START FROM YOUR OWN HOUSE!

 Start from Your Own House! 

“But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.” 1 Timothy 5:8 (KJV)

A house is simply a structure in which people live. In other words, it is a dwelling place for individuals and families. Every human being is born into a family where the language, culture, values, etc. are learned and become part of our lives. The knowledge for building a house comes from God. He also gives the understanding to learn languages, culture, values, etc. It is God’s idea that when one becomes an adult, they learn how to provide for their household (Genesis 2:15). It is a place where God teaches responsibility. God takes the family seriously and assesses our abilities and capabilities at that level, to decide when we are ready for a bigger responsibility. Thus, if a person cannot provide for their household, it is obvious that they cannot do better in the church or house of God. Dear beloved, are you providing for your own family? If you are of age to work, then God expects you to work in order to provide for your family. God is always willing to work with you on that if you avail yourself to Him and make up your mind to be a blessing to your household. Beloved, if you do very well at the family level, then God can trust you with the responsibilities in the church. Once you are able to handle the family and the church very well, then you become qualified to take on a higher assignment such as national and international duties, like David (1 Samuel 16:12–13). Hallelujah! God bless you!

Prayer Point: My dear heavenly Father, Your Word is like honey to my taste and I love it. I avail myself to You. Please equip me to be able to provide for my family and take on responsibilities in the church. Let me do my responsibilities so well that I will be qualified for national and international assignments in Jesus’ name. Amen! Everyday with Jesus on www.miheanyi.blogspot.com House of Joy there is power in God's word.
