GODS WORD

“But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15

WORDS FROM KEN AND DOTTIE

Yesterday we discussed setting new resolutions for 2010. The three we discussed were establishing a time alone daily with God, set a time daily with your family to talk, listen, pray and read the Bible and finally to serve God in all you do.

Today we want to talk about setting a New Years Resolution concerning the standards we will live by in 2010. God gave Moses THE TEN COMMANDMENTS that He expected us to live by daily. Unfortunately, across America and even around our world the Ten Commandments have been forgotten. Not only forgotten but they have been banned from the public schools and government owned property here in America.

We want to challenge you to make a New Years Resolution that involves the Ten Commandments. First of all, get a copy from a book store or write out your own copy from Deuteronomy chapter 5. Every day with your family, in your time together, have someone read the Ten Commandments. This can be your basis for discussion as a family. You can ask the question --- did any one break one of these commandments today? If so then, why did it happen? This should not be a time for criticism or punishment but a time to learn each commandment and set the standards you need in your family.

Joshua made it clear in the verse we have written above that for him and his house, they would serve the Lord. You as a family need to make that same commitment and by spending time reviewing and knowing and then living by these commandments you will be able to say with Joshua that you are serving the Lord in all that you are doing.

Tomorrow we will look at another resolution that we need to have in our lives for 2010.

OUR VERSE TO MEMORIZE

“And you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.”
John 8:32

TODAYS FAMILY PRAYER

Help me personally and my family set standards for our lives in 2010 that will honor and glorify Your name.
