Home Training

As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance.
— 1 PETER 1:14 (NIV)

We all do things today that we’ve learned years ago. I learned at a very young age to look both ways before crossing the street. I learned not to act hungry when visiting my mom friend’s house even if I was actually hungry. For most of my home training, I was only told once, reminded twice, and after that… let’s just say I was punished.

Scripture refers to believers as obedient children and just like a good parent, God has given us good home training through His Word. He’s trained us to look both ways and not conform to the evil desires we once had. He’s told us we don’t have to look to anyone else when we hunger or thirst because He is the living water and He’d feed us until we want no more. So, be God’s obedient child and remember your home training. It could save you from a world of punishment.

Heavenly Father, strengthen me as I remain Your obedient child by not conforming to the evil desires I had when I lived in ignorance. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
