Week #7 Resolve to Bless your Children

“May God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, that you may become a company of peoples. May He also give you the blessing of Abraham, to you and to your descendants with you.” Gen 28:3-4

Resolution Point #4: I WILL bless my children and teach them to love God with all of their hearts, all of their minds, and all of their strength.

How do we instill God's word in our kids lives?
1. God's word must be on our heart. Are you in the word daily? Do you walk with Him?
2. Training your kids must take place in the context of a close relationship. Do you have a relationship with them?

When should you teach the word to your kids?

 Deuteronomy 6:6-7 "These commandments I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. "
We are to be about the Father's business teaching our kids ALL the time. We do this by our words and more importantly by our actions.

The Three most powerful things you can give your kids are: Attention, Affirmation, and Affection

Make them feel valued with you time, tell them they are important and special, and tell them you LOVE them. Remember God wants to spend time with us, we are important to Him, and He gave His only Son for us. That is how much He loves us.

Courageous Challenge: Talk with your kids this week and “bless” them by telling them how much you love them and are proud of them.

Memory Verse: “Give me your heart, my son, and let your eyes delight in my ways” Proverbs 23:26

 
Be ready to go to battle for your kids!!!
 
Lead from the front!!
