Women in Marriage

A transaction is an action involving two parties, reciprocating activities that result in mutual influence. On the other hand, an agreement is a transaction, trade or settlement. This transaction is not just between you, your spouse and God. There are many other witnesses when you exchange your vows and so there are influences from either side.

Do married people influence each other?
Yes;
Psalms 45:10-11 (A wedding song)

Listen, O daughter, give attention and incline your ear: Forget your people and your father’s house; Then the King will desire your beauty. Because He is your Lord, bow down to Him.
Earthly marriages are a reflection of the marriage between us, the church, and Christ. If you want your marriage to last, you need to understand this divine dynamic.
These are some of the changes that follow after marriage;
1.Your status: From single to married, you become a helper. You were not born as one. You have to adapt and be of suitable help to your husband.
2.You are becoming a good thing to your husband. A good and beneficial addition to your husband as you submit to him.
3.You are now getting into a new kingdom, from your Father to your Husband (your King)
You cannot move into your King’s kingdom with the constitution of your Father’s Kingdom. You have to conform to the new constitution and intentionally leave old habits in the old Kingdom.
In Genesis, during the escape from Sodom and Gomorrah, Lot’s wife was not present. She longed for the familiar and we both know how that story ends. Marriage is a call to unchartered waters, a new kingdom with a new constitution.
Submission and beauty go hand in hand. The King is fascinated when you submit. A wife’s beauty is expressed by showing reverence, submission and service to her husband’s government. You must be ready to leave (your father’s house) and cleave (to your husband). Trade the familiar for the unfamiliar.
