      GOD BLESSES YOU WHEN YOU . . .

      Instruct Your Children in His Word

      97807180189_0010_002.jpg

      Hear, my children, the instruction of a father,

      And give attention to know understanding;

      For I give you good doctrine:

      Do not forsake my law.

      When I was my father’s son,

      Tender and the only one in the sight of my mother,

      He also taught me, and said to me:

      "Let your heart retain my words;

      Keep my commands, and live."

      PROVERBS 4:1–4

      All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.

      2 TIMOTHY 3:16

      For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

      HEBREWS 4:12

      A wise man will hear and increase learning,

      And a man of understanding will attain wise counsel,

      To understand a proverb and an enigma,

      The words of the wise and their riddles.

      The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge,

      But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

      My son, hear the instruction of your father,

      And do not forsake the law of your mother;

      For they will be a graceful ornament on your head,

      And chains about your neck.

      PROVERBS 1:5–9

      Give ear, O my people, to my law;

      Incline your ears to the words of my mouth.

      I will open my mouth in a parable;

      I will utter dark sayings of old,

      Which we have heard and known,

      And our fathers have told us.

      We will not hide them from their children,

      Telling to the generation to come the praises of the LORD,

      And His strength and His wonderful works that He has done.

      For He established a testimony in Jacob,

      And appointed a law in Israel,

      Which He commanded our fathers,

      That they should make them known to their children;

      That the generation to come might know them,

      The children who would be born,

      That they may arise and declare them to their children,

      That they may set their hope in God,

      And not forget the works of God,

      But keep His commandments;

      And may not be like their fathers,

      A stubborn and rebellious generation,

      A generation that did not set its heart aright,

      And whose spirit was not faithful to God.

      PSALM 78:1–8

      My son, give attention to my words;

      Incline your ear to my sayings.

      Do not let them depart from your eyes;

      Keep them in the midst of your heart;

      For they are life to those who find them,

      And health to all their flesh.

      PROVERBS 4:20–22

      "All flesh is as grass,

      And all the glory of man as the flower of the grass.

      The grass withers,

      And its flower falls away,

      But the word of the LORD endures forever."

      1 PETER 1:24–25

      "Now therefore, listen to me, my children,

      For blessed are those who keep my ways.

      Hear instruction and be wise,

      And do not disdain it.

      Blessed is the man who listens to me,

      Watching daily at my gates,

      Waiting at the posts of my doors.

      For whoever finds me finds life,

      And obtains favor from the LORD."

      PROVERBS 8:32–35

      I will go in the strength of the Lord GOD;

      I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only.

      O God, You have taught me from my youth;

      And to this day I declare Your wondrous works.

      Now also when I am old and grayheaded,

      O God, do not forsake me,

      Until I declare Your strength to this generation,

      Your power to everyone who is to come.

      PSALM 71:16–18

      Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking, as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby.

      1 PETER 2:1–2

      97807180189_0010_002.jpg

      Teach Your Children to Pray

      97807180189_0010_002.jpg

      "And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.

      "Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. In this manner, therefore, pray:

      Our Father in heaven,

      Hallowed be Your name.

      Your kingdom come.

      Your will be done

      On earth as it is in heaven.

      Give us this day our daily bread.

      And forgive us our debts,

      As we forgive our debtors.

      And do not lead us into temptation,

      But deliver us from the evil one.

      For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

      MATTHEW 6:5–13

      You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.

      And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.

      DEUTERONOMY 6:5–7

      So Jesus answered and said to them, "Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

      And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.

      MARK 11:22–25

      Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

      MATTHEW 7:7–8

      Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness!

      You have relieved me in my distress;

      Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

      PSALM 4:1

      These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

      Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.

      1 JOHN 5:13–15

      Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

      PHILIPPIANS 4:6–7

      Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

      1 THESSALONIANS 5:16–18

      Give heed to the voice of my cry,

      My King and my God,

      For to You I will
