Guard Your Garden

In this message, Pastor Patty ministers on the importance of guarding our families and, in particular, our children against the influence and attacks of the enemy. The children God places in our lives and within our sphere of influence are some of His greatest gifts. What we do in terms of raising those children is our gift back to Him. We have the responsibility to train our children in the fear and admonition of the Lord and teach them who they are and what they can do in Christ. Children are like seeds. When they are planted in the house of the Lord, protected from the influences of the enemy, watered with the Word, and cultivated with the careful oversight of loving, godly parents, pastors, and mentors, they will grow and flourish. Do not neglect the garden that is your family. Guard and protect it at all costs. The harvest you will reap is not for a single season, but for generations to come.
