How Your 3 Months Can Usher Your Children into a Move of God
Parents, this word comes out of lot of desperation and he who has ears let him hear. Before 2022 ends, can I invite you to surrender your three months October, November and December to Jesus? In this season, would you partner with the Holy Spirit to usher your children into the move of God?
Here are two things the Lord has been impressing upon my heart:
First, Seek God in “Daily”
For 3 months when Obed Edom, a non-Israelite (2 Sam 6:11,12) hosted God in his house, what never happened in his lifetime happened – ALL that belonged to him was blessed including His children. The Bible says Obed Edom had 8 sons, plus grandsons, and in all 62 capable men and leaders in his household who served in the house of God! (1 Chr 26:8). He was so blessed in every area of his life that this news spread and reached David’s ears, the then king of Israel.
These 3 months can I encourage you to pray in tongues for a minimum of half an hour for revival in your children? It’s not about the months or duration, but our consistency and commitment in seeking God’s face daily. You see, it is easy to walk when there is no commitment, but commitment involves a cost. And God is waiting to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose hearts are fully committed to Him (2 Chr 16:9).
Just as addictions are formed out of habits and habits are birthed out of “dailies”, your daily time alone with the Lord will transform your life first, and soon it will overflow into your children.
Second, Take limits off God
It’s not God who is withholding a revival in your children’s life, but it’s we limiting a revival seeking God with our very own words (Pro 18:21).
“You will never change.” “You will never listen.” “Why are you so irritating?” “You are so far from God” – 3 months, intentionally change your language towards your children. Don’t even limit your thinking and pray prayers “to see your children attending church”. But beyond that, see your children walking with the living God, and becoming the church!
What years of teacher’s training, parents meet up, or your disciplinary efforts has not done, your surrender to God will do.
Parents, I believe this season is a very important. Remember half an hour praying in tongues daily for revival in your children. As you do something you have never done before, your eyes will see something that you have never seen before!
