Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Prov. 31:30

Promises for your children

With so many having babies now...or having had them, and the count of grandchildren increasing, I again reflected on these promises from God's word for our children. Be blessed by what the Father tells us regarding our children and grandchildren, if we indeed, walk in the fear of God.

Isaiah 49:25 ... I will contend with those who contend with you and your children I will save.

Wow. I'll take that one!

I Corinthians 7:14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified (set apart for holiness) through his believing wife and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified (set apart for holiness) through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is THEY ARE HOLY!

He is going to give his all for the spouse and children of the believer so see that they make it to eternal life with Him.

Psalm 103:17 From everlasting to everlasting the Lord's love is with those who fear him and his righteousness with their children's children.

I know in my family, I had godly grandparents.... and we are receiving the blessing of their fear of God.

Amen
