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.

Sex and Lust

*Sex & LUST* I need you to understand that LUST is different from SEX. Lust is a desire in the heart to gain a sexual experience with some one. Sex is a decision and action. Your problem is not sex but LUST. Lust is the major challenge of teenagers. If there is no LUST at work, sex won't step in. Lust always shows up in your mind or head as a suggestion. The moment you give it attention, it settles and becomes your master. There is nothing like unplanned sex...or temptation that showed up accidentally. Temptation or rape is an opportunity that met a prepared mind trained or nurtured by LUST. Guard your heart against LUST via Gods Word and it will become easy to deal with the issue of sex. Sex is a choice, a decision and an option or suggestion. It is not a helpless feeling. It's deliberate in nature consciously or unconsciously. The Holy Spirit is aware of your struggle. Come to him un-ashamed. HOPE EXPRESSION celebrates you. # PrinceVictorMatthew

Jesus is the Truth - Part 1

You are welcome to this Revelation.  “I AM THE TRUTH” is the very statement of Jesus Christ about himself. There is a wrong concept about Jesus; Jesus is not here to show you the truth – HE IS THE TRUTH. Jesus is not here to point you to any one – he is here to point you to Himself. In the Gospel of Jesus, don’t try to separate the truth from Jesus. There is no truth without Jesus. Any truth without Jesus is not the truth. You need to understand that we are living with the two concepts. There are two types of truth. We have “truth” - this truth is all about things that please the five senses but disagree with God. The “TRUTH” is divine in nature. Truth is natural in natural. Truth is generally accepted but the truth is accepted through the help of the Holy Spirit. The truth is all about the Father but the truth is all about self desire. The truth produces humility but truth brings pride. Every thing you can see and touch has two version “truth” and “the truth”. ...

Teenager, Who Are You Really?

Have you ever felt like you’re trying to be someone you’re not? Maybe you feel pressured to fit in, to look a certain way, or to meet expectations that don’t align with who you truly are. The world is loud, constantly telling you who you should be, how you should act, and what you should believe. But have you ever stopped to ask, Who does God say I am? 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” You are not defined by your past mistakes, your insecurities, or the labels people place on you. In Christ, you are made new. Your worth isn’t found in popularity, achievements, or how many people approve of you. Your worth is found in the One who created you. Psalm 139:14 reminds you, “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” Think about that for a moment. You are not an accident. You are not a mistake. Every part of you—your personality, your gifts, your dreams—was intentionally designed by God....
