God created families so that parents may raise their kids for the future. However, they ought to understand what God wants them to pass on to their offspring. While parents rear their children, we must understand what God wants from us.
In order to understand what God says about parenting, parents must also be devoted followers of Jesus Christ. As God’s will dictates, parents should love and care for their kids. They should also take care of all of the everyday necessities and their children’s schooling.
Parents ought to treat their children with love and in accordance with the lessons that God has taught us. When parents are obedient to the Lord, their children will flourish in life as well, and the entire family will honour God together.
Parents should regularly take their kids to church and instil God’s message in their hearts so that they will never turn away from God till they pass away.
Let’s have a look at the following Bible scriptures that will instruct parents on how to treat their kids in order to have a happy household.
