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 his or her 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 to build your house. For it is only then will your efforts bear fruits. 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 impact divine wisdom to us. It is through this Divine wisdom and understanding 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 advices:
  • Pray and seek help from God. Read Bible and meditate over the promises of God.
  • Calm down before God and let go all your bad mood. (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 a your life partner?
 May God strengthen your hand to build strong and God fearing family. May the piece of God fill your house! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    You should understand there is nothing that belongs to you. Your life itself is not yours, it’s a trust God has shown to you. Understanding this truth changes the way you respond to what is going on around you.You do not live for yourself; you did not appear on this Earth by your own act of will or for your own personal purpose. God has given life to you as a sign of His trust for you. You are entrusted with life from God and the day will come when you will have to give account to God for the life He given to you, – for all your deeds and words while living in your body.

    Heaven is the place from which Jesus rules and reigns over everything. What God says about us in His Word is the truth which we must believe. Now we have God’s nature in us and it must be continually fed and nurtured. We must believe that now we have heavenly authority and power that was given to us in order to destroy the works of devil on earth. That is what Jesus did when He walked on the planet earth: He destroyed and undo the works and intentions of the devil. He set an example for us to follow in His foot steps:«For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil» (1 John, 3:8b).

    Righteousness exalts a person and his people.When a nation turns away from his evil ways and the violence of their hands, then the new times come; joy comes instead of joy and triumph comes instead of tragedy. An entire nation can fall under the judgment of God because of the sins of its people. Sodom and Gomorrah is a clear example of how sin brings a destruction and tragedy into the life of a whole nation.

    Accountability is a sincere confession or opening of one’s secrets of his Christian walk to the others in the atmosphere of mutual trust. We are ready to give account of what we do with our lives, what we understand or do not understand, in what areas are weak or in need of assistance. When we are accountable we are willing to admit whether we are growing or not. We are able to give account of what we are learning in order to receive support, encouragement or correction.

  • How to enter your ministry?

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 5 minutes
    If a person doesn’t have any desire to serve, it is very difficult to motivate him. This desire has to be strong enough to move you to action; otherwise you won’t do anything. It is easy to teach and lead a person that has a desire and an interest in something. And it is very difficult to convince and motivate the one who is indifferent. Where does the desire to serve come from? This desire comes from the understanding of God’s will and the purpose of our salvation.
