THE 3-DIMENTIONAL HUSBANDMAN

Spread the love

Bible Texts: Rom.13:11-14, Jas.4:17, 1Jn.4:8, Jn.3:16, Rom.12:2, Jn.4:24, Rom.6:14, Col.3:19, Philp.2:5

The topic in today’s devotional is a well known concept in graphic designs. It means having a view of an object from three angles or perspectives. And by the grace of God, the Person of the Holy Spirit wants to communicate three vital areas you must work on if you want to be and continue to function like the good and godly husbandman.

Let us take a dive into the Bible passage in Romans chapter 13 and from the word carve out three action steps you must take daily as the good and godly man, husband and father.

And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to AWAKE OUT OF SLEEP, for now is our salvation nearer than we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand, let us therefore CAST OFF THE WORKS OF DARKNESS, and let us put o the armor of light. Let us was honestly, as in the day, not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envy. But PUT YE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof (Rom.13:11-14).

As the godly husbandman and the head of the family, you must awake from your slumber. You have given so many excuses why you cannot act and conduct yourself like the good and godly husbandman would (1Tim.3:1-4, Eph.5:25, Eph.6:4, Jn.3:16). It is now time for you to shake off the excuses and be alive to your responsibilities as the godly man, husband and father.

Secondly, you must lay aside the undisciplined patterns of the flesh (Rom.6:1-4). You must be disciplined with your time, emotions, finances and relationships. If you check yourself, you will observe some patterns in your life that are contrary to God’s expectations of you. It could be uncontrolled anger, sexual desires, bitterness, envy, dishonesty, strife, drunkenness, unforgiveness and much more. It is time for you to say no to these ungodly tendencies.

Thirdly, you must put on Jesus Christ, the same way you out on your dress (Philp.2:5). The life of Jesus Christ must reflect from inside out. It is not enough for you to say that you know what to do or that you love your wife and children in your heart. You must demonstrate it for them and others to see. If you have a nice dress that you want your friends to see and admire, you don’t just keep it in your wardrobe. You wear it on your body.

Therefore, the next time you think you could become the good and godly husbandman to your wife and children, consider the 3-DIMENTIONAL AREAS OF THE GODLY HUSBANDMAN.
