I am absolutely excited to share this quick word with you all. You guys know I've been struggling with letting go of the past. Well God set me straight this afternoon with this. Reflecting on my past relationship(s), I often wonder why I could never listen to the guy. Why I could never let him take the lead? Although he would be right, I could never listen to him. Even when I was upset at him for not stepping up and taking the lead in our relationship/situationship, I let him slide in not taking the lead. Why is that?
Adam had dominion over everything on earth. When God saw that he was alone, he took a rib from Adam and created Eve, his mate (woman). God gave Adam the responsibility of watching over everything that was to him including his mate. Furthermore, more specifically In Genesis 3: 16 God places Adam over Eve. He (Adam) must lead her (Eve). She now must listen to him.
The reason I could never listen to them was because they were not my Adam. They were not my leader, my protector, the one I was made to help. At one point during my situationship, I realized that I was being the man. Protecting, providing, leading not only in everyday life but in faith as well. ( I was always forcing prayer or reading the word.) The balance was off. He began to resent me and I lost respect for him. In coming to understand the word, I learned that your Adam will follow God. He will follow Gods word. He will lead, he will provide and protect etc. It will not be so hard and hurtful to let him lead and for you to listen to his direction.
If you are in a relationship and it absolutely pains you to listen to him and let him lead. The balance is off. 2 things:
Another thing that was revealed, another blog I will likely dive deeper into is Songs of Solomon 8:4. Awakening your Adam before its time. The bible says that God put Adam in a deep sleep to remove his rib and to create Eve from it. God cut open into Adam- healed him and then brought his help mate to him. ( re-read that last sentence until you get it) When God brought Eve to Adam, God didn't even say anything to Adam. He automatically realize this one was different. This one was like him, of him. He loved her. Genesis 2:23-24
If you are still struggling to understand the underlined sentence, let me explain. God broke down Adam a little bit. He decommission Adam for a little while. He then took a piece Adam during that breakdown and then he healed Adam. He didn't leave him broken or even bruised. And from that piece he took from Adam, he created Eve, his helper. God created Adam from dirt, how easy for God to have done that again to create Eve?? But he didn't. Eve, more than anyone or anything else can understand Adam because she is from him bone, his flesh and his decommissioned state. She is able to understand a part of him that he can't even explain but she feels.
Back to the Leader ( The Lord took over completely- i don't know who that was for but God needed you to read that. So get it? Got it? Good) Your Adam is your leader. He will not trample over you but protect you, provide for you, love you and lead you. You in turn will listen to him and take to his advise. You will feel comfortable when he leads and takes charge because you trust that he is not leading on his own understanding and capabilities. But it is by God's word.
I pray we find our leaders and have patience to wait until God awakens him and presents us to him.
Love you to Peace,

If you are in a relationship and it absolutely pains you to listen to him and let him lead. The balance is off. 2 things:
1- If he is a man of God, he will not mislead you. He will not purposely or repeatedly hurt you. He will follow God's word to the best of his ability. Now remember we all fall short of the glory of God. So I'm not saying he should be absolutely perfect but there should be evidence of good fruit. ( read previous posts about The Fruit)
2- Sorry to say this but you may not be his Eve. He shouldn't have to battle with you to listen. If he is doing the best he can to walk in righteousness but you my dear just can't get on his page. SisterGirl, let that man be free. Spend time at the feet of the Lord and let him lead you to the right one. Let the Lord lead the right one to him.
