If a man can’t keep his wife and his children under control, he can not control the Church – Pastor Kumuyi

According to Pastor Kumuyi, if a man is unable to maintain control over his wife and children, he will struggle to have control over the Church.

Pastor W.F. Kumuyi, who is the General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, has given some advice to pastors and ministers of God. He suggests that they should focus on getting their own lives in order before taking on leadership roles in a church. He shared this message while giving a sermon called “Our Call And Commission To Serve The Lord.”

During a recent Leadership Development Service, he expressed the viewpoint that if a person is unable to maintain harmony within their own family, they may struggle to effectively lead and manage a larger community like a church. People who have experience in the grace of God and leading the church of God to spiritual experiences are the ones who are capable, not just novices. People who are steadfast and have stamina are the ones who make good leaders in the church, not someone who is inexperienced.

Speaking Further he said, “Character comes before charisma. The behaviour comes before ability. You cannot just say you’re a leader and you remove someone because he’s not good, and you yourself you’re not good, you’re careless and you’re indisciplined, and you’re not behaving as a real Pastor and as a real minister ought to behave, in the language of your mouth and in the action of your life.”

He also stressed that if you want to become a leader, it’s important to avoid drinking too much and not be driven by greed. On the other hand, it would be beneficial if they displayed traits such as patience and endurance. Furthermore, it is important for their household to have a sense of calmness, unity, and orderliness. The family should have a lot of respect for the leader because of their dedication, unwavering commitment, stability, and morally upright lifestyle.

Concluding his statement, he said, “God will help us to maintain the standard every time, whatever other denominations and churches are doing IN Jesus’ Name.”
