Godly values are like compasses; they are always pointing
the way and if you know how to engage them and make them become part of your
child, he won’t get lost or confused by conflicting voices in the process of
time.
A child needs to be taught! The scripture confirms that a
child should be trained in the way of the Lord and by the time he grows up he
would not depart from it. Therefore it
is the duty of Parents to instil certain godly principles in their offspring. The
following points could help:
1.
Let your child know that God is the only assured
Source. In other words, teach them to trust God and rely on Him for everything.
2.
Teach them to have godliness with contentment.
3.
Teach them how to fear the Lord.
4.
Teach them to have unconditional obedience. Let them
know when they obey you, they obey God and when they do otherwise, they disobey
God and not you.
5.
Teach them to be self-disciplined.
6.
Model your child. Become who you want to see your child become.
Conclusively, in the process of raising godly children, you
are obligated as parents to;
1.
Give affection to your child always
2.
Give direction to your child always
3.
Give correction to your child, when he errs.
Isaiah 54:13 “I will teach all your children, and they
will enjoy great peace”.
