The following is not a condemnation of men nor women. It is something God showed me that’s missing from our lives. We all are at our best when we do what God created us to do. Please pray about this and move into the position God created for you.
FOR THE LADIES:
Last night Father had me standing in proxy for women. He showed me being tormented and harassed by something. A man was there, who I knew to be my husband. But every time he tried to help me I would brush him off and tell him I didn’t need his help. The look of hurt, and the pain on his face from knowing I was in pain was unbearable. Yet I couldn’t help telling him no, don’t help me.
Ladies, please don’t take this the wrong way… We have taken something very precious from men. We have told them we don’t need them to do anything for us. We have shown them an “I got this!” attitude which has served to keep men at arms length spiritually, emotionally and sometimes physically. We have our reasons and excuses: “I was taught this”, “that’s just the
way it is”, “he doesn’t know what I need”, “only God needs to take care of me”. But this is not the way of life God means for us. We want a man that protects us, yet we won’t let him save us even if it means defending us from ourselves. We want a man that listens but we cut him off when he speaks. We want a man who will give us a house and then we dislike how he tries to make it a home. We want a priest in our household, but ridicule how he serves God. Please don’t take offense. Just take what God is trying to show you and meditate on it
FOR THE GENTLEMEN:
In the vision, I morphed from the plagued woman and stood as the husband looking at my wife. I felt her pain and torment and felt my pain as she pushed me away. Finally, at one point she asked me to pray for her. No matter how much she begged me as her husband to pray for her, I didn’t know how to pray. I knew I should but I just became more and more frustrated and angry. So I walked away in fear and pain.
Guys, it’s not enough for you to let your lady do all the praying for your household. You want a spiritually grounded woman but a lady needs a man spiritually bigger than her to cover her and your family. It’s not enough to have your personal devotional time.
You need to show a lady you have the ability to save her and your family in and through prayer. A lady needs to know you can slay demons and protect her even when she says she doesn’t need any help. I know you feel pain, hurt, disappointment and fear when she pushes you away yet God created you to push past emotion and stand up for what’s right. God’s asking you to make decisions. Hard decisions that will affect you and your entire family. When you do feel that hurt and fear, God needs you to stand and not walk away. Face the fear, push past a woman’s bravado and be the man God created you to be. Stop believing ladies when they say they don’t need you to survive. (And I don’t mean in a physical sense.) Yes she does. Yes we do. Please don’t take these words as mean or hurtful. Just think about it for a while.
God created man and woman to work together in unity and love. It is counterproductive for us to find reasons to push each other away. It’s one of satan’s greatest and oldest deceptions. he knows if he can keep people at odds with each other, beginning with the head, the man, then he can destabilize the entire family structure. Its time for us to build each other up, love one another and give each other a break.
FATHER GOD, THANK YOU FOR MAKING US IN YOUR IMAGE. HELP US TO REALIZE WE NEED EACH OTHER TO SURVIVE SPIRITUALLY, EMOTIONALLY AND PHYSICALLY. FORGIVE US FOR TEARING EACH OTHER DOWN AND FOR NOT STANDING IN THE MIDST OF FEAR, PAIN AND REJECTION. WE ASK THAT YOU GIVE US HOLY SPIRIT POWER TO LIVE ACCORDING TO YOUR WORD AND PURPOSE FOR OUR LIVES. TEACH US TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU AND EACH OTHER WITHOUT FEAR AND EMBARRASSMENT. TEACH US HOW TO DEPEND ON EACH OTHER AND SUBMIT TO EACH OTHER. THANK YOU FOR GIVING US THE COURAGE TO DO THINGS THE WAY YOU WANT THEM DONE. IN JESUS’ NAME.
