Bible Verse of The Day – 11-20-14

Deuteronomy 4:9 (NKJV) 9 Only take heed to yourself, and diligently keep yourself, lest you forget the things your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life. And teach them to your children and your grandchildren…

Is the busyness of life trying to steal from us our time to share with our children the truth of God’s word and the things He does for us today?

Kids need to hear about God, and they need to be shown how to pray, how to ask God for help, for healing and to thank Him for the answers.

It is so very important that we teach them.

God is amazing and He is exciting to learn about! The things He has done for us are better than anything any superhero can ever do and He’s REAL!

It’s sad to think that kids are being taught so much about fake super heroes but have been taught very little about the most AMAZING hero of all…Almighty God.

Don’t leave it up to Sunday School teachers to teach our children. Keep God’s word growing in ourselves and in the hearts of our children every day. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-23-14

(Psalm 78:4 NKJV)  We will not hide them from their children, Telling to the generation to come the praises of the LORD, And His strength and His wonderful works that He has done.

It’s important that we teach and share with our children about God’s wonderful works that He has done!

Sometimes my grandchildren come over and they are so focused on playing in their playroom that I don’t want to disturb them. But, while they are playing, I’ll prepare snacks and then I’ll begin to share some things that God has done. Their little eyes light up and they start asking questions!

Kids want to know the truth; they love to hear the things God did and the things He continues to do in our lives.

The best part about sharing God’s works, and strength, is that it is all truth! The Bible is alive! We don’t have to guess or make it up; it’s all right there in the book. We are safe to share with them His might and strengths! It will stick with them and help them.

They need to know when they are away from mom, dad, brother or sister, that they can stand and not fall down. When they’re in school and there is someone bullying them, pressuring them, tempting them or telling them lies, they need to know who to cry out to. They need to know who will help them at that time.

Mom and Dads are wonderful, but let’s face it, we can not be there all the time. We are really just a pinch of help compared to what God can do for them.

The enemy would love to get us to keep quiet and not share God’s wonderful works and strengths with our children. Maybe we don’t know much about them ourselves so we leave it up to others to teach them?

We can always share the things we do know and those things that God did personally for us. Don’t be afraid; our kids need God just as much as we do.
