DAY 33 of FASTING AND PRAYER
Bible Texts: Matt.20:26-29, Rom.8:17, Jn.10:15, 1Cor.2:16, 2Cor.5:20, Jn.3:16, Gal.4:19, Eph.5:25, Jn.3:30, Gen.22:18, Jn.10:1-2, Deut.6:6-9, Lk.18:1, Gen.12:2
As the husbandman, how much of yourself are you willing and ready to sacrifice for the good of your wife and children? What sacrifices are you prepared to make to become the good and godly man, husband and father?
Jesus Christ, the perfect example of the good and godly husbandman, sacrificed His convenience and everything to restore mankind to the path of fellowship with God, the Father.
But it shall not be so among you but whosoever will be great among you, let him be you minister. And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant. Even so as the Son of man came not be ministered unto, BUT TO MINISTER, AND TO GIVE HIS LIFE A RANSOM FOR MANY (Matt.20:26-28)
Jesus Christ paid the price so others can be free and be established. Jesus Christ left His comfort zone in heaven to come to earth for the good of mankind. And when He came, He said, “even so the Son of man came to minister and to give his life a ransom”.
As the husbandman, you are a joint heir with Jesus Christ (Rom.8:17). You have the mind of Christ. You have the capacity to make important sacrifices for your life to reflect the true nature of Christ in your words, your works and your deeds, and to nurture your wife and children in the way and admonition of the Lord.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son…. (Jn.3:16)
God wants you to put your life on the line for them.
What are the sacrifices I must make for my wife and my children?
You must continually stand in the gap in prayer for your wife and children, praying for them (Lk.18:1, Gal.4:19). You must make their lives comfortable and not burdensome (Gen.12:1-2). You must always give their spiritual, mental, emotional and physical well being first place in your life by investing your time, skills, knowledge and finances in them (Deut.6:6-9, Eph.5:25, Col.3:19, Eph.6:4). You must deny yourself the attraction of sin and ungodliness and embrace godliness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost to gain eternal life (Gal.5:21-23, Rev.21:6-8).
God has called you to serve His interests on earth and the best interests of your wife and children. Therefore, give your best to your wife and to your children because you are a Christ, and that is the pathway to becoming the good and godly husbandman.
Hallelujah!
