The Father Says Today: January 30th, 2018

The Father says today, you are not a bad parent. Even as I gave you power to become a son of God, so I gave you power to express My Father heart, that same heart by which I love and lead you. You are a leader. You are not a failure as a parent. Because I am on the inside of you and I am the ultimate Father – you are therefore fully equipped and graced to have children and to raise those children to maturity, with success and happiness in life. Refuse to allow insecurity, falsehood or the lie of the enemy to suggest you cannot be or have not been a successful parent. You are raising champions that will excel and come to promotion in everything they put their hand to. Accept no substitute wisdom for what I have said about you. Who I am on the inside of you determines your ability to parent and not any other thing.
It doesn’t matter if your parents weren’t perfect. Forgive them and move on, not living in the past. It doesn’t matter if one or both of your parents were not in the picture. All you need know and all you need to do is look to My word and raise your children REGARDLESS of their age in the way that they should go. You are never wrong to love, and you are never wrong to correct. An uncorrected child is a parentless child even if mom and dad are right there. Do not fear bringing correction, for if you love your children you will correct them as necessary. You don’t have to be perfect, you just have to be obedient. As you correct your children I will give you rest. As you love your children your home and your tribe will become partakers of a fountain of life that will bless them and promote them from generation to generation, says God.
