Marriages

SP shared a sober message about Husbands needing to take the lead and responsibility in the home last evening at the Sanctification Weekend meeting ... Husbands must affirm and love her in order to invoke the beauty of his wife as said in Eph 5:23.

The Lord has been speaking much to me in my times of devotion about marriages and what we need to teach our ladies that should be responses to submitting to our husbands.

Leaving the 'man' part of deal to them, I would like to share what the Lord has been speaking to me about how the women should respond and react. As wives, the Lord told me that wives need to make their man feel needed. They are our "heroes" and we need to make them feel assured and secure that they belong. Ladies need to assure their man that they want their covering, protection, leadership, assurance and love. Our women must also learn to submit themselves to being encouraging and affirming their husbands not just with their words but also with actions. They must learn to satisfy their husbands as unto the Lord.

It seems queer for me to share this thought being a single, but I believe the Word of God has much to teach us about these areas because He is committed to building strong families in our churches as well as nation. God is allowing us a glimpse of His heart and His intentions for His dear children as we disciple them to have a heart after God's own.
