Bible Texts: Philp.2:12-13, Rom.9:16, Jn.3:3-10, Ecc.9:11, Jn.15:5, Heb.13:21, Jn.10:18, Acts 4:33, Gal.4:19, Jer.33:3, Ps.23:1, Acts 1:1, Zech.4:6
Walking with Jesus Christ and learning His ways as the husbandman have been the focus of the teaching for some days now because Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. However, you must understand and acknowledge that you cannot do the perfect will of God for your life as the man, husband and father without the help of God.
See what the Scripture has to say in this regards.
Wherefore, my beloved, as all of you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure. Do all things without murmurings and disputings (Philippians 2:12-14)
The word of God says that it is God who works in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure. As the husbandman you cannot attain the fullness of your ministry as the good and godly man, husband and father without the help of God (Zech.4:6). God is the only Person who can empower you to do His good pleasure and give you the testimony of the good and godly man, husband and father. Only God can help you submit to Him in all things and only He alone can empower you to obey Him in all things. The help of God is your reality.
So he said to me, this is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord Almighty (Zech.4:6) NIV
You cannot become the good and godly husbandman by your own strength or wisdom. It is the Spirit of God that empowers you to function effectively in your office as the good and godly husbandman. Whatever progress you have made and whatever improvement you have seen in your life as you journey through the road towards becoming the good and godly husbandman, you must acknowledge that God made it happen.
Therefore, acknowledge God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit as your source of your ability to do the perfect will of God. Glory be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.
