Bible Texts: Hab.3:17-19, Matt.11:6, Ps.98:1, Ps.96:12, Ps.100:1-2, Is.61:3, Ps.119:89, Num.23:19, Philp.4:4, Philp.2:13, 1Thess.5:16-18, 2Chro.20:22, Matt.7:7, Jn.10:10
I attended a marriage and relationship seminar last week. On the sideline, I shared a few key biblical truths with someone, and I also listened in on the teaching on mid-life pressure and how it has resulted in untimely death and severe health challenges to the husbandman.
So, today, let me share with you, my co-traveller on this journey to becoming the good and godly man, husband, the secret to staying in the place of rest in Jesus Christ. It is the joy of the Lord (Hab.3:17-19).
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called the tree of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that they might be glorified (Is.61:3)
Anytime it appears you are sad and burdened in your spirit, please know that the spirit of heaviness is creeping in to make you murmur and complain and steal your joy (Num.11:1). Immediately ask the Lord to fill you with the garment of praise.
O sing unto the Lord a new song, for he hath done marvelous things, his right hand and his holy arm hath gotten him the victory (Ps.98:1)
Praise and worship songs have the power to lift your soul and help you see through the faithfulness of God and His word. It cures discouragement, hopelessness and fear (Ezk.2:2). The more you allow the songs to reach your soul, the more hopeful you are for a glorious tomorrow in God.
As the husbandman, it may seem as if your faith in the word of God and your work of faith towards becoming the good and godly man, husband and father is not yielding the results you want to see in your life. It is like the more you believe the word of God and walk the truth of its instructions for you as the man, husband and father, the more you fail in becoming the godly husbandman. Don’t give up on God and His word (Matt.11:6). He never lies (Num.23:19).
Rejoice! Again, I say be joyful! The joy of the Lord is your strength.
Hallelujah!
SPIRITUAL EXERCISE
- Father, in the Name of Jesus, forgive me for allowing the spirit of heaviness and ingratitude to gain root in my life.
- Father, in the Name of Jesus, deliver me from the spirit of murmuring and complaining.
- Father, in the Name of Jesus, baptize me with the spirit of joy and empower me to have the attitude of gratitude.
FAITH CONFESSION
My God is faithful and His word is true, therefore, I rejoice always and joy in the God of my salvation, regardless of the challenges, because that is the attitude that makes me an overcomer as the good and godly husbandman in Jesus name. Amen.
