MALACHI 2:15
PSALMS 78:5-7
DEUTRONOMY 6:6-7.

*Malachi 2:15*
God gave you offspring that you may bring up a Godly family. Children belong to God. As a mother and a father, it is your responsibility to raise your children together in agreement.

*God Purpose for Children.*
The propagation of his word to the next *Generation.*

*Keeping Covenant.*
Psalms 78:5-7.
The Lord established a covenant in Jacob, and appointed a Law in Isreal which he commanded our fathers, *that they should make them known to their children*;

That the *Generation to come must know them* even the children which *should be born*; should arise and declear them to their children. That children *might set there hope in God* and not forget the works of God but keep his commandments.

*How do you achieve Gods Purpose for Children?*

Teaching them the word.
*Deutronomy 6:6-7.*
And this word that l teach you this day, you shall teach your children. You will get *every opportunity* to teach your children the word of God. When you are eating on the table teach them. lf you do that, you will raise up a Godly disciplined children.

*Discipline them*
Proverbs 13:24.
We have been told to use a cain to discipline the child. Dont discipline your child infront of other children, sometimes you had never warned them before; dont discipline your child if you are angry, cool first. Talk to him and make him know his mistake before you cain him. And that is the way to avoid rebellion in children.

*Your Responsibility*
Your children are your responsibility, be a teacher to your children at home. Teach your children the word of God every day. Teach them how to pray and help them memorize the words. Take your children to church for dedication and allow them to know your faith while still young.
