THE ENEMY IN-A-ME
go back and apologize and say, honey I'm sorry, I didn't mean to treat you
like this. But out of the anger that's inside them, it's just over ows from time
to time and as hard as they are on the wife, they are that much harder on
themselves, because they don't like themselves.
When you take out your anger and frustrations on your wife, you’re taking it
out on yourself because your wife is your body. If you want to know what
you think about yourself, just watch how you treat your wife.
Now I was raised by my mother, in some areas she did pretty good, but the
area where I needed it the most, she couldn’t cut the mustard. She didn’t
have what it took to teach me how to be a man because she wasn’t a man.
She was hard and stern and at times outright intimating. In fact we as men
don’t even know how to be a man. In the book Maximized Manhood, Ed Cole
said; “We are male by birth but man by choice.” What a profound statement,
because we do have to be taught how to be Godly Men, Godly Husbands,
and yes Godly Fathers. But what my mother showed and taught me about a
woman is worth more than gold and silver. She taught me what I call
the seven secrets of a woman. I'm about to give you some information that
most men don't even know, I'm about to reveal to you one of the seven
secrets of a woman. I'm talking about something that will revolutionize your
marriage if you would just humble yourself and allow the Holy Spirit to do a
new work in you.
In the beginning after God created man in the Garden of Eden , God said, "It's
not good for the Man to be alone; I'll make him a helper, a companion." [Genesis
2:18] He put Adam in a deep sleep and He took a part of man to make the
woman. [Genesis 1:21 In the very beginning they were made one esh. And God
made them male and female and called their name Adam. [Genesis 5:1] Their
unity and oneness was so perfect that they had the same name. It was only
after they sinned and a separation between them and God, that the woman
was called Eve. [Genesis 3:20]
The attraction that caused Adam to be drawn to Eve was that he looked at
her and saw that she was his body. He looked at her and said, she is bone of
my bones, and esh of my esh, and I will call her name woman. [Genesis 2:23]
