I have been convicted lately of tell families that the model has to change. The model of a Father that is just a provider and a disciplinarian and a mother that teaches and cleans. The biblical model for a family had men teaching and moms taking care of the household. Men would pray for their wife and children. Grandparents would become the pillars of faith of the families sitting the grandchildren at their feet for teaching and instruction. Today the roles have reversed and pastors have become the teachers and taken the role of the men. Now men have forgotten to show their children how to love their wives. We have read of examples when the man lays hands of the wife and reads Proverbs 31:10-31 and women reading Psalm 112. An example of relationship that only future husbands and wives can learn at home by the example of their Parents. This is something that we all must restore. This is something that needs to happen to restore the Scriptural model for biblical families. Men must stand up to act upon the Word and love their wives as Yahshua loved the Assembly. What he did other than die? He taught her by His example, He commanded her in love, He showed her mercy and compassion, He prayed for her and much more.
Fo many years we lived with pastors, we visited pastors, we fellowship with pastors and believers and we never saw an example of biblical families. We sought for people living biblical lives by visiting so called "believers and they never opened their bibles or prayed over their wives or even correct their children with scripture. So mixed living is among those that say they believe that their marriages are a disaster and their children can not be distinguished from a crowd of worldly lost people. We found much more moving to TX and still everyone is in progress since our children let us down when they are among others sometimes.
I received an email that have prompted me to write today about this;
"At last I know the joy of Shabbat in its fullness, understanding really for the first time, how much YHVH loves the union of marriage, which He created. At last I am not just the teacher or the observer, but the blessed participant in this ancient tradition of gathering at the table to pronounce mutual blessings at sundown, the beginning of a Sabbath day. Now I truly understand how couples who pray together in unity grow so much closer and deepen their relationship in a way that is otherwise not possible."
How much we delight on our weekly appointed time and the preparation for it. Do our children learn to participate and do not see it as a mere tradition or ritual? If we ask them what is your favorite time of the week, would they answer Shabbat? The way we treat our wives is also a reflection on how much we love YHWH. Remember to tell them about the awesome priviledge to have a relationship with YHWH and Yahshua. It is all about love because Yah is love.
I hope you get it and applied it. Tonight, pray for your wives and read them Proverbs 31:10-31 ask her to read you Psalm 112 and pray the Aaronic Blessing to your children Numbers 6:23-27 and we will start rebuilding the foundational need for the role of the parents teaching their children how YHWH wants them to live their lives. Read Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and start restoring your family one step at a time. Shema Yisra'El...
Hope you feel convicted and take steps of faith towards changing the future of your inheritance. They belong to YHWH. Turn off the TV and lets sit and read Scripture.
Shalom!
