The Message
David
looked at the congregation of Princes and advisers of king Saul and asked a
question “do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? Do ye judge
rightly, O ye sons of men? None of them could guide him a right to stop
harassing an Israelite who God used to deliver them from Goliath of Gath who
was a terror to the people of God. He saw clear manifestation of Adamic nature
in them right from their mother’s womb – the wickedness of the unconverted; the
lies of the depraved ones; the lies of the sinful world. To avoid our children
being wicked and miserable counsellors tomorrow withersoever they find
themselves, we need to show them the way of the Lord even when they are still
in the womb for, they got estranged right from the womb.
As
a believer, we can affect our children and the young ones around us in
godliness to the best of our ability to make them godly by living according to
the word of God; teaching and nurturing them with the word of God; praying for
them and with them until Christ be form in them rendering the serpentine poison
in every man powerless. When the word of God and God himself is regarded by
them, they become harmless; lowly, meek and gentile.
Your
labour upon your estranged child will not be in vain for God assured true and
sincere believers that their labour of love shall be rewarded; yes! Truly our
children shall be taught of the Lord and great shall be the peace of our
children. Your children and my children shall be for signs and wonders in our
extended families and for the people around us; your prayers and labour upon
them shall not be in vain.
So,
do your duty – teach them; show them the way of the Lord and commit them into
the hand of God to whom they belong because the scripture says “children are
the heritage of the Lord” and God to whom all power belongs will draw them to His
kingdom as Christ proclaimed in John 6:44 that “No man can come to me, except the
Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day”
I pray that the spirit that now worketh in children of
disobedience will not have its way upon our children; they will only try but they
will not prevail in Jesus name. Let godly parents with all assurance in God
[faith] use their weapon of the WORD and PRAYER to bring their children to the cross
until Christ be formed in them.
And, as a child reading this devotional; I know you
wish to live long here in the land of the living; therefore, do not make your
parents cry; don’t be a burden unto them; you are a gift from God to your parents;
hence, obey them in the Lord and do not do your own will but the will of God. It
is the will of God that you must be under the control of your godly parents.
Estranging from the counsels of your godly parents is tantamount to gross
disobedience and sin of witchcraft; desist from being like that and be under
the control of God.
Confession of the Day
I am of God by his grace; I will not be a miserable counsellor;
I will allow the spirit of God to control me every now and then.
