Sermon Outline

Proverbs 14:26; John 10:10

Are you preparing for the future?

There are a lot of good things, but not all.

You are building the future right now.

There are spiritual things afoot.

Influence is impact

  • Impact on thinking
  • Impact on values
  • Impact on morals
  • Impact on discipline
  • Impact on actions

1 Corinthians 15:33

Who and what has influence or impact on your child?

How do you influence the future points of influence?

Control the points of entry.

  • We are called to guard our hearts. Parents are responsible to guard their children’s hearts.
  • There are things you cannot control in the moment, but you can control them in the preparation.
  • These are not “in the moment” lessons but rather foundational

What are foundational lessons you want your children to know?

  • Honor
  • Use words to build not destroy.
  • Be honest.
  • Family is important.
  • Work hard.
  • Be a person of faith.

Get your list down, live it, and constantly guide them toward it.

Character and faith are essential for a healthy future.

Not all influences are good.

There can be a separation between what the enemy did in your life and what God has planned for your life.

Proverbs 14:26
