Are You a Helper? by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 07/07/11

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: Do the men around you feel helped, or do they feel alone?

Genesis 2:18 tells us what God said right before creating the first woman: “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”

If you’re a woman listening today, are you fulfilling the role God’s given you as a helper? Here are some questions to help you evaluate.

  • Have you embraced your God-given design to be a helper?
  • Are you willing to sacrifice your own ambitions in order to help your husband?
  • Do you provide him with companionship?
  • Do you complement your husband or compete with him?
  • Perhaps you’re single. What kinds of words, actions, and attitudes would help the Christian men around you become all God wants them to be?
  • Are you promoting healthy, godly marriages in the ways you relate to other women’s husbands?

Lord, help us fulfill the purpose for which you created us. Amen.

With Seeking Him, Nancy Leigh DeMoss

  • “When we begin to understand what the blood of Jesus does for us, we will testify to the power of His blood, and shall thus have power continually to overcome the enemy. It is blessed to note that the blood of Jesus is the purchase price of our full salvation. ‘Take heed…to feed the church of God, which He hath purchased with His own blood’ (Acts 20:28)” – Carrie Judd Montgomery

Verse of the Day

And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe lying in a manger. Now when they had seen Him, they made widely known the saying which was told them concerning this Child. And all those who heard it marveled at those things which were told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart. Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them. — Luke 2:16-20 (NKJV)
