Your Family is your Priority in Life‼️Take Time with your Children (Part 1)

By Pastor and Mrs Chifamba

MANY ARE NEGLECTING THEIR FAMILIES FOR THE PURSUIT OF MONEY AND POWER BUT IN THE WORD OF GOD FAMILY COMES FIRST! SHAPING THE CHARACTER OF YOUR CHILDREN IS BETTER THAN PROVIDING THE BEST TEMPORARY NEEDS

Song of Solomon 1:6

Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.

Deuteronomy 6:5-9

And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. 6And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 7And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 8And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. 9And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.

Genesis 18:18-19

Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him? 19For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

ABRAHAM THE FATHER OF FAITH WOULD GO AND PRAY ALONE WITH HIS SON! HE TAUGHT HIM THE REQUIREMENTS OF WORSHIPING GOD AND THE IMPORTANCE OF TIME ALONE WITH GOD. LET NOT OUR NEGLECT OF SPIRITUAL MODELING LEAD OUR CHILDREN TO REBELLION.

Genesis 22:5-7

And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you. 6And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together. 7And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?

Genesis 24:63

And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, the camels were coming.

GOD WILL CALL US TO ACCOUNT FOR NEGLECTING OUR FAMILIES

Hebrews‬ ‭13‬:‭17‬ ‭ESV‬

“Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.”‬

‭‭

Jeremiah 13:20

Lift up your eyes, and behold them that come from the north: where is the flock that was given thee, thy beautiful flock?

PRAY THAT YOUR HEART MAY BE TURNED TO YOUR CHILDREN. THERE IS A LONGING IN THE HEART OF EVERY CHILD THAT CAN NOT BE SATISFIED BY SOPHISTICATED TOYS OR MONEY 💰

Malachi 4:5-6

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: 6And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

SONG DADDY MY DADDY TEACH ME HOW TO PRAY 🙏

by Jim Reeves

One night a sleepy little boy knelt beside my bed

He smiled and looked into my eyes and this is what he said

Daddy my daddy you've taught me lots today

So daddy my daddy teach me how to pray

You brought me home a brand new kite showed me how to fly

And there ain't no wonder kid who's dad can knock a ball so high

I'd like to thank God for you but I don't know what to say

So daddy my daddy teach me how to pray

I'd had to turn and leave his room he began to cry

I didn't want my boy to know but so did I

His best pal forsaken him but what was there to say

For daddy yes daddy had forgotten how to pray

(Daddy my daddy teach me how to pray)
