Bible Texts: Matt.16:21, Jn.3:3-7, 2Cor.5:17, Jn.14:6, 2Tim.2:15, Jn.5:39, Jn.14:26, Jer.33:3, Jn.8:32, Jn.15:5, Philp.2:13, Lk.18:1, Mk.9:29
The husbandman is a leader in his home, and as a leader, there is a way God wants him to lead.
From that time forth began Jesus to show unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes and be killed and be raised again on the third day (Matt.16:21)
Jesus Christ, who is the perfect example of the good and godly husbandman, showed his disciples the way, the truth, and the life. He provided guidance for them. And this assured the disciples of a great and fulfilled future as they followed Jesus Christ. This is what God expects you to do as the husbandman and shepherd to His sheep (your wife and children) in your custody. God wants you to lead them according to His word.
But how do I lead my wife and children like Jesus Christ led His disciples?
I am the way, the truth and the life (Jn.14:6)
You must first know the way before you can lead your wife and children in the way they should go according to the word of God (Acts 3:6). And for you to know the way, you must have a personal relationship with the Person who knows the way, Jesus Christ (Jn.3:3-7, 2Cor.5:17). The more you know Him, the more He reveals Himself, His truth and His ways of life to you. And this is how you become empowered to lead your sheep in the ways they should go and the truth they should know.
And for you to remain the good and godly leader, you must continue giving attention to studying the word of God to discover the way, the truth and the life of God (Jn.5:39, Lk.18:1, Jn.14:26, Gal.4:19, 2Tim.2:15). The more of God’s word you have in your spirit man, the better your ability to lead in truth and in the way and admonition of the Lord (Jn.8:32).
As the husbandman, God wants you to do so much with your life as the leader. God wants you to lead your wife and children after the pattern that Jesus Christ laid. God wants you to represent Him well as the good and godly man, husband, and father.
Therefore, you must make yourself available for God, through Jesus Christ and the Person of the Holy Spirit, to be the good and godly leader both at home and in the market place.
Hallelujah!
