Summary
God has a detailed and perfect plan for every individual, established even before birth, which is for welfare and hope, not calamity. Believers should trust this divine plan rather than trying to plan their own futures. Furthermore, Christians are called to live each day as a gift, focusing on the present moment rather than worrying about an uncertain tomorrow, and to diligently teach God's Word to their children.

God has a pre-ordained plan for your lifeLong before we were born, God chalked out every detail of our existence and planned for our welfare rather than calamity.Jeremiah 29:11
God's plan demonstrated in Jesus and sustained through lifeEvery detail of Jesus's life was foretold and planned by God, and God promises to carry His children from the womb all the way to old age.
Living one day at a time without anxiety for tomorrowJesus teaches us not to spoil today's joy with worries about tomorrow, because each day has enough trouble of its own and God provides.
Children are an inheritance and a gift from GodThe Bible teaches that children are given to parents as heritage and property from God, and one day parents must return that gift to Him.Psalm 127:3
Diligently teaching children God's word in everyday momentsParents are called to continually teach God's commandments to their children throughout the day so that godly values take root for the future.Deuteronomy 6:7
Balancing discipline with love and avoiding the trap of virtual worldsFathers must bring children up in the instruction of the Lord with proper balance, protecting them from the dangers of social media and virtual distractions.
God makes all things beautiful in His own timeHuman beings are often in a hurry, but running ahead of God's timetable like Moses or Jacob only leads to unnecessary pain and regret.
Rejecting the thief's distractions and keeping company with JesusWhile the enemy tries to steal our attention with temporal things, Jesus invites us to walk with Him, take His rest, and find our lives shaped by the Son.
1. Submit to authority placed over your lifeJesus lived in subjection to His parents at Nazareth, showing that young people find God's protection by respecting the authorities placed over them.
2. Make the Word of God a high priorityJesus prioritized knowing Scripture deeply, allowing Him to answer temptation by declaring 'It is written' instead of debating the enemy.
3. Depend entirely upon the Holy SpiritEntering the waters of baptism, Jesus prayed for and received the Holy Spirit, recognizing that fulfilling God's plan is impossible in human strength alone.Luke 3:21–22
4. Keep a clear goal focused on doing God's willJesus set His face like a flint toward Jerusalem and His ultimate sacrifice, avoiding earthly distractions like fame or wealth so He could finish well.Isaiah 50:7
