A MAN’S CALL TO MINISTRY INCLUDES HIS WIFE

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: A MAN’S CALL TO MINISTRY INCLUDES HIS WIFE

TEXT: GENESIS 12: 1-4 

SATURDAY MARCH 4th 

Key verse: Romans 12:11 “Not slothful in business, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord.”
The standard of the divine call is exemplified in the life and ministry of Abraham. Abraham was called the father of faith. The Lord was going to bring out the gospel to the world through Abraham Through Abraham we see the gospel of faith spread to the ends of the world to the point that we are called the children of Abraham. Of course, women are called the daughters of Sarah. This is the standard Christian ministry God desires for the man and the woman. Sarah played her role well to give us the gospel which we rejoice upon this day. God would want us to go through this because ministry got lost when people began to go into ministry without standards. Those that entered into ministry entered into it without this complete formation. Many are in ministry but their wives are not cooperating. For ministry to be effective, the family of the preacher must play their role. 
A tough and uncooperating wife will frustrate and destroy the privilege of ministry that God has given to the husband. God has called and anointed people giving them grace but their wives are just frustrating them. The man is just dragging, there is a battle and quarrel at home. Why? He has a wife that is frustrated with this work, a wife that does not want to raise pure, holy, dedicated men for this work, though they may be few and you that is their wife must cooperate with them. You must submit to them and play your role well with them so that they carry out this ministry successfully as Abraham did. How can the servant of God rule his own house if the wife is not cooperating? How can his children be under subjection if the wife is not cooperating if it is none of the business of the wife? She is full of the business of money, full of herself, full of complaints, full of laziness, and full of weaknesses, she is even a doorway for Satan into the house, family and so into the ministry. How can this be? That is why the Lord has to speak to women. 

Thought for the day: An uncooperative wife will hinder the ministry of her husband 

Song for the day: I have a wonderful treasure, the gift of God without measure

Bible reading for the day: Numbers 32-33; Mark 10:1-31

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
