THE C R U C I A L MESSAGE FOR ALL CHRISTIAN YOUTHS GLOBALLY - THE COMMON PROBLEMS OF YOUTHS TODAY!

Beloved, this message is meant for the youths and parents with youths worldwide. As parents and Guardians, use this message to check and guide your children in the way of the Lord. Prov 22:6. The rate at which Satan is battling with our youths today, to capture or catch them young in order to make their lives miserable, impoverished & useless to their families, Communities, churches and the Nation is worrisome and lamentable and it calls for sober reflection! From my research and studies with some analytical observations, i now realize that there are certain problems that are common among the youths of our generation, which need to be addressed urgently! Note, in this crucial message, i am not going to talk much about youths outside the Church, because those ones are already in the hands of Satan, and he is using them to capture the whole world! But my main concern here is the youths Inside the Church! Here is a Warning given to all Christian youths to be careful about the kind of lifestyle they are living today: "Rejoice o young man, in thy youth,and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and In the sight of thine eyes, but know thou that for all these things God will bring thee into judgement" Ecc 11:9. And in chapter 12:1, it says, "REMEMBER now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh when thou shalt say, i have no pleasure in them" This is a serious Warning for all Christian youths in the body of Christ today. Now what are the common problems among the youths of our generation? 1. EVIL COMPARISON!  This is one of the greatest problems facing our youths today. The Bible says those who compare themselves with others are not wise. 2Cor 10:12. Today evil comparison has made many of the youths to have backslidden! They are comparing themselves with the youths of the world. They want to live like them. They have forgotten that they are youths in the Church who are to shine as light of the world. This is a common problem among youths today. 2. YOUTH RESTIVENESS AND AGITATIONS!  This is another serious problem facing the youths of our time. Today many Christian youths are restless, agitating to do things that are contrary to the scriptures. For instance, in some churches or Ministries today, youths are ganging up against their Leaders to allow them to live the way they like and to dress the way they please. And when the Pastor refuses to consent or agree with their demand, they go into riot to press forward their demand! There was a pathetic story I heard of a Church where the Sunday school Teacher (A Sister who believes in total holiness) was teaching the youths that it is not good for Christian ladies to wear trousers, paint their faces, lips, fingers or wear slimy dresses etc. The youths in that Church were not happy and comfortable with that Teacher and so they went and met the Senior Pastor to remove the Teacher immediately. And the Pastor who had no spiritual stamina had to concord and remove the Teacher who was preaching holiness and brought in the one who believes in worldliness like the youths. The new Teacher started telling them to dress the way they like, that after all, God is only concerned about our heart. Then the youths started rejoicing and jubilating that they have won! This is the problem we are having in many churches today. 3. YOUTHFUL EXUBERANCE!  This is another great problem among youths. The youths want to know, they want to test, they want to taste, they want to enjoy when it is not yet time for them for all these things. Generally, the adolescent period for all youths is a very delicate one! This is the period the youths are about to transit into maturity, to get married. This is the period many youths get spoiled, some of them going ahead to pregnate ladies here and there, why because they want to know, they want to taste! But any Christian youth that can pass through that age without any defilement or corruption that young Christian man or Lady will become a Mighty instrument in the hand of God in future and a great Leader Indeed. It is a major challenge facing the Christian youths in the 21st Century! 4. LACK OF PATIENCE.  Many Christian youths are not ready to be patient with their current Leaders and wait for their time before they start to manifest. Many of the youths want to overthrow their Pastor and take over his seat when it is not yet their turn or time to do so. Why not being patient with God until the appointed time! The Bible says he that shall endure unto the end... Mt 24:13. Lack of patience is a major problem among the youths today. 5. LACK OF SELF DISCIPLINE AGAINST THE OPPOSITE SEX!  This is another serious problem rocking our youths today. Many of the youths lack self discipline when it comes to the issue of the opposite sex. Today you see some Christian youths who have not married but live as if they have married! Sometimes you see them hugging, caressing, embracing and kissing as if they are husband and Wife! This is an inordinate and unholy practice among the Christian youths! Any Christian youth found in this type of life, he or she is worthy of suspension from the body of Christ. Such a youth is corrupting and defiling the body of Christ, the Church. The Bible says such a thing should not be named even once among the brethren. It is an unholy behaviour! Why not wait until you are married before you start caressing, cuddling, embracing, hugging and kissing, only with your Wife? Be patient! Maintain a self discipline today as a youth to avoid regretting tomorrow! 6. INDECENT DRESSING!  This is another terrible problem facing almost every Christian youth today. Deep worldliness has become part and parcel of the youths in our churches today. They dress half naked even to the Church without their conscience even condemning them. They paint their face, lips, fingers, toes and decorate themselves with Jewelries singing in the choir and working with the Pastor as Secretary! And the Pastor is not concerned or worried about all these abominations in the Church! What a world of corruption we are living in? God is seriously against worldliness in the Church. Check it. Gen 35:1-4, Ex 33:1-6, 2Kgs 9:30, Eze 7:19-21, Isa 3:16-23, 1Tim 2:9,10, Rom 8:5-8, 12:1,2. Note, there were some churches and ministries that started very well with holiness message and practice but the youths of our generation came and turned everything upside down and those churches are now operating perfectly in deep worldliness today because of the advent of the youths of the 21st Century with dangerous and evil civilization! 7. PRIDE OF EDUCATION!  The last point I want to mention as a common problem among the youths is PRIDE OF EDUCATION OR CERTIFICATE!  The Bible says pride goeth before destruction. Many youths, because they have gone to University and gathered circular knowledge, they are no more ready to humble themselves before their spiritual Leaders who God has placed over them. Note, do you know that one can go to University and read to become a Professor or Vice Chancellor of a University, but when it comes to spiritual matters he or she is minus zero degree? This is a major problem facing the modern youths. Some youths were very good from their families, loving God, living a holy life before they went to School. But as soon as they come back from school they started speaking another language, dressing any how and they will tell you it doesn't matter. Hmmm, may God have mercy on our generation, especially on our youths. Amen. THE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEMS.  The solution is very simple. Every Christian youth should genuinely repent and be focused on the Lord! Jesus is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. He is the way, the Truth and the Life. John 14:6. The youths should stop comparing themselves with worldly youths. Rather they should compare themselves with Bible youths such as Moses (the proper Child), Joseph, David, Nehemiah, Timothy, etc. The youths should maintain self discipline and stop Committing sins in the body of Christ. They should embrace holiness of life and avoid every iota of worldliness and carnality in the  Church of Christ. Above all, the youths should learn to be humble and submit to their Spirit fathers of faith! Note, any youth that reads this article and takes the divine counsel seriously, your both physical and spiritual future is bright and you will not miss your place in heaven in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen!! You are free to share this crucial message with everyone around you especially the youths of our generation. Remain blessed and rapturable in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen. I love the youths with the love of God
