Post 29: The Divine Blueprint: Transforming the World Through Newborn Babes
How God sanctifies parents and builds Zion through the sacred work of raising children.
Introduction
God has a pattern for changing the world, and it often begins with the birth of a child. From the Savior’s humble arrival in Bethlehem to the miraculous births of Moses and Samuel, history teaches us that God’s grand designs frequently hinge on newborn babes. Each child is a divine gift, brimming with potential to reflect God’s light in the world.
But this divine blueprint extends beyond the child. As parents take on the sacred responsibility of raising these eternal souls, they themselves are sanctified. In the process of guiding their children to righteousness, parents learn to emulate God’s attributes, becoming holy individuals and couples. They come to know God more intimately, experiencing His love, patience, and joy in ways only parenting can teach.
A World in Need of Godly Transformation
Today’s world is fraught with challenges—disunity, confusion, and spiritual drift. Societies ache for transformation, but lasting change doesn’t come through fleeting movements or grand gestures. True transformation begins in the home, through righteous parenting and discipleship.
The world needs more parents who see their stewardship as a divine calling, who view their children as gifts entrusted to them by God. It is through the nurturing of these children—future leaders, disciples, and peacemakers—that the world can be renewed and Zion can be built.
Newborn Babes as Instruments of Change
Throughout scripture, God’s great works often began with the birth of a child. These children—Christ, Moses, Samuel, Nephi—were raised by parents who embraced their divine calling and sacrificed to nurture these eternal gifts. But in raising these children, the parents themselves were changed.
Parenting is not just about shaping children; it is about being shaped by God. As you teach, love, and guide your child, you experience firsthand the love God has for His children. Parenting invites you to reflect God’s love, sacrifice, and patience in your own life.
As you experience the joys and struggles of raising children, you learn more about God’s eternal nature. You see His patience in your moments of frustration. You feel His forgiveness when you forgive. You taste His joy when your child progresses. In this sacred work, you are not only raising a child—you are coming to know God.
Building Zion One Soul at a Time
Righteous parenting transforms not only the child but also the parents. As you raise your child unto righteousness, you become more Christlike, growing in humility, faith, and love. This sanctification strengthens your bond as a couple, uniting you in purpose as you emulate Christ together.
This transformation creates a ripple effect. As you model God’s love in your home, your children learn to do the same, establishing a legacy of righteousness that extends into future generations. Together, as families united in Christ, we build Zion—one soul, one family at a time.
But the blessings don’t stop here. The lessons learned through parenting prepare you for celestial parenthood, aligning you with God’s divine attributes and allowing you to receive all that He has. By nurturing your children, you are nurturing your own divine potential, stepping into the role of becoming like God.
Partner With God in the Divine Work of Parenting
Are you ready to see parenting as a divine calling, a sacred opportunity to partner with God in raising eternal souls? This journey is not just about raising righteous children; it is about becoming more Christlike yourself, learning more about God’s nature, and stepping into your divine potential.
This isn’t a journey you take alone. Christ invites you to take on His yoke, promising His strength and guidance every step of the way. Together, you can learn how to raise your children while being sanctified in the process.

Conclusion
When God wants to change the world, He begins with a child. Imagine the world transformed by righteous parents who partner with God to raise children unto holiness. In this sacred work, parents are not only shaping eternal souls but also coming to know God more intimately and becoming holy themselves.
God is calling. Will you answer?
