2. Because of Jesus’ perfect sacrifice on our behalf, we are free to offer back to Him our lives, our service, our compassion for others, our prayers. 3. Our promises to God should never be entered into lightly as he considers them binding. www. Creative Youth Ideas .com
Practical Applications for Youth: 1. Do I take time to worship God through total attentiveness and openness? 2. Do I sense how very serious God considers sin and do I spend time in confession and restoring fellowship? www. Creative Youth Ideas .com

like Job, be patient under all circumstances; like Caleb and Joshua refuse to be discouraged because of superior numbers, like Andrew, strive to lead my brother into a closer walk with Christ… Realizing that I cannot hope to achieve these objectives on my own strength. I will rely upon Christ, for I can do all things through Christ which strengthened Me’” www. Creative Youth Ideas .com
