Text:Isaiah 54:13.
I will teach all your children, and they will enjoy great peace.
Yesterday, we looked at the three institutions that God can use to raise Godly children; which are the home (not necessarily your biological home), the Church (not the building but the body of Christ) and the Christian Schools.
The first two are directly instituted by God while He allowed the third one to be established by His
children.
Home, Church and Christian schools are God's transformative platforms in our society today. When all these three fail in the life of a child, such child cannot be redeemed by any other institution on earth. The failure of these three in a child's life will inevitably lead to a colossal and eternal loss for such a child.
When God says that He will teach your children, He is going to achieve that with the cooperation of these three transformative agents. The very fundamental of these three is the home, it is because of the failure of the first home of Adam and Eve, that the whole earth is in a mess today.
The Lord therefore sent His Son Jesus Christ to establish his church in order to redeem the mess created by the first home. It is the same thing today. The church is meant to help build the home. Whenever the whole member of the family turn to God through the evangelistic outreach of the church, such home or family has regained the dominion mandate that was lost in the garden of Eden.
Children can therefore be thought by the Lord in a home that has been redeemed through His church. They can also be taught in a church that has been raised and established by the Lord, or in a Christian school that the Lord has raised not just to teach academics or morals but also spiritual principles drawn from the bible.
You can imagine what would happen if every single family in the churches all over the world are opened to God's commands and obey it. This would have brought a great spiritual awakening to our world.
When God is allowed in all the three transformative agents to teach our children, it will not take long before the whole world is won over to Christ.
Would you allow God to use you as a Father, Mother, Pastor, Deacon, Deaconess, children minister, discipler, proprietor, proprietress, or school teacher to teach the children in your space today?
Teach and raise children in a Godly way today, and tomorrow, you will reap them as Godly parents who will also do same to their own children.
Bible Reading:
Psalms 127:1-5.
