YOU ARE RAISED AS SON

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God
Romans 8:14(KJV)
Main Text:

One of the lessons in the book of Habakkuk was centered on vision. For us at THE FATHER’S HOSUSE, our vision is raising sons. Beloved, you will never raise children for the enemy in Jesus’ name. You will never labor for the sons of the stranger to harvest in Jesus’ name. In today’s further reading, we read about Jacob preferring the produces instead of the consumables. He chose wives for wages instead of money that is expendable. He knows that his wives would produce children for him. We found that Jacob determined the lives of animals yet unborn. He outsmarted his father –in-law Laban in breeding the animals. Jacob bred future breeders. What manner of children are you raising? The effort you make today will outlive you so there is need to live good legacies for generations to come after us.

First and foremost, God honored His covenant with Abraham, Jacob’s grandfather. What kind of covenant do you have with Jesus, beloved? Do you fervently pray for your children? The bad destiny of any wayward child can be redeemed in the place of prayers and the best you can do is to pray.

  In addition, you can determine destiny by what you see, I mean your vision. In Gen 15:3-6, God showed Abraham the stars, equating them with his children to come. Your vision will determine the destiny of your children. If your vision is to eat everything you have or to cause strife, then your children will inherit nothing but strife just like King Saul’s error, in I Sam. 15:1-3, King David’s treachery in II Sam. 11&12 brought fornication, incest, rebellion, and murder to his children. What manner of sons and daughters are you raising? Can you take time to look back into your family? Are you really supposed to be at this level or should have gone far beyond this level? Whatever you want to make of your children’s future lies in your hand. Secure their future and please God with that.

Prayer: Lord, may my children become greater than I in Jesus name.
