We know this is how to have a perfect relationship with God, and God tells us how to have a perfect relationship with our husband or wife. With a good parental team the chances for our children are also greatly increased. The society we live in, what Jesus calls the “world” has twisted and perverted the ways of God in many ways. Don’t forget our true enemy. He deceives even the smartest and wisest of man. God’s way in the home is really the same dance as the one we should all have with God. The hardest part is getting a man to surrender and submit to anything. Well, if you’re a hardheaded man like me anyway. It’s not so hard when you’re submitting to the creator of the universe though. I think He knows a whole lot more than I do. He never makes mistakes and He does everything perfectly, even though we usually don’t understand what He’s doing or why. We just have to trust that in His infinite wisdom, He knows best. It may be harder for women to submit to God’s will, on this particular subject, in Western societies. He’s not telling women to do what the world is giving them so many rewards for! The world teaches to be a strong woman; to be independent and be the leader of the home. This has been forced on many women when the man has left them to raise their children on their own. Women’s lib has also brought massive change to western society in the last century. You don’t even hear about women’s lib any more because it’s just par for the course now. God’s way is different though. With God’s way, a woman wouldn’t be left to raise her children on her own, but before anyone starts pointing a finger lets be sure we understand that both the man and the woman need to submit to Gods will in order for it to work the way God intended it to. With God’s way, a man should love his wife as Christ loves the church, and as he loves himself and his own body. He should take care of her like he cares for his own body. He should cherish her and lift her up in adoration. With God’s way, a wife should submit herself in every thing to her husband, honoring, loving, and respecting him in all things. With God’s way, a man should submit himself in every thing to God.
