SPIRITUAL PARENTING

SPIRITUAL PARENTING …Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.


Psalms 127: 3-5 “As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate”.

Parents have decided to abdicate their responsibility of training their children to strangers such as television, internet, teachers, friends etc.

Parents should not wait for the school to do it for you. It is not really their focus. Do not dump your children on the Church. They have greater burdens to bear. Do not leave the job to the maid. She is not qualified for it. Do not leave the assignment to friends. They have their own children to bring up. Do not expect any that your relations will do it for you.

They have other things to bother about. Do not evade it. Face it now and you will smile later. God gives the assurance: Proverbs 23:24-25 “The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him. Thy father and thy mother shall be glad, and she that bare thee shall rejoice.

May you as parent reap the reward of your labour and in Jesus name. You shall not bury your children in Jesus name.
