BIBLE
VERSES ABOUT PARENTING
As the saying
goes “Having
a child is like having your heart walking around outside of your body.”
Any responsible parent may have already known that the process of raising a child is
full of emotions, improbability, happiness, and sorrows. Moreover, what many
parents define as training, discipline, care, and love during parenting are
really not what they truly should be when compared to God’s standards.
To raise children/teenagers the right way, there are scriptures you have to understand and put to use. Hence, I carefully selected these parenting bible verses in the following categories to save you the stress;
- Bible verses about parenting and discipline
- Bible verses about parents being wrong
- Bible verses about parents love
- Bible verses about training up a child
- Bible verses for overcoming during parenting days.

when he is old, he will not depart from it.

that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.
Proverbs

left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.

Hebrews
12:7-11 KJV
If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as
with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye be
without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not
sons. Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we
gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father
of spirits, and live? For they verily for a few days chastened us after their
own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his
holiness. Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous:
nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto
them which are exercised thereby.

little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold
