I know a lot of marriages & relationships that would do better if the man in the relationship learns SUBMISSION. Yes! Submission to his wife and ultimately to God. Let me put this in proper context:

Alot of people especially here in Africa can attest to moments or decisions in their homes that cost the family so much. Problems that would been avoided if daddy listened to mummy but daddy failed to because daddy 'is the man of the house' and wanted to exact that power.

Submission is allowing someone have power over you even though you are powerful. It's not a sign of weakness in marriage but an avenue for progress.God made women to bring great value in this world as men too.

If you do not allow that value flow in your household, you will lose a great deal.
A man submitted to his spouse is one who is loyal to her, honours her as God's gift to him, listens to her, wants the best for her and puts her above others except his maker.

He sees her as a partner and support system, because that's how God designed it to be.
Alot of vices that break relationships are a product of the work of the flesh, e.g lying, cheating, malice, pride and the list goes on.

A man who is submitted to God doesn't find these vices attractive and hence would avoid them not because of love alone but because of His submission to God.
Love is great but it takes the Spirit of God to tame the flesh, the works of the flesh and not love alone.
6/8

In times when love is tested, submission to God will save the relationship or marriage. I must say here that men and women are to submit to THEIR SPOUSES not to other men or women.

This is one among many ways a good marriage can be built in this day and age. A man who is submitted to his spouse and God is on a golden plan to a prosperous home.

Thanks for reading through
And May your home be among the best
