Family Devotion Day 23: You’re never too young

Read

Psalm 71:17-18 Since my youth, God, you have taught me, and to this day I declare your marvellous deeds. Even when I am old and grey, do not forsake me, my God, till I declare your power to the next generation, your mighty acts to all who are to come.

Learn

From today’s reading, we know that the one who wrote this Psalm started learning about God when he was still young and has been talking about the many wonderful things God has done.

We can do the same – know the Lord and tell the world about God’s goodness – even as children. This means that we need to:

Share more about Jesus

Let’s ask Jesus for joy when we share God’s power and goodness with others. Then we will want to share about Jesus more and more!

Pray for more children to know Jesus

We want to see not only our own family and friends saved by Christ, but also the many children in Singapore and the world.

Think about how we can share Jesus

No matter how old or young we are, each of us can bring others to Christ because this is what God wants.

/ Discuss

Am I like the Psalmist in today’s Bible verse, wanting others to know of Christ’s love? Why or why not?
I’m just a child! How can I share about Jesus?

/ Pray

Pray for God to give you a heart that wants to know Him more – one that loves Him so much that you always want to share about His goodness to those around you.
Pray for God to show you how you to bring someone to Christ. Pray for the power of the Holy Spirit to give you the right words to say at the right time to the right person.
