"YOUNG PEOPLE, it’s wonderful to be young! ENJOY EVERY MINUTE OF IT. Do everything you want to do; take it all in. BUT REMEMBER THAT YOU MUST GIVE AN ACCOUNT TO GOD FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO."
Ecclesiastes 11:9 (NLT)

• The significance or importance of the foundation: "IF THE FOUNDATIONS ARE DESTROYED, WHAT CAN THE RIGHTEOUS DO? (Psalm 11:3 NKJV).

  • The strongness of a building is determined by the foundation. The substructure must be strong enough to carry the superstructure. Thus, If the foundational life of someone is destroyed or faulty, what would the person do?
  • Any life built NOT on God and His Word, His purpose and plan; such life is bound to fail and fall, because such life is built on a faulty or a weak or a destroyed foundation (Matthew 7:26,27).
  • Therefore, consider your future, what would you become without God in your life? If you, as a young person, involved in Sin and crookedness, cheating and swindling the people to get money, that you might carouse; you are attracting a Curse on your life.
  • Some young people are into internet fraud and different dubious Acts, all in a bid to get money to enjoy life. Know that nobody lives on Sin and prosper in life: "AS A PARTRIDGE THAT BROODS [sits on eggs] BUT DOES NOT HATCH, SO IS HE WHO GETS RICHES, BUT NOT BY RIGHT; IT WILL LEAVE HIM IN THE MIDST OF HIS DAYS, AND AT THE END HE WILL BE A FOOL" (Jeremiah 17:11 NKJV).

"I WILL SEND OUT THE CURSE," SAYS THE LORD OF HOSTS; "IT SHALL ENTER THE HOUSE OF THE THIEF AND THE HOUSE OF THE ONE WHO SWEARS FALSELY BY MY NAME [God's]. IT SHALL REMAIN IN THE MIDST OF HIS HOUSE AND CONSUME IT, WITH ITS TIMBER AND STONES."
Zechariah 5:4 (NKJV)

"THE CURSE OF THE LORD IS ON THE HOUSE OF THE WICKED, BUT HE BLESSES THE HOME OF THE JUST."
Proverbs 3:33 (NKJV)

• If at all you built a fortune through a dubious means, It would only be for a while, and you would eventually reap whatever you had sown: "DO NOT BE DECEIVED, GOD IS NOT MOCKED; FOR WHATEVER A MAN [woman] SOWS, THAT HE [she] WILL ALSO REAP" (Galatians 6:7 NKJV).
READ: Jeremiah 17:11

  • Whatever a person sows, that he or she would reap. What are you sowing presently, in your youthful age? What you sow today would determine what you reap tomorrow—in your future.

• Who are your friends? Who are the people you are hanging out with?

  • If you are hanging out or befriending the swindlers, those who get involved, or practiced Evil deals, you are attracting a Curse on your life: "WHOEVER IS A PARTNER WITH A THIEF HATES HIS OWN LIFE; HE SWEARS TO TELL THE TRUTH, BUT REVEALS NOTHING" (Proverbs 29:24 NKJV).

18 WHEN YOU SAW A THIEF, YOU CONSENTED WITH HIM, AND HAVE BEEN A PARTAKER WITH ADULTERERS.
22 "Now consider this, YOU WHO FORGET GOD, LEST I TEAR YOU IN PIECES, AND THERE BE NONE TO DELIVER:
23 Whoever offers praise glorifies Me; AND TO HIM WHO ORDERS HIS CONDUCT ARIGHT I WILL SHOW THE SALVATION OF GOD."
Psalm 50:18,22,23 (NKJV)

"WHO, KNOWING THE RIGHTEOUS JUDGEMENT OF GOD, THAT THOSE WHO PRACTICE SUCH THINGS ARE DESERVING OF DEATH, NOT ONLY DO THE SAME [evil Acts or practices] BUT ALSO [the person who] APPROVE THOSE WHO PRACTICE THEM."
Romans 1:32 (NKJV)

• "DO NOT BE DECEIVED: "EVIL COMPANY CORRUPTS GOOD HABITS" (1 Corinthians 15:33 NKJV).

  • If those who are your friends, Are fraudulent people, those who engaged in internet fraud, swindling, And cultism; How would your end be? What seems like a fun, or enjoyment today, would later become a Curse, sorrow, and regret.

6 YES, REMEMBER YOUR CREATOR NOW WHILE YOU ARE YOUNG, before the silver cord of life snaps and the golden bowl is broken. Don’t wait until the water jar is smashed at the spring and the pulley is broken at the well.
7 FOR THEN THE DUST WILL RETURN TO THE EARTH, AND THE SPIRIT WILL RETURN TO GOD WHO GAVE IT."
Ecclesiastes 12:6,7 (NLT)

• You will not fail and regret at the end of your journey on earth in Jesus' name.

  • Should there be any ailment in your body, receive your healing now in Jesus' name.
  • Whatever God has not planted in your body, that is working against your health and wellness, such is rebuked and uprooted totally in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
    Peace!

STEPS TO SALVATION
• Take notice of this:
IF you are yet to take the step of salvation, that is, yet to be born-again, do it now, tomorrow might be too late (2 Corinthians 6:1,2; Hebrews 3:7,8,15).
a. Acknowledge that you are a sinner and confess your Sins (1 John 1:9); And ask Jesus Christ to come into your life (Revelation 3:20).
b. Confess that you believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord, and that you confess it with your mouth, Thus, you accept Him As your Lord and Saviour (Romans 10:9,10).
c. Ask that He will write your name in the Book of Life (Philippians 4:3; Revelation 3:8).

  • If you took the steps As highlighted above, It means you are saved—born-again. Join a Word based church in your area and Town or city, and be part of whatever they are doing there. Peace!
