SERVICE TITLE : THREE ELEMENTS TO A PEACEFUL FAMILY LIFE
Confessions:
The Lord reigns in my life. He reigns in my family. He reigns in every circumstance that concerns me.
I affirm that my life is upgraded today by the power of God’s Word.
The entrance of God’s Word into my spirit grants me the light by which I function in the high levels of God’s glory.
As I study and reflect on the Word today, my spirit man is illuminated to become a sure guide. Therefore, I know I won’t walk in confusion. For I have in me the light of life. I declare right now by the power of God’s spirit that I am reigning in life, in my health, job, finances and in every area of my life. The glory of God is manifested in me
And I walk in the victory and dominion of Christ today. I walk in the victory and dominion of Christ today.
Praise the Lord.
I manifest success, glory and excellence by the power of God’s Spirit. I walk day after day by the light of God’s Word. I am not moved by the natural circumstances that exists in the world. God’s Word is my light by which I operate in everything that concerns me. I am aware of God’s bountiful provisions for me. I am aware of God’s bountiful provisions for me. And I am enjoying them. Because I see by the greater light of His Word. I am empowered by God to rule and dominate my world with His Word. The Word of faith is in my heart and in my mouth and I as I speak them forth, they produce the desired results. I am obtaining promises, producing righteousness everywhere I go. And effecting changes by the Word of God through faith. Through faith I have overcome the world. Through faith I have overcome the world. Blessed be God!!
SERVICE NOTES
Because of you who are born again every member of your family is destined for glory, beauty and excellence.
What is a family?
A family is a group of people that are related to one another by blood or marriage. Or :
A group of either one or two parents with their child/children. Family is not a human idea. It is from God. Because God ordained through families that His Will, will be done.
God has raised your family up so that His blessings will reach out to other people on the face of the earth. God expects every one of us to discover His goodness and propagate it. Unfortunately, the devil carries out His plans through families to destroy the world. But thank God we are from God’s Family. God wants you to see the purpose of your family. God wants you to take your focus off the evil things that are happening in your family. Don’t complain about your family. Understand that God never does anything wrong. He is a perfect God. Nobody choses the family they want to come to. God is the author of life. He ushers you into this world through a family.
You are a goodness to your family. A family is a place of love. A place of warmth. A family should be a place health, a place of purpose. That is what your family should be. And as long as God is concerned, that is how your family is.
Three beautiful elements that God has given us:
1. PEACE- Peace means tranquility. Quietness of mind and spirit. A state of oneness with God and yourself. Where your life does not succumb to the challenges around you. Peace is not an absence of challenges. Consider the mouth. It has two major parts. The Teeth and the tongue. The tongue helps you to determine taste and enjoy or reject whatever has been put in the mouth. In a home there are two major people. The husband and the wife. The husband is the teeth and the woman, the tongue of the home. She brings out the beauty of the family. They both work together for a common purpose. Peace is God’s gift to us. John 14:27. This is peace beyond human understanding. You have peace and you carry peace with you everywhere. For you to enjoy a family let the peace in you come out. Peace reigns in your mind, spirit and home. You carry peace all the time. 2 Thessalonians 3:16(KJV,AMPC). This is the kind of peace God wants to reign in your home. In the place of peace, grace and prosperity will always reign. When peace doesn’t reign in your life, you are not able to see the beauty of the family. Where there is peace, you are able to think right. In a place of peace, prosperity abounds. Who is the one that must ensure that there is peace in your home? Ans: you. There is peace in your spirit. A family is raised for God’s purpose. In the place of peace, you discover that your divergent opinions are actually a blessing. Proverbs 17:1(AMP,MSG), Philippians 4:6(NKJV). Usually the things that family members quarrel about are things that God has actually given them in abundance. Recognize your role and place in your family and thank God for the opportunity.
2. JOY – Joy means delight. Exuberance and great pleasure. Jesus corrects in love and gentility. God wants your family to be full of joy. God has given us joy but it must be evident to all. Psalm 16:11. God’s presence is in your home. In His presence there is FULNESS OF JOY. Nehemiah 8:10. Don’t allow circumstances to weigh down your joy. Will your sadness erase your problems? Certainly not. Remember that the joy of the Lord is your strength. There must be fulness of joy in your heart. Proverbs 17:22, Romans 14:17(NKJV). The Kingdom of God is not about what you eat or wear but Righteousness and Peace and Joy in the Holy Ghost. You are a blessed man. Your joy is NOT dependent on the things around you. Sometimes the things that come to us are a test of where our hearts really are. There is a focus. There is a life. So, allow the joy of the Spirit to bubble in your heart.
3. LOVE- Love is a deep affection an intimacy. Love goes with caring and regard. Love goes with friendship. In the environment of love, EVERYTHING IS PERFECT. Your family is your first testimony as a child of God. It’s a testimony of success and you will not fail. 1 Corinthians 13:1-13. Love suffers long. If you think it is long go and ask God how long is Long. Because this is His Word. The environment of love is the environment of perfection. Love is kind. Love does not envy. Love is not proud. Study 1 Corinthians 13 to learn more about love. Allow the Word of God to be your foundation and have respect for one another in your family. Home is where we make mistakes and yet we appreciate it. A family is a place where we don’t use someone’s mistakes yesterday to judge them tomorrow. Love believes all things. Love hopes all things. Love endures all things. When you start operating in love you have become a man. You have come to Maturity. The family is not a place for boxing tournaments for your neighbors to discover who the winner is. Learn to take advantage of what God has given to you.
