A message to all fathers and mothers on the VALUE of a godly home:Today, I am sending you a message to all fathers and mothers from my husband, Colin, about the VALUE of a godly home.
THE INESTIMABLE VALUE OF THE CHRISTIAN HOME
Home is meant to be a place where we experience first-hand the love of a devoted wife and mother. Every child needs a fulltime mother. She understands that mothering in her home far surpasses all other careers. It is her No. 1 career.
God ordained the home to be the No. 1 place where all Christian families are to be lovingly nurtured by their mothers (Psalm 128:3 and Titus 2:3-5).
• Every Christian home needs a husband and father who will do his very best to demonstrate his love for his wife and family at all times, especially in the home.
• Every Christian husband and father must have the revelation of the great value of homeschooling, home-loving, home-training, home-safety, and home Bible devotions. To this end, he must work willingly and diligently to protect and provide for all the needs of his wife and family.
• Tremendous pressure is put upon the stay-at-home mother to vacate the home. Therefore, all Christian men, and especially church pastors, should go out of their way to strongly encourage the stay-at-home wife and mother.
• Every husband should affirm his wife’s great value and worth in the home. This can never be underestimated.
I believe the nation is as strong as its homes and families. Often the home is vacant day after day from 8 am to 6 pm. Nurseries, daycares, and state schools (including private schools) cannot make up for a mother’s loving smiles, understanding, encouragement, training, and discipline.
• Without a mother, the home is nothing but an empty shell. The mother provides the loving atmosphere in the home.
• Without a mother in the home, the home is sterile and boring.
• Without a mother in the home, it becomes meaningless and without a rudder.
• Without a mother in the home, it loses its anchor and begins to drift to liberal ideologies and eventually crash on rocky shores.
Men, do not encourage your wife away from her nest of little ones. Even older children still need the stable guidance and security of their mothers in the home.
The socialists want woman out of the home. They want to destroy the value of the homemaker. Don’t be ruled by their deceptive ideologies.

Jesus said that the attitude of Christians in the end times should be to watch and pray. This speaks of alertness. To be honest, the church should right now be full of the most alert men in the world. This would be the case if "Christian" men would take the words of Christ to heart.
Take time to Read Revelation 2:1-7. This word to the Ephesus church reveals that the fire of our “first love” to Jesus Christ is far more important than many other commendable things we may do for Christ—
“A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God's truth is attacked and yet would remain silent.”
“The militant church is one that never retreats but advances, conquering every stronghold of the enemy through prayer and perseverance.”
“If Jesus preached the same message ministers preach today, He would never have been crucified.”
I don’t believe Christian couples should be like hedgehogs to one another. I mentioned this when speaking at the Above Rubies Family Retreat in Florida recently. A woman approached me and said that she and her husband were Mr. and Mrs. Hedgehog and could they both receive counsel about the matter.
“For the truth’s sake, and because the true God is on our side, let us in these modern days of warfare emulate the warriors of Israel, and unfurl our banners to the breeze with confident joy. Dark signs of present or coming ill must not dishearten us; if the Lord had meant to destroy us, He would not have given us the gospel.”
"The simple step of a courageous individual is not to partake in the lie. One word of Truth outweighs the world."
Have you heard about the Isaiah62 prayer and fasting for Israel. It began yesterday, 7th May and will continue until 28th May.
"Pain insists on being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pains. It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world."
"The goverment you elect is the government you deserve."
"The evangelical church has largely failed to be the Church Militant. We are in a war. If you don't understand this, when the bullets start flying, you will say 'we've got to be nicer,' 'we've got to be more relevant.' That's simply wrong-headed. This world is not our friend.
"I'd rather have 10 people that want God, than 10,000 people who want to play church."
It's wrong for men to sit back and let their wife take all, or most of the family responsibilities. Men should help when needed. They should give godly advice and discipline when needed. They should also take their responsibility to lead the family in daily Family Devotions.
“We believe that the Bible, as written in the original Hebrew and Greek languages, is the very word of the only wise and the only true God, with whom one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day, who saw the end from the beginning, and not only the end, but every stage of the way.
“We cannot listen for a moment to men, however profound in their reading and thinking, who dare to treat God’s book as though it were man’s book, and speak of those pages that were penned by the All wise, Almighty, and Eternal God, as though they were the production of a shallow and short-sighted mortal.”
Amid the cares of married strife
“We are not commanded to agree with one another but only to love one another.”
