Riches nor possessions can claim that place.<br \/>\n2. Prestige nor popularity.<br \/>\n3. Conformity to standards about us (Lots&#8217; Family).<br \/>\n4. &#8220;A good name is better than riches.&#8221;<br \/>\n5. &#8220;Loving favor.&#8221; Better than silver and Gold.<br \/>\n6. &#8220;Humility and the fear of the Lord are riches and honor and life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong> II: Religion in the Home.<\/strong><br \/>\n1. One who neglects Private Prayer will never lift others to the gates of Heaven in Public Prayer.<br \/>\n2. The one who ought to gain most from our religion are the children of our homes.<br \/>\n3. A home without a family altar gives little help to children in really knowing God.<br \/>\n4. To eat without thanks is to teach thanklessness.<\/p>\n<p><strong> III: &#8220;When Thou Sittest in Thy House.&#8221;<\/strong><br \/>\n1. Teach with the heart. (Only the Scripture we meditate upon becomes real to us).<br \/>\n2. Teach with example. &#8220;What you are speaks so loud I cannot hear what you say.&#8221;<br \/>\n3. Through Natural Conversation.<br \/>\n4. Through memory verses, golden years of memory. 8-12.<br \/>\n5. Through self-denial. Some things we cannot have if we are to be Spiritual and continue to love God above all else.<br \/>\n6. Through fear of ridicule, Israel lost contact with God when they wanted to be like everyone else.<\/p>\n<p><strong> IV: &#8220;When He is Old.&#8221;<\/strong><br \/>\n1. Patterns of life have been formed.<br \/>\na. Pleasures that were innocent are now fixed patterns.<br \/>\nb. Dislikes and discontinued habits of attendance to the House of God are now too strong to break. &#8220;Like the snake charms.&#8221;<br \/>\nc. Other things are now too important or have given way to persistent loyalty to Christ.<br \/>\n2. His Mental and Spiritual habits were really formed at home.<br \/>\n3. His Spiritual life is warn and real, or a dull gray, or a blue cold.<br \/>\n4. It all started with the direction the home painted them, when they began the Journey of life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;Teach us what we shall do unto the child.&#8221; Judges 13:12<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> Will you join with e and put Christ Lord of our entire home activities for this month of Revival?<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>1.
