LABOUR DILIGENTLY TO RAISE CHILDREN FOR HEAVEN

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: LABOUR DILIGENTLY TO RAISE CHILDREN FOR HEAVEN.

TEXT: MATTHEW 19: 13-15 

THURSDAY DECEMBER 29th 

Key Verse: 3 John 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth. 
Raising children that will enter heaven will require everything we have. It has required the best the Father has, in giving us His Son, Jesus Christ. It will require the impartation of the Holy Spirit and continued perseverance for us to raise children for heaven. We have learned about raising children in the way they should go so that as they grow up, they will not depart from it. Yet we see our children departing from the truth after we have prayed and fasted and shouted and carefully rebuked them. What else ought to have been done?
Ephesians 6:4 And ye Fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. 
Have you been provoking your children? Have you shown them that sin has to be resisted unto blood to overcome it? Have you set some time aside to have bible study with your children and your family or have you assumed that attending meetings is all that is required? We have learned about the terrible and worrying accounts of some of the children in the Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide and some of these testimonies have been from the children of ministers in the Holiness Revival Movement. The accounts of these children show us that in fact, we do not know the challenges our children are facing. 
Satan has decided to fight our children and we cannot afford to ignore their struggles. It will require wisdom. If the head of the house is busy with activities, can the mother of the house make herself more approachable to the children? If both appear unapproachable, how will the children confess to their parents? Is it not better that the confession is made indoors within the family rather than expose the children’s dirt in the open? Do we want to bring the Church of God into disrepute? 

Thought of the day: Be careful of your children, because of Heaven.

Song for the day: Make me holy (3x) O LORD…

Bible reading for the day: Zechariah 10-12; Revelation 20

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
