ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 24TH MAY 2025.
It is important to note that in Bible teachings, encounter precedes doctrine, in other words, before God places a behavioural demand on man, He has made a provision for encounter with Him, so that the behaviour when expressed, becomes a reflection of God’s glory and not a manifestation of man’s ‘achievement.’. This principle applies in our text for today: God originally designed marriage to reflect the relationship between Christ and the Church; and the matrimonial instructions in our passage are deliberately put after we have been shown who we are in Christ (as seen in chapters 1 to 3 of the Book of Ephesians). Against that backdrop therefore, we are shown how believing couples should live.
For Christians, submission and love are expressions of humility, trust and reverence towards God’s design for marriage. It involves a willingness to yield to one another and consider a priority, the needs and well-being of the spouse. However, Christian marriage among other things, should emphasize mutual submission, sacrificial love, and servant leadership.
Therefore, whether you are married or not, please note that God desires our daily living to mirror His character, especially in our homes. Are you still in love with your wife? Wife, do you submit to your husband?
PRAYER: Lord, please build our homes to glorify You, Amen!
