Leaders In The Home
By: Robert A.Searles
Christian husbands, you ought to assume full leadership of your home.
All decisions should finally rest upon you as the head of your household
as God has ordained it, and you ought to pray that God will give you
wisdom in making those decisions, because you will be held responsible
to God for what becomes of your wife and family spiritually as well as
physically. You ought to love your wife even as Christ loved the church
and gave himself for it.
As the church is the body of Christ on earth, so your wife is part of
yourself. When she hurts, you ought to hurt. Her concerns ought to be
your concerns. Her spiritual and physical welfare ought to be your
chief concern next to loving and serving God.
The one who walks beside you as your life companion; the one who sits
at your table; the one who makes your home comfortable and cheerful for
you; the one who sleeps in your bed,, raises your children, and nurses
you when you are sick is a precious gift from God your Father and ought
to be honored and treasured as such.
“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands as unto the Lord. For
the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the
church; and he is the savior of the body. Therefore as the church is
subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every
thing. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church,
and gave himself for it; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the
washing of water by the word, that he might present it to himself a
glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing, but
that it should be holy and without blemish. So. ought men to love their
wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For
no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it,
even as the Lord the church. For we are members of his body, of his
flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father
and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be
one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and
the church. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love
his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her
husband.” Ephesians 5: 2
