Our pastor used the word, “Behold,” Yesterday. He explained that it meant to wake up and listen. This is important, and you better get this right.
We as parents use different words to try to get point across to our children. But, just for a second let’s see how it would work to use “Behold.”
Behold, your room is a mess. Clean it.
Behold your curfew is 10:30pm
Behold Get better grades.
I am not sure how well that would go, but it may be interesting.

The reason our pastor was talking about behold was because when we see the word behold, it means this is important and pay attention. I remember seeing that word at many places in the Bible, and it woke me up to knowing something was coming.
Isaiah 42: 1-9 uses it several times. The Prophet Isaiah was trying to wake the people up about the wrong doings they were doing. Idolatry, Sexual living, Coveting others wives.
He warned them that things will go wrong if they didn’t change.

In our day and age, we should be listening to Isaiah. We need to change. We need to stop listening to the crowd who wants rioting, cries of racism when there is none.
The only thing to listen to is the word of God. That never changes.
It’s not our feelings. It’s not popular opinion. It’s not what presidents or politicians say. God’s word is the only standard of truth. We cannot align with the rising opinions rather than the Bible, we won’t get justice.

Do you feel emotionally, physically, and spiritually drained, because of all the turmoil going on around you? You have carried this burden too long on your own. You should not bear it alone.
Turn to God. He has big shoulders to lean on. Pray for His love and protection. He will be there for you through the storms in your life.

Remember:
You are never alone.
You are never forsaken.
You are never unloved.
And above all…never, ever, give up!
