Father’s Day Outline
“Building A Godly Home & Legacy”

Ps.127:1 A Psalm Of Ascents. Solomon. The Lord needs to build the house. Jn.15:5; Matt.7:24-27; Col.3:17; 2 Cor.12:9-10

Unless the Lord guards. Be a watchman. Neh.4:17-18; 2 Tim.4:1-5; 2 Thess.3:3; 2 Tim.4:18

Ps.127:2 Beware of overwork & toil under your own power. Hag.1:6

Ps.127:3-4 The blessings of future generations. Children are a heritage. We are heirs Gal.3:16,29. Ex.20:12; Eph.6:1-3

Arrows Must Be: shaped, formed; guided with skill, strength; given care; aimed, given direction; an extension of warrior’s strength; potential for good or evil.

Ps.127:5 A full quiver. City gates—location for conducting business. Strength in numbers

Summary: all we enjoy are gifts from God. Depend on God (Zech.4:6), not ourselves. We can all value children (VBS). Lk.9:46-48; Deut.6:6-7; Eph.6:4; Prov.22:6

Ps.128 Another Psalm of Ascents. Focus on parents, family. Fear of the Lord.

Ps.128:1 Fear of the Lord—reverential fear. Ps.111:10; Job 28:28; Prov.1:7, 9:10. Micah 6:8

Ps.128:2 Gen.3:18; Ps.1:3

Ps.128:3 Fruitful vines bear much fruit. Ps.127:4-5, Gal.5:22.
Olive plants: offspring come from seeds, root systems.

Ps.128:4 Reverential fear of the Lord. Eph.1:3; Lk.1:50; Prov.14:26, 22:4
Ps.128:5-6 These words were meant to speak, pray, sing a blessing.

Our blessings in Jesus from Zion: Jesus taught & ministered in Zion; Jesus died as a sacrifice for our sins in Jerusalem (Golgotha, just outside the city walls); Jesus rose from the dead and ascended to heaven from Jerusalem. The Gospel was first preached out of Jerusalem; The church was birthed in Jerusalem.

Peace be upon Israel! How we should continue to pray.

Why we should live this way (all of us). God gives us our security; Neh.8:10 our strength; we are obediently following His plans & purposes; we will leave a legacy; we will live and flourish, not just exist.

God is our good, good Father. Ps.103:13-14 (compassion); 2 Cor.6:18 (sons & daughters); Rom.8:14-17 & Gal.4:6 (adopted); Ps.68:5 (Father to the fatherless); Ps.10:14 (helper of the fatherless); Deut.10:18 (justice for the fatherless & widows); Isa.54:5 & Rev.19:7-9 (our husband); John 3:16 & 14:6 (our Savior and the only way to heaven).
