The Place Of Planning, Battling, Prayer, And Wisdom In Child Training

Text: Proverbs 6:4-11 

Wednesday 8th January

Key Verse: If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally and upbraideth not and he shall be given him.   James 1:5
The training of children involves prayer, praying to God for yourself to make you fit for the work. Pray for resources, effective materials, and good connections, in case you are not where the child is. Seek for the method or methods that you can use to succeed in this good work. It involves prayer and fasting, battling with forces of corruption that go about corrupting children. The right methods and the right persons all have to be employed in the business of child training. It is because if the child is not properly trained, she will behave badly. When your fingernails are not trimmed, we see dirt under them. You were too busy to cut them. You kept on forgetting. Your forgetfulness keeps on increasing the dirt inside your fingernails.
Your face is becoming bushy because you have not been able to shave. You did not have time. Your face is beginning to change such that we are finding it difficult to recognize you now. Beard has taken over your face. Why? This is because you are not shaving your beard. Likewise, with child training, if you fail to train your children, they will become weird and wild. Ask God for grace. Ask him to help you, and empower you to train them. Children that are well trained are a blessing to their parents and the world at large. Happy is a man that has a number of well-trained children. They are blessing! 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 one, probably that was not a minister 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: With God in the place of prayer, your child can be trained in His will.
Song For The Day: He’s everything, Jesus is everything to me…
Bible Reading For The Day: Genesis 26-28

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
