PREPARING CHILDREN FOR THE FUTURE

PreparingChildrenWhat counsel do you put into your children’s lives? I want to put God’s counsel, don’t you? Proverbs 19:20, 21 says: “Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end. There are many devices in a man’ heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.”

We have plenty of man’s counsel all around us. We are bombarded with media propaganda and liberal education for our children. Our public schools no longer teach from a biblical foundation, but from a humanistic philosophy. Is this really what we want for our children? Is this what God intends for our children?

Rather, God holds us responsible for what goes into our children’s minds and hearts. Do they receive a godly education each day? The teaching that enables them to be wise in their latter end? The instruction that prepares them to continue walking in the ways of God as they leave our homes?

God’s counsel stands; humanistic wisdom fades.

God needed 40 years to get Moses’ Egyptian education out of his system before He could use Him to lead His people out of slavery. And he still faced opposition when he stood in Pharaoh’s court. Moses told Pharaoh he was taking the people out of Egypt, a three day journey, to sacrifice to the Lord. Pharaoh tried to get him to leave the children behind, but Moses would not compromise. He would not go to serve the Lord without all the children with them (Exodus 10:8-11).

God’s instruction is “the way of life” (Proverbs 6:23 and Matthew 7:13, 14). Man’s ways lead to deception and destruction (Proverbs 14:12; 16:25; and Deuteronomy 30:19).

Are you choosing life for your children?
