Family Praying Together
Do you want your teenagers to have a relationship with God? Do You want them to be saved and live faithful lives? You can instill a love for God in the heart of your teenagers. You can get your teenagers to worship God.
Instructions
1. You must first pray daily. As God has called us to minister first unto our families we must pray daily for them. We must pray daily that we can be used to minister to our children. We must pray daily for ourselves and our relationship with our teenagers. Most importantly we must pray daily with our teenagers.
2. You must model a relationship with God. I was saved when my sons were 9 and 10 years old. They knew me as a non believer. As such it is very important to model that I trusted God. Pray Daily. Read and study your bible. Be active in church. Show your faith. Model your relationship with God.
3. You must talk to them as young adults with their own minds. Share your faith and your relationship with God. Teach them what God says. Have devotions with them. Remember that they are young adults who have their own mind and you can not make them love anyone. But share as you are sharing with another adult.
4. Get them involved in a good God fearing bible based church. The word says "forsake not the assembly of yourselves." We all need encouragement and support as we go throughout life and its' challenges. The positive feedback of teens who are also in church and seeking to have a relationship with God helps. Teenagers do not want to be different. Other teenagers who Worship God help them to Worship God also.
5. Be active in their lives. We need to not just tell them what to do. We need to be an active part of our teenagers life. As we share a life with God and share a life with them it is important that the two lives come together. In other words the life we have in Christ is shared with the life we have with our children. They also share their life in Christ and their personal lives with us.
