  3. a. For design of a godly house The Template: • Psalm 127:1 Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain • It is a labor of vanity if: • We do not count the cost to build (Luke 14:28-30) • We build on the wrong foundation (Mat. 7:24-29) • We build with the wrong material (I Cor. 3:12-13)

  4. a. For design of a godly house The Template: b. For protection of a godly house • Psalm 127:1 Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain • It is a vain watch if: • We watch for the wrong things (I Peter 5:8) • Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it • We fall asleep on the watch (Matthew 26:40)

  5. a. The vanity of wasted time The Time: • Psalm 127:2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so He giveth His beloved sleep • How does this time benefit your family (I Timothy 6:9-10)? • How does this time bear on theimportant things (Luke 12:16-20)?

  6. a. The vanity of wasted time The Time: b. The richness of quality time • Psalm 127:2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so He giveth His beloved sleep • God blesses those whose priorities are in order (Matthew 6:33) • God blesses those who relationships are solid (Proverbs 17:6)

  7. a. The origin of the treasure The Treasure: • Psalm 127:3 Lo, children are a heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is His reward • Children are our inheritance from God • 3 John 4 I have no greater joy, than to hear that my children walk in truth • Children are our reward from God

  8. a. The origin of the treasure The Treasure: b. The benefit of the treasure • Psalm 127:4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are the children of thy youth • They protect us from selfishness • They protect us from loneliness • They protect us from bitterness • They protect us from rashness

  9. a. The way the world will treat them The Treatment: • Psalm 127:5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate • Godly families will have many enemies: • The world at large • Themselves

  10. a. The way the world will treat them The Treatment: b. The way they will treat the world • Psalm 127:5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate • Godly families will not give in to the world (Romans 1:16) • Godly families will defeat their enemies (Genesis 6-8)

  11. What kinds of houses are we building? Are we sheltered in the house of God?

  12. Consider During the Lord’s Supper: Isaiah 53:3-5 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
