We are in a perilous times and the world is full of evil and daily children are targeted for these evil all over the world. As parents we have a hug role to play in ensuring that our kids are shielded from all evils

As the world is fast changing so also evils are fast growing in the world today
Proverb 22 vs 6 commanded parents to train up a child the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it. The question is how do we apply this scripture?

It is important to understand the place of prayers in the way a child should go, and it starts from conception till they grow old, however at teenage stage, parents should involve the children in the way they should go through prayers.


The place of prayers during pregnancy can not be over emphasized in the life of a child, it does not matter how you pray or when you pray. As a woman you should pray at all times whether as single or married

Tips on some prayers during Pregnancy
 I will carry my baby to full term
 I will not have complications throughout my pregnancy, someone may ask is this possible, yes it is possiile because with God nothing shall be impossible
 No evil shall befall my baby
 No evil eyes shall behold my baby
 When it is time to crawl, walk, talk you will
 The power to command all around us lies in the power of confession and as simple as the they sound, God hears

3 WAYS TO PROMOTE CHILDREN TO SAVE

We are in a society, where parents are busy with work and all kinds of activities, thereby leaving their kids in the hands of maid and relatives.

It is imperative for parents to understand that children must be nurtured in all areas in order to face the society and the future ahead.

It is important to promote and encourage our children to be financially responsible at the early stage of their life and this can only be possible when parents are involved.  To promote children financially give them an understanding on how to manage their money through saving, spending or investing.

  Tips on how to promote children to save;

i   Show the Act; As parents ensure you are saving and involve your children in the act. This can be achieved by having a safe box where you dropped money daily and explain to your children what you are doing and why you are doing it. Children tend to learn faster from what they see, especially what they see their parents do.
ii Reward the Act; Make saving attractive for them, this can be achieved by rewarding them for saving. For instance, tell them that they can get 10% of whatever they saved for the month.  By doing this, you are telling them that saving attracts interest 

iii Make the act attractive;   You can monetize some task done by the children,  by so doing, you are teaching them, that labor attracts reward and in order to be financially stable in life you need to work hard to earn the money.
