Top Bible verses about your child

Bible verses about children give the needed answers to all the questions which arise in families. The first child to a parent created the eternal problem of human relationships, which originated in the Garden of Eden! The first to break this once-perfect relationship was our great grandparent, the first man - Adam. How much has been said and written on this endless subject since then? However, the biggest wisdom is still gathered in the Holy Scripture.

  • 1 Timothy 2:1-15: First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.

  • Romans 7:2: For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage.

The problem of our time is that children, just like many parents, are completely unfamiliar with God’s, Biblical principles of proper family relationships. In public schools God and His Law is usually not taught. How can children learn thanksgiving Bible verses? Even in many Christian families today they no longer teach about Christian principles.

So be sure to study Bible verses about children being a blessing and not just quotes about family and show them to your kids!

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
