Our Price:$6.97CAD »More info... » »Add to Wish List

Without a doubt, a wife's most important responsibility in relation to her husband is to reverence him. Submission is a wife's position. Reverence is her practice or activity. Reverence is the command that balances and gives meaning to submission. It is also the thing that makes a wife a success as a wife. The need of a wife, given by her Creator, is for the security of her husband's love. The need of a husband, given by His Creator, is for his wife's reverence. Reverence motivates a husband, moves him, builds him, lifts him, challenges him, empowers him, and encourages him! This message, enhanced with over 170 on screen graphics, explains what reverence is and also tells what it is not. It also tells a dramatic story of how a wife used the power of reverence to save her marriage and win her husband to Christ.

The 7-Fold Power of a Wife's Submission

One of the most difficult commands in the Bible for many wives is "submit unto your own husbands as unto the Lord." For many wives this creates "a double fear with terror" concerning what their husbands might do. On the contrary, the only way a wife has to make her husband a good "head of their home" instead of a bad one is for her to use the incredibly powerful tool of submission. When submission is combined with "reverence," seven types of dynamite power are released: 1- The power to change her whole attitude toward life. 2- The power to protect her from her husband's foolish decisions. 3- The power to grow her spiritually. 4- The power to make her husband what God intends him to be. 5 The power to influence him to do good or evil. 6- The power to protect her husband's vulnerable back. 7- The power to change her husband.

The Attitude No Lady Should Have

There was a home to which Jesus retreated that was full of hospitality, warmth, graciousness, and friendship. This was the home of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. This message focuses on the lady named Martha. Martha had many wonderful character qualities. She was orderly, diligent, generous, hospitable, concerned, loving, and faithful. But Martha had an attitude that every lady should examine her life to make sure she doesn't have. This attitude was seen very clearly in the way Martha acted and reacted to Jesus. EVERY TIME THE SCRIPTURES SHOW MARTHA SPEAKING SHE IS REBUKING THE LORD JESUS. Obviously, an attitude that could rebuke Jesus is a wrong attitude that could rebuke anyone! The power of a Godly lady is not in her ability to rebuke, but rather in her ability to wisely appeal. The Martha attitude was an inattentive attitude; an impatient attitude; an intolerant attitude; and an "I'm right and you're wrong!" attitude. Fortunately, the Martha attitude is one that Jesus is able to correc...

How to Avoid the Destructiveness of a Wrong Self-Image

Out of all the messages Dr. Davis preaches, he feels this may be the most important one for young ladies. One of the biggest things that happens when a person allows un-confessed sin to stay in his or her life is that the sin destroys the person's feeling of worth. The sewage of sin is so personal that it is hard for you to get it in you without feeling like it is you. If you have no feeling of worth, then you will also see no reason to live. God does not mean for us to be proud, but He does mean for us to feel like we are special to Him! Any person can feel badly about himself. But it is really easy for a lady to feel badly about herself. A lady can do little or nothing wrong and still feel worthless. Powerfully illustrated with many incredible stories, this message will explain why ladies will seek out or stay with abusive men. More importantly, this will explain why and how to deal with sin in the life and why and how to stay close to God.

God's Way to Deal With Your Wrong Emotions

Our Price:$6.97CAD »More info... » »Add to Wish List

Most of us, like people in the Bible, have some wrong emotions at some time. Moses in anger disobeyed God and smote the rock. Samson, mighty judge of Israel, was in love with Delilah, a Philistine harlot. Elijah was depressed. Saul was jealous. Pilate feared the people. The problem with those people and with us is that emotions are so powerful that we have a tendency to follow them--often to disaster! To understand how to deal with wrong emotions, we must first learn: (1) Why God made them; (2) What has happened to them; and, very importantly (3) WHERE THEY ARE LOCATED. The example of great men and women of the Bible who experienced victory in this area was that they never allowed the emotions to take precedence over the mind and the will. When a Christian learns to have the mind of Christ and puts that mind in charge of his will, then emotions can be a blessing instead of a burden. It is also then possible to live life normally instead of like one is on a wild roller coaster ride.

The Language of the Christian's Clothing

Our Price:$9.97CAD »More info... » »Add to Wish List

The most important clothing for the Christian is not the clothing of the body. The most important clothing for the Christian is the clothing of the soul. The Bible gives five types of clothing for the soul. Once a person is wearing the proper clothing on their soul, they will want to know what is the proper clothing for the body. INNER CLOTHING RELATES TO OUTER CLOTHING. Those who say that outer clothing is not important to God need to remember that clothing was the first area God dealt with in relation to Adam and Eve after they sinned. Since it is not possible to determine proper clothing by human reason, we must study God's Word. Here we find what is modesty and what is nakedness; what is proper or improper for men and women, etc.
