A woman wants a man to know who he is,know where he is going and to know how he is going to get there. she wants a man with confidence in himself in her and their relationships. she wants him to lead her and her children with kindness and understanding,she wants him to be firm,yet gentle. she wants him to consult the lord and her before any major decision is made in sure that he makes the right decision at all times.
The question for our wife/woman is not who can find him?but how can l as his wife help him to become this leader.We should know that only our lord Jesus Christ is the only master potter can mold each of us into design he want and make every lid fit perfectly with everypot. To have a perfect fit we(husband and wife) must let him work his plan.
The question again is that can we allow him work is power in us.Do we erect barriers that prevent his plan from transforming our marriage relationships into God design. our quest for power often causes power struggles in our marriages.
We should understand that we has a couple can only operate/perform in this beautiful God plan for our marriage if we can do this two important acts recognise by God
1-Leadership/love(man)
2-Submission(woman)
LEADERSHIP/LOVE.
Man, the bible say you should love your wife as the lord christ love the church. The lord Jesus christ is the head of the church and also he love the church as himself. In order to be a leader,you must have someone to lead.A woman want her husband to lead;however we must remember that it is our responsibility to submit to his leadership.
SUBMISSION.
Submission is one of the most difficult actions you will ever undertake as a christian woman. It is a difficult task if not done under God empowerment.
True submission occurs when you follow your spiritual authority lead even when every fiber in you feel its the wrong path to take.
Five things that will help the wife in submitting.
1-Respect him-show honor and reverence to him in your home and to his friends and family.
2-Acknowledge his calling as the high priest of the home.
3-Praise/Bless him. Men needs praise just as often as women needs it.Also let us try to bless our husband everyday before he leaves our home.The power of the blessing provides a blanket of protection and favour.
4-Listen to him. Do not be the mouth of the body when God is calling you to be the ear and heart of the body.
5-Be his helpmate.Do not complete with your husband, learn to complement him.
In conclusion we should come to our senses and realise that perfection is attained in the world to come not in this life. ln this world we must walk by the law of God word and by the grace of his cross.
