She is Powerful

Ephesians 5: 22-33: When God told woman to submit to her man and the man to love his woman, He was indirectly tell the man, look this woman has power and its only with (in) love will she submit the power. You can only tell someone who has power to submit it. The woman has something and that is why God told her to submit it to her man. You can only submit what you have; you cannot submit what you don’t have. God is saying use love not intimidation (am the head so therefore… or I married you so therefore..) or manipulation (if I give her this.. or buy her this.. or if I tell her this..) to get her to submit what God gave her. She may submit under these circumstance but its only for a while. God who gave the woman the power is telling the man, the only genuine way to get the woman to submit her God given power is through love. When God told her to submit, it is not because the woman is weak, but because she is powerful. God knows what he was talking about when he set this law in motion. Men always seem to be smart, there is no issue if you are smarter than your wife but you can’t be too smart for God.

A lot of men have fallen because of women. Ask Adam- The first man, Ask king David- the man after Gods heart, Ask his son Solomon- the richest man ever in bible days, Ask Samson- the most powerful man in bible days, Ask O.J Sampson- One of America’s sport heroes, Ask Bill Clinton- former president of America, Ask Abacha- former president of Nigeria, Ask Dominique Staruss- Kahns- IMF former chief, Ask Oscar Pistorus- The blade runner. Learn from others.

I am not saying this so that the woman's head will swell- of course in marriage her husband is her head, am only writing this for the man to understand the wisdom of God behind the scripture mentioned above and also to avoid this pitfall. It is dishearten for a young man who have toiled all his life to become a man and at the peak of his carrier or peak of his life or when he is about to enjoy his life to fall because of a woman. Wisdom is a defense.
