Home On The Rock. by FirstS2B(f): 4:37pm On Nov 22, 2015 |
Despite the fact that the world around us is full of ungodliness & sin multiplying, you can still have a godly home built on the Rock. It all begins with you as a person knowing the Lord through genuine repentance & faith in Christ's sacrifice at Calvary. That means you must be born anew to have Christ reign in your home. This should be followed by the evidence of the new life which is freedom from sin, presence of God in your life, love for God & man, obedience to God's word, love for spiritual things, & departure from anything that God does not approve of. Your friends, neighbours & all those who knew you before will notice the difference that Christ makes in your life. Having encountered Christ this way, you need to grow up in the faith by continually abiding in Christ, studying the bible, regular prayer life, fellowshipping with God's children always & sharing your faith with others. If you've not been married before, you'll have to pray to God to lead you to the person He has chosen for you. If you're married, you will have to live the christian life to draw your spouse too to the Lord if he/she has not been saved yet. The christian home is a place of love, peace, godliness, dependence on God & selflessness. No nagging, no cheating on one another, no strife or disagreement because Jesus rules in every heart. Children are taught in the way of the Lord & they don't follow the path of waywardness. Is your home a christian home? If yes, thank God for you. If not, you can invite Jesus into your heart & home today! Satan is busy fighting the home front of many today. You can always have the victory if we allow Jesus the full control of our hearts & lives. Why not invite Him into our heart & home now? He will come in & put out the fire of the devil from your home. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

THE SCHOOL CALLED MARRIAGE Marriage is the only school where you get the Certificate before you start. It's also a school where you will never graduate. It's a school without a break or a free period. It's a school where no one is allowed to drop out. It's a school you will have to attend every day of your life. It's a school where there is no sick leave or holidays. It's a school founded by God: 1.On the foundation of love. 2.The walls are made out of trust. 3.The door made out of acceptance. 4.The windows made out of understanding 5.The furniture made out of blessings 6.The roof made out of faith. Be reminded that you are just a student not the principal. God is the only Principal. Even in times of storms, don't be unwise and run outside. Keep in mind that, this school is the safest place to be. Never go to sleep before completing your assignments for the day. Never forget the C-word...Communicate. Communicate to your classmate and to the Principal If you find out something in your classmate (spouse) that you do not appreciate. Remember your classmate is also just a student not a graduate, God is not finished with him/her yet. So take it as a challenge and work on it together. Do not forget to study the Holy Book (the main textbook of this school). Start each day with a sacred assembly and end it the same way. Sometimes you will feel like not attending classes, yet you have to. When tempted to quit find courage and continue. Some tests and exams may be tough but remember the Principal knows how much you can bear and yet it's a school better than any other. It's one of the best schools on earth; joy, peace and happiness accompany each lesson of the day. Different subjects are offered in this school, yet love is the major subject. After all the years of theorizing about it, now you have a chance to practice it. To be loved is a good thing, but to love is the greatest privilege of them all. Marriage is a place of love, so love your spouse. More grace from God. 4 Likes 1 Share |

A CHRISTIAN HOME O give us homes built firm upon the Saviour, Where Christ is Head and Counsellor and Guide; Where every child is taught His love and favour, And gives his heart to Christ, the Crucified: How sweet to know that though his footsteps waver, His faithful Lord is walking by his side. O give us homes with godly fathers, mothers, Who always place their hope and trust in Him; Whose tender patience turmoil never bothers, Whose calm and courage trouble cannot dim; A home where each finds joy in serving others, And love still shines, though days be dark and grim. O give us homes where Christ is Lord and Master, The Bible read, the precious hymns still sung; Where prayer comes first in peace or disaster, And praise is natural speech to every tongue; Where mountains move before a faith that's vaster, And Christ sufficient is for old and young. O Lord our God, our homes are Thine forever! We trust to Thee their problems, toil, and care; Their bonds of love no enemy can sever If Thou art always Lord and Master there: Be Thou the center of our least endeavour Be Thou our Guest, our hearts and homes to share. 1 Like |

ALL YOUR ANXIETY Is there a heart o'er-bound by sorrow? Is there a life weighed down by care? Come to the cross, each burden bearing, All your anxiety - leave it there. All your anxiety, all your care, Bring to the Mercy seat, leave it there; Never a burden He cannot bear, Never a Friend like Jesus. No other Friend so keen to help you; No other Friend so quick to hear; No other place to leave your burden; No other one to hear your prayer. Come then, at once, delay no longer; Heed His entreaty, kind and sweet; You need not fear a disappointment; You shall find peace at the mercy seat. 1 Like |

FOUR STEPS TO LIFE
STEP 1 GOD’S LOVE
There are many problems in the world today.
Although peace, happiness and love are desired by
many, only very few know what it means to have
abundant life.
God loves you and He wants you to have abundant
life. God has a wonderful plan for your life. God
loves you because it is his nature to love. Many
today are not enjoying the love of God. Are you one
of such people? You will discover the reason.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and
to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and
that they might have it more abundantly.
STEP 2 MAN’S PROBLEM
John 10:10
Although man was created in the image of God and
was meant to live an abundant life, man got into
problem because of sin. Sin separates from God. It
also hinders us from enjoying the love of God. Over
the centuries, man has made many efforts in order
to be at peace with God. But all these efforts have
not helped man. Sin can be likened to a great wall
which separates from God. And with this wall, man’s
problem will remain.
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of
God.
Romans 3:23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is
eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 6:23
Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it
cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot
hear; But your iniquities have separated between
you and your God, and your sins have hid his face
from you, that he will not hear. Isaiah 59:1,2
STEP 3 GOD’S SOLUTION
What can we do to get man’s problem solved? Is
there a way out? God knows that we would not be
able to find a way out through our own efforts. He
provided the solution. His love for fallen man made
him to draw the plan of Salvation. He allowed His
Son, Jesus Christ, to suffer for us; so that through
the suffering and sacrifice of His Son we can pass
from death to life.
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that,
while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:8
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and
the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 14:6
But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love
wherewith he loved us; even when we were dead in
sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by
grace ye are saved
STEP 4 MAN’S RESPONSE
Ephesians 2:4,5
You have a part to play in other to benefit from
God’s love. You can not benefit unless you respond
personally. Salvation is God’s free gift. But, you must
receive this gift before you can enjoy it.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath
raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Romans 10:9
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock; if any man
hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to
him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Revelation 3:20
But as many as received him, to them gave he
power to become the sons of God, even to them that
believe on his name.
John 1:12
Are you ready to respond? Are you willing to receive
God’s free gift right now? Will you decide to receive
Christ now?
WHAT YOU MUST DO:
1. Admit that you are a sinner now.
2. Be willing to repent now.
3. Believe that Jesus died for your sins.
4. Go to God in prayers, repent and invite Jesus into
your life.
A SUGGESTED PRAYER
Almighty God, I thank you because you love me.
When I was lost in sin, you sent your Son Jesus
Christ to die for me. I believe that the blood He shed
was for my pardon. Today I repent of all my sins and
ask for forgiveness. Lord Jesus, come into my heart.
Save me now. I invite you into my heart today. Be
my Saviour and my Lord. Thank you for coming into
my heart according to your promise. In Jesus Name
I pray. (Amen).
HAVE YOU TAKEN THESE 4 STEPS?
Then you must:
1. Read the Word of God every day – Ps 119:9,11
2. Spend some time in prayer every day. – Phil 4:6
3. Fellowship with other believers in the Church so
that you can be cared for and grow up spiritually. –
Hebrews 10:25.
4. Yield your life to God, Witness for Christ and bring
others to Him – Mark 1:17. 2 Likes |

YOU AND YOUR ENVIRONMENT
God's will is that a home should be a haven from a
chaotic world. Part of the qualities of a good home is
a clean and lovely environment. This is necessary for
obvious reasons. A clean environment makes for
good health. Besides, nerves cannot be soothed in a
dirty and chaotic environment, neither can rest be
had in such a place. That God has called the woman
to be the overseer and keeper of the home is a great
responsibility: “That they may teach the young
women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love
their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers at
home . . .” (Titus 2: 4-5).
Charles is lucky to have a wife who takes this God-
given responsibility seriously. He had had a tiring day
and was glad to be returning home. The anticipation
of a warm welcome from his wife, Clara, and a
relaxing evening in his lovely home, took the bite off
the stress of being caught up in a traffic jam.
Suddenly he noticed a man waving at him excitedly
from the car next to his. He could not quite recognize
the person but because the traffic was at a standstill
the man came out of his car and dashed towards
him, calling his name. It was a name that only one
person called him - his best friend at the University.
Instantly, he realized that he was indeed the one. He
could hardly contain his excitement. He came out of
his car and they shook hands and embraced. They
had parted, after completing the compulsory
National Youth Service. Dave had gone abroad for
further studies and somehow they had lost touch
with each other. They had so much to discuss and the
traffic was hardly the place to do it, so Charles invited
his friend home.
They eventually drove through a gate into a fenced
compound in which there was a small bungalow. As
Dave stepped out of his car, he exclaimed: 'Charles, I
didn't know you had green fingers'. The view before
them was really beautiful. The front windows of the
bungalow were framed by bougainvillea in full
bloom. Ornamental plants and flowers created an
impression of coolness, serenity and beauty. 'I don't
have green fingers', Charles said, as they walked
towards the door. ‘What you see is the handiwork of
Clara, my wife.’ Clara welcomed the men at the door
and after the introductions, ushered the visitor into a
lovely and cosy sitting room. The room was not only
gleaming, it was furnished in soothing colours and
there was an inviting fragrance in the air. Soon, the
men were quite relaxed and refreshed as they
reminisced about the old days. When eventually Dave
stood up to go, he turned to the hostess and said,
'thank you for letting me share your lovely home'.
They saw him out and waved as he drove off.
As the rear-light of his car disappeared into the night,
Charles turned to his wife and said, 'thank you'. 'For
what?', she asked, laughing. But she knew the reason
and her heart bubbled with joy. She felt at that
moment that all her effort at making her home a
haven was not in vain. That her husband could bring
an important visitor home without first warning her
was a compliment indeed. He would not have done
that a few years back. In fact, Charles hardly stayed at
home. Her home then was disorganised and hardly
ever clean. She just could not keep up with all that
had to be done. She could remember the time she
quickly pushed dirt and clutter under the cupboard at
the sound of a knock at the door. Their bedroom was
anything but inviting. The kitchen floor was unsightly
and the shelves were full of junks. The kitchen sink
usually held unwashed plates. The compound was
full of litter. If there was any fragrance in the air then,
it was more likely to be the odour of unwashed plates
and clothes soaked in the bathroom for days. She felt
that with her job and little children to care for, she
could not do better and so accepted the situation as
it was. That was before she read an article on home
management that transformed her life and home.
Four things made it possible for her to apply the tips
she read in that article:
(1) Desire
The article that Clara read made her to see that part
of a woman's role as a helpmeet is to create and
maintain a comfortable home for her family. Right
then, a desire was born in her heart to have the
home of her dream. To have such a desire is to have
taken the first step towards having the home as God
intended it to be. Lack of desire hinders many women
from making any attempt at improving the condition
of their homes. They are quick to make flimsy
excuses instead.
(2) Decision
Having a desire for a good home is not just enough.
There must be a purposeful decision to have
something done for the necessary change in the
home and environment. Clara succeeded because
she planned. Lack of planning is one reason why
many women go to bed at night feeling tired and
frustrated. First, she went from room to room and
took note of what needed to be done. Taking her daily
schedule into consideration she divided the jobs into
those that should be done daily, every other day and
weekly.
(3) Determination
It takes determination to keep taking the steps that
will move you closer to achieving your goals. The first
place Clara tackled was her kitchen. It was
determination that kept her. She sorted, organised
and cleaned until her kitchen sparkled. There were
many reasons to give up, but she kept at it. The result
encouraged her to move to other parts of the house.
(4) Discipline
Lack of discipline is one of the greatest obstacles to
achieving our goals. There is no doubt that discipline
is the difference between what we want to be and
what we actually become. Discipline will make you
tackle that project rather than put it off. You may
have worked out a schedule for keeping the house in
shape but without discipline your plan will remain
just that - a plan. It will never come into reality.
The excerpts below on the home and the
environment that helped Clara change her home for
the better may also be of help to you.
1. Open the doors and windows to allow free air flow
in and out of the room.
2. Empty waste paper basket in or outside the rooms
regularly.
3. Sweep the floor regularly, reaching under all
pieces of furniture.
4. Dust all surfaces, doors, windows and furniture.
5. Tidy up the cushions and arrange arm and head
rest in the chairs.
6. Arrange books, furniture, newspapers, magazines,
and clothes properly.
7. Clear and clean the table after every meal,
removing any pieces of food.
8. Clean the tablemat and put them away.
9. Sweep off all pieces of food on the floor and mop
the floor.
10. Do not keep wet rags in the room. Always wash
and dry them outside.
11. Wash up your cooking utensils and dishes after
each meal preparation and service. Dirty plates will
give bad smell and attract flies and other insects.
12. Put fresh flowers in the vase, if possible, in the
living room.
Care of toilets and bathrooms includes:
1. Sweep and clean the floor regularly, removing all
debris including bits of sponge, broom or soap from
the bathroom daily.
2. Wash the bathtub and wash hand basin daily after
use. Use soft sponge/brush and mild abrasive e.g.
Vim.
3. Take towels out in the sun after use. Do not keep
wet towel on you or in your living room. It gives a
bad smell to the room.
4. Open the windows to allow air in and out of the
bathroom.
Care of home surroundings includes:
1. Sweep the surrounding every day and keep all
paths clean.
2. Empty all refuse from the house and its
surroundings into the refuse bin kept outside the
house. This should be done daily.
3. Keep the refuse bin area clean and ensure that
refuse is dumped into the bin and covered properly.
4. Do not leave empty cans, broken plates, cups,
bottles, waste and foodstuff lying about in the
surroundings.
5. Clean the drainage properly and do not allow
stagnant water in your home environment.
It must be pointed out that since homes differ, your
plan will depend on the kind of home you live in.
There are however, general tips that should be of
help to any woman whatever kind of home she lives
in. They are:
(1) Ability to Learn
Make effort to acquire useful ideas on home making.
Clara read books and magazines on homemaking.
Her lovely garden and potted plants were the result
of tips she picked up from books on gardening. She
also got tips on cleaning and decor from women
whose homes she admired.
(2) Employ Help
You can employ paid help where possible. Members
of the family should also lend a helping hand. Where
children are grown up they should be assigned
specific duties in the home.
(3) Choose your Tools
To transform your home, you need some working
materials. Your need will depend on the kind of home
you live in. Some of these are: dust rags, mop,
disinfectant, cleaning agents suitable for kitchen,
bathroom/toilet etc, air freshener, toilet brush,
furniture wax, gardening tools, long brooms etc.
(4) Spot Clean Daily
To spot clean is to take care of little messes
anywhere in the house, instead of waiting until the
day that part of the house is scheduled for cleaning.
You can, for example, quickly tidy up the sitting room
before going to bed at night. Put things in their
proper places, arrange the throw cushions etc.
As you adhere to the above guidelines, your home
environment will become an inviting haven and a
model for other women to emulate. However, as you
strive to keep your external environment clean, bear
in mind that your internal environment, comprising
your heart and mind, needs to be kept tidy too. The
bible says all the filth of sin emanates from the heart
and defiles the man: “For from within, out of the
heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries,
fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness,
wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye,
blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things
come from within, and defile the man” (Mark 7:21,
22). To have a clean internal environment devoid of
all these filthy traits, you must surrender your heart
and life to the Lord Jesus Christ for cleansing in His
blood. Acknowledge your internal filth and ask the
Lord Jesus to forgive and cleanse you. Thereafter,
you must maintain a clean heart by constantly
feeding on God's word, avoiding things that could
pollute your mind and praying to God for grace to
maintain a clean heart and mind always |

THE INFALLIBLE CHART And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up”(Deutronomy 6: 6&7). The Bible, the book of God is complete and sufficient for moulding and shaping the life of children. From Genesis to Revelation, we read instances on child training, for “Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word” (Psalm 119:9). Timothy’s life was shapened by the word of God. And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus”(2 Timothy; 3:15). David from childhood allowed the word to be a “. . . lamp unto (his) feet, and a light unto (his) path” (Psalm 119:105). The Bible gives instruction on the mind of God, and the way of salvation which is the escape route from sin. It also gives instructions and corrections in righteousness. Other books and their principles in child training may fail but Bible principles will never fail. Parents should give their children an all-round balanced training – physically, socially, academically and spiritually, but the greatest and most rewarding is the spiritual upbringing. Academic excellence for instance is good but without Christ it amounts to vanity. There is a sincere relationship between children’s attitude to the Scriptures and their parents’ attitude to it. The parents need the Scripture as the authority and source book for the communication of their training. Their own life must be a living Bible showing forth the glory of God, so that the children in turn will imperceptibly imbibe Bible principles by simply watching their life-style and conduct. Apart from this, she must, as a matter of purpose, teach her children to cultivate the habit of attentively listening to the word of God, wholeheartedly believing it, totally receiving it and obeying it fully. The child must be taught to completely accept the word of God, even when it appears to be contrary to reason. Once God has said it, he should honourably obey it. However, the parents themselves should try to explain as much as they know and should not shy away from asking people who have a deeper knowledge of the word where they cannot answer their children’s questions. Your child’s questions might put you off-guard if you are not expecting such surprises. The child should believe in God’s love, in the gift of His Son and in the life through Him. Teach children to accept these as unchanging realities which they would experience as their faith in the word grows stable. Teach them to look upon every promise, every truth in the word as personally addressed to them to be the foothold of their faith, meant to make their life stronger. Faith depends upon knowledge. Teach your children to know and follow the brief rules for benefiting from Bible reading; to READ IT THROUGH; PRAY IT IN; WRITE IT DOWN; WORK IT OUT; PASS IT ON. He should memorize Bible verses and recite Bible promises for they must be fulfilled. Using the following four colours and the song to accompany it, he can be taught to recite the salvation truth thus: Black – Romans 3:23 Red – John 3:16 White – Isaiah 1:18 Gold – John 14:2-3 Once my heart was black with sin Until the Saviour came in His precious blood, I know Has washed me whiter than snow And in His word I’m told I’ll walk the streets of Gold Wonderful, wonderful day! He washed my sins away. Timothy knew the sacred writings of holy Scriptures which was able to make him wise unto salvation. Parents must seek to give the child a clear and intelligent explanation of the great truths of salvation. The parent must not exclusively entrust this great task to the school or church. Expose them to Bible reading habit early in life by keeping them in the children church, or Sunday school. Let them have a notebook for jotting. Use pictures to teach them to aid their understanding. Tell them Bible stories to arouse their interests. Buy Christian comics for them to read. Simplified biographies of godly characters should also be made available. Prayerfully and lovingly lead each child to Christ, giving attention to one child at a time. The child should know that Jesus was crucified for her sins and that of all mankind. He should be told that through confession and repentance, salvation is obtained. He should also be made to know that all these truth can only be obtained from the Bible. The word of God is the infallible chart; tell the child if he follows it, he will never miss the road to success. The children should be active participants in regular enriching family devotion and should observe their personal quiet time. This is how godly characters are developed, godly instructions received and intimate fellowship with God is strengthened. Parents should prepare very well, then nourish them with the word of God and ensure their active participation. Teach the word simply for easy understanding. Make interesting illustrations directly related to the passage read. Make not the family devotion a time of preaching at or lashing at the children for their wrong doings but to reveal the mercies of God and encourage them to walk in His love. If they misbehave, correct them immediately and do not wait for the hour of devotion, when you would try to apply every verse read to a child’s misdeed. The Scriptural food should be eaten with a free heart daily. The greatest knowledge is that of understanding the word of God through which eternal life is obtained in Christ. The Bible is a flawless guide to living. The right knowledge of the Scriptures combats wrong teachings, false doctrines and “oppositions of science”, falsely so-called. A good knowledge of the Scriptures empowers the child against occultism and cultists. The Psalmist says “Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee” (Psalm 119:11). Every parent is accountable to God, because “children are an heritage of the Lord, and the fruit of the womb is his reward” (Psalm 127:3). Any parent who fails in this God-given responsibility of raising godly children will not be guiltless before God. Parents should see training in line with the Bible as a duty that they must not shirk. A parent’s love or lip service to or outright hatred cannot be hid from the children. If a mother’s obedience to the word of God goes directly proportional to her creed, her teachings and training in the word will be less stressful and more result-oriented. Dear Parent, the word of God is your sure guide to effective child training. It should be your syllabus, your principles as well as your child’s most prized heritage from the heavenly Father. It is the infallible chart which is able to make them ride safely through the narrow right path and victoriously over the storms of life. You have been commissioned to lead your children into the knowledge of the Bible and to the love and possession of its treasures. Make it a matter of prayer, asking for wisdom to rightly divide the word of truth to them. Let the word of God dwell richly in you first. Then pass it on to your children and watch to see them richly blessed by God. “Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little” (Isaiah 28:9-10). |

HOME SAFETY RULES & FIRST AID
Presumably, when you had your quiet time/family
devotion this morning, one of the requests you made
to God was for your safety throughout the day. Of
course, there is nothing wrong in praying and
believing God for maximum protection over our lives
and property. In fact, without relying on God for
safety at all times, the unthinkable may happen when
we least expect it (Psalm 127: 1). But most times, we
fail to realize that even the scripture affirms that
"faith without works is dead (meaningless and
unprofitable)" (James 2:20). And this implies that
faith alone can neither solve all of life's problems nor
provide us with everything we need. There are some
basic steps that we must take to fully enjoy all the
blessings the Lord has promised us - and these
include our protection and safety within the home
environment.
Many today feel so comfortable and secure in their
homes that they ignore basic safety rules and
precautions. Worse still, such inexcusable neglect
often happens in homes that harbour not only strong
and energetic adults, but also children and elderly
people who are quite vulnerable. And the result?
Avoidable domestic accidents, some of which could
be life-threatening!
Taking steps to learn and adhere to home safety
precautions will prevent a lot of physical,
psychological and financial damage. Helpful home
safety tips from various experts in home
management have been carefully compiled here to
make our homes safer. Please, take time to go
through them and make every necessary adjustment
in your home. 1 Like |
