TOPIC: CHILD TRAINING IS GREAT LABOUR

DATE: TUESDAY 26th JANUARY

TOPIC: CHILD TRAINING IS GREAT LABOUR  

TEXT: Genesis 18:17-19

KEY VERSE: Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Child training is a labour. It is a work to be done. It involves vision and action, because the Bible says, " Train up a child in the way." You must design the way you want your child to go. Child training is an activity that takes time. It means, you must create time to be with the child. You have to reduce your involvement in other things for the training. How do you put people in a class for training and the teacher is not there for them? You have to create time for the child. Child training is a challenge. It is a challenge because many things go against it. What do we say about the lazy man? What about the man who occupies himself with other things? What about the travelling man? What about the man that stays too far away from the family? What about the mother who is occupied with business or office work? It is laziness! You have no time but you spend a lot of time for yourself. Train your child and he shall give you peace and blessing, or leave him untrained and reap the shame and sorrow that follows later. 

Child training involves planning, battling, prayers and wisdom. You must plan for it and take action according to your plan. Ask God for his wisdom and grace to achieve good result. It involves prayer. Pray for resources, effective materials and good connections; in case you are not where the child resides. Seek for the method or methods that you can use to succeed in this good work. It involves prayer and fasting to battle with forces of corruption over children. Right methods and right persons all have to be employed in the business of child training. It is because the child is not trained that she behaves badly. When your fingernails are not trimmed, we see dirt under them. You were too busy to cut them. Your forgetfulness keeps on increasing the dirt inside your fingernails. Children well-trained are a blessing. Happy is a man that has a number of well-trained children. It was said of John Wesley’s mother that she had many children, nine of which survived to adulthood and she decided to train them all to become ministers of God. She worked on them. All except, probably one, became ministers of the gospel. She gave them good training. She gave them time. You can do so too. Have a goal in training your children.

Thought for the day: A well trained child today is your peace tomorrow.
Song for the day: Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old…..
Bible reading for the day: Exodus 11-12; Matthew 18:21-35

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

TOPIC: HOW TO BE SANCTIFIED (PART 2)

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE HOREMOW DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY PASTOR PAUL RIKA INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR. DATE: FRIDAY JULY 17, 2026. TOPIC: HOW TO BE SANCTIFIED (PART 2) TEXT: HEBREWS 11:1-6 1. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2. For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. 4. By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. 5. By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 6. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligent...
