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...

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...
