As the spiritual leader of your family, you must minister out of the overflow of your own spiritual life. Therefore, the first duty of a Christian husband and father is to cultivate his spiritual life. This can only be accomplished through the consistent practice of spiritual disciplines. Things like prayer, Scripture reading, study, fellowship, worship, and service. The man who makes these disciplines a regular part of his life will grow in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. And he will equip himself to be the spiritual leader of his family.
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
— 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV)
Lord, help us to practice spiritual disciples so we can become true spiritual leaders. Amen.
