Jesus is the head and the chief builder of the happy family

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
Hello, dear brothers and sisters! My greatest desire and prayer for you is that the will of God might prevail in every area of your life, especially in your family life. Family life can become a hell on earth, but I know everybody wants their family to be a heaven on earth. However, this does not happen automatically. It will take special efforts and allowing Jesus to become the head and chief builder of your family. 
Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain. (Ps.127:1).
 
For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. (Hebrews 3:4)
 Jesus is the head and the chief builder of the happy family. Allow God to guide your family and build your house. For it is only then that your efforts will bear fruit. How does God build a house or guide us in our family life? He does that through His Word!
The precepts of the LORD are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes. (Psalm 19:8)
 God’s revelation strengthens our hearts and imparts divine wisdom to us. It is through this divine wisdom and understanding that our house can be built and established. 
 By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; (Proverbs 24:3)
 This is why the Bible invites us to seek wisdom in God’s Word:
 Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. (Josua 1:8)
 In case your family is going through a tough time right now, try to apply the following godly advice:
  • Pray and seek help from God. Read the Bible and meditate on the promises of God.
  • Calm down before God and let go of all your bad moods. (Never make any serious decision under the influence of your bad mood.)
  • Do not try to speak when you are angry. Cool down. Remember, words can hurt people.
  • Do not resent yourself. Remember, Jesus loves you anyway.
  • Always be ready to forgive.
  • In case you have constant arguments with your spouse, ask yourself a question: Have I decided to love or not to love him/her?
  • Do you need to try and look with the eyes of Christ? What do you see?
  • Recall all the nice and sweet moments from the beginning of your relationship. Why did you choose him/her as your life partner?
 May God strengthen your hand to build a strong and God-fearing family. May the peace of God fill your house! Pastor Rufus Ajiboy

    Jesus said that He received the Word and message from the Father. How did He manage this? Thanks to His prayers! Jesus drew near to God in prayer and God approached Him. The result of fellowship between Jesus and the Father, was the fact that God gave Jesus the Word and message. God revealed to Jesus what needed to be done, as well as when and with what to do it. As a result, Jesus always did miracles.Here´s where the secret of success of Jesus was hidden! Here´s where Moses´ success lay! Here´s where God is hiding the key to success for all the men and women during all the history of the Church.

  • Without the Holy Spirit we are not able to manifest God in our lives

    1) Jesus gave some commandments to the Apostles BY THE HOLY SPIRIT (verse 2).Jesus Himself relied on the Holy Spirit in everything He did during His days in flesh. When He took on flesh, He was limited by it and He needed the Holy Spirit. As people we live in flesh and we also are limited by it. The only way for us to overcome these limitations is to rely on the Holy Spirit. We must be aware of the necessity and our dependency on the Holy Spirit. We must seek Him daily.

  • Calling forth convincing and irrefutable proof

    Many people expect miracle in their life and sometimes the waiting continues many years. I want to help you today to see that we should not wait for a miracle to come, but we need to call forth and cause these miracles. Any miracle that a person desires to experience in his life can be brought about by this person. It is possible that the miracle won’t come right away, but when you build the necessary (natural) platform for it, it will absolutely come into your life. And when it happens you will have undeniable proof for your faith and trust in the Lord.

  • Preparation of the way of the Lord

    Today I would like to talk to you about the preparation of the way of the Lord. The preparation of the way precedes the coming of the Lord. Our readiness to meet God determines the actual experience with God. If we are not ready, we will be left outside of what God is doing. But if we are adequately prepared, we will be qualified to experience the visitation of the Lord. Let’s look the Scripture.

  • Hope of salvation II

    Today Abraham´s example shows us the way of life we should live in this world. It also helps us to understand the role of hope at the battle of the last days. Nothing in this world captured him nor temptation to become rich could influence his relationships with God, because he had the hope of salvation. Having the hope of salvation makes walking in faith easy nowadays. Regardless of what you have or lack you can easily rejoice even nowadays.
