Soldier, you can not see yourself or your children unless you pray for sight.
Almost every person in the world can see the problems with the children of others,
but our own we often can not see.
I have seen this over and over.
We give allowances for the familiar habits and we often give an extra license for
our own children when they are spoiled to a stunning degree.
Christian, if you would follow the Lord, ask Him to let you see your children as He
does and as you need to see as a parent.
If you have a child who screams or demands, or says "no" more than a few times,
you have missed the boat and you need divine help. You may not simply comment
to the child or chide him. He is trying to claim the spirit of rebellion, and you had better
make his bottom hurt.
Parent, please listen:
You must do a bare-bottom spanking and it should be with a wooden spoon or
something similar. If possible, it should not be with your hand.
You must administer several blows and the bottom should be red when you finish -
depending on the severity of the offense, four or five stinging strikes with the tool. This
should be done when the offense is a deliberate act of disobedience and it should
start when the child is around one and a half or two years old. If you do it faithfully,
it will not need to happen frequently, but it must happen each time this terrible behavior
is displayed.
The pain is essential, and so is the humiliation. If you merely swat him through
his clothing, it will not have a lasting effect.
If you are not faithful and if you are even a little passive, a gifted child will suffer much
and you will miss the window of correction.
If you have a two, or three, or four year old who is saying no, or screaming, or still
deliberately disobeying while watching you, it means you have been passive and have
not dealt correctly or biblicaly with the situation.
Most children will do these things at least once as a test and will attempt to enter
into a power struggle. All children will lie at times and and most will steal at least once.
There are many offenses that must be handled, but the ones I am addressing now are
those that manifest deliberate rebellion in a little one, and open him up to demons in
the same way witchcraft does.
This behavior addicts the child to displaying rebellion when his will is crossed and it
must be treated as dangerously serious. While many other behaviors may not be
stopped immediately by correctly addressing them appropriately, these can.
These are the most serious offenses a little one can commit.
Soldier, do not be offended or worried. Just do the thing that must be done.
