MEN! MEN! MEN! READ THIS, MEN SHARE THIS, BOYS READ THIS AND WOMEN FORWARD THIS TO ALL MEN.
At the heart of God's call to restore sanity in marriages, communities and the nations are all men.
God always calls out a man and holds him accountable for all wrongs and mishaps, first in his family and the society as a whole.
Lets look at this, in the Garden of Eden, Eve gets in a conversation and trouble ensues.
God calls out Adam. Gen 3:9 "But the LORD GOD called to Adam, "Where are you?"
This portion of scripture begins with the word "but" implying there was a variation in what was expected of God.
In normal circumstances we expected God to call out Eve who was at the beginning of this whole situation. Why then, did God call out Adam?
"Where are you?" This is a question of position.
I believe God knew where Adam was. Being the Omnipresent God, He wasn't ignorant of where Adam was located but it was a question of position.
🌐God has positioned all creation to function in those positions and whenever we move out of those very positions, things go wrong.
🌐I believe God held Adam accountable for the situation because it happened under his watch and authority and worst of all he himself participated.
🌐Men, a lot of disastrous things are happening today under our watch and authority.
🌐Even today, God is calling men back to their positions in marriages, in raising children and restoring sanity in communities and nations.
In the next part, we shall look at Adam's response and what it means today.
God bless you.
