Parents - A child’s spiritual covering




Just as Jesus is the head of the church, and the husband is the head of a marriage, so are parent’s the spiritual head of the home. 

Thus it is the parent’s responsibility to lead and train a child in the right way.

The child does not take the lead. Unfortunately in a day and age where discipline is confused with being overtly harsh and politically incorrect, this sense of order is lost in many families. And children run astray with any trend or wrong teaching that comes along the way to entice them.

The head of the house must take the lead presenting the right way as an example to all in their household. If rebellion arises it becomes the parent’s responsibility to exercise their authority and wisdom to nip this rebellion in the bud.

LOVE your child with all their heart and have a world of fun with your precious gift from the Lord … but where discipline is needed do not delay in exacting it.

Believers in Christ are Strong.

We are tender hearted but BOLD and Fierce when establishing the ways of the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in Heaven.

Too many people are fooled into thinking that being mild and nice is the holiest action to take. I must vehemently refute that concept.

Being holy requires obeying the Lord’s commands including taking dominion over that which comes under our authority and thus expanding His Kingdom in our own households.

Step up into authority and do not negotiate with the voice of resisting demons. As the parent you’re in charge and it’s up to parents to assert that authority, and reject the deception of guilt or fear.

Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.- Proverbs 22:6

Discipline your son while there is hope, And do not desire his death.- Proverbs 19:18

The Ecstacy of Loving God

Journal entry - 25 May 2017 This morning in my 'Holy Hour' with the Lord ... I sat and waited upon him at 3 am , sang in tongues and soon found Him. :) But it was at around 4 or 5 am, that I noticed a special love began to wrap itself around me.... It was so beautiful .... that I am inspired to write about it in my journal entry this day.  I use the title 'The Ecstacy of Loving God' for this particular blog post as it is a commonly used term that describes the intimacy as well as the absolute pleasure and delight that is found in the Lord. The title is also that of a well known book that describes the mystical state of love that come in union with Christ. However, I use it not to refer to the book in particular but to share my personal thoughts on the sheer delight, yes the Ecstacy of Loving God! :) Lately, it feels as though I have plunged into colorful oceans. There is so much to see, appreciate and learn from. There are beautiful beings and sig

Write it Down, then Run with it!

Journal entry - 24 May 2014 Habakkuk 2:2 - Then the LORD replied: "Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it.   Today I am reminded to write a clear vision of the goals and plans that I see coming to fruition this year & in the years following.  I have written them before, but I am feeling led to add more details and specificity. When the Lord gives us dreams, desires & hopes, He has planted the seed. But it is up to us to water, tend to them and see that these seeds flourish into a great & mighty tree.  Picture a tree that in it's strength lends great influence - It provides shade, food,nourishment, refreshment as well as beauty to those who come to it.  It's a fruitful tree :) Writing down goals/visions, thus making the end result clear in written or visual form creates a great sense of excitement and joy. This leads to high levels of motivation to RUN with what is written. It gets my adren
