21 June 2009 Sunday Sermon

"Responsibiliy of a father as a Priest, Prophet, Pastor and Preacher" by Pastor Selva raj

I Samuel 2:27-32

" For I will honor those who honor me, but those who despise me will be cursed! "

Eli was the Judge, a spiritual man and a good leader and yet he failed as a father. He honoured his sons more than God and he did not put his sons in discipline.

Responsibilities of a father :

I) Priest of the family: Our ministry begins at home. If you cant build your home you cant build the church.(Pray for your wife and children)

Prayer: A priest is a person wo stands between God and people and take them to God through prayer. Without prayer, we cannot build a family.

Blessing: Priest has to bless people. (Bless your wife and children)

II) Prophet: A prophet is a person who brings God to people.
Fill yourself with the word of God and share the word of God with your children. This is the will of God. (Family prayer)

III) Pastor: All the fathers are pastors at home first. They have to take care of the family and provide for the family.

IV) Preacher: Father must give values to children (not just knowledge)
A father must lead an exemplary life.

GOD BLESS
