The major mistake that is so common among the youth of this generation is to make decision without making enquiry or without hearing from God. Most especially in the area of choosing a life partner, many of the youth love to do it in their own way and not in the way of God.

The story of Samson in the book of Judges 14vs3 is the typical example of what I am talking about here. Samson asked his parents to marry Delilah for him even when he knows it is against their tradition and instruction of God.

Many are the youth of this generation that are just going for the container without asking God to reveal to them the content inside the container. 1 Samuel 30vs8, Genesis 13vs5-7. The account in the book of Genesis above also gives more light of the account of another person that placed the container above the content. Lot chooses the land that is humanly full of nutrients and gave the other to his uncle without making enquiry from God, just the same way David did in the book of Samuel above; we all know the end of the story. Do not go for the container, go for the content.

The container is just a careful package being used to get your attention, container is a distraction from the real thing. Genesis 13vs10. It is just a well package pictures or design to take your attention from the real content. Genesis 13vs10-13, 2 Samuel 11vs1-5, 2 Samuel 12vs5-6, 2 Samuel 12vs9-12.

The content is the real deal. It is the main point of the matter. The content is what you are paying for not the container, it is the value you are to get.

HOW CAN YOU IDENTIFY THE CONTENT?

 You cannot know the value of a book by looking at the cover page not until you start reading the book. In the view of this, the following are the things you have to do.

1.  You must be rooted in God. Genesis 13vs14-18.

It is until when you start drawing your strength from God as youth that you will start getting revelations or classified information about some crucial issues or matters about your life.

It is because David was rooted in God that made him to enquiry about the end result of the battle he wanted to go into.

 2.  You must have good relationship with God. Deuteronomy 7vs9, Psalm 37vs4.

It is one thing to be rooted, it is another thing to be getting nutrition. Some people have their roots in Jesus Christ but they are not getting nutrition from Him. God is not relating with them like friends will relate with each other or like a good father will relate with his child.

3.  You must understand the system of the kingdom. Matthew 5vs16, Matthew 5vs22-48, Romans 12vs 1-3.

Many are in the kingdom without the understanding of the kingdom principles. You must know and live by the kingdom principles before you can enjoy the benefits of the kingdom. You must abide by the kingdom rules (Commandments of God) before you can be getting those classified information about the content.

4.  You must follow the system of the kingdom strictly. Romans 13vs8-14, Galatians 5vs 16.

Do not be among the youth that have or know the system of the kingdom but they are not following it. They believe the principles and the system of God is too high to operate and because of this, they opt for the standard of the world. You cannot be working with the system of the world and think you can still enjoy the right content from God's kingdom.

 BENEFITS OF GOING OR CHOOSING THE CONTENT

1.  You will enjoy peace in the storm. Job 22vs21, Psalm 1vs1-3.

Whenever storm will arise in your home, in your career, in your relationship etc., you will have peace because you know you are not walking in error or wrong decision, you are not in the wrong boat. When others will be crying of famine, you will be enjoying divine supplies because you are walking by God's instructions.

2.   You will have a good father in-law to report to. Judges 19vs3-19, 1 Chronicles 28vs6, 2 Samuel 7vs14.

In case of relationship, if you choose the content base on the leading of God, whenever there is an issue between you both, you will have God who is your father in-law to report your case to.

3.   You will enjoy divine cover.

A man that got the content through the help of God will have the Lord Jesus Christ as the Lord over him and this is automatic divine protection over such person.

 CONCLUSION: God is not a stupid father that will give his or her child to the wrong person. He will never give his or her beloved to the angel of darkness in white garment.

If you want to enjoy the right content from God, you need to be part of God's family by giving your life to Jesus Christ today because tomorrow might be too late. God bless you as you make the right decision of surrendering your life to Jesus Christ.
