And Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.” (I Samuel 17:33 NKJV)

I SAMUEL 17 IN ITS ENTIRETY

Thought For The Week: God calls people of all ages in all seasons in life to pick up their cross and follow Him. We each have a precious testimony to tell non-believers, and our stories begin at different ages. We unintentionally view younger pastors and teachers as inexperienced or immature in their faith. We must remember that once someone has surrendered their lives to the Lord, the Holy Spirit will begin to guide their footsteps. We are responsible for spiritually mentoring young leaders and helping them flourish in their relationship with the Lord.

Prayer: Father, we are excited to see young ones accept the call to ministry. We will encourage them and mentor them spiritually as they mature in their relationship with You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
