The Most Important Thing

In the fear of the Lord there is strong confidence, and His children will have refuge.
~ Proverbs 14:26 ~

As a parent you know that, no matter what you do to raise your children, God is ultimately in control of their lives. You want them to walk with Him, to have "strong confidence" in Him.

The greatest power you have is to pray for your children. But how should you pray?

First, pray that God will teach your children.

Also, pray that you'll catch your kids when they do no good.


Does God answer these prayers? You bet He does. I think God has compassion upon the helpless parent!

The third thing is to pray with them. Just get down next to their cheeks, cuddle and pray. Pray for the important things going on in their lives, and pray for their futures-that they will walk with God, marry a godly man of woman. They love it. And so does God.

Question: What do you want God to teach your children?

Pray: That God will give you wisdom as you raise your children, and that He will teach them what they need to grow in wisdom, and help you to catch them if they stray from what is right.
