The "Helper"

The Lord God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him" 

(Genesis 2:18).

In Genesis 2:18, God gave man a "helper"… that’s us! Every single morning before your husband heads out to begin his day you should always pray over him... always! You see, Satan already has his game plan set up for the day. He has already drawn out his map of trickeries, traps, schemes, and stumbling blocks. He has laid out, devised, and calculated your husbands every move, so that he may slay him with lust!

Stephen Arterburn wrote a book called, “Every man’s Battle”. While we may not be aware of it, lust IS our husband’s toughest battle! As a godly woman, you must not turn a blind eye to this fact. With our sex saturated culture and the new trendy dressing of women, advertisements, television… our husbands have a lot to turn their heads from. It is my duty, and your duty, to help protect them from this by being patient, loving, understanding, and being in constant prayer! The newest trend is now spray paint jeans! Shorts, so short, that there is nothing left for the imagination. 

Going to the grocery store seems like an unlikely place to lust... or is it? 

From the very moment your husband wakes up, Satan has already planned and plotted his failure! This is why God has placed a good godly woman, a “helper”, in his life.

“Behold, I send you out as sheep amongst the wolves” (Matthew 10:16).

Our husbands are in a spiritual battle and they need us to cover them in the word of God. By covering them in prayer, we are covering them in God’s grace, asking Him to protect them from any temptation or stumbling block that may come his way. 

Now, let me ask you... what kind of helper are you being?
