Teach your children the fear of the Lord. In your just reading small portions or a chapter of the word of God, you will be giving instruction, fathers. You can see that this was David’s practice with his family, as he relates it in verse 11. “Come, you children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord.” David would ask his children to listen to him, and he would teach them the fear of the Lord.

But surely it will apply to his own children in his own family as well. Family worship is a good place to be able to teach your children to sit and listen. This is a very good thing. Learning to carefully listen is a great part of learning, and a godly father would teach them the fear of the Lord.
