THE REVELATION OF LORDSHIP IN THE MARRIAGE INSTITUTION (2)

Bible reading

Psalm 45:11; 1 Corinthians 11:1-16; Ephesians 5:22-25

But I want you to know that the Head of every man is Christ, and the head of a woman is man, and the Head of Christ is God.
1 Corinthians 11:3 (NKJV)

From our previous study, we have established the Truth of God's Word being the One and Only Standard by which the Family Institution is judged. The modern satanic teaching that man and woman are equal with identical roles in the family which the spirit of Jezebel introduced into the Church through the feminist movement is straight from the pit of hell (Rev. 2:20-21). We need to understand that the lordship of a man does not in any way make him superior to the woman. However, for the sake of Order and Leadership, God established the former in a position of Authority over the latter (1 Cor. 11:12). It doesn't matter whether the woman is more exposed, richer, taller or even in certain rare cases physically stronger. She has a Sacred Responsibility to be subject to her own husband because of the Angels (1 Cor. 11:10).

In order for the man to succeed as the head of the Family, he must of necessity become subject to his own Head: Christ Jesus Himself (1 Cor. 11:3). He must never abuse his Authority over the woman by becoming oppressive but instead handle her delicately. Failure to do the latter guarantees that his Prayers to God would be hindered (1 Pet. 3:7). From day one, the devil has always fought and sought to distort the Institution of Marriage and the Family in more ways than one. He has deceived many and sold to them a twisted and perverted version of Marriage and families. For example, we find that in many countries in the Western Hemisphere, women become the head of the family, two mothers have a lesbian marriage, two fathers have a homosexual marriage and all sorts. The Church of Christ has a Divine Duty to arise and resist the evil agenda of the enemy against this Sacred institution called Marriage.

Prayer

Let us pray.

Heavenly Father, we magnify You today for Your Mercy towards us. O Lord, we acknowledge Your Lordship over us and ask You to grant us a Deep Revelation of the man's lordship in the Christian home in Jesus' Mighty Name. Amen.
