Scripture
Psalm 8:2
“Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.”
Observation
Spiritual strength doesn’t depend on age, but on our relationship with God. Teaching our children to worship God is not only an investment in the future, it also has the power to shift the spiritual atmosphere today.
Application
Children matter to God! He loves them and cares about them, and he also hears them. The simple faith of a child has the power to change the spiritual dynamic in a situation. As a parent, I must do everything in my power to point my children to God. As a church, we must consistently recognize the awesome responsibility we have to introduce children to the Savior, and teach them to praise.
Heaven rejoices, and the enemy trembles when children praise Him.
Prayer
God, thank you for having the heart of a father and for loving the smallest of your children. Help us never to forget the importance of teaching children to worship, or lose the urgency of introducing them to you.
