THE WOMAN NO MAN WANTS TO LET GO
Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi
Prov. 18:22 “Whosoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favour of the Lord”
Marriage is God's plan for man designed to bring about a godly family . The Christian family is a microcosm of the family of God with the husband representing the heavenly Father and the wife ,Christ with the children as the body of believers. God places so much premium on the family because that's were nations are built. Stability in a nation starts with stable families which is as a result of a godly man being married to a godly woman.
A godly wife has the following attributes : the scriptures describes her as gracious and honorable (Prov. 11:16) she greets her elders ,this is usually the first thing you'll notice about a godly woman (Luke 1:41) she recognises the blessing in greeting.
She makes her husband proud ,. Proverbs 12:4 NLT says "A worthy wife is a crown for her husband, but a disgraceful woman is like cancer in his bones." she never diminishes his worth in the public domain and she commits herself to praying for his health and progress.
She is full of wisdom, knowledge and understanding (Prov. 19:14b) and depends on God for sustenance (Rom.1:17). She is kind ,the scriptures says in Proverbs 31:26 NLT "When she speaks, her words are wise, and she gives instructions with kindness." she's courteous and does not use vulgar language while speaking.
She is hard working and hates to be idle Proverbs 31:19 NLT says "Her hands are busy spinning thread, her fingers twisting fiber." She is also a philanthropist Proverbs 31:20 NLT says "She extends a helping hand to the poor and opens her arms to the needy" she is a shrewd businesswoman who refuses to be a financial liability to her husband Proverbs 31:16 NLT says "She goes to inspect a field and buys it; with her earnings she plants a vineyard.". She is a light to the ungodly, through her services the ungodly are attracted to the kingdom of God.
An ungodly wife is loud-mouthed and stubborn, never at home (Prov. 7:11) Idle, she has no time to study the scriptures, wandering from house to house,a busybody and a tattler , (1Timothy 5:13. )She invests more on her beauty than on godly virtues.Beauty cannot save a marriage from failing but a godly character can (Prov. 11;22, Prov. 31:30) therefore,more time and resources should be spent on developing a meek and quiet spirit than on fashion. Fashion is a creation from God designed to attract man to God and not the other way round (1Peter 3:3-5)
Some of the godly wife's duties include being a ready and exciting and enriching companion to her husband Prov. 31;11, Mal 2:14b she does so lovingly without complaints while pleasing her husband (Prov. 31:12 Titus. 2:4, 1 Cor.7:34b) and because of the loving relationship between them she has no problem submitting his authority because failure to do so leads to hindrance to prayers being answered Col. 3:18. ; ICor.11:3, 1Cor.11:8,9, Eph 5:33b, .
As you read this now receive grace for a fruitful and loving family relationship in Jesus name.
