THOSE THE LORD IS MAKING A HELP MEET FOR - Marital Series 004
Genesis 2:18, KJV
"And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him."
There are those the Lord is making a help meet for. Do you mind knowing those who are? The Bible verse we've been considering says, "and the Lord God said, it is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him."
When this verse reads this way, some might have thought God said He would create a help meet for an idle man (one with no specific work) but who's alone. No! Adam was never idle. He's a fully occupied man. When God says, "it is not good that the man should be alone...I will make him a help meet for him", God meant, "it is not good for Adam to be alone in the garden (in his home) and in the work He has given him." That's the major reason why God says, "for this purpose, I'll make him a helpmeet for him."
Why would God make Adam a helpmeet for him if there's never an intent for that? God knows Adam and the sort of work he has been called to do. For that reason, God had to create or fashion someone who'll be able to see the same work as pleasing and not as offensive. Why some couples never assisted each other is because they found the work the other is doing unsatisfying or unfulfilling. There's nothing Eve needs to meet in Adam's life if there was no assignment Adam has accepted and was doing that if any would co-labour must be someone who wants to do the same thing.
Also, God created Eve to bodily (structurally) and emotionally suit Adam. I don't know Eve's temperament but it sure was given to compliment Adam's.
Let me tell you this. Eve is tailor made for Adam. She is a vessel based on Adam's needs. Hear God speak once more. "And I'll make him a help meet for him." If you indeed found a spouse, that's how it'll be. Where you're weak, they'll be strong. They'll be created, given to you and would have been educated or trained just for the purpose of complimenting you. When your spouse doesn't fit or suit you, it means you married another person's spouse. You missed yours!
God knows each of us and He knows which of the women available at a particular time would fit or meet our needs. That's what He sent our way. May you find such help that'll fit you. If you purchase a dress that doesn't fit you, you can imagine how difficult and wasteful that is. The same applies to marrying a spouse that's not one's help meet. Instead of things falling in place, things will fall out of place. Instead of her being a help meet - suitable help for your life (meeting certain needs), she'll be creating needs!
PRAYER: Lord, carve me to be fit for someone. Lord, mercifully re-shapened spouses that aren't help meet to begin to meet help in their spouse's life.
