Bless the Lord, Oh My Soul
SCRIPTURE: "Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name! 2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: 3 Who forgives all your iniquities,
Who heals all your diseases, 4 Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, 5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things,
So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s." Psalm 103:1-5

Devotionals from our Genesis Youth and Young Adults have come to an end. We praise the Lord for their encouragement, transparency, and willingness to write what the Lord has shown them. We encourage you to go back, read again, and let your heart be blessed. Thanks also to the saints for your encouraging comments.
Up next is our Summer Scripture Memorization. This year, we are grabbing passages of scripture, and our prayer is that you would commit these to memory. The Holy Spirit will bring back every Word to remembrance. (John 14:26)
PRAYER: Bless the Lord, oh my soul! Thank You Jesus for every word Your children have shared and the impact their walk with You has made in their lives. We pray that You would continue to give them boldness in the faith, Your strength in their hour of weakness, Your comfort in their time of trial, and for every victory won may there be a praise and thanksgiving on their lips to You, Jesus. It is in Your name I pray, amen!

I would like to thank all of the youth and young adults for their encouraging words of wisdom thru the month of June I have been encouraged, convicted, and blessed by each devotional. Continue to walk and trust God. To God be the Glory!! ?
I echo the words of Sis Debbie Whye. My heart has been encouraged, challenged & convicted through your words of wisdom & truth. Continue on your journey of walking with the Lord. He sees you & knows you. Jeremiah 29:11
Thank You JESUS that out of the mouth of our youth YOU have ordained PRAISE!!!
Amen! Your will be done, Lord, in us & through us!
I have been blessed by the devotions and it give me joy to know that their are youth and young adults at Genesis walking in the truth.
What a promising future we have, by the grace of God. Thank You, Jesus for every one of our children and youth. Amen.
Amen!! Such encouraging messages from our youth & young adults. May God continue to cover & bless our youth!??
Amen. It has been a blessing. They so quiet in church. We walk past and speak. yes to see how the Lord is using them and how they are growing in the Lord through test and trials, but they have hidden the word in their hearts. Just to come along side them and taking time to ask and listen and even to see if they need anything is big to them. Thank God for them.
