Thank You
SCRIPTURE: “Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ," 2 Corinthians 2:14
While we are waiting on Devotionals to be submitted, I just want to take this time to say thanks to all our Genesis Youth and Young Adults for their transparency in sharing vulnerable moments and what the Lord Jesus is doing in their lives.
Our Genesis Youth and Young Adults have Christ as their foundation. From the Nursery to Primary Church to Buds 2 Blossoms, Boys of Christ and Daughters of the King, to your homes, the Word of God and faith in Jesus have been the standard we have proclaimed. That is why we have asked our Youth & Young Adults to write devotionals based on what the Lord is doing in their lives, their testimony!
Their testimony is a triumph, a victory, in Christ! The scripture says in 2 Corinthians 2:14-15, “Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place. For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.” Did you get that? We who believe in Jesus are lead by God into victories in Christ Jesus and the fragrance that victory emits testifies of JESUS! Oh Glory, Glory, Glory to GOD!
Parents and Grandparents, my challenge to you is to ask your believing children and grandchildren to write and share a devotional that discusses the impact of the Lord Jesus in their walk of faith. Yes, their testimony, their triumph in Christ and their fragrance of Christ!
The format for the devotional looks like this:
Thanks to all of you who have read and taken the time to comment and encourage. God has used you to esteem our Youth and Young Adults and to God be the glory!
PRAYER: Thank You Jesus for children; the heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb, and making our quiver filled with them. Oh, they are a blessing to us! Thank You Jesus for what You are doing in the lives of our children. Surely some, if not all of us, while reading these devotionals have been taken back to our youth and remember some of these challenges, concerns, realizations, and appreciations. We thank You that Your hand of grace and mercy has kept us and will continue to keep us and our children as we all walk out our salvation with fear and trembling. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen!
