Parents you are always pointing your kids to what’s important. Beliefs dictate behavior.
“Jesus entered the temple courts & drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers…” Matt 21:12 This passage often times is used to give license to act a fool, but Jesus wasn’t acting a fool but rather stopping the foolish.
“So the last will be first, and the first last.” Matt 20:16 One aspect that I love about this passage is in God’s grace there is only measuring tape. You don’t get what you deserve but what He generously gives. This Grace moves you to service & to be viewed as a stewardship.
“My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food….” Pslam 63:5 24 years ago I went to Philly and ate a cheese steak.😍 It satisfied me so much that every cheese steak since is compared to the one I ate. When stacked up to Jesus, nothing compares or is better. #Jesus
old growth wood = better stability & durability. new growth wood = rot & warp after 20 yrs There is no fast track to parent disciple making. Don’t dilute or get lazy discipling your children. It takes time and intentionality. #NextGen
What could be more revolutionary in a community than a collection of families raising kids to be friends & followers of Christ together? The Lord working through large-scale family discipleship would revitalize a church & revolutionize an entire society. #familydiscipleshipbook
but Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.” Matt 19:4 Many wanted their children to be healed by Jesus. But here, their desire is for them to be blessed. Humble Needy Poor in spirit Faith Come all!
When I read Matthew 18:10-14 I think of Romans 5:8. Not cleaned up. Not put together. Not some what perfect. When we strayed…He didn’t despise us, just loved us. This my friend should compel you (2 Corinthians 5:14) to live a life that glorifies Him.
LET’S GO! “And if he finds it, truly, I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never went astray.” - Matthew 18:13 Jesus is the good shepherd. He finds the strays and does not despise or look down on them but rejoices when they are found. #Jesus

“Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come! - Matthew 18:7 Stumbling. There no fun there. Only cut up knees and bruises. To cause stumbling is to be self seeking. Be humble. #Jesus
Who’s the GOAT? “Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 18:4 Children aren’t phony, not great a deceiving, not popular (Jewish culture), and an unconcerness for popularity. To be great, you must be humble. #Jesus #Kingdom
Fear = what if Faith = even if “Believing Gods absolute power changes our perspective.” @pastordhm
Fear focuses on the what if. #anxiety God says in the midst of the fear. I am always present. You are not alone @pastordhm
Jesus didn’t die boldly and publicly for us to live cowardly and secretly.
Eph. 6:4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them (nourish) up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. Daddies this is your job(24/7) So how? - Patience (rest in God’s will) - Grace (Gospel centerness) - Faithfulness (diligent with your character)

When you experience a God moment or realized His Solverign hand your 1st response is not to write a book but to worship. Matthew 17:6 When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. Take a moment, think deeply about the Lord and WORSHIP. #Jesus
We may not come perfect but when you come to the perfect place-Jesus. He is enough. “The persistent outcast” Then Jesus said to her, “Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed at that moment. - Matt 15:28 Be persistent…Chase Jesus!
Providence and Grace🙏
Mike Johnson was almost aborted. He was the result of an unplanned pregnancy. But by God’s grace, his mother let him live. He just helped defund the very place that could have ended his life: Planned Parenthood. God works in mysterious ways.
