New Life Broadway Church of Christ 2855 Broadway, Paducah, KY 42001 Volume 31, Number 25 June 22, 2014 How to Stimulate Our Families Psalm 127:1-5 Raising a family is one of the greatest blessings any mother or father could have. God is the one who blesses us with our children and we will answer to Him as to how we raised them. In 1 Samuel 1:10-11, Hannah prayed to the Lord for a child and she made a vow to God that she would give him to the Lord all the days of her life. Hannah recognized that it was God who would bless her with a child and that it was God to whom she should dedicate this child. Parents, have we dedicated our children to God? Psalm 127:3-4 says, “Behold, children are a gift of the LORD, the fruit of the womb is a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one’s youth.” Parents, are we guiding our children in the right direction? Has our family structure gone into a deficit? Is our commitment to marriage on shaky ground? Is the spiritual leadership of the father in the home going in the red? Do we have more mothers making a living instead of a home? Do our children know more about technology than about God? In order for our families to be stimulated, we parents must make sure we are building the right foundation. Our children are a gift from God and we will be held accountable as to how we build. Parents, the arrow is in our hands. The direction in which we lead them is vital. The foundation of the home is where our children are taught respect for God and others. The foundation of the home is where they feel love and discipline. The foundation of the home is where they are taught the Word of God. Parents, no one has a greater influence on the direction of our children than we do. Parents, we must submit ourselves under the authority of God. He should be the guide in establishing the foundation of every home.

He has given each of us the blueprint on how to build our homes. We must realize that we’re laboring in vain if the foundation is not built on God. We are accountable to God as to how we raise the precious gift He has given us. Continued on page 2... Continued from page 1... Prayers for the sick: Are we truly building our homes for God? Is your family under the authority of God? What are you laboring hard for everyday? Unless the Lord is the builder or stimulator of our homes, we will go deeper into the red. We can do it only if we have made up our minds to do it. Will we allow God to build our homes?
