*TOPIC: TAKE CARE OF YOUR HUSBAND*
*MEMORISE:*
*Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.*
Colossians 3:18
*READ: EPHESIANS 5:22-24 KJV*
[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.
*MESSAGE:*
In today's Bible reading, wives are instructed to submit to their own husbands in everything. Part of this submission entails helping them to fulfil their God-given assignment and taking care of their needs.
Wives are helpmeets (Genesis 2:18-22) and are required to cater to their husbands' spiritual, nutritional, and emotional needs. Wives can care for their husbands spiritually by always praying for them. A good wife should also cater to her husband's nutritional needs. It is not good for a man to be hungry and not be fed. Matthew 21:18-19 tells us that when Jesus was hungry, and He didn't find food on a fig tree, He cursed the tree. An African proverb says a hungry man is an angry man. If you don't feed your husband, you will always have an angry man at home.
Wives should also pay attention to their husbands' sexual and emotional needs. Surprisingly, some wives move from one prayer mountain to another in search of a divine intervention that will make their husbands love them more than ever before, yet they neglect their husbands' needs. If a woman honours her husband and sees to it that she caters to his spiritual, nutritional, and sexual needs, all other things being equal, she will not need to be jumping from one prayer mountain to the other to seek his love. When a husband's needs are well catered to by his wife, all other things being equal, he will love and bless her from the bottom of his heart (Proverbs 31:2
