Where does the battle to win over obstacles in your journey to becoming the good and godly husbandman begin? Where does the change you desire begin?
According to Dr. John Maxwell, one of my greatest teachers and mentors, permanent change and improvement always happen from the inside out. That means the change, desires, or improvement you want to see starts from your mind. Your desire to become the good and godly man, husband, and father begins in your mind. Your willingness to serve God with all your spirit, soul, and might starts from your mind. You win or lose the battle of life in your mind before it manifests on the outside.
As a man thinks in his heart so is he (Pro.23:7)
If you think you can be the good and godly husbandman, you will be. If you think you can’t, you can’t. The issues of life that defines your leadership success as the good and godly husbandman begin in your mind, hence you must guard your mind with all diligence (Pro.4:23).
Keys to winning the battle in your mind as the husbandman begins with knowing who you are in Christ (Col.3:1). Secondly, must be filled with the knowledge of the word of God in our heart in order to influence your thoughts (Rom.12:1-3). You must focus on what God says and be ruled by the word of God (Col.3:3-7). Finally, you must get rid of your old habits by substituting it with new habits derived from the word of God (Col.3:12-14). You must engage the power of fasting and prayer of faith (Mk.9:29, Gal.4:19, Heb.11:1-2)
God wants you to triumph as the man, husband and father. God wants you to be like His Son, Jesus Christ. He has made you more than a conqueror.
Hallelujah!
