LOOKING UNTO JESUS CHRIST, WALKING IN HIS WAYS

Bible Texts: Heb.12:2, Eph.5:12, Acts 1:1, Philp.3:17, 1Thess.1:6, Lk.18:1, Jn.1:4, Jn.3:16, Jos.1:6-8, Eph.5:25, Jn.14:26, Mk.9:29, Acts 10:32-36, 2Cor.5:17

Wherefore, seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which doth so easily beset us, let us run with patience the race that is set before us. Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith (Heb.12:1-2)

As the husbandman, walking in the steps of Jesus Christ is walking in the pathway of truth, strength, wisdom, courage, kindness, mercy, forgivenenss and faith. That is what God wants you to do today. God wants you to look to Jesus Christ and walk in His ways.

The walk of the husbandman is a journey, and if you must make it as the good and godly husbandman, you must know the path and that is what Jesus Christ, represents, which you can follow.

Be ye therefore followers of God as dear children, and walk in love as Christ also hath loved us and hath given himself for us an offering  and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour (Eph.5:1-2)

But why should I follow and walk in the steps of Jesus Christ as the good and godly husbandman?

Firstly, Jesus Christ is perfect and He is love. He represents everything about the love of God (1Cor.13:4-9).

The husband should love his wife as Christ has loved the church (Eph.5:25)

Secondly, Jesus Christ makes all things new and gives a fresh start that leads to a life of freedom in goodness and righteousness.

If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. Old things have passed away, behold all things have become new (2Cor.5:17)

Thirdly, Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life.

I am the way, the truth and the life.

Finally, Jesus Christ represents the light and life that you need to be useful as the husbandman.

……that ye may have life and have it more abundantly (Jn.10:10)

Walking in the steps of Jesus Christ by following after His examples is the best way you can grow, develop and manifest the characteristics of the good and godly husbandman.

Hallelujah!
