INSTRUCTION OF THY
FATHER, AND FORSAKE NOT
THE LAW OF THY MOTHER
Direction to all Children to
obey the instruction and
teachings of their parents,
and obey their commands; as
commanded in
EXODUS 20:12
The home is the center of
child training and the
responsibility to train the
children lies with the parents,
submission to parents leads
to submission to GOD,
parents should not dump this
responsibility in the lap of
others, such as the church ,
the school, scout or sports
team , nowhere in the bible
are any of these are charged
with the training of the child,
it is the obligation of the
parents.
GOD commands the Parents
to diligently teach the word
of GOD unto our children,
and shall talk of them when
thou sit in your house, and
when thou walk by the way,
and when thou lie down, and

when you rise up and

TURN AWAY FROM SINNERS
One of the crucial lesson
Parents should teach their
children to stay away from
sinners, those who are
consi
dered to be bad crowd,
people who are wicked who
do wicked things, who are
corrupters, who are involved
in dangerous actions, Parents
have a responsibility to do
everything they can to
protect their children from
them , they should not
consent to sin, to commit any
known iniquity, such as sell
themselves to work in all
manner of wickedness:
particularly robbery
,stealing, murder, oppressor
fraud , cheating, yield not in
any degree to their advice,
persuasions or solicitations.
Young people can resist such
temptations by developing a
close relationship with GOD
as their LORD, by nurturing
their Spirit daily with the
word of GOD

MY SON DESPISE NOT THE
CHASTENING OF THE LORD
Do not despise the LORD’S
disciple nor hate his
correction, either by making
light of it, or not being duly
affected with it, or by
accounting it an unnecessary
thing, but rather appreciate it
as a privilege and favor from
GOD, as he is a loving
FATHER who corrects his
children when they disobey
him and his commands
through punishment
GOD offers two counsel
regarding the LORD’S
discipline:
Not to reject or cast away, or
have nothing to-do in the
case of GOD’S discipline, we
need to accept discipline
when GOD deems it
necessary to discipline us.
We must not be grieved or
offended, to hate it, when
suffering come on us, but
rather endure it with
patience and cheerfulness

manner of means that can be
thought of, by prayer,
meditation, hearing the

CHRIST for his grace and his
Spirit to sanctify it , preserve
and keep it.

A WISE SON HEARETH HIS
FATHER’S INSTRUCTION
wise children obey their
parents’ instructions, foolish
children mock their parents
and refuse to listen to them,
wise children accept
discipline from their parents
and learn from it, Mockers
rebel against their parents
when they are discipline, by
refusing to listen to them, by
obeying their instruction.
Wise children say nothing
but silence in acceptance of
the discipline, they do not
rebel against their parents

HE THAT SPARETH HIS ROD
HATED HIS SON
The wise parents who
withhold his rod of
correction, which is in his
hand, which he has power to
use, and ought to exercise at
the proper times, instead of
loving their children, the rod
represents here the means of
punishments, he who spears
or avoided this, and thought
that he is doing it for love,
has yet no true love for his
child, he who love him
correct him early.
The foolish neglects
discipline and give license to
foolish behavior, loving
parents discipline their
children for their children’s
|
|
sake, in order to help them
live righteously .
GOD’S word corrects both
parents who love their
children to discipline them
promptly and appropriately,
and when necessary, the
word of GOD clearly states,
parents who fail to discipline
their children are actually
demonstrating hate for them

instruction of parents,
master, and GOD himself or
correction either by word or
by the rod of correction he
that withdraws himself from
it, will not be in the way of it,
that shuns, neglect and
despises it.
The wise realize this truth
only though observing
discipline will they gain
understanding as they are
more concerned about their
soul as they graciously accept
and follow through with what
ever discipline is prescribed
THE FEAR OF THE LORD IS THE
INSTRUCTION OF WISDOM
The wise gain honor because
they fear the LORD and
humble themselves before
him, reverence for him and
submission to him is
discipline in and it self, it
teaches people wisdom, the
wisdom they display in their
daily lives- love, peace , ,joy,

Discipline your children; in
the right way when they are
still young and capable of
being reformed, abstain not
to give them due and
necessary correction, the
noise he makes, the tears he
shed, the entreaties he used

correction, let not a foolish
pity and tenderness prevail
to lay it aside on that account
the consequence of which
may be bad to parent and
children.
It will help them from harm
and premature death,
parents are to discipline
their children, which includes
physical and verbal
correction at the early stage
of his life, in other to teach
them what they can do and
what they cannot do in order

harmful and deadly practices
of foolishness and
wickedness
Parents should not neglect
the disciple of their children,

not be effective, therefore
we must correct our children
to keep them from being
disobedience both to
parents and to society

waywardness and self-will,
belong to children, bound up

But the rod of correction
used by parents, for the
correction of sin and
foolishness, is a means of
making children wise, and
restraining the foolishness

reclaimed them from those
sinful ways, which the
foolishness of their hearts
