This youth devotional is made up of 50 in-depth devotions.
It can be used in either one-on-one quiet times or in group studies. This study-tool includes tonnes of exercises to get your teeth stuck into. Bible passages, prayers, hard-hitting questions, and thoughts for the day feature.
title: God doesn’t want us to water down our faith until it’s so weak it’s no use to anyone.
vision: There’s an ever-growing need for the youth to be well fed and watered with the Word. I’ve made the devotions as easy to digest as possible as I know how hard it is for young people to get to grips with the Word.
content: I tackle some issues which most people would rather forget about, including pride, modern-day idolatry, materialism, Christian cliques, confession and living the life of a hypocrite. I’ve balanced this with character studies and encouragements such as 'God of the impossible' and 'superheroes are human'. I also talk a fair bit about prayer, service, simple faith and peace.
Here’s a brief outline of a handful of the studies:
1. God’s plan prevails - We should stop putting up a fight, just like Jonah did.
2. Back to basics? - Having an uncomplicated, clear-cut childlike faith.
3. Dream or reality? - Being a doer rather than a dreamer.
4. For the glory of God - Studying some unlikely 'heroes of faith' and how they sought to glorify God in the mundane.
5. Miracle-worker - From personal experience I believe that God still has the healing touch to this day.
6. Are we limiting the Lord? - Taking time to examine Christian bubbles and comfort zones.
7. Garbage gift-wrapped - Our 'jewels' are junk compared to what’s in store. Reminding us that whatever we’re holding onto is holding us back.
8. Hide and seek - Finding your God-given gift.
9. Scatterbrains and scaredy-cats - God loves to use losers. Just think of Peter at Pentecost, he allowed God a free-reign in his life.
10. Juke-box Jesus? - Prayer is so much more than God giving and you getting, Jesus does not serve as a juke-box.
11. Modern-day hermit - Hard-hitting message based on Romans 10:14, how are they going to meet Jesus if we don‘t preach or reach out?
12. The counterfeit Christ uncovered - Discovering the real Jesus.
