Your duty as the head of your family is to fear God and keep all His commandments. The word of God says that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. When you reverence God and obey all His instructions as they concern you as the man, husband and father, then you will be filled with the wisdom of God. And no shepherd operates the wisdom of God and misses his place in sheepfold.

Leave a CommentNo husband has the right to demand for food from his wife when he has not provided the money. No husband has the right to speak out when other fathers are talking when it is his wife who pays the school fees. No husband has the right to claim headship of his home when it is the wife who pays the rent. It doesn’t matter how long you have been in the faith and it matters less how spiritual you are, if you are not the providing for your family, you are not fit and proper to be called the head of the family.
Leave a CommentAs the head of your family, you cannot be innocent of the company you keep. You cannot stay around smoke and not smell smoke. This is why the word of God warns that bad company corrupts good manners…..(1Cor.15:33)
Leave a CommentA man-child is a man who married but still lives like a dependent. He depends on his wife to foot the financial bills of the home, which include children’s school fees, house rent etc. He also depends on his parents for hand-outs and leeches around with his father and mother. There is nothing you can trace that they have acquired by reason of their work. Another, character of the man-child is that they manipulate people around them. They present themselves as caring people but behind it is a plot of what they can get from you. They are also self-centered. All they think of is about themselves.
Leave a CommentThere is honour in every husband. When God created the office of the husbandman, He did it so that you can live an honourable life to yourself, your wife and children and the world. So, being a husband is not a burden but a blessing.
Leave a CommentDo you want to be blessed as a man, husband and father in all you do? Do you want to be an asset to your wife and children and humanity rather than a liability to your wife and children? Do you want to prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers? Do you want to leave a worthy legacy for the world to emulate? Do you want to be that shepherd that other husbands want to follow?
Leave a CommentThe will of God for you is to reflect His righteousness in your heart, words and conduct towards all men, beginning with your sheep. He wants you to live a life that your wife and children would be proud to identify with. That is your heritage
Leave a CommentDid you know that as the head of your family, much prayer results in much power? And I once remarked that a prayerless husband is a powerless husband. And any husband who has not learnt how to win on his knees shall struggle to reign as a king and priest in his sheepfold. The truth is that challenges would come. Some will come unannounced and others expected.
Leave a CommentA lot of the time as heads of our families, we seem to be at a loss as to how to overcome the challenges that confront us. Now these challenges come from within and from without and it cuts across spiritual, emotional, mental and physical aspects of life. Some husbands have given up hope and surrendered to the pressures of the challenges. And sadly, many more are merely existing and looking defeated in every way possible.
