If You Are A Christian Wife, Your Husband Is Your Ministry

Genesis 2:18, “And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.”

God's will for nearly every woman is to get married, bear children, guide the house and not cause trouble. 1st Timothy 5:14-15, “I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully. For some are already turned aside after Satan.” All of these foolish career women today are turned aside after Satan. Many career women are having fewer children due to factors like prioritizing education and work, financial concerns, and the challenges of balancing career progression with motherhood. It is wickedness!

Career Women Are The Most Miserable Group

This ungodly feminist trend reflects a broader societal shift in the U.S. Europe and Australia where women are increasingly delaying family formation or choosing to remain childless. In fact, according to Psychology Today the most miserable group in America are middle-aged career women. In its Office Pulse survey, Captivate Network, a media solutions company, says it uncovered “profiles of the happiest and unhappiest workers.” Here is the profile of the unhappiest person:
  • Female
  • 42 years old
  • Unmarried (and no children)
  • Household income under $100,000
  • In a professional position (doctor, lawyer, et cetera)
Those ungodly career woman have all turned aside after Satan, and they are suffering for it. All of Satan's apples have worms. Genesis 2:18, “And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.”

Your Ministry Is Being A “Help Meet To Your Man

Dear reader, God created a woman to serve as a “HELP MEET to her own lawfully wedded husband. The Hebrew word for help is ezer which means to aid, to give help or assistance; be of service. God didn't make you dear lady you to raise children, although that is part of your job as a mother. God didn't create you to go to the shopping mall with your friends on weekends, but that is okay if your husband approves. God didn't create you to pursue your own selfish (or unselfish) ambitions, hobbies and interests; but again these things are okay with your husband's permission.

You Do Need Your Husband's Permission

Dear woman, perhaps you defiantly say, “I don't need my husband's permission!” If that is you, then you are not right with God. You have a wicked unbiblical mindset toward your marriage and your husband. Ephesians 5:22, “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.” God expects every wife to submit (obey) her husband as if he were Jesus Christ Himself. How many American women follow this biblical teaching? Not many I can tell you. If you have regard for God's Word, then you DO need your husband's permission to make any decision that will affect the marriage, finances, children or your home. Like it or not, God has ordained that the man of the home be in charge!

And if you are now thinking, “Well what about my husband?” If that is you, shame on you ma'am for looking for excuses, like did Eve in the Garden of Eden, to justify your rebellious spirit. When it comes to authority in the marriage and home, it is not a 50/50 arrangement. Your husband is 100% in charge, and if you have a problem with that, you shouldn't have been married. And it matters not whether you agreed to obey your husband in the marriage vows or not, God commands every wife to obey her own husband as unto the LORD.

Rebellion Is No Different Than Witchcraft

Dear reader, ladies, your husband is your only ministry. One day your children will grow up and move out, but will you still have your husband? Of all your daily duties, cares, obligations and responsibilities, being of service to your man is your primary job. God hates stubbornness and rebellion. HE HATES IT! 1st Samuel 15:23, “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.” Are you on par with a witch ladies? Whether you worship Satan, or mouth off to your husband in defiance against his will, there is no difference in God's sight! You might as well bow down and worship Baal when you sass your man, showing him disrespect and contempt. God hates wifely rebellion!

Nowhere does the inspired Scripture say for a wife to obey a good husband, it says to submit to your husband as unto the LORD. Nowhere does the inspired Scripture say for a wife to obey a faithful husband, it says to submit to your husband as unto the LORD. Nowhere does the inspired Scripture say for a wife to obey a fair husband, it says to submit to your husband as unto the LORD. Nowhere does the inspired Scripture say for a wife to obey a godly husband, it says to submit to your husband as unto the LORD.

Does Your Husband Curse The Day He Married You?

Proverbs 12:4, “A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.” Do you adversely affect your husband's wellbeing due to your bad attitude and rebellion? Are you the rot in his bones? Proverbs 31:28, “Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.” Does your husband call you blessed ma'am with words of praise, or does he say “God damn my wife!” for the chaos and grief you cause him? What kind of wife are you? God is watching.

What will your husband say about you when you are judged by God in eternity? Hebrews 13:17, “Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.” Someday God is going to ask your husband what he thinks about your behavior as a wife. What will your husband tell God? Woe unto the ungodly rebellious wife! Woe unto you woman, whosever you may be, if you make your husband's life miserable! You will someday reap with regret what you are now sowing.

Are You A Help Meet Or A Hindrance?

While your husband was faithfully working day and night on his ministry for Christ, where were you? Were you faithfully by his side helping him, as his soulmate; or were you continually running to women's shelters to escape your duties, responsibility and life's challenges? Were you cooking him a decent meal every day, or were you surfing social media on your stupid phone half the day? Did you bother to do his dirty laundry without being asked, or did it pile up? Did you show the slightest interest in his ministry work, or selfishly do your own thing?

And what about the refrigerator? Does your husband become frustrated that purchased food sat so long in the refrigerator that it rotted and now needs to be thrown away, because you were too lazy as a wife to be diligent? Does your husband have to scold you for leaving your shoes and clothes on the dining room floor? I know I'm talking to some lazy wives. Hey, if the shoe fits, wear it! You need to hear what I am saying.

God gave your husband an important ministry as his life's work, and the LORD made you to assist him any way possible to make his life easier, less stressful, happier and productive for the Lord Jesus Christ. That is your primary purpose for existence as a woman! When you cause your husband grief by your shameful rebellious behavior, big sassy mouth, angry mood swings, psychotic episodes, blaming him for your failures, and causing him problems, you have now become a hindrance to his ministry. You are effectively his worst enemy, keeping him for serving God. And you listen to me you spoiled little brat, God will deal with you harshly!

Go Hates Divorce

Women file for divorce in America three times more often than men do. The reason why is simply because they can. No-Fault Divorce began in atheist communist Soviet Union in 1918. It spread to other nations and came to the United States in 1969 in California. Today all 50 states in the U.S. allow some form of no-fault divorce, although the specifics vary by state. Some states are considered "true" no-fault states, such as Florida, meaning that neither party needs to prove wrongdoing to obtain a divorce; they simply need to state that the marriage is irretrievably broken. This approach simplifies the divorce process and avoids assigning blame. The truth is BOTH the husband and wife are to blame!

I heard my favorite preacher Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) say that in over 50 years of ministry as a pastor, that he has never once recommend for anyone to get a divorce; but he also said that he has jumped up and down a few times with rejoicing when there was a divorce. Some people are just Losers! Some women are serpent seeds. Some women don't deserve a good husband, and vise versa. A marriage is two people never giving up one each other. A marriage is two people making a life for each other.

King Solomon said that Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom” (Proverbs 13:10). Jesus said in Matthew 19:8b, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. God hates divorce! 

That being said, although I would never recommend a divorce either, I will never condemn anyone who files for divorce from a spouse who is impossible to coexist with. It is easy to judge from a distance! Dear reader, you nor I can fairly condemn anyone who seeks a divorce when we simply do not know what they are dealing with and suffering through. There are things worse than death and divorce! I'd 10,000 times rather see a man divorce his wife than to spend the rest of his life in prison for murder.

Please do not misunderstand what I am saying, I do NOT approve of divorce, ever, but sometimes I think it is a blessing when it happens. Some couples are like gas and fire. God knows your heart dear friend, whether you are looking for a way to blame your spouse to quit your marriage, or if you sincerely want to make it work out (Hebrews 4:13).

I worked with a black man years ago in Chicago, who told me that he was mowing the grass on a hot summer day. He kindly asked his wife for a glass of water and she snapped back, “Get it yourself!” Woe unto that rebellious wife! God hates rebellion. My co-worker told me that his wife would deliberately provoke him to anger with her sassy big mouth and sharp words, hoping that he would snap and physically assault her, so that she could file for divorce and automatically win custody of the kids, alimony (“all the money as Robin Williams called it), et cetera. You cannot hide your true intentions from God. Proverbs 24:12, If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works? Judgment Day is coming for every human being (Hebrews 9:27; Romans 14:10-12). The $64,000 question is do you fear God?

Here is a helpful sermon excerpt from my ministry friend Pastor Steven Anderson's sermon 'Jeremiah 3.' In this excerpt he explains that Jesus' teachings on marriage and divorce caused His disciples to choke on His words. That is, they had a difficult time processing what He was saying. Still today 2,000 years later people choke on this hotly debated topic of marriage, divorce and remarriage. Jesus concluded by saying in Matthew 19:11b, “All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.

I will close by reiterating the main truth I am trying to convey to Christian women in this blog, which is that your whole purpose for existence, for which God made you, is to please God by helping your husband as he serves God in his ministry. Thank you for showing grace by hearing me out in this unpopular subject. To God alone by all the credit, praise and glory.

Proverbs 31:28, “Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.”
