PHANEROO~DEVOTION 30th January 2016 LESSONS IN VIRTUE IV Apostle Grace Lubega

[1 Corinthians 11:10]; For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.

Let me teach you something about submission by the wife. Take an example of this scenario. If I am with a man and his wife while they drive home and the man says something in ignorance and her outburst is, ‘no,no,no…we will not do that’, the point is not that he is wrong; the point is that she has already removed the cover off her head. If she disagrees, let her atleast wait for me to leave the car and then she can tell him that she does not agree with what he had said.

If he says, ‘No,’ understand that he is still your cover. If he still insists, tell him, ‘I will support you.’ Sarah knew that. She told Abraham to get rid of the slave woman and he said no. I know women who would roll their eyes, put their hands akimbo and ask him how dare he. Some might not even speak a word but will grumble until even the house help knows that there is something wrong between her and the husband; ‘foolish useless man, changing from woman to woman’. Then she will go to the children still whining about him.

You are not married to that maid; you are not even married to your children. They will eventually leave and you will still stay with mister. When you are under power, watch your mouth. The essence of submission is a wise mouth. The submitted spirit knows how it should speak.

Excerpt from the sermon HUMILITY OF THE SPIRIT I: by Apostle Grace Lubega

The essence of submission is a wise mouth. The submitted spirit knows how it should speak.
