Proverbs 14:26 - Anyone who shows respect for the Lord has a strong tower. It will be a safe place for their children.
This week we’d like to encourage you to MEMORIZE the verse and hide it deep in your heart. That is what God’s word says for us to do.
This means spending a few minutes each day reading the verse out loud and then repeating it over and over until you have it memorized. By the third day, you should be able to say most of the verse without even looking!
Proverbs 14:26 - Anyone who shows respect for the Lord has a strong tower. It will be a safe place for their children.
If daddy is afraid, where can a little child turn? Daddies are supposed to be safe. They are supposed to know what to do and how to solve problems and fix things and, most of all, protect the children from harm. But what happens if a child sees fear in daddy's face? What if daddy is as scared as the child, and doesn't know what to do? Then the child is utterly distraught and feels panic. He feels that the one strong and good and reliable place of safety is no longer safe.
But if daddy is confident, then the children have a refuge. If daddy is not panicking, but calm and steady, all the walls can come tumbling down, and all the waves can break, and all the snakes can hiss and the lions roar and the wind blow, and there will still be a safe place in daddy's arms. Daddy is a refuge, as long as daddy is confident.
Heavenly Daddy is our refuge.
