I received a new devotional book as a gift and as I opened it up I read these words:
"How desperately our world needs courageous Chrisitan men who are willing to walk with God and honor Him with their prayers and their service. This generation faces problems that defy easy solutions, yet face them we must. So we need leaders whose vision is clear and whose intentions are pure."
I agree with this statement completely. Our homes need men who will stand up and be counted as men of God for the glory of God and for the sake of the family. How different our world would be if men would personally decide to be a man of God that will make a difference! The Lord said about Abraham,
For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him. Genesis 18:19.
My prayer for MBC, "God give us men in our church that will purpose to be men of God in their home, in their church and in their world."
Amen! "...every house is builded by some man..." (Heb 3:4). What would the world be like with more men leading their families? How would the younger generation be different? I believe there are still men out there willing to take the charge. They just need someone to show them the way.
