FRIDAY, 13 JUNE
TEXT: EPHESIANS 5:21-33
TOPIC: MUTUAL SUBMISSION FOR TRUE LOVE
Unity, love and progress among couples to fulfil God’s purpose on earth must be mutual.
Paul captured this by giving us the key to making it easier: ‘out of reverence for Christ’
(Ephesians 5:21).
Mutual submission means each partner is willing to give themselves to the other when needed.
Christ laid His life on the cross for human redemption (John 3:16; Romans 5:8-9).
In a family with mutual love and submission, there will be joy, peace
and progress, which God wants for every family. “In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself’ (Ephesians 5:28-29).
QUESTION
Who should submit on the home front – husband or wife?
PRAYER
Help us to see submission to one another as reverence for
You, dear Lord, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
