1 Samuel 17:57-58
” And as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand. 17:58 And Saul said to him, Whose son art thou, thou young man? And David answered, “I am the son of thy servant Jesse the Bethlehemite.”
Most of the troubles in the world are by inheritance. From Adam, man inherited the sin nature and this is what brought death and destruction to the world even to this day. Thank God that Jesus came and we are now offsprings of God , partakers of the inheritance of the saints. (Rom 8:17, Col 1:12) Man inherits sin, sickness, poverty and death at birth. Being Born Again , you are delivered out of the curse and are a New Creation In Christ Jesus. If however your mind is not renewed, you will continue to live like a man who isn’t saved. That therefore means your life is the character of your mind. Your mind is a product of your programming and programming is founded on your upbringing.
Many people have never been raised, they grew up worse than animals. They were sent to school yes but the parents never schooled them about life the reason being the parents also were not schooled by their own parents and the cycle goes on. After David spake differently and moreover defeated Goliath, the King desired to know whose son he was. Saul wanted to know who raised this Young man. David was so excellent so much so that the King knew it was a matter of programming from the parents. Proverbs 6:20 says ” My son, keep thy father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:” If you are a parent, can your children say they know your instructions? It is those instructions you give that shape the destiny of your children.
Except some people receive Fatherhood through the word, they will forever be defeated. God is our father, and he has fathers for us in the Earth and instructors whom he has set to teach us, train us and raise us in the way of the kingdom. Don’t let people curse your parents because of your own stupid behavior. Proverbs 10:1 says ” A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.” Don’t only school your children about academics, school them about life. We have educated fools and they are the most dangerous people, some of them occupy positions in government, and the people mourn. Whose Son / Daughter are you?
