SUBMISSION

SUBMISSION

Devotional:- “Submitting to one another in the fear of God” (V. 21)

        Most people look at the word submission as a statement of weakness. In the world, the word submission interprets surrender i.e., to accept defeat and submit to fate. So, most people struggle in life because they have dreams and aspiration they don’t know how to achieve. The truth is that until God is part of our race, it may be hard to achieve. The word submission in the word of God is living to allow the will of God to be done in all areas of our lives (Matthew 26:39).

The word of God says, we should submit to each other in the fear of the Lord. This is to allow the will of God to direct the way we relate. Whenever we are doing this, we are giving honour to Christ by doing what pleases Him. Whenever we reference and submit to each other, then, we are cooperating with each other. In submission, we respect each other. This is an act of letting the opinion of others count. It is willingness to listen and take counsel or correction from others.

To be submissive does not mean we don’t know what we are doing, but rather to tolerate and allow other people’s opinion. This helps us to foster unity and friendship. The word of God specifically asks the women to submit to their husband (Ephesians 5:22). This is to be done as unto the Lord. This will give your husband a mentality of leadership and headship. That will help you to observe and counsel him. By that, you will be his best adviser. It will therefore be wise that men also submit and listen to the advice of their wives. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me a submissive Spirit.

“SUBMISSION IS NOT A SIGN OF WEAKNESS, BUT WISDOM”
