Quiz\u00e1s su familia siempre haya querido leer la Palabra de Dios juntos. Las Escrituras inspiradas fueron escritas para ser le\u00eddas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mois\u00e9s, inspirado por el Esp\u00edritu de Dios y hablando de los mandamientos y estatutos de Dios, instruy\u00f3 a los padres: \u201cCon diligencia las ense\u00f1ar\u00e1s a tus hijos, y hablar\u00e1s de ellas cuando est\u00e9s en tu casa, y cuando andes por el camino, y cuando te acuestas y cuando te levantas\u201d. (Deuteronomio 6:7)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cuando nuestros hijos eran peque\u00f1os, mi esposa y yo les le\u00edamos la Biblia. A medida que aprendieron a leer por s\u00ed mismos, nos turnamos para leer en voz alta, un cap\u00edtulo por d\u00eda. Al principio, busc\u00e1bamos reunirnos algunas veces por semana para estudiar juntos. Con el tiempo, nuestros momentos especiales para aprender m\u00e1s acerca de Jes\u00fas se convirtieron en un h\u00e1bito y nos reun\u00edamos casi todos los d\u00edas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jes\u00fas prometi\u00f3 que \u201cdonde dos o tres est\u00e9n reunidos en mi nombre, all\u00ed estoy yo entre ellos\u201d. (Mateo 18:20) Despu\u00e9s de muchos a\u00f1os de seguir reuni\u00e9ndonos, puedo testificar que Dios siempre se acerc\u00f3 a nosotros como nosotros nos acercamos a \u00c9l.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aqu\u00ed hay algunos consejos que aprendimos y que espero ayuden a que sus momentos familiares sean exitosos.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oren juntos y usen su sabidur\u00eda combinada para <strong>determinar el mejor momento para reunirse y el mejor lugar para sentarse<\/strong>. Dios dise\u00f1\u00f3 a los padres para que fueran un equipo. Si tiene hijos mayores, incl\u00fayalos al elaborar un plan. Algunas familias leen en la mesa. Otros se re\u00fanen por la noche en el sal\u00f3n. Algunos se sientan en el trampol\u00edn mientras pap\u00e1 lee. Los hermanos de una ni\u00f1a que estaba confinada a su cama sugirieron que se reunieran todos en su habitaci\u00f3n para que la familia pudiera estar junta.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Mantenlo simple<\/strong>. Como marido, tom\u00e9 la iniciativa de reunir las tropas. Luego abrimos con oraci\u00f3n. Nuestro objetivo era leer un cap\u00edtulo de las Escrituras diariamente. Si los cap\u00edtulos son largos, considere leer medio cap\u00edtulo a la vez. \u201cToda la Escritura es exhalada por Dios y \u00fatil para la ense\u00f1anza\u201d. (2 Timoteo 3:16)<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Pida a cada persona que pueda que lea.<\/strong> Cuando comenzamos nuestros tiempos de adoraci\u00f3n familiar, nuestros hijos eran peque\u00f1os y Sandi y yo nos turn\u00e1bamos para leer en voz alta. Cuando aprendieron a leer, compramos varias Biblias de la misma versi\u00f3n. Luego, cada persona que pudo ley\u00f3 tres vers\u00edculos mientras recorr\u00edamos el sal\u00f3n. Descubrimos que leer en voz alta a\u00f1ad\u00eda una dimensi\u00f3n extra a la simple lectura. Como dice Juan: \u201cBienaventurado el que lee en voz alta las palabras de esta profec\u00eda, y bienaventurados los que oyen\u201d. (Apocalipsis 1:3) Si tienes ni\u00f1os peque\u00f1os, considera la posibilidad de sentarlos con pap\u00e1 y mam\u00e1 jugando o dibujando en silencio. Aunque no comprendan el contenido intelectualmente, sienten el impacto de la Palabra eterna en su esp\u00edritu.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Interactuar con versos compartidos<\/strong>. El tiempo siempre es un factor y algunos d\u00edas estaban m\u00e1s ocupados que otros. Si ten\u00edamos tiempo despu\u00e9s de la lectura, nos turn\u00e1bamos para discutir lo que hab\u00edamos le\u00eddo, d\u00e1ndole a cada persona la oportunidad de compartir una idea que hab\u00eda adquirido. Una familia pidi\u00f3 a los ni\u00f1os que hicieran un dibujo que representara el tema del cap\u00edtulo. Al final de la lectura, podr\u00edan compartir su obra de arte. Otra familia ten\u00eda hijos dram\u00e1ticos y produc\u00edan una obra de teatro que describ\u00eda el contenido de los versos tratados ese d\u00eda mientras mam\u00e1 y pap\u00e1 aplaud\u00edan vigorosamente. Si\u00e9ntete libre de experimentar y encontrar tu propio sabor.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cantar un himno si el tiempo lo permite.<\/strong>.

(Colosenses 3:16)<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cerrar en oraci\u00f3n<\/strong>. Reunirnos, con Jes\u00fas entre nosotros, fue una experiencia muy bendecida. Despu\u00e9s de estos momentos especiales, el ambiente en nuestra casa mejor\u00f3 notablemente. En promedio, leer un cap\u00edtulo tom\u00f3 unos diez minutos. Si incluy\u00e9ramos un himno y testimonios, quiz\u00e1s tomar\u00eda unos veinte minutos. Invertir este corto per\u00edodo de tiempo produjo maravillosos dividendos.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">La Palabra inspirada de Dios debe ser le\u00edda por personas de todas las edades. Continuamente me sorprende c\u00f3mo el Esp\u00edritu de Dios puede aplicar los mismos vers\u00edculos para hablar nuevas verdades a cada persona, independientemente de d\u00f3nde nos encontremos en nuestro viaje con \u00c9l. Juan dice hacia el final de su evangelio: \u201cJes\u00fas hizo muchas otras se\u00f1ales en presencia de los disc\u00edpulos, que no est\u00e1n escritas en este libro; pero estas est\u00e1n escritas para que cre\u00e1is que Jes\u00fas es el Cristo, el Hijo de Dios, y para que creyendo teng\u00e1is vida en su nombre\u201d.

Perhaps your family has always wanted to read God\u2019s Word together. The inspired Scriptures were written to be read.\u00a0 Moses, inspired by the Spirit of God and speaking of God\u2019s commandments and statutes, instructed parents: \u201cYou shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.\u201d (Deuteronomy 6:7) When our children were young, my wife and I read the Bible to them. As they learned to read themselves, we took turns reading aloud, one chapter per day. At first, we sought to gather a few times per week to study together. Eventually, our special times seeking to learn more about Jesus became a habit, and we met almost every day. Jesus promised that \u201cwhere two or three are gathered in My name, there am I among them.\u201d (Matthew 18:20) After many years of continuing to meet, I can testify that God always came close to us as we came close to Him.\u00a0 Here are a few tips we learned that I hope will help your family times be successful.\u00a0 Pray together and use your combined wisdom to determine the best time to meet and the best place to sit. God designed parents to be a team. If you have older children, include them in making a plan. Some families read at the dinner table. Others convene in the evening in the living room. A few sit on the trampoline while Dad reads. Siblings of a child who was confined to her bed suggested they all gather in her bedroom so the family could be together. Keep it simple. As the husband, I took the lead in gathering the troops. Then we opened with prayer. Our goal was to read a chapter of Scripture daily. If the chapters are long, consider reading half of a chapter at a time. \u201cAll Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching.\u201d (2 Timothy 3:16) Ask each person who is able, to read. When we first began our family worship times, our children were young, and Sandi and I took turns reading aloud. When they learned to read, we purchased several Bibles of the same version. Then each person, who was able, read three verses as we went around the room. We discovered that reading aloud added an extra dimension to simply reading. As John says, \u201cBlessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear.\u201d (Revelation 1:3) If you have toddlers, consider having them sit with Dad and Mom playing or drawing quietly. Even though they may not understand the content intellectually, they sense the impact of the eternal Word in their spirit. Interact with shared verses. Time is always a factor, and some days were busier than others. If we had time after the reading, we took turns discussing what we had read by giving each person the opportunity to share one insight they had gleaned. One family had the children draw a picture representing the theme of the chapter. At the end of the reading, they could share their artwork. Another family had dramatic children, and they would produce a skit depicting the content of the verses covered that day while Mom and Dad applauded vigorously. Feel free to experiment and find your own flavor. Sing a hymn if time permits. Scripture and singing go hand in hand. \u201cLet the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.\u201d (Colossians 3:16) Close in prayer. Gathering together, with Jesus in our midst, was such a blessed experience. The atmosphere in our home was tangibly improved after these special times. On average, reading a chapter took about ten minutes. If we included a hymn and testimonies, perhaps it took about twenty minutes. Investing this short amount of time produced wonderful dividends. The inspired Word of God should be read by people of all ages. I am continually amazed at how the Spirit of God can apply the same verses to speak new truths to each person regardless of where we each are in our journey with Him. John says towards the end of his gospel: \u201cJesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.\u201d (John 20:30-31) Family Worship Resources I wrote a book called Family Worship. It is available as a paperback, a free PDF, and also an audiobook. If you would like to incorporate singing we have Hymns for Family Worship that has the hymn with the lyrics on one side of the page and the history on the opposite page.\u00a0 Both of these resources were designed for families, and I hope they will enrich your family assemblies. You can learn more here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.buildingfaithfamilies.org\/familyworship\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/www.buildingfaithfamilies.org\/familyworship<\/a>. Nowhere does the Bible say how often to read or how much to read, but we are encouraged to teach God\u2019s Word to our children. Since parents were designed for this role, God will bless any and all of your efforts to make this a part of your home.\u00a0 Steve and Sandra Demme have been married since 1979.
