CAC Living Water Daily Devotional 22/8/17 Children :god's Called Axe by Nobody: 8:28am On Aug 22, 2017
*CAC LIVING WATER DAILY DEVOTIONAL...*
*Date:* Tuesday, August 22, 2017

*Topic:* CHILDREN: GOD'S BATTLE-AXE
*Read:* Jeremiah 51:20-23

*MEMORISE:* _Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb is a reward._ *(Psalms 127:3)*

*EXPOSITION*
A battle-axe is anything in the hand of the warrior that is capable of bringing down the enemy. Every warrior goes to battle with weapons of warfare, trusted, effective and reliable. This world is a battlefield and a place of darkness. Every child of God has the opportunity or choice of being God's battle-axe or not.

No child ever comes into the world by accident. You may not have planned the conception of that child of yours. Yet, God did and knows best, what He brought him/her to accomplish for Him in the world *(Jeremiah 1:5)*. Just that we need to work with Him to discover, develop and properly harness that purpose of His, for the child.

The divine purpose in creating your child is for him/her to bring glory, honour and praise to God. He wants to use that child to fight the devil to stand still in this place of darkness, called the world. The fact that you are a godly parent does not make your child(ren) automatically godly. You must lead them to Christ as early as possible; catch them young before the devil takes hold of them. Train them to be acquainted with God, His ways and His dealings. Motivate them to develop strong personal interest in worshipping Him. Give them appropriate instructions, corrections and discipline in line with His Word (Jer. 35). Teach them Bible doctrine and principles, and then commit them to God, the MASTER DESIGNER. You can never regret doing that *(Proverbs 22:6; 29:17)*.

*PRAYER POINTS*
*1.* Lord, lay Your hands on my children, so that their lives will bring glory to Your name, now, till eternity.
*2.* Father, as a child in Your hand, help me to bring gain to Your kingdom, with the way I live my life.
*3.* Pray for all the children in our mission houses, that God should make them His own weapons of warfare that would bring great gain to His kingdom.

*EXTRA READING FOR TODAY:* Judges 2-6

Remain Blessed!
