Our Children's Learning

Good Morning All:
We as Christians have God’s Word to apply in our lives and our children’s lives. God has given us the authority to call things to be not as though they are. We can speak a thing (good or bad) and have it manifested here in the land of the living (you shall have what you say). I know many of you have children that are returning to school or have already returned to school, so I’ve searched the scriptures to see what the Word has to say about our children’s learning, and I’m doing this for my children too. I know they have awhile before they go to school, but now is the time to speak in and over your child(ren) as far as his/her learning is concerned. We speak healing over ourselves before we get sick (if you are not speaking healing scriptures over you and your family, then start doing it EVERYDAY!); likewise, we should speak over our children concerning their learning before the return or go to school.

I have some scriptures here (something I usually don’t do because you need to seek and read God’s Word for yourself). But don’t take my Word for it, check up on me. Yes, these are God’s Word pertaining to learning, knowledge of His Word and His Kingdom (please, speak these to over your children as far as the spiritual side), but God has given us His Word to speak in every area of our lives; this includes our child(ren) learning. God has given us the authority to bind and loose things here on this earth, and they will be bound and loosed in Heaven. We can bind up the lack of wisdom (knowledge) and/or understanding in our and our children's lives, and loose supernatual understanding and wisdom in our lives (pray that things supernaturally comes easy to us). I think it was Creflo that said that God puts His "super" on our "natural", and that how we get more of what we are needing. God’s Word is to build us up in our most holy faith in Him; build up our spirit-man; and the same can be applied to our everyday lives. As a matter fact, this is exactly what He wants us to do. He wants us to take His Word and apply it to every area of our lives; not what the world applies to their lives. God’s Word should be the only truth in our lives as Christians, and we should and we are, in Jesus’ name, living by every truth that proceeds out of the mouth of God, His Word, the Bible. Shall we proceed………………………………………………..

(Please put your name or child(ren)’s name in where my children names are.

First in James 1:5-6, God tells us that he (you and me) who lacks wisdom (knowledge) should ask of the Lord who gives to all men liberally (freely) without reproach, and it shall be given unto him. Keep up with me. If your child(ren) doesn’t understand what is being taught in church or school, encourage them to ask God for understanding. Those things that are important to us are important to God. If there is something that important for us to learn, then He will do it for us.

Proverbs 1:5 – Angie and Dorrien hear (the Word of God/school lesson), and the increase in their learning. The more our children hear the Word of God or their school lesson, the more they will increase in their learning of what is being heard.

Proverbs 15:33 – Angie and Dorrien fear the Lord for this is the instruction of wisdom (knowledge).

Psalms 111:10 – The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (knowledge), and Angie and Dorrien fear the Lord their God. A good understanding Angie and Dorrien have to do all the commandments of the Lord as well as their school lessons. A lot of us have gotten away from fearing God, and do not teach our children to fear the Lord; therefore, we are not teaching them to have wisdom (and we wonder why they do the things they do). If we teach our children to fear (reverence) the Lord, then they will be less likely to do the things that are not pleasing in His sight.

Psalms 119:73 – Lord, your hands have made and fashioned Angie and Dorrien; you’ve given them understanding (of God’s Word and school lessons) that they may learn your commandments as well as their school lessons. The Lord formed/made our children, and He has given unto them the gift of understanding and wisdom.

Proverbs 16:21 – Angie and Dorrien are wise in heart and are called prudent (wise in practical matters), and my sweetness of the lips increases their learning. If you are not helping your child(ren) with their school work, then you need to start. Don’t just leave it up the school; get involved. Be patient and speak “sweetly” to them even if they don’t get it (I am so speaking to myself). Remember we had to be taught these things too, and someone was patient with us until we got it. Eventhough they were taught a lesson at school, you can take the one-on-one time to explain it them again and in detail. Everybody doesn’t understand/get it right away, but they can with time and patient. Just like with faith, it comes by hearing, and hearing, and hearing the Word of God (the word “and” here is continual). Remember, the more they hear, the more they will increase in their learning.

Proverbs 10:7 – The memory of the just is blessed, and Angie and Dorrien are the just in Jesus’ name. Those things that are taught in church and in school they shall retain because their memory is blessed of the Lord.

Proverbs 19:27 – Angie and Dorrien listen to instruction, and they will not stray from words of knowledge (they listen and do not stray from God’s Word of wisdom, and knowledge being brought forth in their classrooms).

Genesis 39:2-3 - And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand. Lord just like with Joseph, you are with Angie and Dorrien; they are successful. Everyone will see that the Lord God is with them, and that they Lord makes all that they set their hands to do to prosper. The Lord is no respector of persons (if He did it for Joseph, He can and will do it for you).

Romans 8:37 – Nay in all these things, Angie and Dorrien are more than conquerors through Him that loves them. They are more than conquerors in every area of their lives including their school lessons.

Philipians 4:13 – Angie and Dorrien can do all things through Christ Jesus which strengthens them. Lord, I thank you that they see, hear and understand what is being taught (whether church or school lessons) and they can do and apply it in their lives.

Proverbs 18:24 – A man that hath friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. Angie and Dorrien first show themselves friendly so that they may be befriended. All kids want to have friends, and it's important that they know that they have to show themselves friendly first.

These are some of the scripture, the Word of God, which you can speak over yourself and your children in any area of your lives. God is faithful and just to perform His Word. So speak His Word over, in and around your family. His Word works if you work it. Please feel free to share comments of what you speak/pray over your children as far as their learning (whether God’s Word or school lesson).
