VALUABLE PRINCIPLES TO LIVE BY

(Message by Tanny Keng)

0. Introduction

a) King David gave his son Solomon valuable principles to guide him through life (see 1 Chronicles 28:9-10).

@1. ⁹ “As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve Him with a loyal heart and with a willing mind; for the Lord searches all hearts and understands all the intent of the thoughts. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will cast you off forever. ¹⁰ Consider now, for the Lord has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary; be strong, and do it.” (1 Chronicles 28:9-10 NKJV)

b) These same ideas are ones that any Christian parent would want to present to a child.

1. What are the valuable principles? 

a) Get to know God personally.

b) Learn God's commands and discover what he wants you to do.

c) Worship God with wholehearted devotion.

d) Serve God with a willing mind.

e) Be faithful.

f) Don't become discouraged.

g) These are the very basic things we must teach a child and when he or she grows up, he or she will not depart from them.
