Save the Children


In today's segment, we are talking about the importance and impact children have in our marriages. In fact, Children play a very significant role in our Marriages. It's our gift from God and our mandate to train, build and cultivate our siblings.
The scriptures tells us: Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Proverbs :22:6. That's right, it is our responsibility to do the training!
Often marriages are disrupted because of our lack of understanding of this responsibility. The family life, if you will is a well of life, if it is cultivated correctly. Our children actually represent us. They are our products. Our marriages reflect the principles and ideals that form the character of our children. It is our responsibility passed down from God, to " save the children". After all what they see from us, is what they will eventually do because of us!
Here's the point: if we allow our marriages to grow through the instructional teaching of the Holy scriptures, and we teach our children the same, we have built a foundation, a platform if you will, for our children to walk in the same paths. Truth of the matter, we can't do that without God.
In the book of Joshua, chapter one, the Lord admonishes Joshua to be careful not to turn from the book of the law handed down through Moses. . . . .then thou shalt make thy way prosperous and then thou shalt have good success. Verse 8.That's so important. Your obedience to God's laws and instructions actually puts your marriage in right standing with God, and ultimately . . . saves the children. Wow! . . . . the benefits of Marriage God's Way!
Consider this . . . if you are willing (key word) to allow your marriage to be sustained through the instructional teaching of God's Holy Word, you have already "Saved the Children" !

Think about that.....let the Lord Bless your day, real good!
