“Displaced Thinking”
“Displaced Thinking”
It has been brought to my attention as of late, through the Holy Spirit, that men, husbands are deceived through displaced thinking. Mar 12:24 Jesus told them, "Are you not deceived because you don't know the Scriptures or the power of God?
Granted, God did say the woman is the weaker vessel; 1Pe 3:7 Husbands, in the same way, live with your wives with understanding of their weaker nature yet showing them honor as co-heirs of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered.
What man in his right mind, would take occasion to lord over his wife? If the woman, as Adam said, is bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh, then the man would be out of the will of God, while actually lording over himself. This stupid man action however; does not give allowance or occasion for a woman to disrespect her husband. This wrongful action in fact should bring the woman to the throne of grace at the Lord’s feet, where the woman can make her request known. First the cry of her heart, even in her pain asking that the Lord’s will be done, then thanking Him for making it so. When a person continues to ask over and over and over, the same request, where is the faith in this action, so ask, believe, thank God and receive your answer, Heb 11:1 Now faith is the reality of what is hoped for, the proof of what is not seen.
Keep in mind, when Jesus said do not continue in vain prayers, Mat 6:7 When you pray, don't babble like the idolaters, since they imagine they'll be heard for their many words.
When women verses men, men for the most part lose in the communicative skills area, but; this is a good thing, as God loves to hear from His children. Remember though, if you talk too much, you cannot hear all that is said, when God speaks, it’s in the still small voice. Man was made in the image of God and women were made in the image of man, woman may have gotten the better deal, because the rib that woman was made from, comes from a place next to the heart. Maybe, women got the heart of God in the transfer, because men build Jericho walls around their hearts as a measure of protection. There in lays a prayer for women to pray for their men, ask that God tear down the Jericho walls of the man’s heart and fill it with His love. One other advantage of taking things to the Lord vs. man, Mar 10:27 Looking at them, Jesus said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God, because all things are possible with God."
There is nothing that the man can do to appease or fix any problem, but God is far more able and capable and yes, even willing to make things right and He will get the glory for it.
It is my earnest hope that you are blessed, because you put this into action, believing, that you will see good results.
1Co 11:3 But I want you to know that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of the woman, and God is the head of Christ.
The scripture does not by any means negate the authority or leadership ability of women, it is the proper chain of command that God set up, and should be followed. Women, be the leader God called you to be, Esther rescued the house of Israel in leadership and you ,too can rescue your household in the same fashion! God bless each and every one of you as you apply, with love, the teaching.

I remember when I was single, I prayed and fasted for a husband using the old testament story of Hannah (although her petition was for a child). I remember using every verse of scripture the Holy Spirit would reveal to me in my prayers for a husband. I used prayers of faith and thanksgiving believing that I had received my request from the Lord. Not only did I use scripture, but I talked to married people about how they met their spouses and I read materials on marriage.
God is good in His infinite wisdom and now I'm able to share with other married women about the things that I learned whenever I find myself in the company of a woman going through marital challenges. I'm always encouraging the women to stand strong for their marriages if they believe their marriages are precious and valuable in the sight of God.
Don't get me wrong because I go through challenges all the time in my marriage, but I pull on the knowledge that I received through the materials and experience of others to keep me going. I also go to other married women to encourage me when I need it during my marital struggles. Marriage is a real journey and it's one that I intend to complete. Thanks again for the blog!
