You Get what you Glorify

Main Idea - Promote things of God to Kids and husbands to get more of God.

Proverbs 22:6 NIV

6 Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.

Focus on promoting of training or glorifying the things of God instead of the things of this world.

1 Chronicles 16:8–11 NIV

8 Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name; make known among the nations what he has done. 9 Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts. 10 Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. 11 Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always.

Glory Means - Boastful, Praise, Shout in Joy

1 Corinthians 1:31 NIV

31 Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.”

Not Ducklings

How Do we do this?

Identity in Christ not A list of rules, achievements

Ephesians 1:3–10 NIV

3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5 he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. 7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace 8 that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding, 9 he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, 10 to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.

Not just Dads

1 Thessalonians 5:10–11 NIV

10 He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. 11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.

When we glorify the goodness of God in each other as adults, spouses we continue to help each other grow into the people God has planned us to be.
