As the head of your family and the spiritual authority that God has placed over your wife and children, what occupies your mind? What have you chosen to believe and who do you believe?
Leave a CommentNo intruder has the right to enter your house, except you permit him. No uninvited elements can break into your sheepfold if you don’t allow them. You are like that bouncer around the music star. You are strong, watchful and firm. As the head of the family, you have been called unto greater responsibilities- to keep and secure your wife and children against the devil, sin and the world. God has entrusted into your hands the lives of your wife and children. If anything happens to them, God will hold you accountable, just the same way he held the first husband, Adam, accountable for the failure of his wife and family in Gen.3:9.
Leave a CommentAs the head of the family, it is important that your wife and children see the nature of God the Father in you, if you want them to have a fatherly relationship with God. But you cannot achieve this if you don’t have a relationship with God, through prayers. Praying is communicating with God. It is a sign of maturity.
Leave a CommentGod has positioned you as the head of the family to oversee your wife and children. Don’t abuse the privilege of being a husband; otherwise God may leave you for the devil to torment. If He has placed you as the head of the family, it is because He considered you a responsible leader ready and prepared to bring transformation into the lives of your wife and children. When you break the hedge the serpent will bite.

Leave a CommentYou must understand that as the head of the family and overseer of your wife and children, your position will be continually threatened by the devil. He is afraid that your godly influence would lead your wife and children to heaven and make them positive influences on the earth. If you have this understanding, you would not confront your wife and children. Rather, you would confront the devil, your enemy.
Leave a CommentJesus Christ, our example of how husbands must be to their flock, died for us while we were yet in sin. He didn’t consider our weakness or failings. He nonetheless loved us and gave Himself to us. That is the character of a godly husband.
Leave a CommentThere are some husbands, who have thrown their wedding bands away because their wives provoked them. Some other husbands have relocated to the house of the strange woman. Some others have continued to deny their wives their due benevolence. It is important for husbands to note that they have been made in the image and likeness of God. What this means is that they have the nature of God in them
Leave a CommentThere is a way God wants you to handle your wife and children, if you want to avoid any damage to their lives-spirit, soul and body. Just the same way your refrigerator may develop complications if you disobey the instruction of turning it in a wrong way, so it is with you if you upturn God’s prescription as to how to live and handle your wife and children.
Leave a CommentGod has handed over His sheep and sheepfold to you-your wife and children and family. And He has also given to you clear instructions as regards what to and not do to them. If you mishandle His instructions, you may lose your access to your sheep. Your wife and children are precious in the sight of God, so you must see them in that light.
