FIRST THINGS FIRST

“Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.”

-GENESIS 3:23-

These days, it seems like everyone just wants to be married. Why they desire it, what comes after the wedding, who feeds who, and all other necessities are not important; all they know is they want to marry or at the least, have a partner, a “help.” Are the days gone when men first focused on knowing and taking responsibility for themselves and then when with a family, taking care of the needs of that family?

It seems now the women are needing to become more financially responsible for their homes, with a “man” still living in it! This was not ordained to be from the beginning. The man was commanded by God to till the ground. That means to work at something profitable. It means putting your effort into something. It is an activity you use physical and/or mental effort for; something that should be productive. This command was never given to the woman, that is, Eve.

Incidentally, some men do not want to work at anything but they desire a wife.

You must understand that the God-ordained duty of a wife is to be a “helpmeet”. That means, there must be something for her to help you with. If you are not doing anything productive that requires the additional strength of someone else, then you absolutely do not need a wife.

To begin your work, you need a purpose. You need to work on why you exist. Remember the definition says “using physical and/or mental effort.” So, if you are not physically engaged in something, you must be mentally doing something productive. You don’t really need to start with a “white collar” or monthly 100,000-naira job, you can start small and watch God increase you through your diligent and dedicated service. The principle is this: No work, no wife. So, put your hands to work!

Remain Blessed!
