LEAD YOUR CHILDREN ON THE PATH OF TRUTH

FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED. 

DATE: WEDNESDAY 4th AUGUST

TOPIC: LEAD YOUR CHILDREN ON THE PATH OF TRUTH

TEXT:   2 John 1-4

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. 
 
Be truthful to your children and lead them on the path of truth. Do not teach them lies. “Johnny, that man that is coming over there is coming to disturb me. When he comes and asks of me, tell him I am not around. Did you hear me?” The boy answers, “Okay daddy.” 

The man came and asked, “Is your daddy at home?” The boy replied, “My daddy said I should tell you he is not around.” Very simple! You know when they are growing up they have the understanding of truth. Brush and improve the quality of the truth they have and let them grow in that way. 

Do not turn them into liars. Do not train them to lie. Take note of the things you are saying concerning other people in the presence of your children. Your child will say so about others. 

A man of God came to the house of a sister and the woman gave the man rice to eat. You know rice and its behaviour. I think the spoon hit something and the rice scattered everywhere. When the man finished eating and left, the woman came with her daughter to clear the plates. As she was doing this she remarked, “I don't like people who eat like monkeys. Look at rice scattered everywhere.” The child heard but did not say anything at that time. 

Sometime later, when she saw that man of God coming to visit them, she ran to her mother and said, “Mummy! Mummy! That man you said eats like a monkey is coming.” The mother put the foul language into the mouth of the child. The little girl has caught it and the mother stands guilty for teaching the child how to speak the dirty language. 

Ezekiel 16:44 Behold, every one that useth proverbs shall use this proverb against thee, saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter.  

If you want to speak about something, even if it is something good, sometimes it is better to excuse the child or keep it away from the child because he or she may not be old enough to understand such language. His or her thought towards that matter may be childish. 

1 Corinthians 13:11 Because when I was a child I thought like a child, but when I became an adult, I put away childish things. Teach them to walk in the truth of God. That is what God expects of you.

Thought for the day: Good child upbringing is for your peace and justification 
before God.

Song for the day: Give me grace, grace oh Lord…

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 73-74; 
Romans 5.   #Horemow

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...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
