There are a lot of things that we are called upon to handle, face and endure in this life.  In and of ourselves, we will fail; however, there is a Word from the Lord to us in Zechariah 4:6 "...Not by might, nor by power but by My Spirit, says the Lord of Hosts."  

Learn to trust The Sovereign, Almighty God; He will bring you through victorious!

A Message on Parenting
Psalm 127:3-4; Proverbs 31; Ephesians 5:21-6:4
Bishop Alfred Jackson
May 26, 2016
 
Being a parent is not an easy task in this society that we live in.  There are many challenges, hurdles, roadblocks, curves and turns; however, there is always help for those who are seriously looking for it.  Whether father or mother, the Word of God speaks directly and definitively to us.

Psalm 127:3-4 states, “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him.  Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth.”  Most of us see children as a blessing; however, many people do not know or fully understand the directives of scripture when it comes to children.  Taking the above mentioned scripture alone, it states that children are a heritage or an inheritance, not the union of the man and the woman, but from The Lord.  Since children are an inheritance from The Lord, it is imperative that we seek God’s wisdom in raising our children so that they will be raised from the perspective of the Most High, Sovereign God. 

Children are as arrows in the hands of a warrior, the Bible says.  Considering this, it is important to note that a person does not simply become a warrior.  He or she must be trained so that he/she will develop the physical, psychological and spiritual strength it take to be a warrior, trained in how to use the weapons given to him/her and must know battle strategies.  All of this takes place before the warrior ever goes into battle.  One of the main problems we are facing today is that people are becoming parents before they know what the Word of God says about being a parent or before hey learn how to be a parent; consequently, there is much failure, many undisciplined children, and chaos in the home and society.

What must we do?  We must look to Jehovah Saboath, the Commander in Chief of the armies of Heaven for His directions; submit to His authority, His wisdom, and His instructions.  We are in a battle for our lives and the lives of our children.  We need Him!  The world will not give us the best advice on being a parent.  God will!  Take some time from your busy schedule and discover God’s wisdom and instruction on parenting.  You will be amazed at what you will find in the Holy Scriptures.
