pray for child

And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart to keep Thy commandments, Thy testimonies, and Thy statutes, and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for which I have made provision.”

love

Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Peace and order

For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

loving cheerful servant

Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

love with action

My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

love

Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

pray for wisdom

Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?
And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.

compassion

Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.

example

Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.

pray for child

Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:

compassion, comfort, support

Ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,

faithful rule

Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.

ruling with gravity

One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;

provide all needs

But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

inheritance

Behold, for the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be burdensome to you, for I seek not yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

you have been taught

But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

God's faithfulness to households

For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

God responds to prayer

And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth,

Christ alone, not man's methods

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

graciously forgive

Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.

Word of the Lord, singing

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

provoking to anger

Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

Every area of life

And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

Edifying speech

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

teach thanksgiving

Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

wise, faithful nurture

Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;)
That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

children worship with parents

And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we must hold a feast unto the Lord.

teach to keep the way of the Lord

For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

Joseph obeys

how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.

creatively motivate

And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:

Public worship as a family

Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

discipline should yield peace and righteousness

All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.

The Word of God and Prayer

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

don't overwhelm

For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:

read, explain Bible

The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.

pray for wisdom

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

fighting

Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.

don't be like an ostrich!

Which leaveth her eggs in the earth, and warmeth them in dust,
And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may break them.
She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not hers: her labour is in vain without fear;

it takes time to understand

These things His disciples understood not at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of Him, and that they had done these things unto Him.

do what he commands

Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

correction

And Joshua said unto Achan, My son, give, I pray thee, glory to the Lord God of Israel, and make confession unto him; and tell me now what thou hast done; hide it not from me.

children hear God's word

There was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which Joshua read not before all the congregation of Israel, with the women, and the little ones, and the strangers that were conversant among them.

it is hard and good

It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.

Jesus loves and protects them

Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

keeping your word

But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

love for Jesus

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

sin can't be hidden

But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord: and be sure your sin will find you out.

model cheerfulness

Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,
