Bible Texts: Heb.11:1-3, Hab.2:4, Rom.10:17, Jn.15:5, Heb.11:6, Mk.9:23, Rom.10:10, Rom.4:17, Gal.4:19, Jos.1:6-8, Heb.11:30-32
The just shall live by faith……..( Hab.2:4)
I have discovered that one of the greatest weapons the husbandman requires to do all that God commands him to do as the good and godly man, husband and father is faith. I also discover that faith is a spirit and without faith in God and in His word, it will be impossible to love your wife as Christ loves the church and lead your children in the way of the Lord Jesus Christ.
But why do I need to live by faith?
You need faith to stand in the place of prayers and intercession for yourself and for your wife and children even when they do not deserve it (Gal.4:19, 1Tim.5:8, 2Thess.3:10). Faith helps you to believe what God says rather than what you feel, think or what other people say or the circumstances. Faith empowers you to obey all the commandments of God for your life as the man, husband and father, even when it is not convenient for you (Heb.11:6).
In order for you to live and lead by faith in God and His word and triumph as the husbandman, you must invest your time in the word of God by studying it, thinking about what it says (Jos.1:6-8, Rom.10:17). The more you give attention to the word of God in seeking His plan for your life as the husbandman, the stronger you become in taking bold steps of faith.
You must also engage the weapon of prayer and fasting to build your inner confidence to believe what the word of God says which you have read and believed (Mk.9:29, Lk.18:1). Praying the word of God into your life empowers your faith to obtain the promises of God for your calling as the husbandman.
Finally, you must confess and act on the word of God for your life as the good and godly man, husband and father regardless of the circumstances (Rom.10:10). This means that you must discipline your tongue to speak what God says and not what satan, sin, the world and your circumstance is saying.
When you live by faith in God and His word and act upon the word of God boldly and confidently, you will live a victorious life and fulfill God’s mandate on your life as the good and godly man, husband and father.
Hallelujah!
