“See now, the Lord, the Lord Almighty, is about to take from Jerusalem and Judah both supply and support: all supplies of food and all supplies of water, the hero and the warrior, the judge and the prophet, the diviner and the elder, the captain of fifty and the man of rank, the counselor, skilled craftsman and clever enchanter. “I will make mere youths their officials; children will rule over them.”” Isaiah 3:1-4 NIV https://bible.com/bible/111/isa.3.1-4.NIV

One of the curses of the Lord upon a people that rebel against Him is the removal of real men from their midst. Men were created by God to lead. In Genesis 2-3, we see Adam as the leader of the world under God, with Eve as his helper. The curse of Adam includes his role as leader of his wife and provider of his home, both responsibilities men are to assume and, when accepted, bring health to a nation because it brings health to a family, which is the core of the Church and the nation. Biblical Manhood is under severe attack and has been for many years now. This attack is part of the rebellion against God’s ways this nation has been coddling for more than fifty years, the effects of which we are suffering today. Men are to lead, provide, and protect themselves and their families toward obedience to God as He commanded in His word. The word of God is the true source of the definition of manhood. If we would be a strong family, a strong Church, and a strong nation, that is one whole and healthy from a godly definition, men must return to reading God’s word. applying it to their lives, and teaching their families. Biblical Manhood is a critical component of a healthy nation that demonstrates God’s blessing upon our land or His curse when lacking. Part of our repentance before God and acceptance of Jesus as our Lord must be to return to living God’s ways, and for men, that means taking responsibility for themselves and their families to walk in God’s ways.
