Family Oriented...


Family Oriented...

"And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." (Joshua 24:15 KJV)

The Failure of Many Pastors
They have succeeded in their field of ministry, but failed their family by not being there when they needed him. Some pastors are shepherding a huge congregation, but failed to shepherd their own flocks at home. "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)

The Failure in the Society
One of the reasons why we have dysfunctional society because of  dysfunctional homes. 

The Failure in Many Churches
Many churches have all kinds of programs, but failed to organized or start a program on how to have a strong family ties. How to have a Christ centered home. How to build a home where love is in the center and the passion of every family members. (John 15:4- 5)

The Failure at Work
Some employees will come to work with truckload of baggage from home, no wonder many of our workplaces have relational and attitude issues.

We need to come home and refresh. "And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward." (1 Kings 13:7 KJV)
