Three Kinds Of Families || Funke Felix Adejumo
Funke Felix Adejumo: I want to speak to you about your children or your family. There are three kinds of families;
- Parent centered family.
Parent centered family and that’s the kind of situation of families that most of us grew up in. Daddy and mummy were in charge. Every decision was about daddy and mummy; sit down, come here, “hey.. daddy’s coming”, “hey mummy’s coming” and that is what goes on in Africa.
In case that is what you are still running in your family, it has expired.
Hebrews 1:1, God who used to.. Now, this is how he does it. Principles don’t change but methods change. If in your family, it is still parent centered, it has expired.
You cannot raise your children in this 21st century that way anymore, is not going to work. In case you don’t know, maybe some other time, I’m going to speak on that later.
- Child centered family.
Child centered family or children centered family, that is rubbish. Where the child is in charge of everything, “you know she’s my only child” “you know I pray and prayed and prayed if not that God used Bishop Adejumo, I wouldn’t have had a child”.
So, the child has become spoiled, rotten, finished, useless, because you are running a child centered family. It’s not going to work.
For your sake, wake up, it is wrong to let your children be at the center of your parenting
skills. Many children are cursing their parents today, even though those parents are dead or alive. “I wish my mother allowed me to work with my hands, instead of taking me around, doing all sorts of things”. “I wish my mother taught me how to earn money and stop depending on people to give”. Because everybody is a Psychologist, they’re going to be tired after some time, except they don’t work for their money.
They always giving you and giving you and giving you, write it down that FFA said it, “a time is coming when they will lock their doors, their gates but they will not pick your calls. There are children today cursing the memory of their fathers and their mothers because they didn’t teach them how to earn money.
Child centered family is wrong.
- Balanced family.
Not parent centered, not child centered but balanced. Daddy has a say, mummy has a say, the children will be listened to but ultimately
at a certain age, Daddy has the final say. The box stops on Daddy’s table, because anything that has more than one head, is a monster.
So, my royal ladies, honor your husbands, let them sit on their God-given thrones. Don’t struggle with your husbands, let them be, then take your place beside them, collaborate with them and together raise your children to become far above rubies.
The Lord bless you, the Lord keep you, the Lord cause his face to shine upon you.
