Psalm 144

Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle…

It is a battle against the world system to prioritize your spiritual and family life.

It is important to invest into your family…because a blessed nation is one filled with blessed families! What does a blessed family look like - David answers that question with verse 12:

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

Sons will be like plants full grown…or a well-manicured lawn.

Pruning is necessary - say no to them…and teach them self-control, the ability to say no themselves to things that aren’t in their best interest!

As young boys grow into godly men, they will be like “full grown plants” - trees that are straight and strong that offer protection and provision (fruitfulness) for others.
