REDEMTIVE POWER OF THE FAMILY
TEXT: Colossians 3:18-22, 1 Peter 3:7
Obey your master not with eye service, God’s original plan for man was peace and harmony just like the music world, when every part comes together to make harmony.
Adam was not found where God use to have fellowship with him. God asked him what have you done and he said the woman you gave to me.
Is no longer honey but (woman).
The woman also blamed the serpent and the family scattered. Even the trinity has their various part they play to be one. Husbands love your wife.
Only a man that has been submitted to the redemptive power of god will be able to love his wife. He should see his wife has a weaker vessel therefore he should not be brutal on her.
God was testifying of Abraham that he knows him, that he will lead his family in his ways therefore God knows us, and he told him his secret, he did not hide anything from him. were there is love for each other no one will suspect anyone.
Sarah submitted to her husband Abraham to the extent that she called him my lord.
Music can never blend if every instrument is not united, they all play different things, but they blend if all are complementing each other.
Why sometimes the church is affected is because of our families but God will heal us with his redemptive power in Jesus name.
In a redeemed family, the gift of the Holy Spirit is manifested.
The problem of the nation also started from the family, but if the family was in order there won’t be a problem in the nation.
Let us do our part by maintaining our spiritual life. Husbands and wife be ready to forgive. Servant submit and serve your master.
