““At last!” the man exclaimed. “This one is bone from my bone, and flesh from my flesh! She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken from ‘man.’””
Genesis 2:23 NLT
.
Eve (1st women in the world, the mother of us all)
- Equal image bearer of God
- Helper to Adam
- Cheated on God’s blessings
.
We are like her in so many ways. We cheat on God’s blessings for Satan’s messes.
We focus on what we don’t have instead of what we do have. She was only missing fruit from one tree.
She blamed others for her sin.
.
She was created by God to be Adam’s helper. She was taken from his rib.God took his time with the woman. Adam was dirt with breath. We were taken out of flesh and bone. She was different. She was a part of him(Adam).
.
Adam gave life to Eve. But Eve gave life to the world. She is at the top of the world’s family tree.
.
God knew that Adam couldn’t be alone.
The first Christian mingle. God brings her to Adam. (Verse 22)
.
Just because she was called the helper doesn’t mean she was the “help”.Not a slave mentality or personal assistant.
.
A partner at the side. Ribs come from the side. She was not taken from the head or the foot. Not for her to control him or under his feet.
.
We learn from Eve:
- Don’t cheat on God’s blessings for Satan’s messes.
- Focus on the garden you are in (ministry, motherhood, work)
- Follow the Kingdom lineup. Let the husband lead if he is leading biblically
- Be at his side, not over his head or under his feet.
- Compliment your spouse’s gifts.
