How to raise God loving children?
Provide a good example to the children.
John 13:15 – "I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do." Parents cannot successfully teach their children if they cannot show in their own doings what they preach. Children can detect the slightest deviation and hypocrisy no matter how hard parents try to hide them.
Show your children the right priorities.
Matthew 6:33 – "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you beside." Setting aside your personal pleasure to prioritize God in your life will teach your children how to offer their own little sacrifices to build a strong relationship with the Lord.
Lead the children to God.
Matthew 19:14 – But Jesus said: "Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." As parents, you want your children to receive the promise given by Christ to children thus it is necessary to teach them to be godly.
You are your children's leader, they follow you. If you are being the kind of christian you want them to be, then they will follow the best they can. The best thing you can do is accept that they are not perfect and will make mistakes, and lead them to God. Never give up on them, because even if they don't seem interested in it they will learn it is the right way.
