LOVE WORTH FINDING 30TH JULY 2025 WEDNESDAY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE BY ADRIAN ROGERS
TOPIC: What Our Children Really Need
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6
PONDER THIS
King David sinned terribly, but when God convicted him, he repented and cried out to God for mercy. On the other hand, Pharaoh was a fool. When God judged Pharaoh, Pharaoh hardened his heart further. When your child is going through rebellion and acting like a fool, it is easy to give the biggest punishment you can think of and forget it! The problem is, all you’re going to do is to make him or her hate you more. A hundred stripes on the back of a fool will not do any good: it’s not going to change anything.

God gave you His Word to guide your life and equip you to guide theirs. If I could start over parenting my children, I would saturate them in the Proverbs. I would teach them the Beatitudes so that they might learn these simple, basic truths. They need much more than your punishment when they are struggling. They need your guidance. They need you to point them to the beauty of God’s grace. They need you to show them the way of Christ.
- What are some things your family taught you about living God’s way? What did you learn?
- How has God’s Word equipped you to pour into others? How is His Word impacting your life now?
PRACTICE THIS
Spend some extra time in God’s Word and ask Him to equip you to live in His way.
