Deeper Life Sunday Service 11th October 2020 with Pastor W.F Kumuyi
Message: Youth violence is becoming a great concern in our world today. Violent gangs such as evil cults and fraternities, control neighbourhoods in some cities today. This makes law enforcement quite challenging.
What fuels this restiveness is the availability of hard drugs in the black markets, alcohol, hate music that incites the youths to violence. There are many other devices the devil has invented to distract the youth.
The story of the prodigal son is actually about a quest for independence. The youngest son walked up to his dad, demanded and received his own share of the inheritance, and took off on a jolly trip to manage things by himself. His decision started to backfire after he ran out of money and began to be in want.
With the biting famine and with no one ready to help him, the young man joined himself to a fellow in that country who employed him to tend his swine – a very humiliating job. He was dying of hunger as he struggled for his food with the swine. He eventually decided to return to his father, who was kind enough to receive him.
Many youths have lost their moral compass in a society that is becoming more ungodly by the day. The rising cases of unemployment in many societies seem to have worsened youth restiveness and exposed them to many anti-social activities.
Since youth and children currently account for a large chunk of the world’s population, the subject of youth ministry and outreaches should begin to take priority. Believers should get involved in outreaches that target the youth, and do their best to raise their own children in a godly way. If we cannot change the world, we can at least ensure our own children are brought up in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Our youth deserve our attention and prayers.
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 22-25
