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 Deuteronomy 13 vs. 13: Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known. 1 Samuel 2 vs. 12: Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial;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..

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES Hannah made a vowed which GOD honors and remembered her.   1 Samuel 1 vs. 19-20: And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD and returned and came to their house to Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. Wherefore it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying because I have asked him of the LORD.      What a wonderful GOD! She asked for a man child and He gave her exactly. She should have asked for sets of twin or triplet, which GOD would have given her. There is nothing GOD cannot do, He cannot be limited. With Him all things are possible. Mind you Hannah fulfilled her vow by giving the son back to him. Many make vows and don’t fulfill it. Be conscious of these, GOD’s way are not the ways of men, His thoughts are not ours. GOD has his own timing. His timing doesn’t match with the timing of ...

TOLERANCE

TOLERANCE I start quoting Robert Green Ingersoll “Tolerance is giving every other human being every right that you claim for yourself ”. This is a virtue every man scarcely has nowadays. Men nowadays find it difficult to tolerate each other. In all religions, Christians are to exhibit tolerance the most; because CHRIST stated that it’s the second greatest commandment. Matthew 22 vs.38-39: This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. But the reverse is the case now, most Christians exhibit intolerance. They can’t tolerate their Christian brothers talk less of those outside their religion. This is awful and not so good. Hebrews 13 vs. 1-2: Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware. Abraham exhibited tolerance, he suddenly noticed three men coming toward him and ran to meet them and welcomed them. He gave them water to wash their feet’s...

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES 2! An earthly father will be delighted and willing to do more for his son or daughter, when she/he shows gratitude. How will you feel when you give something tangible to a person and he didn’t show gratitude? You will feel unwilling to do more for such person. Our heavenly Father deserves to be shown gratitude for all He has done in our lives. Thank GOD for what He has done in the past, what He is doing presently and what He will do in the future. There is no little testimony; you just have to appreciate GOD for his faithfulness and marvelous deeds. Marvelous deeds like, the gift of life, which is the greatest of all blessings, good health and sound mind, sleeping and waking up. Many slept and never woke up, while many find it difficult to sleep. We have to see reasons to appreciate GOD; doing these will gladden Him to do more for us.              However, problems, trials, challenges might be in...
