GODLY GRACE TO RAISE OUR CHILDREN IN THIS GENERATION (Part 3)

Malachi 2:15a

Our part to tutor our Children on the way of God must not be neglected according to Proverb 22:6.
When we do our part, God is ready to fulfill His part.
Before God punished Eli in 1 Samuel 2:29-30, it was discovered, he honoured his children above God and God declared….”….Be far from Me, for them that honor me, I will honour and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed”
Our total obedience and honour of the laws of God prepares the path of the children.
Solomon started with the love of God and sacrificed as he saw his father done earlier in 1 Chronicles 29:20-21.
King Rehoboam the son of Solomon without wisdom and the fear of God, caused the division of Israel into two.
The Scriptures highlights many of the Kings of Israel/Judah who feared The Lord, but their Children after them do not thread their path and in the contrary some who do not fear God, had children that feared The Lord.
For our study King Asa of Judah followed the footsteps of David (1Kings 15:11) and begat Jehosaphat who followed the footsteps of his father..
In 2Kings 16:2 King Ahaz of Israel did not that which was right in the sight of God but gave birth to King Hezekiah, who walked in the ways of God.(2Kings 18:3, Isaiah 38:3)
With these few examples, we can deduce, ” So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy”( Romans 9:16).
God had power over us to make one vessel unto honor and another unto dishonor.(Romans 9:21)
