TEACH THEM, LORD!

https://hisvoicedevotional.blogspot.com

His Voice Text:Isaiah 54:13.

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

One of the major challenges many parents are facing in this adulterous generation is how to raise goodly and godly children.

While it is certain that ungodly parents cannot raise a godly child, It is however disturbing why many children from godly parents are being unruly and wayward.

You will be appalled when you  hear about the artrocities being committed by young ladies and men that were raised within the confines of the church building and godly home. You will often wonder where the parents missed it. 

Many parents have tried all they could to raise goodly and godly children, without getting the desired result. They have tried many means but all to no avail. 

Today, aside Proverbs 22:6 that talks about training up a child in the way he should go, I want to highlight another major medium you can employ in raising goodly and godly children. No matter how bad a child might appear to be, this is a great antidote for correction.

You must never forget that your children has the God of the universe as their Father first of all. They can hear and understand God  in the very core of their being where you cannot reach as earthly parents. 

Now, our text clearly states that He, the LORD shall teach all your children. That's the reason His word says in Psalms 127:1 that Unless the LORD builds the house, They labor in vain who builds it; Unless the LORD guards the city, The watchman stays awake in vain.

 *God is the major builder of our children, parents are only but an employed mason. If the main builder is not building the house, then the masons are only wasting their time.* 

Always pray that the Lord will teach your children by Himself. When you start praying like this, you are asking the very builder (God) of their lives to raise them as He had purposed from the very beginning.

May the Lord teach your children from on high above in Jesus name.

Bible Reading:

Psalms 127:1-5.

 Prayer Points

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

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
