GIFT OF GOD.

I grew up knowing and hearing that youths are the leaders of tomorrow and this is still being said till today but I realize that the scripture never places us in such a category. 
.
It never instructs us to wait until we are more mature or knowledgeable or skilled before we begin to take God's Word seriously and consider what plans and purposes the Lord has for our lives. Therefore I can say youth is not only the future, but God’s gift to the church and society today.
.
Unfortunately, where are these gift of God today? Sometimes when I look back to where I use to be, I feel bad at the wasteful years but glory to God that I am not where I used to be anymore. "Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity" (1 Tim. 4:12). 
.
I say to you: let no youthful exuberance, lust, pride, fashion, internet, and so on despise your youth but be example in showing forth fruits of the Spirit, modest dressing, godly living, etc.
.
It is time to cry out to God to deliver you from all distractions, to deliver you from every destiny waster, from immoralities. I desire to see youths who are up and doing for the kingdom of God, to see youth involve in politics in the right way, to see youth dressing to glorify God and to please men or self.
.
Note, if the devil is able to weaken your prayer life, he has made a way into your life. 
.
Let us arise to this campaign and say, Lord break us, re-mould us for Your use, O Lord let there be revival in which great conviction of sin and holy cleansing will take place. (1 John 1:7). O God of salvation, raise up youth that will not be ashamed of the gospel, let the power of the gospel cut across our land, O Lord, we call forth a great Jesus movement from today.
.
We declare O Lord that you raise great prayer army amidst us; my Father, my God, we declare the youth of our nation will fulfill their dreamed destiny and the curse of abortion over them and our nation will be broken in the name of Jesus; we will stand for truth and holiness and will not compromise; we will seize the moment and turn nations back to God, we are world shakers.
.
For those still outside Your fold, we pray against all spirit of disobedience and plead for mercy over judgment for their lives in the name of Jesus. Fill us with wisdom and spiritual understanding, help us not to be defiled with worldly things. 
.
Help youths to make the right choices at all-time O Lord and activate fruit of the Spirit in their lives in the name of Jesus.
.
We declare for those that has been held captive that they are set free, we release destiny for glorious fulfillment, we destroy every destiny destroyers, every wrong association is scattered. From my heart, I decree that from today, we are blessed, we walk in the light of God, we will fulfill destiny, there shall be no untimely death in the name of Jesus, there shall be deliverance, restoration and revival in our lives in Jesus name, Amen.
