Train Your Child – Proverbs 22:6

In a world that constantly bombards our children with diverse influences, there’s a foundational responsibility we hold as parents and guardians. It’s a task that goes beyond teaching ABCs and multiplication tables. We see this profound truth in scripture:

Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.

— Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV)

Think about it — we’re not just preparing our kids for this life, but for eternity. This verse emphasizes the significance of early guidance in shaping their understanding of the Kingdom of God. The principles they learn today become the compass that guides their decisions and pursuits throughout their lives.

When we talk about “the way he should go,” it’s not just about pointing our children toward success in worldly terms. It’s about cultivating an understanding of God’s love, grace, and purpose for their lives. Parents have the privilege of introducing children to the profound truth that their identity is rooted in Christ. This identity shapes their values, relationships, and the lens through which they view the world.

Imagine teaching your child about love, kindness, and empathy as reflections of God’s character. Think of the impact of nurturing a sense of purpose that extends beyond personal achievements. This early training becomes the foundation upon which they build their lives, enabling them to navigate challenges and opportunities with resilience and a heavenly perspective.

The promise, “and when he is old he will not depart from it” underscores the lasting impact of this foundational training. The principles of the Kingdom of God instilled in them during childhood become a part of their DNA. While they might stray or face doubts, the seeds of faith and truth remain, guiding them back to the path they were set upon.

So, as a parent, approach your role with a profound sense of purpose. Don’t just teach your children how to succeed in the world, but how to thrive in God’s Kingdom. By nurturing their understanding of God’s ways from an early age, you will set them on a trajectory of maximum potential success — not just in worldly terms, but in the eternal significance of a life well-lived for God’s glory.
