Models of Manhood: "Within every man there is a male: God created man”

Models of Manhood

Maponga Joshua iii

“Within every man there is a male: But God created man”

Let Us Make Man





Consultation: The divine plurality says “Let us Make man…” there are attributes in God that must be directly reflected in man, and today God is soliciting for your help in the business of making men.  Able to think alone, work alone and fulfill all in Himself, God consults. It is manly to do and not talk or ask for advice. To consult is not a weakness but power that includes others in the grand plan. You need to find the person of God in your life and emulate the divine persona in daily activities and decision making.

Perfection: ‘It was good’ seven times these words are repeated in the creation week. All men must learn to add the fine detail of perfection in all we do. Careless, reckless half done work and at home or work is not acceptable. Just so that we are all clear as man you do not need a woman to make up your bed or cook for you. Some of us have become so dependent on women like we were crippled from birth. Let me remind you that God made man” perfect, but lonely without woman. His character, physic, mental ability, and spiritual responsibility are an intention of God. The masculine gender can live without women

Company: The divine rescue plan is fulfilled at the submission of a woman who appears on the scene as a suitable helpmate, not replacing soul mate. It is ok man to do the Homework and seek for company in a helpmate. The supernatural creation was a present gift to man, so that the image of God mirrored in man would be mirrored in women and reflected in children. This divine life was build into the natural vessel. This union of male and female is a project supervised by God. When you enjoy company with the female gender your happiness is a decision created at a glorious level, in heaven; hence every woman is at her best when she ascends from the sight God, to the faith of man.  Ask the question, what is the intention of God with this woman? What is it that God through me must accomplish and what can I do to enhance that call. In co-operation with God what can ‘We’ do to fulfill the divine intention –?

Identity: “In His own image.” The society must guard jealously the full development of the masculine species to sustain the collapsing society.  There is no need to try and be like anybody else, you are you. The Genius of God is demonstrated in making you as a unique individual that you are. Carefully crafted and from birth, you were given the right parents, right color, education, all that you will need to make you – you is bundled in you. All things work together for good for them that love the Lord. Men must find their identity with God. You are in the image of the divine, that is what you stand for and you are made out of.  “After His likeness”. It is your duty to demonstrate the full Likeness of God: As God is so

Divine Emulation: Men are God’s partner in earthly creative processes. Man must be distinguished in these Models of Excellency:

a.   Being creative in the midst of chaos: the world was formless: look around you and see what chaos needs there is. Find out all the dark corners and LET THERE BE LIGHT. This is the world where your wife, children and tribe will live in, stop and create, turn chaos into cosmos.

b.   Being Proactive in lifeless situations: the earth is void and empty: stand up fill in the blanks progressively, light first, separate waters, plants, then birds etc. Be organized in the execution of your duties so that there is cohabitation, ecological coherence, dependence, interdependence and independence.

c.   Being imaginative, tolerant in management of diversity: in all variety, do not fuel intolerance but celebrate the blessings diversity. Remember they are the opposite sex and each human being is different from you. Within you the whole world is alive, and through you God can recreate the entire universe.

d.   Being inventive in the creation of weaker vessels: out of man God made women: You are raw material in the divine hands to do better things. It will bless your heart to see a masterpiece, a product from your side and your hands.

e.   Being positive in manual labor: to work and till the land: Get out of bed early and  to work, allow not your hands to be idle, you cannot  sit on their drags and eat the bread of laziness. Poverty will put you into rags and too much sleep will make you evil and envious.

f.    Being affirmative while occupying this divine position of supremacy: Hold the Bibles in your hands at the close of the day and conduct family worship. Take your position and grow to be responsible in fulfilling your priestly role within your home.

“Male and female created ye them” manhood divides itself into masculinity and femininity. The place of women comes as a need identified by God, the desirable missing link on the ‘let us make man’. There should be no conflict with yourself, for what you are. You are what women are not.

Chuckle/titter: A closer look at English grammar adds humor: There is a man inside every (WOMAN).  There is a he inside every (SHE). Maybe that is why we sing Hymns (hims) at church and not hers, and we say ‘Amen’ not ‘awoman.’ Let every man find the (missing S in his He) and he will find favor with God.

Time out: Rest is also a creative component of creation. Make time-out to gain lost strength. Holidays are not a waste of money but an investment into your mind, health and happiness. There is no time, but make that time. At times you do not rest because you are tired but because you are finished what you are doing. In these moments seek for divine company and family reunion. Don’t gloat in the marathon of busyness and nonstop intoxication with trivia.

Let Us Make Man: It is your duty to make men, to build others, develop and nurture other men. There is a need to mentor and grow the young men to have the character of man in the image of God. You are like God, make them in your likeness - male and female create ye them.

Man Make Man!
