As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him
Psalm 103:13 (NIV)
"For if a man cannot manage his own household, how can he take care of God’s church?" 1 Timothy 3:5
"He must manage his own family well, having children who respect and obey him." 1 Timothy 3:4 "I have chosen him to teach his family to obey me forever and to do what is right and fair. If they do, I will give Abraham many descendants, just as I promised." Genesis 18:19
"Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord." Ephesians 4:6 "Fathers, do not provoke your children, so they will not become discouraged." Colossians 3:21
But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. 1 Timothy 5:8
"A good person leaves an inheritance for their children's children, but a sinner's wealth is stored up for the righteous." Proverbs 13:22
For when you eat the fruit of your labor, blessings and prosperity will be yours. Your wife will be like a fruitful vine flourishing within your house, your like sons and daughters olive shoots sitting around your table...May you live to see your children’s children— peace be on Israel. Psalm 128:3-6
