God’s Answer For Troubled Children
Pro 22:6
Train up a child in the way
he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Pro 22:15
Foolishness [is] bound in
the heart of a child; [but] the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
Pro 23:13
Withhold not correction from
the child: for [if] thou beatest him with the rod, he
shall not die.
Training our children
God’s way is so important, more important than most things in this life, more
important than owning our home, and that of a great importance, owning a car,
and that is very important, or whatever we desire to own, training our children
in the way they should go, is paramount important.
Training and bringing up our
children, and grandchildren on God’s Word, is exceptionally important.
God gave us His Word, the
Holy Bible, with laws, with how to behave, how to get things done, in every
aspect of our life, and they are all for our benefit, so we can have a peaceful
life./t is so sad that parents cannot belt a child
today, due to the laws that have been made, and we as Christians have held
their peace on it.
Pro 29:15
The rod and reproof give
wisdom: but a child left [to himself] bringeth his
mother to shame.
Training a child in the
way God has designed to bring up a child, stops that child from bringing shame
to his or her Mother./t is not only important to bring up a child religiously,
but religion on its own, is not enough, we have to get our children to learn,
and to recite Scripture.
A child will not die if
the rod of correction is used, and it is so sad that there is so much rebellion
against God’s plan in bringing up children.
Today a parent has to find
other ways to chastise their children, and even then, parents have to be
careful in how the chastisement is carried out..
It is so sad today, that
in every aspect of life, God is left out of so much of our life,
that He, God wants to be included in, and His idea of a good life, is
ignored.
How many Christians do not
know God and His plan for them, due to not knowing the Word of God, or even
having been brought up on wrong doctrine.
We wonder why our children
behave in the way they do, we wonder why they are not little angels, well, how
many leave their children to be child minded by the TV or on the Internet
without supervision.
What is going into our
children’s mind, our grandchildren’s mind, and what goes in, will come out,
even if not straight away, but sometime in the future.
Train up a child in the
way he should go, so letting the unsupervised TV, or computer train our
children with wrong ideas, is that the way we want them to go, and for them to
be trained for the future.
I can remember many things
of my childhood, and if I had of been more grounded in the Scriptures, what a
difference that would make to me now, and through my life, my life would have
been different.
God says; My people perish, for lack of knowledge. I was grounded in
Religion, with some Scriptures, and if I was grounded in Scriptures as I was in
religion, it would have made a difference to my life.
Hsa 4:6
My people are destroyed for
lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject
thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou
hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
Pro 29:18
Where [there is] no vision,
the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy
[is] he.
If we do not know the law,
how can we keep it, and many say; we are not under law, but under grace. Jesus
also said He did not come to do away with the law but to fulfil
the law.
The more we know what God
says to us in His Word, the more we get to know God, and His ways for us.
Mat 5:17
Think not that I am come to
destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Gal 6:2
Bear ye
one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of
Christ.
Jam 2:8
If ye fulfil
the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt
love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:
These verses prove to me,
we still have a law to fulfil.
We still have the ten commandments to keep, and they were given under the law,
so we still have laws to keep.
Do you know, that if we
have love, that is the Love of Christ, then grace will abound, and the laws,
they will not be so heavy a burden on us. When we have Love, the laws will just
melt away, for our love for each other will out-way
the laws. When we walk in Love we will do all or most things that God desires
of us to do, but when we move outside His Love, then
we come under God’s laws, and then they become our rod of correction.
We Are What We Think.
"For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he." (Proverbs 23:7)
What we do and say begins
with what we think and believe. In the pursuit of perfect health, it's
important to remember that the mind greatly influences the body and spirit. The
human mind is a complex and wonderful "machine," sometimes referred
to as the most powerful computer ever built. Like computers, we can process,
store, and share information. And like computers, the information we put out is
only as good as the data we put in: Garbage in, garbage out.
This topic is similar to
what Jordan Rubin recently sent out in his email.
Seed-time and harvest,
doesn’t this touch every area of our life; What we sow we shall reap, not might reap, but will reap!!
If we put value time into
our family, then we shall reap, togetherness, unity in the home, and if we
build our family on the Word of God, then we will build our family on a solid
Rock, and that is Jesus Christ.
Gal 6:7
Be not deceived; God is not
mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he
also reap.
Gal 6:9
And let us not be weary in
well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Isa 26:3
Thou wilt keep [him] in
perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed [on thee]: because he trusteth in thee.
We forget,
that what we do today, and how we think today, catches up with us in the
future, and many times in the near future.
I remember when I used to
listen to Rex Humbard on the radio, and even though,
I do not remember exactly what he said, as I am going back 50 years, but I
remember the topic spoken, and here it is;
Day by day we can forge a
chain, and the more we forge it, the harder it is in
later life to break it. Rex Humbard also told the
story of a King, who had chains made, and they were strong and unbreakable,
then one day for some reason he found himself being put in these chains, and
there was no escape for him.

We are blessed today, even
if we have made chains in our mind or in our actions they can be broken by the
sacrifice of Jesus. If anyone of us are in this
situation, then this is the year to make a turn around, and not only say; I am
cleansed by Jesus Blood, but let us put it into practice.
We as Christians hang onto
the legal side of what Jesus Christ has done and is
doing, but most are not getting into the practical side of what Jesus has done.
We as humans,
take the easy way out, and especially us as Christians, and we do have the
power to do better, and to think better than most of us do.
Jesus said what we think,
that is what we are.
