Instructions For A Father

Psalms 78:5-8 NKJV
For He established a testimony in Jacob,
And appointed a law in Israel,
Which He commanded our fathers,
That they should make them known to their children;
That the generation to come might know them,
The children who would be born,
That they may arise and declare them to their children,
That they may set their hope in God,
And not forget the works of God,
But keep His commandments;
And may not be like their fathers,
A stubborn and rebellious generation,
A generation that did not set its heart aright,
And whose spirit was not faithful to God.

Proverbs 23:24 NKJV
The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice,
And he who begets a wise child will delight in him.

Proverbs 13:22 NKJV
A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children,
But the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.

Proverbs 13:24 NKJV
He who spares his rod hates his son,
But he who loves him disciplines him promptly.

Proverbs 19:18 NKJV
Chasten your son while there is hope,
And do not set your heart on his destruction.

Proverbs 29:17 NKJV
Correct your son, and he will give you rest;
Yes, he will give delight to your soul.

Ephesians 6:4 NKJV
And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.
