God needs teenagers.

"…I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the wicked one" – 1 John 2:14

God needs teenagers. The devil also roams in search of teenagers. He robs the youth for their strength by giving them sinful pleasures and destroys them. (Revelation 12:12, John 10:10) Even today, the devil is actively working to distract young people from entering the eternal life that God has planned and destroy them in this worldly life. Because teenagers think of someone as a hero, if we say you are a hero, they think of themselves as "0" (Zero).

Once Prime Minister Nehru went to England. Then the philosopher Bertrand Roussel met him. Then the wise man looked at Nehru and called, "Come, Prime Minister of "0" country." Nehru thought that India was "0" before the development of England. The philosopher looked at Nehru's face and said, "Sir Nehru, I mentioned that you have came from the country of "0" as you came from the country that revolutionized mathematics by discovering "0" mathematics."

Even today, the devil continues to deceive the youth just as he deceived Adam and Eve by not letting them realize the superiority that God has given them. He makes us think that holiness not possible and that we cannot recover from sin. He makes us think that sinful happiness is eternal. Adolescence to live! No need to seek God now. Then he gives the thought that he can take care of it later.

Youths! The cunningness of satan are not unknown to us. So if we surrender ourselves to God as we are, surely we will be exalted like the devotees in the New Testament and the Old Testament. God needs each one of us as teenagers. Learn to see yourself as God sees you. You can act as a Hero for God. May the Lord bless you!

- S. Samuel Morris
