Does that sound weird to your ears? I know what you are thinking, how can a human train a god? Well, it will take a god to train a god. May I ask, who are you?
“I said, ‘You are “gods”; you are ALL sons of the Most High.’---Psalm 82:6 NIV
With this well laid foundation, shall we proceed? What led to this article was a conversation I had with a friend and also, a promise I made in yesterday's article concerning putting this one up. So if you followed up with yesterday's article, here comes the promise and if you didn't, kindly go through here.
The world is swerving into a direction of imbalance. Things happening here and there and the entire news spreading faster thanks to technology. Everyone is NOW a broadcaster and it comes with advantages and disadvantages. The recent kidnapping in the Eastern part of the country sent shock waves across the country concerning how banditry is gradually spreading down from the North.
I will always say, Pray for your country, pray for your continent and other continents of the world. When you think it doesn't concern you regarding distance, indirectly, we can be inconvenienced. On second thought, a good son isn't happy to see his father's house in ruins. Was this the essence of God giving Earth to man? To face oppression and so many other inconveniences. Of course not, this is why we need to pray.
Nevertheless, I will want to add, ‘WATCH AND PRAY’. Wanting a change is one thing, being ready to work it out is another. It is people that cause change, God has always partnered with a willing mind to liberate a generation. This is when it boils down to, if you don't like a corrupt nation, what part are you playing.
We have to start tracking down the possible root of corruption and one of it is poor parenting. It is something many ignore, but the fact is ‘dead flies give perfume a bad smell’. This world needs well trained children and not just giving birth to children that end up a minus to their generation.
Better parenting has been ignore all that is prioritized is food, shelter, security and good education. Very surprising, this is many just trying to fit into the society. Very few care about moral upbringing and in the end, children grow up wild. Without better morals they are in the place of Power, what do you expect?
To conclude, let is a call for godly children raising. Ignoring it has already done many damages. We need gods not humans populating the earth with no impact or I should put, being a negative impact to the society.
Coming back to my country, Nigeria can be a better place if godly children rise to join the good fight against corruption. Success has stage and early training to despise corruption is very necessary. The idea is to gradually replacing bad with good is of utmost importance. This war against corruption can be won, but first, parents must sit up.
”Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.”---Proverbs 22:6 NKJV
