The Best of the Feast
Mar 8, 2017 – Proverbs 23
Who’s Raising Your
Children?
“14 Now for the third
time I am ready to come to you. And I will not be burdensome to you; for I do
not seek yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up for the
parents, but the parents for the children.” 2
Corinthians 12:14 NKJV
Please join with us sharing God’s
Word daily. We spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every
word in God’s Word in approximately three years.
Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in
the book of Proverbs Chapter 23.
Today’s Feast is about relationships. There
is nothing more important than the relationship between a person and
Jesus. Sobriety is addressed in today’s Feast. The relationship
between a parent and children is so very important so there will I dwell for
the day. “13 Do not withhold
correction from a child, For if you beat him with a rod, he will not die. 14
You shall beat him with a rod, And deliver his soul from hell.” Proverbs 23:13-14 New King
James Version (NKJV). God’s Word contains many commandments the
first one that comes with a promise is the commandment that deals with the
relationship between children and their parents (see Ephesians 6:2). A child that
is not raised with instruction in God’s Word is being cheated by the parents,
Jesus said “Let the Children Come to Me”; (seeLuke 18:15-17) and when we do they can
be successful in Jesus. “7 Do not be
deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who
sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.” Galatians 6:7-8 ESV. As
Christians, it is up to us to instill Godly values in our children. Parents
must teach children whom to obey (see Colossians 3:20). When
children are raised to obey their parents, they learn to please God (see Ephesians 6:1). The
world (Satan) will happily raise your children, but not unto salvation. The
promise of God’s salvation needs to be shared with our children (See Acts 2:38-39). If
are children are taught to obey Jesus and their parents (See 2 Corinthians 12:14)
there will be peace in the family. If the Lord is willing I will write and
post the Feast tomorrow.
Listen! Is Jesus calling you? Are you ready to answer Him? Do you want to find true happiness, peace
and purpose in your life? If the answer
is yes to any of these questions, please click the following link; admenu.com/calling.html.
Today’s Verse; Search me, O God, and know my
heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; And see if there is any wicked way in
me, And lead me in the way everlasting.” Psalm 139:23-24 NKJV.
