IMPORTANCE OF FAMILY
One of the greatest truths God ever shared with mankind, but also one of the most neglected, rejected and despised truths of modern times, is the importance of the family (blood family and spiritual family). This is because Satan knows that a Christ centered, Bible based, Spirit filled family is his greatest threat.
The family is God's plan for victory, unity, love, fulfillment, satisfaction, accomplishment, support, encouragement, healing, success. The family, which is one in purpose, and selfless in its relationships, is nearly unstoppable. We don't know this to be true because it is so rare and very few people ever witnessed the power of of God in a family.
When the Biblical graces, and the Fruit of the Spirit and godly characteristics, and Biblical lines of authority, submission, sacrifice and love, are present and nurtured and exploited in a family or Church, the light that it shines in a dark world will send the denizens of hell screeching in horror.
But what if a church will not open itself to such Divine power? What if members of a family do not surrender their will to the will of God? Well, we probably won't see this power of God unleashed on a community. However, the fact that others do not surrender, do not trust God, is not a reason for you to shut God out of your life or limit His rule in your life.
If your family fails to be what God wants it to be, if your church fails to reach its full potential, DON'T LET IT BE BECAUSE YOU REFUSED TO FOLLOW FULLY.
But if your family or church ever aligns itself with the heavenly calling, you will be part of the greatest work of God in the universe. Make yourself available to God, to your family, to your church. Not just the outward show, but the internal drive.
