Pour Out

28 “And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. 29 Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days. ~ Joel 2:28-29 (NIV)

One in Christ

26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. ~ Galatians 3:26-28 (NASB)

He Will Pour Out His Spirit

28 “And afterward,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams,
your young men will see visions.
29 Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.

~ Joel 2:28-29 (NIV 1984)

Taught by the Lord

All your sons will be taught by the Lord, and great will be your children’s peace. ~ Isaiah 54:13 (NIV 1984)

Children Are a Reward from God

3 Sons are a heritage from the LORD,
children a reward from him.
4 Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are sons born in one’s youth.
5 Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.

~ Psalm 127:3-5a

Well-Nurtured Plants

May our sons in their youth
be like plants full grown,
our daughters like corner pillars
cut for the structure of a palace; (ESV)

Then our sons in their youth
will be like well-nurtured plants,
and our daughters will be like pillars
carved to adorn a palace. (NIV 1984)

~ Psalm 144:12

Sons and Daughters

Then our sons in their youth will be like well-nurtured plants, and our daughters will be like pillars carved to adorn a palace. Our barns will be filled with every kind of provision. Our sheep will increase by thousands, by tens of thousands in our fields; our oxen will draw heavy loads. There will be no breaching of walls, no going into captivity, no cry of distress in our streets. Blessed are the people of whom this is true; blessed are the people whose God is the LORD.

~ Psalm 144:12-15

A Song of Ascents.

Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in his ways. You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours. Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your sons will be like olive shoots around your table. Thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD.

~ Psalm 128:1-4
