We can read abt jeph n his daughta in d bible in judges chapta 11.since jeph was a faithfl servnt of God,he no doubt regularly discusd d scriptures wit his daughta.
Jeph lived b4 God's pple,d isrealites askd 4 a human king 2 rule over them.jeph was a strong man wit d ability 2 fight.so d isrealites askd him 2 lead them against d ammonites,a neighbor nation dat had been fightin d isrealites.
Jeph wantd God's hlp 2 dfeat d ammonites,so he made a promise.jeph vowd dat if God gave him d victory,he wld give 2 God d first 1 who came out of his house when he returnd home.dat person wld serve 4 d rest of his or her life at Gods tabernacle-place where d pple worshpd God in those days.DO U KNW WHO CAME OUT FIRST?-
Yes jeph's daughter!jeph was very sad.he had only 1 child.bt he had made a promise 2 God n had 2 kp it.Right away,his daughta said:''my father,if u have open ur mouth 2 jehovah,do 2 me accordin 2 wat has gne 4orth 4rm ur mouth.''then she askd 2 b left alne 4 2 months so dat she cud go in2 d mountain 2 weep.why d sadnes?Becos by kpin her father's vow,she wld b givin up d right 2 marry n av children.Even so,she did nt view her own desires as d most important thing.she wantd 2 obey her father n 2 b loyal 2 God.DO U THINK DAT SHE MADE GOD N HER FATHER HAPPY?-
So jeph sent his daughta away 4 2 mnths wit her girl cmpanions.when she returned,her father carried out his vow by sendin her 2 God's tabernacle at shiloh 4 d rest of her life.Every year,d young women of isreal wud go 2 shiloh n encourage jeph's daughta.
My fellow young naijapals DO WE KNW YOUNG ONES WHO OBEY THEIR PARENTS N LOVE GOD?-It's gud 2 get 2 knw dis children betta n 2 bcome their friend.if we imitate jephthah's daughta n we're also obedient n loyal,we'l al have gud friends.we'll make our parent's happy n God wil love us 2!!!
