David Jeremiah Daily Devotional for Today 12th September 2024
A study from The Ohio State University found that 62 percent of parents feel burned out and 66 percent say parenting demands leave them feeling isolated and lonely.1 Raising children is a demanding assignment.
That’s why it’s so important to be a Spirit-filled parent. In Ephesians 5 and 6, the apostle Paul tells us to be filled with the Spirit, which gives us the qualities of worship, thanksgiving, and submission (5:18-21). He then explains how this will impact our marriage (5:22-33) and then our parenting (6:1-3). We’ll be less likely to exasperate our children. Instead, we’ll have Spirit-power to raise them in the training and instruction of the Lord.
As parents, we shouldn’t provoke our children. They are gifts of God to be treasured. When we treasure our children, they have the best opportunity to grow up in a positive way. All parents sometimes have to say “No” to their youngsters, but let’s look for times to say “Yes” in the Spirit.
There’s no better place to find advice on parenting than the Word of God, which reveals a heavenly Father who loves us and calls us His children.
