• It is God’s will. From Genesis to Revelation in the Bible, families hold themselves together. Isreal is Isreal today because Jacobs (renamed Israel) children held themselves together. Abraham held tight to Lot, his nephew - some self-centred Christians saw it as a problem! Jesus holds us together whether we whatever our race, tribe or tongue!
• African culture is built on LOVE - 'Be your brother's keeper"
o As a family unit, united we stand, divided we fall
o We shall better the lots of our community, State and nation.
. No intruder will be able to penetrate our family
o We'll produce glory producing children like Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka, William Shakespeare, etc
What is the worst thing that can happen if we fail to hold our family together?
• Intruders will penetrate our midst and scatter us through gossip
• We’ll betray the confidence of our forefathers by becoming self-centred
• Our family will not be in a place of honour in our villages/towns/country.
• Love will disappear from us altogether envy ourselves instead of building ourselves
. Satan has come to steal, to kill and to destroy, failure to hold our families together will make Satan a winner!
Decision: Let’s all resolve to uphold our families no matter our glaring differences. Good morning.
Biblical support: Deut. 30:19-2119 “Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live!
