BENEFITS OF GODLY CHILDREN

BENEFITS OF GODLY CHILDREN 

Over the years, we have known that the most important priorities of a parent is to teach their children to have good behavior, because it paves way for their success since it will give them the zeal of diligence, perseverance, integrity, and ability to work hard. 

The truth is God gave us (parents) the opportunity to impact good behaviors in our children because it will make them standout both in their academics and every of their activities. Parents should get excited about this great privilege and do their utmost best in raising a generation of young people with good characters.

Since, nobody knows our children better than us (parents) and with our unconditional love towards our children, we are the best suited for bringing out the best in our children. God giving them to us is another priority for us to learn how to discipline them with love and build their confidence in serving the Lord.

STEPS TO APPLY:

 (1) Parents must model themselves with good behavior. We know that it’s easier for kids to learn from our behavior (walk) than talk. If the parents portray good character then the children can emulate them, remember most of the characters a child display, they learn it from the parents so the parents should strive hard to live an extraordinary lifestyle making God the head of all. 

(2) Know your child’s role model.  Parents can easily identify the role model of a child through the song 🎧 he/she listen to or sing regularly, the books they read, the movies they watch or even the posters in their bedroom. Studying the Bible together will help them  chose from many Christian biographies as their role model which will shape their life in Godly direction.

(3) The more parents put God’s word into their children the better for them because we know that everything starts from the inside.. It’s very important parents purposefully teach the children how to improve their life through the word of God, once they have God’s word in their mind, they will always think God’s thoughts.

It’s true that thoughts leads to actions, which develop into habits, and finally  grows into character. The right ways to give a child a positive thoughts is by daily studying the word of God together and teach them how to use the Word. Let your child find joy in reading and memorizing scriptures and singing gospel songs.

(4) Correction and training must base on the scriptures. It’s true good things are not always easy because today’s world has changed. It’s easier to get discouraged by a bad behavior of a child but the bad behavior is an opportunity to bring them closer to God’s word and correct them with some bible’s truth. Teach your child to find answers in the Bible because it will help build their confidence and trust.

(5) Schedule times for behavior lessons. Having daily lessons on Godly behavior, teaching them the meaning of the behavior traits as you study. For examples, consider biblical practices and show them how to use it in their everyday lives. 

In our next post, we will study more on DAILY BEHAVIOR LESSONS.

(6) Prayers. It is one of most powerful things parents can do for their children because praying God’s word back to Him for the children, guarantees His power in their lives. As parents correct and teach their children to have good behavior, parents need to work as if it all depends on them, always praying and depending on God. Parents need to be faithful in praying for their children.
