TOPIC: THE SUBMISSION OF WIFE’S RESOURCES TO HER HUSBAND.       December Monday 23rd
TEXT: Ephesians 5: 22-24
KEY VERSE: Genesis 2: 24 “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.”
Submission means the act of submitting or yielding to the power or authority of another; obedience, or the spirit of subjection. A lot has been said in the previous section about the wife’s obedience to the husband. Here we are going to talk about the wife submitting her resources to her husband. In many marriages the husband and the wife own their property differently even among Christian couples. And in some cases the wives even struggle to control the family property. This is not biblical and as in every case, anything not done in the will of God results in afflictions and conflicts. The submission of the wife’s resources follows the pattern which God has already set for marriage.
The husband and the wife, the scripture says, are one. Is it their resources that should not be one? “Wives submit yourselves…” Eph.5:22, if you submit yourself, is your property not part of yourself? The wife controlling her property is against the law of God because the husband is the head of the wife and the head is the one controlling the natural body. The wife saying “my car, my money, my house, mine, mine, mine, is an act of rebellion/disobedience and will attract divine judgment.
If God has made them one from the beginning, why are their resources not one? Gen.3:16 tells the wife, “…thy desire shall be to thy husband and he shall rule over thee”. Then the matter is finished, wife. Any action contrary to this word of God is sin. And sin will take to hell fire. Areas of Submission- include – your money, every other property and your body. How this is done must be in total agreement and cordiality with the husband. Anyway it is done without the husband’s total consent is not divinely acceptable and it is sin. 1Cor. 7:4 says, “The wife hath no power of her own body, but the husband…”. Refusal of your body to your husband in sex is sin.
Thought for the day: If God has made them one from the beginning, why are their resources not one?
Song for the day: Bind us together Lord....
Bible reading for the day:
Habakkuk; Revelation 14

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
