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
I have come to discover that any husbandman who wants to be like Jesus Christ, the perfect example of the good and godly husbandman, must live a sacrificial life for his wife and children. Sacrifice is the demand for the husbandman who wants to be good and godly.
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, the perfect example of the good and godly husbandman, sacrificed His convenience and everything to restore mankind back to the path of fellowship with God, the Father. He gave his life for a ransom for all. As the husbandman, how much of yourself are you willing and ready to give 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?
Now, what does God want you to give to your wife and children? What are the sacrifices you must make?
You must continue to stand in the place of intercession, praying for your wife and children (Lk.18:1, Gal.4:19). You must continue to 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 continue to deny yourself the temporary attraction of sin and ungodliness, and embrace the life of holiness, purity, good conscience, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost (Matt.5:14-16, Gal.5:21-23, Rev.21:6-8).
God has called you to serve His interest on earth and in the lives of your wife and children. Therefore, give your best to them because you are a Christ, ordained to be the good and godly husbandman.
Hallelujah!
