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."
