TOPIC: WIVES, BE OBEDIENT TO YOUR HUSBAND
AUGUST Friday 24th
TEXT: Ephesians 5:20-24
KEY VERSE: Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Colossians 3: 18
In every institution there is a leader. We have the president, governor, manager and so on. In marriage there, is also a leader. Your husband is unique among all leaders because you have an almost exclusive possession of him. Your goal as a wife should be to please your husband and to have a peaceful home where there is love, peace and harmony. A house divided against itself cannot stand. Husbands are of different calling and vocation such as pastors, politicians, artisans, civil servants etc. Husbands are also of differ characters. Some are worldly, some are simple, some get angry easily. Submit to your husband as a duty in the spirit of love and inasmuch as it does not conflict with God’s command.
1 John 4:7-11, “Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.”
If you claim to love God, it should manifest in your love to those around you and this includes your husband, no matter his disposition toward you. Some husbands are very simple and unassuming such that their wives want to take advantage of them. This should not be so. Some husbands are irritable and soon get angry. You can pray for him and you need to be more patient and tolerant in dealing with him. Some are abiding while some are hardly at home. Check yourself if your husband is not abiding, you may be contributory to his not wanting to stay at home with you. Do all in your power and according to the grace God has given you to manage your husband well in order to have a peaceful home and not to create offence that could affect your heavenly calling.
Thought for the day: Disrespect to your husband is disrespect to God
Song for the day: Spirit of the living God, fall afresh on me(2x) break me, melt me, mould me..
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 120-123; 1 Corinthians 6
