Charged as Children

Read:  Psalm 127 / Proverbs 7 / 1 Samuel 14 / Mark 9 

 

Psalm 127:3-5 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD… As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man… they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

Proverbs 7:24 Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.

1 Samuel 14:6 And Jonathan said… Come… for there is no restraint to the LORD to save by many or by few.

Mark 9:35,36 If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all. And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them… when he had taken him… in his arms.

 

As arrows from a mighty man,

Our children should be raised to fight. 

This is our Savior’s battle plan

To put the enemy to flight.

 

A child learns to place his trust

In power greater than his own. 

No wonder Jesus said we must

Be child-like to make Him known.
