INTRODUCTION: God didn’t create man to suffer One of God’s packages of blessing is riches/wealth. It is the plan of God that his children lend to nations and not borrow. Teenagers should understand that riches are not needed in heaven. Many have been deceived into thinking that living in financial poverty is holy and pleasing to God. This is not true as riches are meant to be used and enjoyed on earth. That is why we must use what we have to glorify God’s Name. Daddy G.O. once said “I have been both rich and poor —- and I like rich better. It gives God glory when we live out His will on the earth as it is in heaven

STUDY GUIDE
A. Teenagers should note these in relation to riches:

  • God’s intention – Deut 28:12
  • Riches are integral part of God’s blessings.
  • Riches come from God through His power – Deut 8:18
  • God’s blessings come with conditions – Deut 28:1, Psalm 1:1-3
  • When you give, you receive – Luke 6:38
  • Those God blesses, fear God and run from sin – Psalm 1:1-3
  • Jesus was made poor, that we may become rich – 2 Cor 8:9
  • All these point to the fact that God is interested in the riches of His children.

B. Who is the giver of these blessings?
God is the ultimate giver. James 1: 17 – “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights,
with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning”

• LOVE: As teenagers, we must first respond to God’s love.

• GENTLENESS: Gentleness begins with genuine humility. Everyone should be treated with care. Teenagers should be compassionate and considerate with others. Barnabas is a good example Acts 9:26-27, 15:12&36-39.
• SELF-CONTROL: When a teenager chooses through the power or the Holy Spirit to stay in charge of his thoughts, feelings and actions rather than allowing them to destroy you.

LIFE APPLICATION: Check the fruit you have, improve on it. Check the one you don’t have, ask God for it.

CONCLUSION: The Holy Spirit can help teenagers to bear good fruit that portray the character or Christ. The Lord’s Command is that you should bear fruit but more importantly, the fruits should abide. Having studied the fruit of the Spirit, it is worth it that you allow the Holy Spirit to help you ber good fruit.

obeyed Satan rather than obey God. On the other hand, God asked Abraham to take his family and move to an unknown country. Abraham followed God’s instructions, even though it was hard. Because Abraham obeyed, God promised to make Abraham into a great nation, and He did. God rewards obedience generously! Obedience is an act of doing and being willing to do what one is told to do happily and willingly. It is total submission to God and those in authority like parents, pastors, teachers and those who rule over the society. True obedience comes from a heart of love and it is real, not take or eye service.
