Bible Devotions for Teens - Christian articles online

Sleepless nights are something everyone experiences. Sometimes worries, stress, or unanswered questions keep us awake. But the Bible shows that the night can also become a sacred moment with God. Instead of frustration, we can turn those quiet hours into spiritual opportunities. Here are 5 things that we can learn from the Bible what we can do when we do not get sleep.  1. Worship the Lord The power of worship is clearly seen in the story of Joshua (Joshua 6:20). The walls of Jericho did not fall because of weapons or human strength, but because of God’s people who lifted their voices in praise and obeyed Him. This shows the incredible power that exists in worshipping God. Worship invites God’s presence even in difficult moments and As it is written in Psalm 50:23,"Giving thanks is the sacrifice that Honours me....." It is not our wealth, abilities, or talents that honor God the most, but a heart that gives thanks and worships Him sincerely. 2. Pray and Pour Out Your Heart ...

Timothy 4:12 — “Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.” Young people are in search of their own role models, but as this quote notes, it’s important for youngsters to start building themselves up as someone worth admiring by others.

David Samuel 17:42 — “And when the Philistine looked and saw David, he disdained him, for he was but a youth, ruddy and handsome in appearance.” This comes from the story of David and Goliath, when this story took place in 1 Samuel 17 David was probably only 17 years old.  We see David as an obedient son (1 Samuel 17:17-20), a brave soldier (verses 26 and 32), and, above all, a young man who fully trusted God (verses 37, 45-47).
