SECURE A FUTURE FOR THE CHURCH
Deut 6:4-10; Exodus 10:9; Jer 29:11;
The Lord God is passing a
very powerful message to
the church with the help of
the holy spirit, that the future
of the church which is the
body of Christ Jesus lies in
the youth, After God had shown diversities
of wonders to King Pharaoh and his
officials, they open a negotiation for the
children of Israel to go, there are some
points I want us to reach from the passage
and how it relates with the church.
Therefore in verse 9, Moses said, "We will
go with our young and old, with our sons
and daughters" it means "that where so
ever we are going, we are going with our
future, so know that leaving their children in
Egypt is similar to leaving their future in
Slavery. My dear beloved Brethren in
Christ, it is our sole responsibilities to stand
up now and secure the future of the church.
Therefore, I have some four reasons how to
secure a future for the church below.
1) The leaders and elders of the church
today must train up the youth for the future
task. This can be achieved by monitoring of
our children and youth. Children are a
reflection of their parents. Godly children
are products of great homes. Good homes
are products of great values. In a good
home, the fear of God is always taught to
every member of the family.
2) Contact and Impartation; this is the
same way the Prophet Elijah transferred his
mantle of leadership to Prophet Elisha. The
Pastors and leaders of the church should
always organize programs which will offer the
youth opportunities to transfer their mantle of
leadership to the youth.
3) The children must be given opportunity
to display and showcase their God-given
abilities and talents and by so doing the
church will discover their various areas of
spiritual calling.
4) Parents and Guardians also have the
responsibilities of training their children in the
fear of God, by teaching them. Moses taught
the children of Israel and said, you shall love
your God with all your heart, with all your soul
and with all your strength, and you shall teach
them diligently to your children and you shall
talk to them where ever you go.
However, the youth must live a Holy life which
will please the Lord God and we must flee
from sins of fornication and any form of
wickedness. We should live a life of truth and
love, a life which God will see and be filled
perpetually with joy and gladness in His heart.
Children are the products of good Homes.
Proverbs 22:6.
Thank you.
