DAY 19 of FASTING AND PRAYER
Bible Texts: Mk.13:36-37, Lk.18:1, Am.6:1, Jn.10:1-3, Gal.4:19, Eph.5:16, Matt.26:41, Jn.14:26, Mk.9:29, Hab.2:1, Pro.20:12, Matt.13:16, Philp.4:8
Praise be unto Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Redeemer! To God alone we give all the glory for bringing us to the last day of the year 2025. For all that He has done for us, with us, and through us, may His name be praised forever.
As we wind down the year and continue in the ongoing prayer and fasting expedition, we must awake unto spirituality and be watchful.
Lest coming suddenly he finds you sleeping. AND WHAT I SAY UNTO YOU I SAY TO ALL, WATCH (Mk.13:36-37)
Jesus Christ is calling on every husbandman to arise from his spiritual slumber and be watchful in prayers.
As the husbandman, why must I awake from spiritual slumber and be watchful?
Woe unto them that are ease in zion (Am.6:1)
You must watch over your spiritual life so you do not stray from the values and principles of the Word of God that build you to become the good and godly husbandman. Many times, you are not aware that you have started doing things that are contrary to the instructions and commandments of God. But with prayers and watchfulness, you become sensitive and aware when you have drifted because the Person of the Holy Spirit will prompt you.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him, the porter openeth and the sheep hear his voice and he calleth his own sheep by name and leadeth them out (Jn.10:1-3)
You must also watch in all watchfulness so you can continue to guard your sheepfold, that is, your home, and stop every form of ungodly influence from gaining access to the lives of your wife and your children.
But how do I watch in all watchfulness?
Firstly, you must have a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ, by acknowledging your sins, confess them, repent of them and accept the Person of Jesus Christ into your life as your Lord and personal saviour (Jn.3:3-8, 2Cor.5:17). Secondly, you must give attention to the study of the word of God, the Bible, and ask the Person of the Holy Spirit to help your understanding (Ezk.2:2, Jn.14:26, 2Tim.2:15). Each time you read and meditate on the word, with the help of the Person of the Holy Spirit, He guides you. He also empowers you to learn new things and gain fresh revelation that will help you to know the perfect will of God for your life as the man, husband and father, which will ultimately make you become the good and godly husbandman. Thirdly, you also watch by praying for yourself, your wife and your children so you and they do not fall into temptation (Matt.13:16, Matt.26:41, Gal.4:19).
Therefore, strengthen your spiritual armour today by taking spiritual responsibility. Be vigilant in your spirit so you are sensitive to the whispers of the Person of the Holy Spirit as you walk and work today and next year (Am.6:1).
Awake and be watchful!
Hallelujah!

I stand upon my watch and set myself upon the tower of the Word of God and the help of the Person of the Holy Spirit to exercise watchfulness over my life as the man, husband and father so that I can become the good and godly husbandman in Jesus name. Amen.
