Wisdom For Destiny Daily Devotional *(8th June, 2025)* by *Sunday Akanni* TOPIC: How We Can Help Our Children Follow The Growth Pattern Of Jesus Luke 2:52 NKJV And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men. Message Every reasonable parent surely desires children that would make them proud and happy in life. The easiest way you can have children who will grow into responsible and successful adults in life is to instil the fear of God in them right from childhood. When a youth have the fear of God, he/she shuns wrong things that might soil the parent's names, but rather indulges in good and productive things that will make them happy and proud (Read Genesis 39) Jesus has been in existence right from the foundations of the world (Revelation Chapter One Verse Eight). Then He decided to come to the world to die for man's sins and save us from hell. He was divinely placed in Mary's womb and came into this world like every other baby. Despite being God in man, when He was still a Young Boy, He grew in the will of God. Despite growing around other kids that could have corrupted Him and made Him deviate from the Purpose of God for His life, He still followed God's Will accordingly, and guess what, He was successful!! Do you also want your children to be God-fearing and successful in life despite how corrupt many young ones are today? Then do these: - Lead your children to Jesus Christ at the very earliest stages of their lives. - Teach them the Word of God regularly - Always remind them of the Word of God again and again, alongside the consequences of going against the Word. Also, keep reminding them of the blessings associated with doing the will of God. - You yourself needs to be a God-fearing born again Christian. Children prefer to follow examples than words. Your children are looking at you - Pray for them regularly, and always pray at home - Try to provide for their necessary needs so they won't want to venture into ungodly things just to get what they want. - Take them regularly with you to Church and other good Christian gatherings. The tendencies are high that they would live to practice what they have learnt from childhood. - Always discipline them appropriately when due *Prayers* Pray that the LORD will use our young ones for His Own Glory, and also for wisdom for their parents to bring them up to follow the growth pattern of Jesus. *Further Reading* Luke 2:49 NKJV And He said to them, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”

Luke.18.17 I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." Prov.22.6 Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it. Prov.13.24 He who spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is careful to discipline him. Prov.29.15 To discipline and reprimand a child produces wisdom, but a mother is disgraced by an undisciplined child. Ps.34.11 Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD. Ps.78.5 He planted a witness in Jacob, set his Word firmly in Israel, Then commanded our parents to teach it to their children. |

Interesting15:First you people said God knows you even before you were born ,he knows your coming and going ,he knows your outcome, Now the big question is can your teachings change your God's plans and outcomes especially when you guys said God doesn't change . |

Just teach your children how to be responsible, kind to others, never hurting others and do what’s right. All these instilling fear of God doesn’t work anymore unless if you want to raise a spoilt child. |

Interesting15:/ Be careful what you wish for. Raise your children to be morally upright which is not limited to the christian religion. What did Jesus achieve as an adult up till 33 years that you want your children to emulate? The era that Jesus lived is very different from 21st Century. Don't destroy your kids. / |

Teach children The Ten Commandments, but do not teach children the pagan Babylonian and Roman empire sacrificing animals and then sacrificing Jesus christ for sins. Teach children the Original Torah and not the Babylonian and Roman empire corrupted Torah call the Old and New Testaments. God Almighty of the Original Torah is the only True God. 1. You shall have no other gods before Me. 2. You shall not make for yourself a carved image — no idols or images to worship. 3. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain. 4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 5. Honor your father and your mother. 6. You shall not murder. 7. You shall not commit adultery. 8. You shall not steal. 9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. 10. You shall not covet — do not desire your neighbor's house, spouse, or possessions. |
