MFM Mountain Top Life Devotional 30 October 2019 – Remember your Creator in the Days of your Youth

MFM Mountain Top Life Devotional 30 October 2019 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – Remember your Creator in the Days of your Youth

TOPIC: Remember your Creator in the Days of your Youth

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 20-21; 2 Timothy 4

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Daniel 1:8

MEMORY VERSE: “And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.” – Genesis 32:26

MESSAGE: To be purposeful is to be determined, resolute, focused. A man or woman of purpose is a man or woman of vision and destiny. Bible says in Daniel 1:8 that Daniel purposed in his heart that he will not defile himself. In other words, Daniel determined that he would not destroy his future, his vision and destiny with the merriment of few days.

God is looking for such young people in this generation. As a matter of fact, youthful age is exciting and full of happiness. It can bring you closer to God and at the same time, it can bring about barrier to closeness to God. It is what you choose. There are a lot of young people in the Bible who served God. Joseph was a young man, who purposed in his heart not to live immoral life when he had every opportunity to do so.

The Bible is replete with examples of young people who served the Lord impressively. Regardless of your age, you should place your life in the hand of God and let him work wonderfully with it. Jesus was young when he astounded the teachers in the synagogue. His superb brain astounded them. David was a young man when he confronted and killed Goliath. At the risk of his life, he attempted and did something great for God. The Most High, in turn, made David mighty and famous. In addition, Joseph was a young man whose life’s journey was short of being rosy. He was going through pain he did not deserve. He should have seized the opportunity offered him by Mrs Potiphar to end his suffering. He did not because righteousness was in his DNA. He loved righteousness and hated wickedness. God rewarded his right choice in due course. Another young person that did great things for God was the little maid in Israel who lived in Naaman’s household. She was the one who informed her master, Naaman, about Elisha, the prophet of God in Israel who had the anointing to heal Naaman. Lastly, Daniel ans his three friends, though captives in Babylon, did great things for God. They were promoted in the kingdom and their God was exalted by the heathen kings.

Today, there are still young people who are serving God. Where do you belong? What are you using your youthful energy to do? God is still using youths of your generation to His own glory. If you have not, try and be one of such youths today. You will not regret doing so, in Jesus’ name.
