Journey to “A better life” TO GET THE MOST OUT OF THIS “JOURNEY” “U” MUST BE SPIRITUALLY PREPARED

For A Better Life Oh, do not pray for easy lives! Pray to be stronger Vessels! Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers; pray for powers equal to your tasks! Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle. But you shall be a miracle. Every day you shall wonder at yourself, at the richness of life which has come in you by the grace of God.

TRIVIA QUESTION Who staged a praying contest between two religions?

TRIVIA answer Who saw twenty-five men worshiping the sun? “Ezekiel” Eze. 8:16 “And he brought me into the inner court of the Lord’s house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs towards the temple of the Lord, and their faces towards the east; and they worship- ped the sun towards the east”

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life It’s about making the two-some work The Responsibilities Of The Pair

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life I.The Sustaining Qualities A. God’s word to children (Eph. 6:1-3) Eph. 6:1 “Children obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right” The requirement is “obedience” The Qualifier is “To the Lord” They are to receive this training for obedience from the “Word of God” 1. The reward to the child… Eph. 6:3 “…that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth” It’s just natural that obedience to good Godly instructions will bring the child nothing but a wealth of Godly blessings!!!

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life I.The Sustaining Qualities B. God’s word to Parents (Eph. 6:4) “Fathers, do not exasperate your children, instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord” Ensure what you call “Loving Your Children” is not the type that puts undo and meaningless stress on their behalf. Parents treat your children right in God’s eye sight and you can not go wrong with them 1. Hook your wagon to this star… Pro. 24:3 “By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established” Think!, as a parent, before you act. Remember; You are the adult in all these situations. You have already learned from experience—Use It!!

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life I.The Sustaining Qualities B. God’s word to Parents 1. Hook your wagon to this star… a) Parents—Simply Do This…Pro. 22:6 “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it” Be particularly attentive to each individual need of each individual child. As the parent you should be in sync with what each of your children is special at doing. Mold them towards that end… b) Something to remember…. Punishment=PainDiscipline=Change&Growth Punishment=The PastDiscipline=The Future Punishment=AngerDiscipline=Love

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life I.The Sustaining Qualities B. God’s word to Parents 1. Hook your wagon to this star… c) Now you should understand This… Pro. 13:24 “He who spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is careful to discipline him” Be sure you hold a “Rod” of direction as directed by the Bible… 2. If they fear you; Watch yourself!!... 1 Jn. 4:18 “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love”

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life I.The Sustaining Qualities C. God’s word to employees (Eph. 6:5-8) Eph. 6:5 “…obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, with sincerity of heart just as you obey Christ” 1. The Common Thread…1 Tim. 1:10 “for adulterers and perverts, for slave traders and liars and perjurers— and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine” 2. Work the job; Don’t let it work you! Phil. 2:14 “Do everything without complain- ing or arguing” 3. Let this be your motivator… Col. 3:23 “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men”

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life I.The Sustaining Qualities C. God’s word to employees 4. And this is the reason why!!!... Col. 3:24 “Since you know you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving” D. God’s word to employers (Eph. 6:9) “And masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them, since you know that He who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with Him”

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life I.The Sustaining Qualities D. God’s word to employers 1. Be careful of holding back…Jm. 5:4 “Look! The wages you failed to pay the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty” Be honest in your dealings with those who provide a service for you…

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life —Lead By Example— Being a good parent is what calls out to my spirit. After not making the grade in the life of my children during their more impressionable years; I’ve come to know and understand that it takes more than just a loud voice and stern hand to train them. I so would love to make things better than how I started. In my case getting older did mean getting better as father and provider. I just thank God that he put up with me long enough to make a difference. I really do understand the training command now. —!!show them how; along with tell them how!!—

Journey to “A Better Life” Improving Family and Work Life WHAT IT SAYS This is my Bible, I am who my Bible say I am, I can do what my Bible say I can do. I have what my Bible say I have, my Bible teaches my spirit, my spirit teaches my mind, and my mind teaches my body. My Bible is full of promises and commandments, my Bible has good and bad examples. How do I know my Bible is true? By comparing scripture with scripture and spiritual things with spiritual things. I study my Bible to show myself approved, rightly dividing the Word of God.
