HERITAGE OF THE LORD

HERITAGE FROM THE LORD
Psalm 127 vs. 3-4: Lo, children are a heritage of the LORD, and the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows in the hand of a mighty man so are children of one’s youth. Giving birth to a child is a gift from GOD. They are GOD’s reward to men. The bible said be fruitful, multiply and replenish the earth and subdue it. Genesis 1 vs. 28: And GOD blessed them and GOD said unto them, Be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every  living thing that moves upon the earth. Heritage is an inheritance, property that may be inherited. Children are GOD’s property and must be nurtured and trained in the way of the LORD. Proverbs 22 vs. 6: Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Whatever a child is taught when young, he lives with it. When a child is brought up in the way of the LORD, such a child will become the cynosure of all eyes; such child remains in the way of the LORD and will also train generations to come, such child won’t be a son of Belial. The children of Belial serve other gods. The children of Belial know not GOD. The children of Belial’s light do not shine; they are in darkness. Deuteronomy 13 vs. 13: Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known. 1 Samuel 2 vs. 12: Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the LORD.
               
Many are disturbed because their children one way or the other misbehaves, mind you when you train and nurture a child while young in the way of the LORD; he cannot depart from that way, he cannot misbehave, he will always bring you joy and peace of mind. Many parents are responsible for a child’s indiscipline; many don’t even have time for their children. Many are work conscious and neglect the welfare of their children. There is a saying, spare the rod and spoil the child. A child should be corrected when he has done something wrong. Many children are spoilt and they lack morals and manners. Parents always see to taking proper care of your child. Eli refused to nurture and train his sons. They became sons of Belial. When you refuse to nurture and train your child in the way of the LORD, they become sons of Belial. Children are sharp arrows in the hand of a mighty man to defend him. Your children will defend you and will always respect you, if you nurture and train them in the way of the LORD. Many give birth to children to prove they are capable of doing so; we should give birth to children so we can raise them to serve GOD together. Joshua said as for me and my household, we shall serve the LORD. That should be our motives. As for those still looking for the fruit of the womb, as GOD visited Sarah and Hannah; he shall visit you in JESUS ‘s name. And as for those set to deliver, as GOD made the Hebrew women deliver with ease in those days, they shall all deliver safely with ease; they will live and their babies will live. To the children, always obey your parents for this is right that you might live long. HAPPY CHILDREN’S DAY. It is well with us..

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...

HE THAT COVERS

HE THAT COVERS To cover is to hide and to conceal. A man cannot be wiser than his Maker or Creator. GOD is our Maker; He molded us and formed us into what we are. He is the Potter, we are the clay. Jeremiah 18 vs. 6: O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? Says the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the Potter’s hand, so are you in my hand O house of Israel. GOD sees all and His foolishness is wiser than man’s strength. 1 Corinthians 1 vs. 25: Because the foolishness of GOD is wiser than men, and the weakness of GOD is stronger than men. A man that covers his sins prospers not; but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Proverbs 28 vs. 13: Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Cain was a tiller of the ground; Abel was his brother and was a keeper of sheep. Cain brought fruits of the soil as an offering to GOD, Abel also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat; which the...

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...
