The God fearing parent will infuse their children daily with the Word of God KJB.

There are eternal things, the things of Christ’s kingdom, to instill in our children. These are infinitely more important than getting a worldly education for your children. Do we not see the results of a generation of “Christian” parents who spent their time, lives, and energy to lay up money to “educate” their children in this world’s “higher learning” institutions only to lose them to the enemy of souls? Unreal!

Prepare your children for godliness here and eternity with Christ.

Read God’s Word with your children – the King James Bible.

Memorizing Scripture with your children!

“Let thine heart RETAIN my words.” Proverbs 4:4

ANY parent not teaching literal Holy Scripture to their children today, is out of God’s will (Proverbs 22:6).

Teach, demonstrate to your children what is godly-by what you say and do.

“The character of your children tomorrow depends on what you put into their hearts today.” Liza Young

Readers are leaders and perhaps much of what we do as parents is whet the appetite of our children for that which is godly and good. Among men, our words are most weighty with our children. As adults, each of us is largely a product of what our earthly parents spoke into our ears. And now as an adult, that which our heavenly Father is speaking via His Word into our lives. The privilege and opportunity window we are given by God to help direct and mold our children, is nothing short of amazing.

There are what we can call biblical power words. It’s important to teach your children using these words which will never leave them, the whole of their lives on this planet:

Christ
the cross-laying down ones life as did Christ
truth
love
sin
holiness
sanctity of human life
confession of all sin
the essential of maintaining a clean heart before the LORD
godliness
integrity
honesty
upright
contribute – jump in, serve, make a difference (ABS = ALWAYS Be Serving)
respect for all
elder respect
helping others
serving God and others
fearing God
obedience to God’s authority
courtesy
edification of others
fellowship
restitution
stewardship
politeness
consistency
mercy
forgiveness
grace
return of Jesus

Though I didn’t grow up in a Christian home, my dad taught us many things good, including consistency. When we wanted to join a sports team he told us that if we were going to start we WERE going to finish and not quit. Isn’t this kin to enduring to the end, persevering, never giving up but rather forging forth in God’s enabling grace, no matter what?

Also, my wonderful father, when training us to automatically DO what is right, used methods that included repetition. As children we’d leave the door open when walking outside. So, my father would have us walk out or in and out of the door and close it 10 times until it became habit. Habitually uprightness can spring from this method. When the Bible says to “Train up a child” it’s speaking of a rigorous course or regiment to instill righteousness or right doing.

Parents-You better get real, quickly! You only have 1 opportunity to train up your child!

One disciple writes: “When we were growing up…we spent many weekend nights with Grandma and Grandpa. EVERY time, at bedtime… Grandpa would say, “Y’all ready for prayer?” He said it that way, but we knew we had no choice. We all gathered around their bed and prayed. Most times, I’ll be honest, I fell asleep. But it was a beautiful, comforting sound to hear my grandpa cry and pour his soul out praying for each one of us by name. My grandmother would more than likely go into her heavenly language , crying as well, talking to God. We did the same thing at home with Mom and Dad. It’s a wonderful thing to hear your daddy weep before God. I remember a few times, during the day even , walking in on my mother on her knees by her bed. I would slowly back out for reverence. I felt I was intruding on Holy ground. I hope I leave the same legacy for my children. I have failed quiet often, but I am working on following their examples, in these areas at least.”

The greatest heritage we give our children is God’s Word.

“Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart.” Psalms 119:111

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6

Hebrew for “Train up”:

H2596
חָנַךְ
chânak
khaw-nak’
A primitive root; properly to narrow (compare H2614); figuratively to initiate or discipline: – dedicate, train up.

To “Train up” our children we must repetitiously instill in them what is right. Training up carries with its definition a continual, perpetual teaching and not just a one time instruction.

Concerning Scripture memorization with your children, Gary Skinner writes:

“I should have done exactly that, I played the fool for too many years and am paying for it.”

Thank God for parents who truly love – by chastening, spanking when needed. Only un-loving God-less parents hate their children by not spanking them when needed!

“He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.” Proverbs 13:24

Are you truly training up your children to respect authority, to please God?

ARE you training up your children to be church-goers or daily disciples?

Stripped and Sanctified with Travis Bryan III [podcast]

“See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:10 “God allowed Job to be stripped. I was also thinking of Jeremiah 1:10. God uses what Satan meant to harm us for His good. Providence. Romans 8:28. As we know he did in Joseph’s life. I could be wrong but in this title is Satan getting credit for stripping us?” Karen Cochran Why Did God allow Job to Suffer, to be Tested? Job’s Suffering, Testing […]

Man Shall not Live by Bread Alone [podcast]

“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:” 1 Peter 2:2

Spiritual growth occurs when we ingest the words of God, embrace, incorporate, and walk them out.

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12

“The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.”Psalms 33:11

The graphic message below is from a dear sister in Christ named Cassandra, on SubStack:

“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.” James 1:22-25

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:31-32

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

YOUR PRAYER: Holy Father, thank You for finding and forgiving me and saving me into Your eternal family. Help me realize the utter importance of feeding on Your Word daily. I love You dear LORD Jesus. Help me to love You more LORD. Help me to feed, to nourish the members of Your body with Your Word. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

You Are What You Read!

Wanna walk with Jesus? Simple: Get in His Word and do it! “Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.” Revelation 1:3 The Bible here tells us that God will bless those who read and do His Word. While is it essential to do the Word, it is also essential to search the Word of God! How can one know to do God’s will unless He studies and knows it? THE MOST IMPORTANT EDUCATION YOU CAN GET IS TO KNOW […]

H.O.T. BIBLE STUDY [podcast]

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 Memorize 2 Timothy 2:15 today. Index card perhaps. Read it aloud over and over. YOU cannot personally know the ORIGINAL Gospel if you don’t study the naked truth of it for yourself beloved. KJB So very many today are deceived due to not studying God’s Word for themselves. They live for years with erroneous notions men told them. Instead of repenting and getting into the Word for themselves, many of them go to their graves having […]

Bible Literacy Series

BIBLE LITERACY SERIES “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.” James 1:22 Overall Bible knowledge is extremely important and yet obedience to the simple truths of our LORD is even more important (Matthew 7:21; John 14:15, 21; 15:14; 17:3; James 1:22; 1 John 2:4-6; 3:18, etc.). Most of us have seen many people who were very knowledgeable in the Word who later fall away because they left their “first love”, (Revelation 2:4-5) They ceased from doing the basic things consistent with staying in close fellowship with Jesus that are required of us […]
