Wow!!! I'm his helper (4)


But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you” John 14:26

Ladies! Do you realise that the bible refers to you as a HELPER (Genesis 2:18). Your responsibility to your husband is likened to that of the Holy Spirit to us – isn't that amazing and humbling? You have a very special position and role in your husband’s life and destiny. Please don’t let self, society and fear stop you from fulfilling this God-given role.

Today, I continue to explore the unique privilege of being my husband's helper. You can read the first part HERE the 2nd part HERE and the 3rd part HERE


No 4 - To intercede – Romans 8 – 26 – 27

Now, before I go on, I would love to recommend a book by Stormie Omartian. You probably have heard about it – The Power of a Praying Woman series. If possible, please read all the books in the series, particularly The Power of a Praying Wife. There are some amazing eye-openers to the effective and fervent prayer of a wife for her husband.

It also includes a prayer theme to guide you in the areas that you can pray for your man. I recommend it again and again.

As my beloved’s helper, I have the huge responsibility of praying for him and with him.

One of the best and most effective love languages is prayer (thanks Mr Gary Chapman). There are so many areas and things that we can ‘change’ using the soft but dynamic power of prayer.

I pray with all my heart to be a helper who depends heavily on the power of prayer rather than the (in)effectiveness of my mouth aka nagging, frowning, silent treatment, crying lol – God help moi!

God, I don’t know why You gave women this huge responsibility, however, I know that in your wisdom, you chose the most suitable vessel. I thank You Daddy because when You give a task, You always give the grace and sufficient resource to carry it through, thank You for being our greatest Helper of all. Thank You for making me woman, a Helper to my man.
