MEMORISE: And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shal not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:3
BIBLE READING: Matthew 18:1-4
1 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,
3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
MESSAGE:
One of the characteristics of babies is that they do not worry about anything. They are not bothered about what they will eat, wear, or any other thing adults dwell so much on. This is what our heavenly Father expects from us, His children. Although He wants us to work hard and achieve great things, He does not want us to worry about tomorrow because He will surely take care of it.
My dear child, what is bothering you? Is your health failing? Has your parents’ marriage fallen apart? Are you afraid of a particular person, subject, or course? Tell God about it now, and stop worrying.
God wants you to trust and have faith in Him completely. Faith is an expression of confidence in God and His promises. What the prodigal son expressed when he went back home was faith in his father; he was confident that his father would take him back. Express this kind of childlike faith from today and watch how God will take care of you.
ACTION POINT:
For the next 10 minutes, speak to your Father about whatever challenges
