The man is created to receives divine guidance from God not only for himself but for others. and in our case for his family. He is a PROPHET!!. its through him that God gave instructions from the beginning. he represents God and its through him that God instructs his people. the family.
But rarely do we -men(fathers)- leads our families to give thanks even for the food? how many times do we lead devotions in our families, do we share the WORD? we've left it to our wives if at all it happens.. but who will teach our wives? our kids? we are the leaders in this..
What God expects of us.
Gen 2:15 Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.
Gen 2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;
note# God commanded the man!
Gen 2:17 "but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die."
Gen 2:18 And the LORD God said, "It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him."
Gen 2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.
Gen 2:22 Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.
from vs 15-18 when the man is receiving instructions about the tree of knowledge he is alone..
until vs 21 when God made a woman for him.
it was the mans responsibility to teach the woman God's WORD. take her around the garden passing to her knowledge entrusted to him by God.
We are not different, we are to teach our Wives and children the WORD. its us who've received the divine instructions from God. We are Prophets in our family.
Before you ask her hand for marriage, you got to seek the knowledge of God. have a vision, she comes as a helper,
give her directions..
she should find you busy..
Men
lets get back to our original position.
