ECWA Food for the Day – 27th May, 2025

TUESDAY, 27 MAY
TEXT: DEUTERONOMY 6:1-13
TOPIC: THE IMPORTANCE OF BASIC DOCTRINES FOR FAMILIES

Today is children’s day. This is a day dedicated by the Federal Government of Nigeria to honour and celebrate our children.

Yesterday’s text (Math. 18:1-11) demonstrates Christ’s love for children.

In this text, the writer emphasises the importance of teaching and obedience in living in the Promised Land. The future of any family, nation or Church depends on their children.

The author of Deuteronomy emphasises the fact that doctrinal training for families is very crucial. The word of God should be on display not only in our mouths but in the hearts of children if we expect them to follow the Lord.

Today’s message is apt because the word of God is the foundation for the family. We need to follow the Old Testament example of teaching, loving, caring and investing in our children. Christian parents should not fail to impart their faith in their children.

QUESTION
As a Christian, what do you teach your children?

PRAYER
Help us, O Lord, to see the need to teach our little ones basic Christian doctrines, in Jesus name. Amen.
