Behavior

Proverbs 20:11 Even children are known by the way they act, whether their conduct is pure, and whether it is right.

If you want to know of your behavior, then look at the behavior of your children. It all runs downward. If you want your children corrected, you must be corrected first. They have your spirits! Authority flows downward, not upward. If you are asking why your children are so rebellious, God is asking the same of you. If you are asking your children, why are they not listening to you, well, God is asking the same of you! The enemy can only get to the children through the parents as authority belongs to the parents. When God disciplines you as the parent, receive and thank HIM for HIS correction.

Proverbs 23:13-14 NLT Don’t fail to discipline your children. They won’t die if you spank them. 14 Physical discipline may well save them from death.

So many fight and quarrel in Facebook. They especially strife over the subject of the bible/gospel. Do not get caught up with the nonsense. If you believe you are in truth, then let God defend you. Otherwise, you are defending your pride. We are called to be peacemakers. Quarrelers will not inherit the Kingdom of God. Some people say they are allowed to be righteously angry. We are not allowed to be angry or hot tempered.

Proverbs 20:3 Avoiding a fight is a mark of honor; only fools insist on quarreling.

Proverbs 22:24-25 Don’t befriend angry people or associate with hot-tempered people, 25 or you will learn to be like them and endanger your soul.
