Preserving a Legacy of Godliness

Greetings!
This month we will be looking at an important issue regarding legacy. What is legacy? It is what we leave our children, grandchildren or the next generation. As Kingdom citizens, we should be concerned with what is being left to the next generation. So, this lesson is titled “Preserving a Legacy of Godliness”.
We should be concerned with what is taking place in society right now. God is holding us responsible for doing what we can to preserve a godly legacy.

Matthew 18:6 NET & HCSB
"But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a huge millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the open sea.”

"But whoever causes the downfall of one of these little ones who believe in Me--it would be better for him if a heavy millstone were hung around his neck and he were drowned in the depths of the sea!”

Matthew 18:10 BSB & 14 ESV
“See that you do not look down on any of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven”… “So it is not the will of my Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.”

This subject is dear to my heart. Today in society, there is an onslaught of destruction aimed at our children. As if drugs, gangs, sex trafficking and violence were not enough, now there is an attack on their minds to erase any vestige of innocence or virtue.

We have to take a stand and raise our children based on God’s Word, not what is popular in culture. There are several scriptures listed below to encourage you to continue to share the truth of God’s Word with your children and grandchildren in order to combat the lies of the enemy. Stand strong on God’s Word!

1. Are you standing boldly based on God's Word or have you caved into the current culture?
 

2. Are you teaching your children or those you have influence over God's Word?

3. Do you pray for those in authority over your children and others?

4. Do you recognize the spiritual blindness in the current culture?

5. Are you bringing the culture of Heaven wherever you go?
