Bible Texts: Lk.19:10, Matt.18:11, Lk.15:8, Ezk.34:11-12, Jn.5:29, Jn.14:26, Lk.18:1, Mk.9:29, Pro.16:1, Jos.1:6-8, Ps.1:1-3, Gal.4:19, 2Tim.2:15
As the husbandman, you cannot know what is lacking in your life if you do not know the provisions God has made in His word for you as the man, husband and father. This is why you and I must continually give ourselves to the study and meditation of the word of God. The more the husbandman studies the word of God the more he knows God’s perfect plans for his life and he can tell what satan, sin and the world have stolen and he will seek to recover (Jn.10:10).
This is what Jesus Christ did.
For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost (Lk.19:10)
Jesus Christ, who is the perfect example of the good and godly husbandman came to this earth to seek and to save that which is lost. In the same vein, God has sent you to earth as the husbandman to seek and save your good and godly heritage in Christ. This means that you have the responsibility to search the word of God to find the plans and purposes of God for your life and diligently pursue them with faith, hope, courage and in righteousness.
But how do I seek and save my heritage in Christ as the good and godly husbandman?
Search the Scriptures in it ye think ye have eternal life (Jn.5:39)
The Bible is God’s manual for you. It contains God’s visions and plans for your life as the man, husband and father. Hence, the more you study and think on the word of God, the more you know what to seek and save as the good and godly husbandman (Ezk.2:2, 2Tim.2:15).
You must also engage the forces of prayer with fasting (Lk.18:1, Pro.16:1, Mk.9:29, Gal.4:19).
With the knowledge of the word of God in your hands, you then engage in prayer warfare in order to enforce in your life what you have discovered from the word of God about God’s perfect will for you as the man, husband and father.
You must not live your life to chance. You must accept responsibility to search the Scriptures with the Person of the Holy Spirit helping you. You must also accept responsibility to engage the spiritual forces of prayer and fasting to enforce the perfect will of God for your life. This is the only way your life can be transformed into the very image of the good and godly husbandman.
SPIRITUAL EXERCISE

FAITH CONFESSION
