“Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.” Psalms 127:3
The greatest inheritance and treasury we leave with our children and grandchildren is the Word of God deposited into their hearing, their hearts (Deuteronomy 11:18-22). Daily depositing and lovingly, joyfully demonstrating the words of Holy Scripture in the hearts of our children is essential to their knowledge of God and eternal destination.
“The character of your children tomorrow depends on what you put into their hearts today.” Liza Young
Parents who act like their children are ALWAYS right and don’t make them own up to their sins are sending them to hell! Repent devil (Prov 23:14).
TIP: Using age appropriate time span is wise. In other words, if your child is 3-8 years old, perhaps reading 3-5 verses per sitting, in a joyful setting, is good. This is what I did with my son and he never dreaded Bible reading.
Deuteronomy 32:46
And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
No such thing as a Christian who is a parent and isn’t teaching their child(ren) God’s Word.
Read that again and notice that we are to set our hearts upon the words of God and command our children also to observe them.
ARE you training up your children to be church-goers or daily disciples?
Are you praying with your children? Are you teaching what God’s Word teaches us about prayer communion, communication with God?
“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6
Parents-You better get real, quickly! You only have 1 opportunity to train up your child!
PROTECT the God-given innocence of your children. God requires it.
The greatest heritage we give our children is God’s Word. Ps 119:111
ANY parent not teaching literal Holy Scripture to their children today, is out of God’s will (Proverbs 22:6).
Teaching our heritage (children and grandchildren) to know, worship, obey, and follow Christ daily is essential. Many today mislead their own children by teaching them that God and being a Christian is all about “going to church” on Sunday! This is tragic as it steeps one generation after another in religion or churchianity instead of a real walk with Jesus. THE LIVES OF TRUE DISCIPLES OF JESUS REVOLVE AROUND CHRIST AND HIS BODY AND NOT SOME “CHURCH” BUILDING.
When you children hear the words “Christianity” or when anything about God comes up, what pops up in their mind? What have you instilled? Do they think of the nail-scarred risen LORD and Savior or going to “church”?
TIP: Prayerfully select Bible verses to write out on index cards with your children and beginning memorizing them together. Memorizing happens when there is repetition and association. Personally, I taught my son verses like Mark 10:27; Proverbs 3:5-6, and Philippians 4:13.
Are you daily teaching, instilling the verbatim WORD of God (King James Bible) into your children? What Scripture(s) did you teach your precious heritage (children, grandchildren, etc.) this weekend?
“Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. 19 And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 20 And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates: 21 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth. 22 For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;” Deuteronomy 11:18-22
PARENTS who don’t make their children take personal responsibility are God-less, evil!

“The Knowledge of the Holy is Understanding” [podcast]

“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47
A long time friend of mine, after realizing that….
“Thank you for the lambasting.”
“For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 2:17
“A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:” Proverbs 1:5
“Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning. 10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” Proverbs 9:9-10
“The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise. 32 He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding. 33 The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.” Proverbs 15:31-33
“Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.” Psalms 141:5
PRAYER: Father I want the knowledge of the holy. I want to know and serve You on Your terms and no other. Please forgive my sins which include being hardened in heart, being full of pride and rebellion, being therefore unteachable. Break me dear LORD. Let the righteous, let Your people rebuke me as is needed. I want to know, love, worship, and be with You forever. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

“Called, and Chosen, and Faithful” [podcast]

“These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.” Revelation 17:14
You are called and chosen of God…. yet are you faithful to Him?
Beware of any false teacher who is not stressing the biblical truth and necessity of faithfulness to the LORD.
Who’s going to be eternally with “the Lamb”?
We are all “called, and chosen” and yet only the “faithful” shall be with the Lamb in eternity.
“Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” 1 Timothy 2:4
“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9
Lots of people using the word “chosen” to make money by getting views on youtube. Yet few speaking of being truly “faithful” to God. Anyone who repents, receives Christ, and is therefore saved by Christ, and yet doesn’t endure to the end faithful to God, is going to hell (Matthew 10:22; 24:13; Colossians 1:22-23; Hebrews 3:6, 12-15; 10:26-39; Revelation 2:26, etc.).
This “chosen” word gets alot of attention because many wish to feel chosen by God and yet bring no reciprocating love back to God. And we all know that there is NO marriage without both parties loving on each other—powerfully. They want to feel special because their life is still all about them, not Jesus. They want God loving and choosing them but don’t have time to repent, lay down their life, and follow Jesus via the crucified life. They are all about self and not the Savior (Matthew 7:21-23; 25:40-45; Titus 1:16; 1 John 2:4, etc.).
“The LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.” 2 Chronicles 15:2
God does not remain in a relationship with any person who is walking in spiritual adultery.
Get that lie out of your system, now.
“But if any man love God, the same is known of him.” 1 Corinthians 8:3
There’s no doubt ever that God is going to be faithful to us.
The question is though: Are we, am I faithful and true to the LORD?
“It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him: 12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: 13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.” 2 Timothy 2:11-13
The Bible word “chosen” is used often today as a buzz word, as if God chooses us because of how wonderful we are is perhaps the implication. Not.
- “called”
- “chosen”
- “faithful”
“These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are CALLED, and CHOSEN, and FAITHFUL.” Revelation 17:14
No relationship exists without the recipient being “faithful.”
“Many be called, but few chosen.” Matthew 20:16
Jesus says His flock is a “little flock” (Luke 12:32).
“Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Luke 12:32
Matthew 25 is all about God’s calling and choosing and then the eternal outcome of those who obey and those who don’t.
The five foolish virgins are just as “called” and “chosen” as the five wise virgins. What’s the difference? The five wise virgins are “faithful” and the five foolish virgins are not and are going to have the door into eternal glory shut in their face. Read Matthew 25:1-13.
In His parabolic teaching of the talents that were doled out to His workers, what did Jesus tell us lies ahead for those who are not faithful stewards?
Of the unjust, the unprofitable steward that received His gift of one talent but buried it, Jesus says: “And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth” (Matthew 25:30).
And then just a few verses down we read this…
“And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.” Matthew 25:40-46
Many wish to deceive themselves into thinking they will enjoy an eternal relationship with the Great Bridegroom in Heaven and yet choose to refuse having a “first love” relationship with the Son of God in this time of testing…..
“But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.” Luke 19:27
PRAYER: Open to Psalm 51 in the King James Bible and pray with David.
