Little GOD'S ORDERPART IV When God awakens a woman to her lost condition, (Eph. 2:1, Luke 19:10), she sees not only that she has missed Christ and was deceived all the while, but she sees, as one godly woman in New Orleans stated it: '~a woman has two heads to come under, her husband and Christ." Have you ever seen that here, my dear woman? Yes, God said your desire shall be to your husband, ~Gen. 3:16), so you, as a woman, must come under the rulership of your husband and learn obedience to him also. As an awakened woman the Holy Spirit shows you that and you acknowledge that to Him! The great problem that I have found here for 30 years is rebellious women in my family who refuse to come under the rule of their husbands. You are deter mined not to come under the rule of your husband. The greatest cross a saved man has to bear is living with a rebellious and unsaved woman who is always trying to usurp authority over her husband. Satan will fight the man through the woman. She'll make insane debts and her husband will have to go down there and pay off those debts. Now that's one of the ways Satan has of fighting that man. Satan has complete charge of that woman and fights her husband through that rebellious woman. Am I talk ing about a woman over in Russia or in America? Am I talking about a worldly woman or a reli gious woman? There is very little di-erence between a woman of the secular world and a woman ofthe religious world. But in the life of an elect woman, God opens her heart as He did Lydia's (Acts 16:14) and as He did my heart and you attend unto the things spoken of by (jod's servant. Now let me go a little further, when a woman has learned obedi ence to her husband, she will not give God's servant any trouble. That’s right. But all down through the ages women have given God's servants trouble. If you had learned obedience to your husband, you wouldn't give me any trouble. A woman here said she was saved. On almost every turn she was rebelling and giving me trouble. I called her hand on it in this manner: "I'm not having trouble i'rom the other godly women like I’m having from you." J D simply has never learned obe dience to her husband! Now you can put that in your dress tail and sit on it! Rebellious women gave my two late pastors trouble. Women here in my family are always giving me trouble. As a dear woman wrote to me: "a rebellious woman can wreak much havoc upon a man." And you will never be saved as long as you are in rebel lion. Now you let that soak in! Church News Thought For The Week: “The soul of a sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.” • C.N.
