Thank you for enrolling in this 14-Day devotional from Victory Academy for Boys. At Victory, we believe the Bible is the inspired truth of God and is “breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” We believe that “his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire.”
These Scripture verses from 2 Timothy and 2 Peter focus on the importance of the Bible to encourage us, correct us, equip us for every good work (like parenting), and more. We have compiled a list of Bible verses that we feel will be of specific help to parents of struggling teens. We have added some notes of explanation, advice, and some reflection questions that we hope you’ll also find helpful.
We know the battles you face, as well as the discouragement, frustration, and sense of hopelessness you feel; and we care. If you believe that we can be of help to you and your family, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at Victory Academy for Boys.
Before starting each day, take a few minutes to pray. Ask God specifically to encourage and instruct you through his Word. Ask that his Holy Spirit would speak these truths to your heart and strengthen you in your inner spirit for the struggles you are facing. Pray that these promises would come alive and that your faith to believe them would be strong. We encourage you to record your thoughts in a notebook or prayer journal as you go along.
May God Bless you as you breathe in these truths that God has breathed out in effort to give us hope and life.
Sincerely,
Mark Massey
