Read Judges 13:8 – Then Manoah prayed to the LORD: “O Lord, I beg you, let the man of God you sent to us come again to teach us how to bring up the boy who is to be born.”
Manoah was soon to be the father of Samson. Manoah felt the need to seek the guidance of the Lord in the raising of Samson even before the child's birth. He recognized his child as a miracle and a precious gift of God. He wanted God's guidance upon the raising of his son. Every dad should seek the Lord for insight and awareness in raising their children. Raising greatness in a child can only be done by godly instruction. You might be able to teach them how to play baseball or conduct business by what you know. However, you can only teach them how to be people of God by teaching the Word of God and relying on His grace. Lean upon Christ for wisdom in raising your children.
