The Submissive Wife

Hi, I am doing the same thing. My husband goes to church, but hasn't accepted the Lord Jesus, I know this because of the way he treats me and God. Because of this, my grown children are having problems. I pray for them all consistantly and try to be as loving to my husband as I can. Of course, I can always do better. I pray the scriptures over them all.

I am in the same situation Trebia. I am married with (3) adult children. None of my children are leading a Godly lifestyle. My husband and son smoke marijuana daily. To be honest, I use to smoke marijuana myself. I put them all in God's hands. I love all of them. The Word says " cast all your worries and anxiety on the Lord and he will give you rest". That is exactly what I did. It was hard in the beginning but I held tight to the Lord's hand. As an Intercessor, I stand in the gap til they ALL come to there senses. Hold them up in prayer daily. Pray the Hedge of Protection around them. Ask God to deliver them and watch what He does. Read the book of Ephesians. It is an incredible book. Stay Blessed and strong, God WILL see you through this.

Obedience to God ALWAYS comes first. Obey the LORD and everything will fall into place. Do not let the enemy take away the joy that the Lord has given you. It's like knowing right from wrong. If your husband asks you to do something that you know is wrong, all you have to say to him is "God does not want me to do that". God is always with you. Turn to the Lord and watch the miracles that HE will perform.

I am really conflicted about being a submissive wife. My husband believes in God, but I don't believe that he lways tries to do what is right. God wants me to be submissive to my husband, but he also wants me to follow his law and do what is right. So what do I do if my husband asks me to do something that God says is wrong. Do I obey God or my husband? Either way I am not really obeying God. Does anyone have any insight on this? Is there any scripture that refers to this? I sooo want to obey God, but in this situation I really don't know how.

I love the word of God. It is the only recipe to make maaariege work and succeed. The bible says the husband aught to love his wife, BUT for the wife, you are to respect and honour your husband. I love that

God really works in mysterious ways, following Eph 5:22 has given me so much strength and faith, contrary to the usual connotation of "submissive". Now I know my place

Since I have followed this scripture, I am more happy. I am doing for Christ. It works.
