Hi Everyone,

Did you Know that you have the power to change your family history for the future?

We can’t change our past, where we came from or how good or bad our family upbringing was, but we can make sure that you have an influence, a Christian influence, for our family’s future.

How? The way we live, the decisions we make, the way we speak, the way we treat others etc. Children catch what you do more than what you say to them. Beware of the way we act and react to situations, they are watching and listening.

In Judges 6:25 the Lord told Gideon to tear down his father’s altar to Baal and build an altar to the LORD GOD. Some may need to do the same. Perhaps our parents were not believers, maybe they were even against Christianity but you can make the change, from here on.

When I got saved in 1986 I decided to stand on a couple of scriptures and still do. One of them was Isaiah 59:21 it says

…”And this is MY covernant with them” says the Lord. “My SPIRIT will not leave them, and neither will the Words I have given you. They will be on your lips and on the lips of your children and your children’s children forever. I the Lord have spoken.’”

Another one was Deuteronomy 30:19-20.

“…Now I call heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life so that you and your descendants may live!”

Have a read of Deuteronomy 32:46-47 also.
There are many more, look them up and stand on them.

I decided that from myself onwards every generation will worship the LORD GOD, the one true GOD!

In Nehemiah 4:11 Nehemiah tells the men to fight for their families.

In 2 Timothy 1:5 Paul mentions to Timothy the influence his mother Eunice and grandmother Lois had been in his life.

If our parents were not Christian believers, it’s time to tear down our father’s altar like Gideon did and build and altar to the LORD our GOD! It’s never too late, why not start now!

MORE SCRIPTURES: Nehemiah 9:16, Lamentations 5:7, Exodus 20:5, Exodus 34:7, Psalm 128:3-6, Proverbs 22:6, Isaiah 54:13, 49:18, 25, Acts 2:39, 16:29-34.

“And you must commit yourselves whole heartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children…” (Deuteronomy 6:6-7)

God bless you and have a great week!

Love Giovanna!
