Parents, bless your children all the time!

In recent years, family dynamics have become increasingly complicated, particularly in the realm of religion.

Many children are discovering their own faith, often different from that of their parents. This can lead to intense conflict and generational clashes. Some might blame their parents for their failures, leading to resentment and discord in the family.

The Bible is clear about how we are to treat our parents.

 The fifth commandment in (Exodus 20:12). This commandment, and the blessing attached to it, are repeated throughout the old and new testaments.

But what does it mean to honor …..means “to regard with great respect or high esteem.” It also describes honor as “something regarded as a rare opportunity and bringing pride and pleasure; a privilege.” Both of these describe what it means to honor your parents.

So, when honoring our parents, it’s essential that we show them respect, accept their authority, obey them, and appreciate them.

God is invested in relationships. He desired a relationship with each of us. To illustrate the structure of the relationship, He created the family. The way we respect our parents says a lot about how we respect our Lord. Honoring our parents teaches us how to honor our Heavenly Father better.

Remember that others are observing the way you honor your parents and God. Your siblings and friends will learn from your conduct. And someday, when you are a parent, your children will learn how to treat you by watching how you treat their grandparents.

Not only is respect for our parents important in showing respect to God, but it also teaches us respect for authority.

It’s respect for your parents that is the basis for every other kind of respect and every other kind of authority. Honoring our parents teaches us that God has placed people in authority over us. Honoring them also teaches us how to respect that authority and be respected by those we have authority over.

Most importantly, showing honor to our parents demonstrates the love of Christ. It creates strong bonds in our families, can heal broken relationships, and helps us grow as Christians. Honoring your father and your mother can be an incredible opportunity to share the love of God.

Your relationship with your parents will change as you get older.

As you and your parents grow older, you’ll find that you have the privilege of caring and providing for them. Paul wrote to Timothy in (1 Timothy 5:8).

Even as we grow into adulthood, we  should never stop honoring our parents.

Parents are meant to love, protect, instruct, and discipline their children. Paul wrote in Ephesians 6:4 but it’s not every time that they remember it and this usually makes it difficult to love them.

But there is no reason to allow hate to exist in your relationship for there is no one who can replace their position in our lives

One can go to church and get introduced to a new father but that one will never be able to hold your blessings like your biological parents.

And the reason why when we consult seers, and n,anga   we are told a lot about our parents it’s because they are the ones that hold our blessings and prosperity.

If they are not going to speak prosperity and blessings over and over in our lives at times it becomes so difficult for us to prosper and get what we want in life.

I kindly encourage those with children as it is your duty to speak blessings on your child and give them good blessings with your own words and actions everyday.

No one will come and bless your child if you don’t do it yourself.
