Genesis 2:18- “And
the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him
a help meet for him.”:
If those who have no God in the world would refuse to
listen to God as concerning marriage, let the Christian man pay greater
attention.
When God initiated marriage for the man He created, there is one
thing well noted as recorded in the text above. For every man, God intends that
the wife is coming into his life as a helper to meet his needs- that’s the
word, help meet.
But remember, every man has differing needs, quite distinct
from others. That’s why what meets one’s needs may not meet another’s. Some folks
go about saying all women are women, all wives are wives.
No brother, all
women are not your woman; all wives are not your wife; for if that woman you’re eying now for marriage be ‘a mechanic’ and you have no car, and so have no
need of a mechanic, what need would she meet in your life? It would then be
that the tools she would have used on a car, she uses it on your head; or if
she be ‘a painter’ and you have no need of a painter as you have no house to
paint, then she must needs employ her profession on you, and paint you with her
pot of soup, which thing would not fair you well.
Many marriages today that
produced the worst of wives and husbands, would have produced the best of wives
and husbands, if not for the mismatch. Remember, it is God who makes the helper
that is meet, fitting, suiting, compatible with you. All you need do is to tune
your ears well and hear God tell you of the wife He has made to meet your
needs.
But if thou thinkest that open teeth, fair skin, paper certificate and
multiple degrees, rich father-in-law and her unassuming courtesy will meet your
needs, brother you deceiveth yourself, and would definitely pay for your folly!
