Discover How God Can Make Your Marriage Glorious

Created to Be His Help Meet, first published 10 years ago, has sold over 500,000 copies in 12 languages. I am amazed, reading the testimonies of woman in England, India, Saudi Arabia, China, Australia, and many other countries, as they share how their marriages have been saved and enriched through these biblical truths. Over the years I have learned from these many women, and, responding to their cries for help, have added TWO NEW CHAPTERS and other small revisions to address their needs. One of the new chapters is called, Servant or Servitude? There is a difference. One is godly, the other devilish. Did we fail to make that distinction clear enough the first time around? Some have indicated such. So we tackled the subject head on. May God continue to bless you as you read and obey the wonderful words of God.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 You were created to fill a man’s need for a helper, and in that capacity you are a good thing suited to his needs. You are inferior to none as long as you function within your natural nature, for no man can do your job. #2 When you are a help meet to your husband, you are a helper to Christ. When you honor your husband, you honor God. When you obey your husband, you obey God. #3 God’s original plan was that Adam and Eve be husband and wife, but Eve was created to be a help meet to Adam. As you read this, it may seem like blasphemy, but your husband deserves you as his help meet. #4 Men are created to be helpers of God. Society is structured so that men and women must submit to authorities like government, employers, police, and the courts. There is no loss of dignity in subordination when it serves a higher purpose.

A Yearly Companion Journal for "Created to be His Help Meet"

In recent years, men have been given a lot of mixed messages as to what it means to be a man, husband, or father. Men hate mixed messages.

Discover God's design for a man and how you can find joy doing what you were designed to do. Learn how love your wife even as Christ also loved the church. As always, Mike's presentation is direct with no holds barred and he is not afraid to hurt your feelings.

Saying "I do" to a man makes a woman a wife but saying "I do" to God makes her a Helpmeet. The word of God says in Genesis 2:18 that it was not good for man to be alone, so God created a Helpmeet that was suitable for him. There are so many distractions and hinderances to marriages in the body of Christ. Learning to be a sanctified wife allows God to improve, restore and heal a marriage. As Helpmeets learn to submit to their own husband as God says in Ephesians 5:22 God will prevail. The strategies and information in this book sharpens the spiritual tools to become the suitable helper God intended for you to be.

Being a good help meet starts long before marriage. It is a mindset, a learned habit, a way of life established as a young unmarried girl or at least that's the way it should be. Most girls spend plenty of time planning for their wedding, but make no preparation for the weeks and years to follow. It was with good reason God said let the aged women teach the younger. Preparing to Be a Help Meet contains six sweet love stories written by wives sharing their experiences about how God taught them to be the help meets they are today. Girls will be instructed on how young men seek out a wife and what they are looking for in a possible mate. In the last chapter, several men speak up to say what they really appreciate in their wives. And of course, several single, wife-hunting males speak out here and there to give their opinion of what I have written.
