Bible Texts: Ps.Ps.28:7, Heb.11:1, Ps.31:1, 2Cor.4:18, Heb.11:6, Heb.11:33, Joel 3:10, Job 22:29, 2Cor.10:4, Heb.11:6
Yesterday, by the help of the Person of the Holy Spirit, we began to look at the sixth sense and how it is our greatest heritage as good and godly husbandmen. We also understood how powerful the sixth sense is as it will help us overcome the challenges we may be having with ourselves. And that faith in God and in His word is the weapon of our warfare as shepherds for a victorious life as the good and godly man, husband and father.
But how do I grow and develop my sixth sense that is my faith and trust in God and His word for a victorious life as the good and godly husbandman?
Faith is a seed and God has planted that seed in you when you give your life to Him. So, the first step to developing the God-kind of faith is for you to give your life to Jesus Christ. Salvation is a spiritual decision a man takes. You have not seen God or Jesus Christ physically but you believe Jesus Christ exists, and you are willing to repent of your sins and accept Him into your life as your Lord and personal saviour. That is faith! You must also understand that everything in life begins as a seed, and if it is nurtured, it becomes fruits. So, also is faith.
The second step you must take is to feed the faith seed in your heart with the word of God through studying and meditating. Your confidence in knowing that God can help you is rooted in your knowledge of Him.
That I may know Him and the power of His resurrection…(Philip.3:10)
You must invest your time to know God and what He is capable of by looking into the perfect law of liberty, your Bible.
For this book of the law shall depart out of thy mouth but thou shall meditate on it day and night…….(Jos.1:6-8)
Thirdly, you must walk with the Person of the Holy Spirit. He is the One who inspires revelation from the pages of the Bible that gives you unusual faith in God.
I went up by revelation……(Gal.2:2)
The Holy Spirit brings the rhema of the word of God into your heart and that is where faith is born.
And the spirit entered into me when the Lord spake unto me (Ezk.2:2)
Fourthly, you must learn to speak in the language of the Spirit. I mean speaking in tongue. The Bible tells us that,
He that speak in an unknown tongue speak mysteries……(1Cor.14:12)
You can overcome those negative and unpleasant happenings around your life and between you and your wife and children which you cannot explain by the mysterious power of God through the Person of the Holy Ghost. I encourage you to speak in tongues as a lifestyle.
God wants you to lead your life and the lives of your wife and children as the good and godly shepherd by faith and not by the circumstances around you or with them (Ps.23:1, Jn.10:1-3, 1Cor.13:4-8, Eph.6:4, Heb.11:6). That is what makes you the good and godly husbandman.
Glory be to Jesus Christ! Hallelujah!
