Day 8
Muslim men have the reputation of being violent and aggressive. They are seen as the terrorists of the modern age. The truth is, however, that the average Muslim man is just an ordinary guy.
His main responsibility is to take care of his family, which may include a second wife, third wife, and even a fourth wife. Most of his life happens outside the home; going to work, meeting men for coffee and praying at the mosque.
Muslim men are the leaders in the home and community. Even the spiritual tenor of the home is dependent on them. It is the woman’s duty to respect and obey her men.
Much about the role of Muslim men reflects Adam in the Book of Genesis. Unfortunately, today God's image in them has become tainted by sin and they do not know how to be reconciled to Him so that they can walk life as He intended.
Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness...” Gen 1:26
Prayer Request
Pray for Muslim men, that they will have the courage to follow Jesus and lead their families and communities to follow Jesus as well.
