TOPIC: OBEDIENCE AND SUBMISSION OF THE WIFE IN MARRIAGE (PART 2)
TEXT: EPHESIANS 5:22-24
22. Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and He is the saviour of the body.
24. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
KEY VERSE: EPHESIANS 5:23-For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
See your husband as the church sees Christ in submission, obedience and love: The husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the Church. Nobody competes with Christ in authority. None will ever lift their head as though they are Christ in the Church. None will ever take the position of Christ. Woman, let your husband lead. Do not speak ill of your husband to your children. See your husband as the Church sees Christ in submission and obedience. Respect, submit to, honour and do not speak back at him. Please do not be rude to him.
See your husband as a saviour, sustainer and provider of the family: Do we not call on the name of the Lord every time we are in need? See your husband in the same light. Do not live a life of independence. See your husband as the Church sees Christ. Do not belittle your husband by not seeking his counsel or instruction.
It is unrighteous not to listen to his contributions but do whatever you desire. When you despise your husband, it is proof you do not submit to him. When you submit to your husband and ask for help when you need it, even financial assistance, he will willingly give you. Be happy to trust and honour him and expect him to do his role as your husband, even if he does not have to give.
Your husband is the Provider: All you do should be under his instruction. Let your conduct prove that you recognize him as the head of the house. Your husband is the boss of your home. Why do you do things without his permission?
Submit in all things: A dying man told his only son, "I have achieved much in life: buildings, businesses, cars, a manager and many servants. But you will only take one thing. What will you take?" Knowing that the father owns even the manager, he took the manager." God has put your personal wealth and resources under your husband.
Thought for the day: Submit to your husband in all things except where there is sin.
Song for the day: I surrender, I surrender all (2X) all to Thee my blessed Saviour…
Bible reading for the day: Proverbs 8-11
