And all the people would get up early in the morning
to come to Him in the temple to listen to Him. Luke 21:38
If a person
is living and walking according to God’s commandments and scripture, then
listen closely and let them teach you something from God’s Word that is new,
fresh and alive. For the word of God
is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far
as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to
judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Hebrews 4:12. Be sure you listen and follow God’s teachings.
Training Tip – Get your family up early on Saturday or Sunday
morning and take an early morning walk. Talk to them about how people got up
early to go hear Jesus teach. In the Old Testament it gives teaching about
teaching your family (sons—but this includes daughters, too) God’s Word…
You shall therefore
impress these words of mine on your heart and on your soul; and you shall bind
them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontals on your forehead. You
shall teach them to your sons, talking of them when you sit in your house and
when you walk along the road and when you lie down and when you rise up. You
shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates…. Deuteronomy 11:18-20. The
Jewish people have a great custom of putting scripture in little metal or
ceramic vial by their door—a mezuzah. Write out some scripture and place it by
your door—as a remembrance for what the Lord has done for you. As you attach
the scripture to your wall, praise the Lord and thank Him for who His is, and for
the home and family He has provided for you.
Lord Jesus, may my children and grandchildren grow
to love Your Word and find it more precious than gold and sweeter than honey as
it says in Psalm 19:10.
