Description: Have you ever seen a 5-year old drive a car? Well, you say, “Don’t be ridiculous!” Right! They watch you drive for years, before they begin to drive – with you in the car, and finally, they’re able to drive on their own. That’s a word picture for where Chip is headed today. Your children watch you as you live in obedience to the Lord, they practice obedience with you alongside, and finally, they live a life of love and obedience to God all on their own. Exactly how that process unfolds is what Chip explains in this message.Introduction: God’s Dream for Your ChildYou must understand your child’s two primary needs are for SIGNIFICANCE and SECURITY.You must recognize your child’s primary responsibility is to learn OBEDIENCE.You must remember, obedience is a DEVELOPMENTAL PROCESS.You must commit to providing the necessary RESOURCES for your child to learn obedience.Obedience is achieved when your child has TRANSFERRED his/her primary love, submission, and dependency from YOU to JESUS CHRIST.Three characteristics of righteous childrenThey make wise DECISIONS. -Philippians 1:9-11They keep their COMMITMENTS. -Proverbs 20:6They care genuinely for OTHERS. -John 15:13Broadcast ResourceDownload Free MP3Message NotesAdditional Resource MentionsMarriage Truth Cards Offer"Uninvited Guests" ResourcesConnect888-333-6003WebsiteChip Ingram AppInstagramFacebookTwitterPartner With UsDonate Online888-333-6003
