TEACH THEM, LORD!- 2

Text:Isaiah 54:13.

I will teach all your children, and they will enjoy great peace.

It is important for every parent to know that it is only with the help of the Lord that they can raise  goodly and godly children. Hence, if  parents do not know the Lord, such  parents cannot do justice to Godly parenting. 

 *No matter how educated or disciplined ungodly parents may be, they cannot raise godly children, because you can't give what you don't have.* 

It is clear that it will only take God's intervention for a child under ungodly parents to be raised as a godly child. Although, God's major institution for raising goodly and godly children is the home, but in a situation where the home has failed, God will be counting on the church and the Christian school to bridge the gap. 

The church is God's major interception for raising goodly and Godly children. Church leaders must know this fact. This is the reason  children and youth ministry must not be taking for granted in the church. 

One of the major duties of the  church therefore, is to  provide godly parenting for ALL, and this includes the children, teenagers and youth.

Another institution the Lord uses for raising goodly and Godly children is the school.
That is the reason for which  God is instructing His own children to establish schools. *The purpose of Christian schools should  not just be about profit making but for  raising godly children.* 

You can now see the reason for establishing missionary schools. This has always and will continue to be a major platform for raising Godly children in every generation, especially with regards to failure in the home.

May the Lord help Christian school owners to know this well. A Christian school owner must know that Christian school should run as God's palliative and intervention for home failure and not just for profit making.

The Lord is counting on you as a parent, church leader and Christian school leader to provide a platform for the Lord to teach our children. Please don't fail Him.

 *Prayer Points* 

1. Father Lord, please teach my children from on high above as you've promised in your word in Jesus name.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
