Explanation:
'The Battle For The Young' is a book written by Gbile Akanni. The book focuses on the teaching for youth. The author asserts that youth is a crucial period of life. He sayys that it is the young generation that Satan attacks the most as they are the driving force of any nation, family, society, and so on.
He starts with that in the childhood we depend upon the choices of our parents but when we enter youth life, the decision of making choices falls in our lot. And the choices that we make in our youth are the ones that will drive our future. Our adulthood depends solely on the choices made in youth life. Many people regret making bad choices when they enter the adulthood but these times do not come back.
He says that there is a fight going in us, especially youth between good and evil. If we know God we would want to do His will but the desires of our flesh pulls us towards evil. There's a battle between seeking the holiness of God and the pulls of the flesh. So, through this book, the author is urging youths to make wise choices and do the will of God.
