“How and Why We Worship” – Psalm 33:1-5
Main thoughts:We do not know anything about the background of Psalm 33. It could be written by any one from any place at any time. That is the beauty of this Psalm. It is a Psalm teaching us how and why to praise God and applies to any one in any place at any time. The first phrase connects it back to the last verse of Psalm 32. If forgiven people are to shout for joy, how are we supposed…
Family Worship – The End Goal
Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things,…
Family Worship – Using a Catechism
Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding. For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law.Proverbs 4:1-2 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 Till we all come in the unity of…
Family Worship – Progressing in Family Worship
And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand…

Family Worship – Where to Begin (Part 3)
Last week we looked at what not to do; this week we look at two very positive examples of discipling adult children. And he said, A certain man had two sons: And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance…
Family Worship – Where to Begin (Part 2)
It is easiest to begin discipling a child when they are an infant, but how do you begin when your children are older? And Samson went down to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines. And he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines: now therefore get her for me to wife. Then his father and his mother said…
Family Worship – Where to Begin (Part 1)
Discipling our children is a monumental task. Where do you begin? At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is…
Family Worship – Necessity
Last week we looked at how to have personal devotions. Over the next few weeks we are going to be looking at family devotions. This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him; Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in…
How to Have Devotions
With the coming New Year, many Christians will make a resolution to read their Bible every day. Others know that they need to grow in their faith, but they do not know how. In this lesson we will be examining how to have a meaningful devotional time. Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the…
Worshiping Jesus (John 12:1-11)
As Jesus is eating dinner with Lazarus and His disciples, Mary anoints His feet with very expensive perfume and wipes His feet with her hair. From this discourse we find out a lot about the people present. Martha was serving Just like the story in Luke 10:38-42 Martha was very busy taking care of everyone. She was selflessly making sure that everyone was fed and taken care. However, she once again neglected the most important thing, Jesus Christ. We can…
