okay single mom simply because either or out of wedlock but really i want to honor the single moms in the house it's really taking up you know the challenge and the hit of being a dad and a mom as well if you're a single mom you know what the bible says i am the father to the fatherless all right and defender of widows so many special gracie gods among single moms who's trying their best really to raise up those kids and of course pray i'm a dad myself okay congratulations day of nathan buchas 364 days i really want to honor my wife grace here for giving me the opportunity now mugging that then as well well we're having this series life together and uh from the title itself it's really life is meant to be lived out with someone it's not good for a man to be alone it's a it's a genesis because yeah yeah it was very good he created a man right but then again holding hands it's not good for a man to be alone and then i don't know but before benigeba god has given adam a special task to name every animals [Laughter] he fashioned it in such a way that a man and a woman will have the ability to you know to bring forth another human being and it's such a great privilege isn't it to be used by god you know to entrust a an inheritance of bible children a reward from him so being um on the series life together it's the reality nowadays since the pandemic started the house has become the coffee shop the school the office the gym right and the house and then right and now we're having a problem because a lot of people are not so used to having a you know a house namagulo norm we are calling for volunteers can you flash that on the screen we have that on screen we need technical stage management okay and uh uh it's a technical and stage management ministry young man call of duty guys negan coffee shop like in gym the king basketball court laptop and are you aware that there's so much tension now in the house so you might entitle nothing life together and question all my life uh there was so much tension in the house is it a blessing or nagging curse i mean all of a sudden are you aware the divorce announcement and breaks and breakups are really they they soar in terms of numbers all over the world it's a global and statistics because of pandemic annulment and the divorces and breakups because suddenly married couples don't know how to relate with their spouse and all of a sudden they're there was so much tension and that's the point that this series is all about how can we have life together indeed and now we have the opportunity to spend more time with their kids with our wives or husbands that's why the goal of this series is that at the end of this series we will understand that our relationships are a reflection of god's covenant with us and against nathaniel the god wants us to enjoy a family the basic unit of society hopefully it will result in number one christ-centered marriages number two uh christ-centered families talking about parenting and christ-centered places so that's the goal of this series last week we talked about the different roles on husband and wives of wipes but anyways so here's the premise before we even start the second week of the series the premise is this okay this is important verse one of chapter five where this all began human rules follow god's example so before you even say oh he called mr the premise is this follow god's example therefore as dearly loved children that's the starting point of this whole exercise because it will always be self-preservation self-centered submit your yourself to it's a never-ending pursuit but the example is we are dearly loved children unless we get this we'll never have the right attitude towards submission and loving and stuff like that because belief drives behavior isn't it your belief will determine your behavior your conviction drives your actions all right identity nothing lord before you even commit to any roles whether you're a husband wife children employee employer and understanding my identities have been a candida nicole small rest in the fact that i am a child of god so it doesn't matter i am a child of god the reason why i'm doing this because i'm under the submission of my god clear unless my gets not in a time and just it will be very hard for us to commit to the roles that we're going to teach and number two sabbath is a verse 18 be filled with the spirit it has to be a spirit-filled role a spirit-filled husband a spirit-filled wife spirit-filled children spirit-filled employee and employer but holy spirit forget this and i've seen people get amitam bible it's not gonna happen because the initial premise i'm a child of god i am filled with the holy spirit and lastly submitting to one another out of reverence for christ we are all under the authority of christ allah accountability why para hindi abusing power given to us there's only one in command so last week we talked about marriage and today we're going to talk about parenting okay i'm a father myself you have that on screen my picture way back okay okay okay so so so i i'm a father of two lovely daughters but seriously and we're blessed with of course my wife and our two daughters and here's the command for the children we're going to talk about the role of the children and the role of the father normally paka father's day obey your parents in the lord and sometimes for this is right okay the first thing that we need to understand okay children the word children was used here is it's an offspring okay so hindi saying toddlers we're commanded to obey our parents but even time you are married that's the time you're going to live and cleave your parents live and cleave from your parents and cliff your spouse that's not to say that but now you're starting a family of your own but growing up you have to number one obey your parents why first of all it was commanded in the bible no questions asked secondly it's right i love you banging stats not and the philippines has a recorded seven percent increase in births among girls aged 15 and below in 2019 what do you mean by seven percent okay you're seven percent it's a huge number sixty thousand plus i believe you see an input reported below fifteen years old somehow minors okay that option is seven pencils from the number last year nearly 2 million children are victims of sex trafficking worldwide the highest rate of child exploitation when it comes to sex trafficking and these are serious because of issues of baha'i and most of the time fatherless homes and not only fatherless sometimes the father are present emotionally disengaged absentee father they're so busy trying to be successful outside they have nothing against success but sometimes we tend to justify you but when you do the math they have so much time outside of the homes okay this is pretty pandemic but even you're inside your home some dads are emotionally disengaged physically disengaged all right okay and that's why i want to encourage you today we can we can actually do this my parents we can actually do this okay so children obey your parents in the lord so this is a twofold teaching as i said children obey your parents and then the parents now will give instruction to the lord so children obey your parents in the lord why was it commanded in the first place you know why because by default listen up we will never obey our parents hello 11 months 12 months diva i mean why was it commanded because in proverbs 29 15 it says there a child left to himself brings shame to his mother wow a child a child left to himself by default we're sinful so i believe king david psalm 51 5 we are sinful from the moment our mother conceived us not the moment we're born the moment we become a living organism in our mother's womb we are sinful now inherently ever entered the world and a child left to himself share say thank by default they're sinful and a child left to himself will one day bring shame to his mother supermarket is [Laughter] foreign obey your parents in the lord it's arising out of a conviction that such obedience is the will of the lord this makes it a higher service than ginawamo out of fear we are going to obey our parents because it is commanded by god it's according to the will of god out of fear of god out of fear of the parents anybody here you know people like that there are kids who grew up in a guilt-trip environment [Applause] but there's this grudging obedience it will not conform to this command you know that little chance i may be sitting on the outside but i'm standing on the inside you don't want to have kids like that if your child doesn't want to obey you now man if you don't discipline your child somebody else will either way maybe disciplines either rehab or cemetery but either way someone will put a stop shaking you know because he or she thought the world revolves around him so if you're a child today magulanka if you're watching worshiping with us obey your parents why for this is right in the lord okay and then the first continues honor your mother and father and somebody that this is the first commandment with the promise you know the story right when moses came down from from the ark and talk to god and god gave him two tablets so and then the first set of tablets pertaining to god the first four all the laws and commands in relationship to god the last six talks about a relationship with other human beings and the first on the list is relationship with the parents it's interesting isn't it and something on honor your father and mother and god somehow put uh you know young fingers he put two promises to it and later we're going to talk about that but this duty is so important that it includes it's included in the brief summary the moral law given by god in mount when you dishonor your mother and father you can be stoned to death although an animal record that's a bible name stone to death because they dishonor their parents you're going to be brought to the elders and then but but then the gravity of this honoring your parents what do you mean by honor to honor means to revere okay okay when you say you want to honor you give weight it means you you you respect okay these commands refer to an inner feeling as well as an outer behavior but not being honored honor is giving respect not only for merits but also for frank what do you mean by that sometimes or some of you grew up in a homes i've counseled people who's their very own father more less than her i i counsel people now mama magulang mismo are so irresponsible pinata growing up wow it's hard isn't it but you see the bible commanded us to love even our enemies it's easy to honor the honorable and it doesn't need god to do that even bad people do that right you know honor me you honor that man even bad people can do that without god but if you have god in you it takes a spirit-filled life to honor the dishonorable to give way to the people and when you say honor it doesn't mean bodybuilding some of you you don't have to you know to to live within the boundaries of your parents some of you really have to say that that's what honoring means honoring is respecting not for marriage alone but also for the ranks when god said honor your mother and father period well i'll say nothing if they're kind if they're good unfortunately we're commanded to honor them period honor them both with actions and attitudes listen up one way of honoring them is in proverbs 22 1. listen up among kids children listen up a good name the bible says in proverbs 72 1 is more desirable than great riches if you're a child here let me tell you something take care of it rodriguez a good name is more desirable take care of those name preserve the name that was handed to you and make sure you're gonna hand it over to the next generation because a good name is more desirable than great riches and it says here to be esteemed is better than silver or gold so how do we appreciate our parents how do we honor their parents practical and i appreciate them you honor your father and mother when you are thankful for all that they've done to you you can show your appreciation by valuing their guidance proverbs 17 6 children's children are a crown to the aged and parents are the pride of their children guys not just today appreciate you know how among you here you're still appreciating that i just want to appreciate your opinion we were talking so but the point is children's children are crowned to the agent let me know lucana you're proud of your apo man that's something to look forward to i'm going to make my lolo proud i'm going to make sure i'm going to take care of this name so appreciate learn to say i love you thank you dad you're a great dad it means you know what jesus willingly obeyed joseph and mary again be imaginative jesus christ no jesus obey and honor his parents colossians 3 20 children obey your parents in everything four this pleases the lord i like the verse because in everything obey your parents in everything why because this pleases the lord number three treat them with respect this often involves what you say and how you say it okay number four provide for them guys for those of you know when your parents are old they may need support now i know some of you have been passing does it matter it's a joy to give to parents right you can honor them by trying your best to make sure you're not gonna deprive silent arrow you can give them and i'm sure there's some exception here the mayan magulang and all but you can also provide for them and all first time with the five okay suck this to your bugs first timothy 5 8 if anyone does not provide for his relatives especially for members of his household he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever wow first timothy five eight but indeed provide it's a household mo you have denied your faith and you're much worse than an unbeliever it's a beginning you can't enjoy enjoying a party party just provide for their family and here's the thing okay last last part how do we give honor to them this is very important i want to focus more on this forgave forgive their shortcomings how among you here don't raise your hand you wish you have another parents [Music] you know what no one's perfect we don't even know when you were born and sometimes but here's the thing about love again the premise you are dearly loved child of god that's the starting point you are overflowing with the holy spirit that's the second point you are answerable to god that's a third point there's nothing your parents did to you hindi muhayan we can overlook offense we can forgive our parents shortcomings we can stop keeping records of wrongs why because in the first place there's no i mean they may have not planned you and i don't know maybe growing up you you've heard those words but let me tell you something when your parents are old and about to die you want to make it right with them i hope it's not too late because i prayed for dying people when they're on their death bed there are some family members the immediate family gust hello you don't want that to happen on the death bed life is short if you are 40 years old maybe 12 000 days left going along just just please spend time with your family forgive them honoring them is knowing lord i love you more than my parents left to myself blah blah blah growing up but it doesn't matter you are now a dearly loved child of god overflowing with the holy spirit answerable to god alone that's why dad i forgive you mom and it doesn't make sense but it it makes so much sense okay god amen all right because i can sense that some of you you have that grudge towards your parents and it's not gonna go away unless we admit it and we offered before god and god will give you the grace to forgive ephesians six verse three that was nothing here are the promises two promises attached to it one language do not murder so that you may live long well i'm gonna do not steal so that you will be rich well i'm getting on however that it may go well with them and they may live long in the land long life and quality of life maybe god is gracious who knows but practically speaking if you'll be your parents those are the roles of the children honor your mother and father honor them honor them honor them obey them even if it doesn't make sense even if you feel like you don't need to or you don't want to no god commanded it and it is the right thing to do obey and honor them in the lord roll the fathers quickly we don't have much time okay dad do not provoke your children to anger one moment you hear you feel like you are a god you have the right to bully your children and then discipline that will provoke him to anger listen up the goal is not to make them feel angry but to make them feel sorry oftentimes and the goal is not to make them feel angry after hearts your goal is to make them feel oh my gosh that tamara the easiest way to paint it nowadays is an ipad website and the most passive way to parent a child is through an ipad now again don't get me wrong if you're involved okay baby no discipline seems pleasant at the time but painful not indisciplined painful but later on however it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it wow i love this verse all right and look at the verse later on harvest of righteousness and peace [Applause] there's no peace in the house there's no righteousness in the life of our children now the fastest way to do that is to be passive parents and sometimes we're too busy trying to win the world trying to make a impact to the world but we're not making an impact in our very homes dad it's time to wake up we have to be involved in the lives of our children you're not united and they're so smart so number one do not bully your kids never ever bully your kids and all never don't do that please my dads you don't have the right to bully your kids strain them up in the way they should go that's a road number two do not play favorites i was talking to other young guests is a long time member of our church that he has five kids excellent basketball helix sports family so don't ever play favorites don't ever play favorites and in the worst you're trying to compare your kids man that's the worst when you compare your kids with other kids but demography your classmates [Applause] do not discourage them you have words of discouragement guys words i mean there's a saying that stick and stone may hurt my bones but words cannot hurt me that's not true you might classmate elementary in union manga and words are so powerful most especially if it came from someone who is in authority when discouraging words came from a dad it's so impactful dagalini leon either it's a good thing or a bad thing it doesn't matter how many times you're great you're good you're beautiful you're pretty every time we counsel women and abundant some agga absentee father madalas never heard the words i love you from a dad i love we're just so blessed i mean we met we were mentored by men and asaki and of course small group leader go through the years taught me date your children take your children uh jeff gundy every other week right one summer just date your children you can do that they want to hear do i have what it takes to be a man helicopter mom true story because never experience la be careful and lastly as i end but bring them up in the disciplined instructions of the lord dad's parents we have a role train the child in the way he should go so that when he is old he will not depart from it the goal is self governance can you say it with me self governance the goal is pagalitia innovation on drugs he or she can conver govern her her or himself the goal is young boyfriend high school or college rather and then your daughter will say man you don't deserve me i am a princess i am the daughter of the king of kings and the lord of lords i should better be treated as one your goal is when you're not there beside them they are self-governed by the lord ibiza bien the holy spirit is in them they can say no to sin 35 years old self govern bring them up listen up the church is not the primary institution to train your children hello we can guide you we can work with you but we are not the primary institution to train your children hello do the math kids i mean do the math it's just an hour show or teaching it's more caught than thought not the church definitely not the lolo in the lolla and roll the lollo is spoiled not to train not the school it was a christian school and as i am very quickly psalm 127 verse 1 it says there unless the lord builds the house parents our role we are builders we build we are builders we build we build character we build memories they're like wet cement as early as us as young as they are they're lake like wet cement so unless the lord builds the house we are builders all right unanimo primary role than dad mom unless the lord is part of the building process the builders will labor in vain if you build your homes based on material stuff yeah it's vain it's vanity you're just building in in in shallow foundation okay next verse next unless the lord builds the house unless the lord uh um watches over the city can we have that on screen um verse two okay there you go verse 1 unless the lord watches over the city the guard stand watch in vain point number two naruto now then before we end we are watchmen guys dad alamo and we've seen this over and over again i've heard some people who are giving testimonies they don't even know what's happening sarun and agnila before they knew it instagram is a fake facebook post i want to kill myself like suicide now and and it's just disheartening they are inside your homes you don't know what's happening in them we're supposed to be watchmen i'm not saying at the very least and they have the access to youtube and all grab it be careful when you give an ipad to your children because child pornography every disco it's so be very careful guys inventorize early verse two and stay up late toiling for food to eat but god grants sleep to those he loves number three we are providers we're not just builders we are watchmen and lastly as parents we're supposed to be good providers and problema in an attitude provider more than builder and watchmen that's the third because it grants sleep to those he loves while we're sleeping god is providing that's the point if you are that this is our story verse two can we show this on screen invade your eyes early and stay up late sabirito toiley for food to eat that's our life before pandemic isn't it all right trying to win the world trying to conquer the world clubs you rise up early you stay up late and then you're toiling for food to eat while on the other hand it's habit of god grand sleep even when you're sleeping because god loves you because any responsible and loving dad will make sure pakistan and that's our father in heaven and sometimes we're so busy trying to make a living we're no longer living we're just merely existing question when will you say enough is enough how many millions in your bank account you will say okay pastor i have arrived i can now spend time with my family and with my you know people that i love it's insatiable isn't it otherwise your billionaire next up it's a never-ending pursuit what will stop us is either sake or but for us christians who are dearly loved children filled with the holy spirit and accountable to god we know lord it's like manna from heaven every single morning there's gonna be mana every time i wake up there's gonna be food i'm just gonna gather for the day why because tomorrow is a new day a new day to trust in you i'm not gonna amass more than i can eat i'm not gonna amass more than what i can bear i'm not saying don't invest in all i hope you're hitting me right but what this verse is saying if it becomes the ultimate when money and success becomes the ultimate don't ever listen up don't ever sacrifice family at the altar of success it's not worth it you can become successful in the eyes of men but you're a failure in the eyes of your children and your wife and your or your husband oh my gosh again in your deathbed you don't want to be with them you want to be with people who matters the most so never ever sacrifice family at the altar of success it's not worth it we have one life to live make it count as a husband and as a parent let's all stand on our feet today we're gonna pray long there's this verse in malachi 4 6. can you flash that aeron and he will turn the hearts of the fathers okay their children in the hearts of their children to their father what this verse is saying is okay the time will come this is the last verse in the last book of the old testament he will turn the hearts okay of fathers to their children okay in the hearts of the children to the fathers i will strike the land with the curse so this is my prayer for all of us and if you're having a great time with your children or your child to your parents perfect great but i'll be speaking to some of you here who's having a hard time you know having this peace in the family [Music] and this is a great reminder for us that this is a promise god will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the children to their fathers otherwise the land will be cursed and we don't want that so i'll be praying for a specific group of people number one i'll be praying for restoration of parents to their children okay whoever is the offender or offended it doesn't matter if you're a christian believe that this will happen restoration of a child to their parents or parents of their children and number two we're going to pray for forgiveness that you're going to overlook offense you're going to you're not going to you're not going to look for ways to you know no no no we're going extend forgiveness to our parents or maybe you're a parent listen up you're gonna extend forgiveness to your children so if you're a parent who's holding grudge over your children i think this is high time for you to make amends and just overlook a fence and just say forget it we're not gonna bring that up anymore i have forgiven you how about that and peace will come upon your household and lastly i'll be praying for those people who are still believing god for a child i do have some friends i officiated the weddings i know people who are here today who's praying for a child and somehow in timing i don't know but the bible says children are rewarded from the lord it's an inheritance from him if you're praying for a child i believe that god will honor your desire let's just pray lord we thank you for you have given us guidelines you have directed us lord god to
