Israel was unfaithful to the covenant that God graciously made with them. They failed to train their children to trust in the Lord and fulfill their covenant responsibility. So their children ran to other gods. Then Israel incurred God’s covenant curses. They suffered greatly. And yet, their destruction was not total. God offered them hope and called them back to his covenant love and protection…and they waited for Messiah, the Israel true Covenant Keeper to come to obey for them and to take their punishment for covenant breaking!
Brothers and Sisters in Jesus Christ: 1. Are you doing everything in your power to make sure that you are leaving a true legacy for your children…and inheritance of faith? Will the next generation be more equipped in real spiritual gifts than yours? Will God say about you: “He provided enough education for his children…enough food…enough fun… but he failed to leave a true inheritance?” You see, grace is not hereditary. If you leave your children to themselves in order to provide “stuff,” know that you are contributing to their death…their eternal and sometimes physical death. “Stuff” becomes their god. 2. You have to be persistent in teaching, for all men and women have a tendency to relapse into idolatry. Guard your hearts and guard your children’s hearts. 3. Remember, though, it is the grace that comes through Jesus Christ alone who can break the cycle of idolatry for you and for your children. So the inheritance you leave is really because of what Christ gave to you.
