Today’s Devotional Theme Supernatural Parenting!
Daily ScriptureDeuteronomy 6:4-5
“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.”
Encouragement
Truly, the greatest thing we could teach the children that we influence each day is to love the Lord their God with all their heart, mind, soul and strength! We learn from Deuteronomy 6 the greatest commandment of all: to love our God. What if the central focus of your life, your marriage, your household was to love God with everything you are? What would future generations of your bloodline look like? What would the impact of the lives of your neighbors, friends, co-workers around you look like because you made the Joshua declaration: “as for me and my house we will serve the Lord!”?
Apply God’s Word
Every day we get to influence and impact our children to live their lives in the ways of the Lord. Our responses or reactions to life teach and impact our children way more than the words that we train them with. When we live a life saturated with the Lord's unconditional love, that saturation will overflow and saturate our children. Then their saturation will saturate others and the love of the Father reaches lives we've never even met or seen before. Each and every response that we make has the ability to point our children toward our source of strength for each day, our Heavenly Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Let's be real with where we are; if we need to repent and turn from sin in order to get back on the path of righteousness, then let's do it with encouragement and passion to raise supernatural children. And then run with that passion and lead our children along this path of righteousness for Jesus' sake.
Come into His Presence
Heavenly Father, I love You with all of me. All my strength, my devotion, my thoughts, I choose to honor You. Help me to lead others in this passionate life with You. In Jesus’ Name, amen.
