The Power of Two
It has often been said and practiced, " the head of the house should make the decisions". . . .How wrong and misleading that statement is. In fact, the truth of the matter is that the head of the house should only initiate the process. Being head means first! First to lead , first to set standards , first to initiate, first to submit, and on and on as the Bible describes a "real head". Because God has made you a head, does not mean that you are a dictator!
Let's see what the Word of God has to say: Matthew 18:19 says.....Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven....(notice the key points are in bold letters) It is very important to understand our roles in our marriage relationship. Our position in God makes us head, our commitment to each other makes us one, and our act of joining together in obedience gives us authority that we would not ordinarily have. It's called " the Power of Two".
You see, God has equipped our marriages with a key called the power of two , to be able to exercise our rights as one upon the earth. That's right, your marriage actually has a God-given right to accomplish the things necessary for your marriage to grow. It's another one of God's Laws. The Power of two, touch and agree, no more twain but one. All of these biblical cliches if you will derive from a law of God, by faith, and it actually works.
Look even at God's law of tithing. People who don't even live for God but tithe, they NEVER RUN OUT OF MONEY, why? because it is a law of God. Give 10% of your earnings to God and your return will be pressed down, shaken together, and running over! Luke 6:38. Guaranteed!
Make your marriage a marriage of fruitfulness, power and authority. Let the power of two operate in your lives. It will help you accomplished things that others won't even be able to reach. It will also teach you both the joy of marriage and give you a closeness and a bond that cannot be broken.
Allow me to help you today, .....Be wise, take the challenge, exercise the power of two., you can thank me later!
