As a head of any family, I believe if you’re determined to move the spiritual life of your family beyound the church wall into an active, thriving faith, family devotion is vital for you. Now the next question is what is family devotion?

From my own research, family devotions are a specific period of time when husband and wife, dad and mom and the kids, comes together and sit down, read the word of God (bible), and pray together. It is a time that is designed majorly to build up an individual and establish a sense of unity and direction within families.
Creating time and developing a family culture around this spiritual habit is very important. Family devotions can do these little things to your family
• it can initiate a deep relationships with children or kids.
• it can also expand the opportunity to pray with and for them.
• and most importantly, it might also require a shift in the way a family spends their time, a good schedule for family devotions can yield eternal dividends in mist family’s spiritual growth and legacy.

Being a parents or partners, you have to established a devotional discipline in your own personal life first, having family devotions can also be like swimming upstream. And this desire to start having personal devotions can become a model for the kids as we actively pursue a relationship with God our maker. Our personal commitment to these things Bible reading and prayer speaks loud about the importance. One thing we have to keep in mind is that transparency and perseverance are the key!
Among the major goals in life, one important goal is to raise up kids who remain devoted to God as adults. Our desire is to raise children who use the following things to guide their decision-making, their life goals, and their relationships.
- 1 prayer
- 2 God’s Word
- 3 the solid core of family, friends, and church community

If Family Devotions are administered by loving, caring and godly fathers there will be no end to the benefits, just as there is no end to the grace of God toward those who have set their hearts to seek Him. Family Devotions are in a real sense a form of seeking the Lord with all the family involved. Family Devotions help to bind marriages and families together in the love of God. Where a marriage is breaking up you will find that Family Devotions has long gone out the window.

Devotional time is essential to growing your faith and trust in Christ as you strive to follow Him every day. Family devotions are a great way to encourage parents and teach children about the importance of studying the Word of God. With each new stage of your childrens lives, there are new issues and new worries. Instead of trying to follow what the world tells you to do, take your family before the Lord in prayer and study what the Bible tells parents!

Wow, what a wonderful post. We need to work together just like a family. It is good for family to work together, pray together and share things together.
It is necessary that in the morning we should take out time to pray read the word of God and praise his holy name.
