Revelation of the Word:

THEME: CHILDREN

Proverbs 22:6 NIV

“Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.”

INSIGHT

–Parents and guardians are assigned the unique role of helping their children discover how God has equipped them and to guide them in the ways of the Lord. Through guidance on the word of God, prayer, worship and fellowship with their children, children are able to know God from an early age. Parents are also entrusted to help their children discover their purpose and path in life and how they can use their gifts in a positive way as adults. Children left to their own ways are not likely to change and when the become adults may choose the wrong path. The story of Ruth and Orpah is a tale of mankind’s enormous potential for accomplishment and the incredibly high stakes involved depending how he uses that potential. Given the choice, Ruth followed Naomi and became the great grand mother of Jesus through Boaz while Orpah returned to Moab and was forgotten (Ruth 1:9-19).

PRAYER

Dear Lord Jesus we thank You and honor You for You are our God and none can be likened to You. You are the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last, our Redeemer and Savior. We thank You for Your everlasting love upon us, our children and families. Dear Lord You have said in Your word that all our children shall be taught by You Lord and great shall be their peace, may You train them in Your ways dear Lord Jesus. May Your name be exulted even through them. May Your purposes for which You formed them be accomplish for the glory and honor of Your name. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us now and forever more. Amen
