Bible Texts: Ps.127:1-2, Heb.11:6, Jn.15:3-5, 1Pet.5:5, Acts 15:16, Matt.7:7, Ps.51:10, Lk.18:1, Eph.6:4, Col.3:17-19, Gal.4:19
Yesterday, we discover that the husbandman is a prophet and as a prophet he has the power to make declarations according to the word of God over his life and the lives of his wife and children.
However, as the husbandman walks in the prophetic office, it is very important for him to acknowledge that only God can confirm his prophetic declarations through Jesus Christ.
Except the Lord builds the city, they labour in vain that build it; except the Lord watches over the city the watchmen waketh but in vain (Ps.127:1)
The word of God in Psalm 127 says that except God builds and watches over your life as the man, husband and father, you will not attain the fullness of your heritage as the good and godly husbandman. This is why it is wisdom to make Jesus the Lord over all and give Him first place in your life.
But why does God want to confirm my declarations through Jesus Christ?
God is interested in the goodness of your life and home. God wants you to prosper and be respected and honoured as the man, husband and father. God wants you to function optimally with proofs as the good and godly man, husband and father. (Gen.2:18, Jn.10:10, 3Jn.1:2)
Without me, ye can do nothing (Jn.15:4-5)
Your education is good. Your financial status is also good. The position you hold is good too but they cannot build your prophetic office. Only God can build you to become the good and godly husbandman after the character and nature of Jesus Christ.
Therefore, you must engage with God through Jesus Christ our Lord, to build and watch over your life as you lead at the home front and in the market place so that you can enjoy the power and authority of a prophet.
Hallelujah!
