents on a daily bases are very interested in keeping safe at home, school, playground, every way. There are lots of cases of robbery, kidnapping, and so on.

Beyond the security that you can pay for is being divinely protected by Jesus. Isn’t that awesome?

Being guarded by the angels of God at all times, making sure you are safe and untouched by evil hands.

See what the Psalmist said;

You will keep them and preserve them, O Lord; You will guard and keep us from this [evil] generation forever. –Psalms 12:7 (AMP)

God first of all will preserve you and me, and then guard and keep us from this evil generation.

This gives you every reason to keep out fear, because the Most High is going to preserve, guard, and keep you from all evil.

Look at what the bible says in another place;

…then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. – Psalms 91:10-12 (AMP)

God will command his angels on your behalf, isn’t that amazing?

You mean so much to God; he isn’t going to leave the job of protecting you to just your parents and security persons at home or in school, his angels are also going to be on guard.

Now you know you can live every day in the consciousness of being protected. You are protected by God.

Prayer:
Lord, I pray that I am persevered, guarded, and kept at all times. Amen.

Action point:
Don’t allow the devil put fear in you.

Declaration:
I am protected by God’s angels
