Bible Texts: Jn.15:1-5, 1Pet.5:6, Jn.14:26, Jas.4:10, Matt.5:14-16, Rom.12:1-3, Heb.12:2, Rom.12:21, Rom.5:5, Eph.2:6, Jas.4:6
Wherefore, seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and sin which doth so easily beset us and 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)
Yesterday, with the help of the Person of the Holy Spirit, you and I understood that our perfect example of the good and godly man, husbandman, and father is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the embodiment of how the man should conduct his affairs, how the husband should love his wife, and how the father should be the positive influence over his children (Jn.7:57, Eph.5:25, Jn.8:1).
But why must I look to and learn at the feet of Jesus Christ and from His word?
It is because you are made in the image and likeness of God (Gen.1:26-28, Eph.2:6). This means that you must function like Christ (2Cor.5:17).
Jesus Christ has all the keys and answers that will make you win every challenge you may have in your life as the man, husband and father because He is the Way, the Truth and the Life (Jn.14:6).
But there is the right attitude you must have if you want to learn at the workshop of the Master, Jesus Christ.
The first is that you must have a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ by being born again and remain so (Jn.3:3-7, 2Cor.5:17).
You must always be willing and be obedient to do all of God’s commandments and instructions regarding your roles as the man, husband and father (Is.1:19).
You must be humble and remain so in your spirit so you can access the grace of God that makes learning enjoyable (Jas.4:6).
Finally, you must run your course as the husbandman with patience. The Scripture says, …..with patience run the race that is set before you (Heb.12:1b).
Every skill, knowledge, information and character trait you require to excel as the godly man, husband and father is in Jesus Christ and in His word. So, if you want your life to be like Jesus Christ as the man, husband and father, you must deliberately sign up for an apprenticeship with Jesus Christ, the perfect example of the good and godly husbandman.
The Master Teacher, Jesus Christ, is ever ready and prepared to accept and teach you as His apprentice. He said so in Jn.14:26. I will send the Comforter, the Holy Spirit. He will teach you all things…. (Jn.14:26). So, make a choice today to renew your apprenticeship with Jesus Christ and become like Him to your wife, children and in the marketplace.
Hallelujah!
