Bible In One Year Genesis 9-11. Hymn: Sing Hymn 4: God Give Us Christian Homes

MESSAGE:

As a teenager, you sometimes get over excited. Adults like to play with you and even engage you in conversations, sometimes you get so excited and carried away that you begin to speak to them disrespectful. Remember that our God is a God of order, He will not support you being disrespectful to your elders. You need to know your limit when you are relating with people that are older than you. This way, they will freely relate with you and you will get to learn more from them.

With your age mates too, there are limits. Everybody likes to be respected, so understand the limits of your friends and respect those limits. This is the secret of great relationships.

Key Point: If you respect your elders, you can gain a lot from them.

Hymn 4: God Give Us Christian Homes

God give us Christian homes!
Homes where the Bible is loved and taught,
Homes where the Master’s will is sought,
Homes crowned with beauty Your love has wrought;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!

God give us Christian homes!
Homes where the father is true and strong,
Homes that are free from the blight of wrong,
Homes that are joyous with love and song;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!

God give us Christian homes!
Homes where the mother, in caring quest,
Strives to show others Your way is best,
Homes where the Lord is an honored guest;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!

God give us Christian homes!
Homes where the children are led to know
Christ in His beauty who loves them so,
Homes where the altar fires burn and glow;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!
