Call to Arms to Parents 1

I preached a series from 2 Timothy about children and youth in modern times. Folks, this is a word from the Lord! It is straight out of the Bible. It was illuminated to me for you. Don’t be so tired of “calls to arms.” Don’t be so lazy. Don’t over look this. You children, grandchildren and the world you live in is at stake. Surely, this is more visible after the events of past weeks?

We need to invest in patiently teaching our children.

Full series is available at www.greatshalom.org in the “store.”

Encourage Yourself

Maybe my most favorite cast of the past. We are all about encouraging you. Please be encouraged to have faith that God does want total well-being for your children. Whether you find a totally miraculous healing or miracle situation, or it is a healing or triumph of faith or faith to find a witty solution, it is all good. We will take it. We won’t, however, resign ourselves to our children not having what they need. Hear a Bible exhortation — remembering that if there is a God command, then there is God help to do it.

Turning the Hearts of the Parents to the Children and the Hearts of the Children to the Parents

Following our reflection on the children killed by Herod, let’s replay this episode from 2010 or so. A local young man talks about his father, who was, btw, not just a children’s author but respected as sort of a prophet in town. In the intervening time, the father has passed and the young man is now a father. Thus is life. We still enjoy the words of wisdom: turning hearts toward love.

This ministry would encourage everyone to step toward care for children. Support those who care for children. Consider children during your plans for revival.

BTW, the Spanish speaking world, and most of the older churches are celebrating “Reyos Magos” or the Magi Kings. Let’s be wise… for the sake of the children.

Pattern of Satan Attacking Children — Means to be Encouraged

Wow! I’m getting new things to share with you, with some encouragement. We already have made the announcement that we are going to do some re-branding, but wanted to squeeze this in. This is Bible revelation. And surely it speaks to moms and educators who are helping children with learning problems.

People I respect, Pastors Mahesh and Bonne Chavda say that they learned from their mentors that when Satan is attacking the most, that is the time to look up, that Satan sees what you may not: God is about to move. Kevin Zadai, also, talks about demons seeing angelic activity that humans may not. Same result.

Now I’ve seen a pattern in the Bible. Satan attacks children when he thinks a deliverer is about to come. We see attacks on children. Not saying your kid will be the messiah. Not agreeing with the New Age doctrine that came out oh in the lat 1990s that all the disabled children were blue children. No. What I am saying, is that in these times of great attacks, God has a plan, God wins, and so be encouraged.

It is time that we intentionally work on love, intentionally turn our hearts to our children, turn our hearts to God. Do not lose heart! Look up! God has the whole thing written beforehand. YAY! God is good. God cares a lot about children. And your ministry as a mom, as an educator, is vital. Perhaps the most important ever.
