God's Blueprint for Fathers

1. Be a Trainer

Proverbs 22:6 NLT- Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it.

2. Be a Disciplinarian

Proverbs 23:13–14 NLT- Don’t fail to discipline your children. The rod of punishment won’t kill them. Physical discipline may well save them from death.

3. Be a Provider and Hard Worker

1 Timothy 5:8 NLT- But those who won’t care for their relatives, especially those in their own household, have denied the true faith. Such people are worse than unbelievers.

4. Be Real and Be an Example

1 Corinthians 10:13 NLT- The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.

• Don’t get stuck.

• Don’t remain stuck.

• Don’t blame others for being stuck.

Galatians 5:1 MSG- Christ has set us free to live a free life. So take your stand! Never again let anyone put a harness of slavery on you.
