Beatitudes for the Home
I haven’t posted for quite a long time because I was busy with others things. I hate the word BUSY for it stands for B-burried, U-under, S-satan’s, Y-yoke.
As Christians, we should always be watchful with the things we do and learn to prioritize things which are important to God like our ministries in sharing His word. As we study His word we will learn how important it is to have a BLESSED HOME… this serve as a guide for us…
BEATITUDES FOR THE HOME
BLESSED are the husband and wife who continue to be affectionate and considerate, loving after the wedding bells have ceased ringing.
BLESSED are the husband and wife who are as polite and courteous to one another as they are to their friends.
BLESSED are they who have a sense of humor, for this attribute will be a handy shock absorber.
BLESSED are they who love their mates more than any other person in the world and who joyfully fulfill their marriage vows of lifetime of fidelity and mutual helpfulness to one another.
BLESSED are they who attain parenthood, for children are a heritage of the Lord.
BLESSED are they who remember to thank God for their food before they partake of it, and who set apart some time each day for the reading of the Bible and for prayer.
BLESSED are those mates who never speak loudly to one another and who make their home a place where "seldom is heard a discouraging word".
BLESSED are the husband and wife who faithfully attend the worship service of the church and who work together in the church for the advancement of Christ’s Kingdom.
BLESSED are the husband and wife who can work out problems of adjustments without interference from relatives.
BLESSED is the couple who has a complete understanding about financial matters and who has worked out a perfect partnership with all money under the control of both.
BLESSED are the husband and wife who humbly dedicate their lives and their home to Christ and who practice the teachings of Christ in the home by being unselfish, loyal, and loving.

"But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD." -Joshua 24:15
But why hate the word? The word actually means being “actively and attentively engaged in work or a pastime.” A lot of Christians nowadays are not busy in work of the Lord, instead they are busy for the pastimes and other things of the world and that is why there are a lot of Christians who backslide and really are Buried Under Satan’s Yoke. But an individual and/or a family that is actively and attentively engaged in the work of the Lord have no time to backslide and they are Blessed Under the Savior’s Yoke. Matthew 11:30

I’m sorry for the wrong choice of the word hate for the word busy. What i just meant here is that this word BUSY reminds me that I should not be BUSY(Burried Under Santan’s Yoke) with the things that hinders me from doing the works of God. That i should always prioritize reading the bible,devotions,sharing the word of God here…instead of doing earthly things which is far less important than the works of the Lord. For the past few months I haven’t written or shared the word of God here…and i felt guilty for that. Thanks for the comment…God bless you and your family in Jesus name.
