Proverbs 14:1 “ Every wise woman buildeth her house : but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands .”
Behind every truly successful male minister stands the real reason –his coworker , his wife . My pastor is a Baptist icon ; his messages on faith , love , and commitment have their route to in his undying love and trust in his wife . She doesn’t stand in the pulpit, but she feels when he needs water and runs for it. Anything to encourage, support, and maintain his message she is willing to do. How could God not bless this union and this ministry?
I have seen wives who are shopaholics or partiers and have destroyed both their lives and the lives of their husbands. A man’s convictions can so easily be swayed by his love for his partner. A selfish woman can destroy everything she and her husband have built.
Lord, we love you today and pray that our devotion and commitment to you remains strong and firm regardless of the pressure exerted by a spouse or family. Let us keep our eyes on the real goal. For your service we live. Amen.
