Teenagers: Embracing Your Identity and Purpose in Christ

As you navigate through the whirlwind of adolescence, filled with uncertainties, dreams, and aspirations, it’s crucial to anchor yourself in something solid, something timeless. In this season of your life, I want to remind you of the incredible opportunity you have to discover your identity and purpose in Christ.

You may be thinking, "Why now? I’m just a teenager." But let me assure you, there’s no better time than now to embark on this journey of self-discovery and purpose. The Bible is filled with wisdom and guidance that speaks directly to you, regardless of your age.

In Jeremiah 29:11, God declares, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." This verse reminds us that God has a purpose for each one of us, even from our youth. You are not too young to start uncovering that purpose and walking in it.

Proverbs 3:5-6 urges us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not on our own understanding. As teenagers, it’s easy to get caught up in the pressures and expectations of the world around us. But when we anchor ourselves in Christ, we find clarity and direction for our lives.

Think of David, who was just a shepherd boy when he was anointed as king of Israel. Despite his youth and inexperience, God had a plan for him, and he stepped into his divine purpose with courage and faith. Similarly, you have a divine purpose waiting to be discovered and embraced.

Discovering your purpose in Christ isn’t just about finding a career or achieving success by the world’s standards. It’s about living a life that glorifies God and impacts others for His kingdom. Whether it’s through your talents, passions, or everyday interactions, you have the power to make a difference right where you are.

So, how do you begin this journey of self-discovery and purpose in Christ? Start by spending time in prayer and reading God’s Word. Seek guidance from mentors and fellow believers who can help you discern God’s voice amidst the noise of the world.

Don’t be afraid to step out in faith and try new things. God may be calling you to areas you’ve never imagined, but He will equip you with everything you need to fulfill His purposes.

Remember, you are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and your life has immense value and significance in the eyes of God. Embrace this season of your life with confidence and courage, knowing that God has a plan for you beyond your wildest dreams.

As you journey forward, may you find joy in discovering your identity and purpose in Christ, and may you boldly step into the calling He has placed on your life.

With love and encouragement,

Prince Victor Matthew

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.

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.
