Women have great abilities in influencing their world. They have the power to influence their homes and most especially their husbands positively.
In genesis 2:18, God said " It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make an help meet for him". With this, the woman can either through her influence, help raise a man or bring him down. She is either a stepping stone to the man's greatness or a tool for his downfall.
God created the woman to play a very pivotal role in the life of her husband. Both working wives and full time housewives play the help meet role in one way or the other. If the husband is the head of the house, where does the head rely on? Of cos the head relies on the neck and that's the beautiful role of the wife as the neck.
The head has the eyes and the neck only turns the head to the direction of the eyes and this means submission. In the spirit of willing submission, comes influence. Yes! The woman can turn the neck to any direction but she can only do that to the direction of the eyes. Without the eyes the neck moves to the direction of a downfall in darkness and that's where a woman fails to play the role God designed her to play in her man's life which is submission.
On a second look at the relationship between the head and the neck, the woman's influence to the man's success is achieved when she is willing to support his vision. Through her neck, she shows interest in the things that concern the man.
How true the common saying, " behind every successful man, is a woman." is I can't say, depending on the context one is looking at it but in this context I wanna say it's true. There are men who would testify of the impact and influence of their wives to what they are today. The woman doesn't just take care of the home front but always on her knees praying for the success of her man in all he lays his hands to do. When his faith is weak concerning a project or business, her faith stands strong for him. She picks every rejection stone thrown at him and builds a solid foundation for his success. She strongly believes her husband will succeed in what ever he lays his hand to do despite the negative notions of other people.
A good wife would always leave an imprint in the heart of her man as he leaves for work everyday making him wanna come back home straight from work to his wife who isn't just facially beautiful but beautiful at heart.
The Bible describes a woman who helps to build her home as wise and the one who destroys it as foolish. Proverbs 14:1. This scripture gives us a picture of two opposite women who exist in our contemporary world.
The wise woman, through prayers and seeking God's will concerning her role as a wife builds her home. She is knowledgeable of what submission to her husband is. She is good at home making/keeping, child rearing, communication with her husband, relatives and in-laws. She keeps her spiritual house as well as her physical house clean. She understands what sacrifice and compromise is for the well being of her home and she understands how to enhance her life and the lives of those around her ( her husband inclusive).
The foolish woman on the other hand, seeks self - will. She is more concerned about herself than those around her. She neglects being close to God and neglects the home front as well. She lacks discretion in doing things. She nags her husband privately and publicly causing him shame. She is always contentious, hardly is there peace at home.
The Bible in Proverbs 21:19 says " Better to dwell in the wilderness than with a contentious and angry woman."
The foolish woman compares her home to that of her friends and expects same thing in her home putting pressure on her husband.
The foolish woman keeps too many friends and in most cases who are mostly concerned about material things than the well being of their husbands and children.
Of recent, I came across a post on a friend's timeline about a woman who failed to cook for her husband and kids but went out to celebrate her birthday with friends. She got home realising the husband had already cooked for himself and the kids and wanted to eat but the husband refused. She picked a bottle to hit the husband for refusing her to eat but the husband took the bottle from her and stabbed her thighs resulting to her death.
If only she had taken care of her home before going out to celebrate with friends or even celebrated her birthday with her family, none of this would have happened. No justifying the husband's actions but as women, let's place our priorities right.
A man tends to be more prosperous and successful depending on the kind and type of woman he has at home. A good woman strives to be part of her man's life ( his interests, passion, businesses etc). She strives to be an asset in his life and not a liability. She makes sure the home is always peaceful and filled with laughter.
Rather than comparing her husband to other men, she is thankful and grateful to God for the man in her life and being loved by him. She is grateful for the kids she has with him. She is good at managing what ever the husband puts in her hands especially finances. The man knows he is richer as a result of the wife he has at home. To him, his wife is worth more than all the precious stones in the world.
A good woman knows her husband cherishes his peace of mind more than anything else. With this, no matter the amount of pressure and challenges at work, he sure knows he will find peace at home only in the arms of his wife.
She is like the Proverbs 31 woman the Bible describes as virtuous and whose husband's heart trusts in her as she enriches his life ( Proverbs 31:11).
Every woman today needs to understand her God - given influence and use it wisely and positively to effect a desired and loving change in her home. With this, godly children will also be raised.
Quote for the day - Through Wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches." Proverbs 24:3-4
