INVEST IN OUR TEENAGERS

Respect the teenagers and listen to their ideas. In doing this, you are building up their self esteem.

Invest in the teenagers and you will be able to preserve your legacy. The safety of the future lies in the maturity and safety of the teenagers.

Pay attention to the moods of the teenagers for their silence speaks a million words.

Correct the teenagers but don't condemn. Rebuke teenagers but stop rejecting them. Never you amplify their mistakes above their safety.

Always remember, we all make mistakes that is not intentional. In the same light, pay attention to the struggles behind a teenagers mistakes.

Being an adult does not imply being domineering, and manipulative. Some times, give the teenagers a chance to explore their own ideas.

Lying to a teenager will make the teenager to lie to you some day. They always do what they see you do.

He is not just a teenager; there is a father, leader and husband trapped in the heart of that teenager. Lay good examples for Him.

Don't just tell the teenagers what to do, show them how it's done and most importantly, let them benefit from the result of it.

Every teenager is special and unique. Trying to compare one with another is like comparing a goat with a cat. Treat them as an individual personality.

Talk and treat that teenager as an adult intellectually and spiritually. In doing these, he or she will drop childish behaviour.

Never you make any teenager feel they are too young to ask any questions irrespective of any topic they bring up. The fact he or she asked you shows a level of respect for you. Be sincere and offer that teenager a healthy answer to his or her questions. If you turn that teenager down, they will get their answers from the wrong source.

Respect every teenager verbally, physically, emotionally, socially, and financially.

Listen more to the teenagers. Be more eager to listen to ideas and suggestions. Pay attention to understand them first before you speak.

Trying to treat the teenagers as if they are still existing in your own days as a teenager years back is frustrating. Stop using the word "when I was your age."

Every teenager have a unique dream. Pay attention to it and stop imposing your own dream or expectations on this teenagers.

Salvation - Part 1

I commend you to the Holy Spirit and God’s word to help you to discover and learn all that God has proposed you to learn and discover in Jesus Name. Our topic for today is SALVATION. Our Case Study will be Colossians 1:13 – 14 What is Salvation? SALVATION is the translation from the kingdom of sin into the kingdom of his dear son. SALVATION is a lifestyle, a personality, a culture and SHE has a desire (God’s plan and purpose). SALVATION is a journey from the stage of ignorance into the place of the knowledge of God’s plan. This is a shift of mindset, attitude and manner of approach from the carnal state into God’s principles. Why is SALVATION needed? SALVATION is needed because of the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Man-kind was perfect in the beginning until sin entered into them and corrupts God’s nature in their lives. This is needed because man-kind need to be restored back to the plan and purpose of God, sin cut off from mankind after the f...

Stay Healthy In Friendship

Three things that will always poison your friendship or relationship with the people around you are the following: - Presumption. - Assumption. - Suspicious. The only way to defeat these deadly enemies is you asking question. Don't make any decision when you don't have a full detail and understanding. Don't fix your believe about any one base on what some one else told you about this person. Get close to people and have your own personal discovery of who this person. PEOPLE WHO GOSSIP TO YOU ABOUT ANY ONE WILL ALSO GOSSIP YOU TO ANOTHER PERSON.  Don't be a victim and ask the Holy Spirit to help you. Even if you discover a fault in your friends life....pray for them. Be patient with your friend the same way your parents or some one else is being patient with some of your misbehave. You are a teenager with purpose.  Allow the Word of God to set the pace for every of your choice and decision. HOPE EXPRESSION believes in you.
