What position doe sth eWord of God hold in your LIFE?
7 For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God, but woman is the glory of man.
Men who you are; is meant to be, for the Glory of GOD!
Women you where created for the glory of Man.
I know this is not what many of you want to hear; but God has an order to things and he never asked for our input or our opinion!
When we fight against God’s order, we just create Chos!
In this context, theologians draw a distinction between who you are before God and how you reflect that relationship to the world.
God’s divine design is for men to exercise spiritual headship in the home and the local church body under the authority of Jesus Christ.
This headship does not mean that men are superior to women in the family or the church. Both Adam and Eve were created in God’s image.
However, they have different roles to fulfill and distinct places in God’s order.
18 Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.”
19 Now out of the ground the Lord God had formed every beast of the field and every bird of the heavens and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.
20 The man gave names to all livestock and to the birds of the heavens and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper fit for him.
21 So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh.
22 And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man.
23 Then the man said, “This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.”
24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
25 And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.
We are created for God and one another!
In biblical terms, "glory" often refers to weight, honor, and reflection. Since man was created first to reflect God's authority and rule, he is the "glory of God".
Similarly, because the woman was made from the man (Genesis 2) and designed to be his helper and partner, she reflects his honor and serves as his crown, making her the "glory of man"
Your life together is meant to be enjoyed while working hard.
God created a six day work week with a day of rest.
It takes very little effort to get things out of order.
4 An excellent wife is the crown of her husband, but she who brings shame is like rottenness in his bones.
Hebrews "a wife of virtue" a capable woman of noble character. She is contrasted with the woman who is disgraceful (מְבִישָׁה, mévishah; "one who causes shame") or who lowers his standing in the community.
Ladies, what crown does your husband wear that you have created for him?
What we need is an understanding into the divine purpose of marriage; where it can help couples realign their relationships with God's intentions, fostering deeper love, commitment, and spiritual growth amidst challenges.
Gen 2 is a picture of God’s Perfect Partnership
BONUS MATERIAL
Many of you will be surprised at what God desired the first year of marriage to be like.
5 “When a man is newly married, he shall not go out with the army or be liable for any other public duty. He shall be free at home one year to be happy with his wife whom he has taken.
The Divine order of things.
2 Now I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I delivered them to you.
3 But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife is her husband, and the head of Christ is God.
10 He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.)
11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers,
12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ,
13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,
14 so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes.
15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,
If you want Chos out of your marriage men submit yourself to God!
Men there should be a much greater level of submission from you to God; than you ever expect from your wife!
Ladies bring glory to your husband as much as you want him to bring glory to your God!
The divine order is not based on how your spouse does their assignment.
Men rather your wife is rottenness to your bones or a crown of Glory your assignment is to bring Glory to God!
Ladies regardless of how your husband brings glory to God; your assignment is to bring Glory to God by how you bring glory to your husband!
This is the Divine order of a marriage!
24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
Oneness is what God called us all to!
This is only done when we operate in agreement with God’s spiritual Laws.
31 So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
23 Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men,
24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
