TOPIC: THE DESIRE OF GOD FEARING PARENTS FOR THEIR CHILDREN

TEXT: PROVERBS 23:24-25
24. The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: And he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him.
25. Thy father and thy mother shall be glad, And she that bare thee shall rejoice.
 
KEY VERSE. PROVERBS 10:1 “A wise son make the a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.” 

Parents normally instruct their children to live godly so that they can be happy. Christian parents go the extra mile to preach to their children to submit their lives to Jesus so that they also will be holy, happy and inherit the kingdom of God in the end. 

When you are a good child, you make them happy. You may be the only child but how awful it is if you the only child is an armed robber. But imagine if the only child is a godly child: humble, respectful and well behaved, you will be more to your parents than ten children, just like John the Baptist. 

Parents rejoice when they have good children. On the other hand, parents of bad children suffer reproach from people in their neighborhoods, schools, and in the church. 
Mothers live in continuous sorrow and bitterness because of the contemptuous lifestyle of stubborn children. 

With this attitude many parents plead seriously with their children not to come around when they have visitors. Their dresses are evil and ungodly. Their nakedness and indecency plague their parents and bring shame to them. Hence, they desire in their prayers that their children should be saved and delivered from irresponsible lifestyle that brings reproach to them. 

Wearing short gowns, skirts, tight fitting dresses, ungodly hair-do, bleaching, funny hair cut, exposing your buttocks, wearing torn dresses etc. are activities that bring shame to godly parents. 

Therefore, be a good boy and a good girl. Do not allow evil reports about you to enter the ears of your parents for what you have shamelessly done in the school or society.

Change your attitude so that your parents can have what to say to their accusers if they try to reproach them. Jesus also is calling you to come and follow His life style. God will bless your parents and family if you cooperate with them to live a godly and holy life. 

Thought for the day: Wise children are blessing to their parents. 

Song for the day: God is good, He has done me well

Bible reading for the day: Ecclesiastes 5-8

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...
