YOU CAN’T SAY BECAUSE YOU ARE A YOUTH YOU CAN’T SEEK GOD.
Being a youth gives you an opportunity to seek The Lord because it is in that stage that you are strong enough to spend more time in the presence of the Lord without having so much expectation of life responsibility and to concentrate on what you must concentrate upon in as far as your destiny and future is concerned
You can’t say because you are a youth You can’t seek the Lord. You can’t stay in his presence. You can’t study the word of God or even fellowship with your friends for purpose of spiritually being blessed
Josiah SON of Amon came into power when He was eight year’s old. I believe He is one of the kings in the bible who came to power at a tender age but guess what happened _in the eighth year of his reign as king._
He began to seek The God of His Ancestors 2 Chronicles 34:3[3]For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young [sixteen], he began to seek after and yearn for the God of David his father [forefather]; and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, the Asherim, and the carved and molten images. and thus in the 12th year of his reign He began to cleanse Judah and Jerusalem 2 Chronicles 34:4[4]They broke down the altars of the Baals in his presence; the sun-images that were high above them he hewed down; the Asherim and the graven images and the molten images he broke in pieces and made dust of them and strewed it upon the graves of those who sacrificed to them.
