Who Is A Godly Wife? // Before I Do - Stephanie Ike Okafor

[@maryjaneugwuanyi7951]

I'm 28 years old, and next month will mark three years of marriage. The first two years were full of fights and arguments. I would have left if it weren't for my pregnancy, as I don't believe in single parenting when both parents are alive. The last major argument happened when I gave birth. My husband said some terrible things that day, which caused my blood pressure to spike to 180/120. I had a headache, palpitations, and feared I might collapse, possibly due to the lingering effects of anesthesia during delivery. That day, I prayed to God, who told me, "If you want me to fix your husband, you need to just stay calm and submissive when he talks to you, no matter what he says or how he says it. Your behavior is all I need to change him." It's been a year, and it hasn't been easy to remain calm when I have so much to say. However, the good news is that he is changing, even if not completely, the difference is noticeable. I have found a kind of peace I never thought possible in my marriage, and our home has been peaceful since last year. Praise God.

God knows exactly how to handle us. He has taught me when to be silent and how to speak to my husband when I must say something and it does work. Marriage is not for the weak. Prayers for you and your marriage. 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@amywarner1381]

I have been married for 6 years this year september, and what really stands out for me was when you said that having parents that are in a good marriage is an advantage ... my parents was married for 24 years me and my sisters witnessed countless adultry happening in my parents marriage, constant fights arguments and belittling... we didnt have any example of what a good marriage is just little bits of good moments between my parents. Their marriage ended in divorce.. and that spirit of adultry seemed to have been with me in my marriage even tho i have been blessed with a handsome, smart Godly man but still had this evil with me... God delivered me from that spirit and watching your video just shows me that i need to submit to my husband i havent fully done so... thank you for saying its a process i normally expect God to change me instantly like baaaaaam you are now submissive but that stems out of being lazy and not allowing God to uproot the issues within me so i can fully be healed... Stephanie Okafor! I thank you for your obedience to our Lord and saviour i desire to come to that obedience too one day! The fear of the Lord is truly His treasure! Godbless you!

I did not have a role model to show me how to treat your husband and I am now learning on my own during this time how to submit to my husband. I am praying for a miracle because I love my husband and I love my family. I want to do things right in front of God’s eyes and I want my marriage back. This video gave me so much hope!

Sometimes your silence becomes the microphone for the Holy Spirit, it's not everything you respond to as a woman, I needed to hear that. I grew up in a single parent home and you're so right about that, your default is to respond according to your exposure. This series is the preparation that we all need, i'm so grateful.

[@andreaboachie3951]

Wow, what a blessing to have this knowledge. I have been married for 7 years and just recently moved out of my home to another state because I didn't feel valued but now seeing this, I realize I was not submissive, I was not a safe place for him and was not a friend to him. I only guarded my heart and reacted out of my emotions. I only wish I knew these things sooner.

[@krystalwilliams1546]

It’s not too late!! God is one of redemption He makes all things new! Repent to God, repent to your husband, and know that with commitment and trust in following the Lord’s blueprint you all can have the best marriage that you never even knew could exist even a year from now! Have humility, forgive, and obey God in the work! Don’t give up or allow the enemy to tell u it’s too because what’s impossible with man is possible with God!

[@TS-ym3bo]

It's not too late

[@Ctiqua01]

Its not too late sister. Trust I have had these thoughts myself and been married 7 years as well, but it is me. I am not consistent in prayer over my spouse nor am I respecting him. So this helps tremendous and God does not want me to divorce my spouse nor separate. I love God and I want to obey his commandments. I am praying God restore your marriage for its not about self, its about honoring God. 🙏🏾🙏🏾

There's no broken relationship that God cannot fix. You can still make an effort with God to make it work again if there's any hope.

As an independent woman, I really have to unlearn a lot of things in order to be submissive when I finally become a wife. Holy Spirit I submit to Your teaching, I'm willing to go all the way. Thank you pastor Stephanie and may grace abound. You don't know how this series is doing in me. Blessings all around.

[@RiseUpTheKingdomOfGod]

Amen

[@G_Galore]

Something I was taught is that we have to already be “wifes” as the scripture says “he who finds a wife finds a good thing”. So as it relates to submission, we can be submissive to the men and women of God in our lifes now; like pastors, our parents, small group leaders etc.(not bfs)to prepare us for marriage. That way it’s a practiced habit vs something we’re starting upon marriage (I’m single as well)

[@tiffanysalerno]

I love the ponytail story! I have a recent similar story where I was trying to tell my husband no but I submitted anyway. We ended up both getting blessed in a big, surprising way! The rewards of obedience are a real thing! And obedience includes submitting to our husbands!

Thanks! Stephanie Ike you are truly a blessing to me, and I thank God for your obedience continue to dwell in the secret place of the most high God ❤

[@edidiongakpan9729]

Am very glad i bumped into this video , i realized that submission is a journey for the woman and as a man i should be patient enough to let her grow into it fully and i should also appreciate the little milestones she is accomplishing in submission. I dont plan to make submission hard and difficult for my wife , thanks to you Stephanie more grace ma😊

Thank you Stephanie for being someone who helps me navigate my relationship with God. You are really helping me in building a relationship with God. Thank you so much, we appreciate you. You speak to every season of my life and I hope to meet you one day. I’m watching from Botswana by the way ❤️ I love you 😘

God has and continues to teach me how to be a Godly wife to a husband not walking with God, it’s hard. I may not get it right all the time but God has changed me so much. We have been married for 11 years and I feel like I just started to get the hang of being a submissive help meet to him. It takes a lot of prayer and dying to self.

[@camilleyoung962]

[@fumizacharia1622]

We'll be celebrating our 11th year anniversary this October, but the first two years were trying. I almost ended my marriage if not for my mother. Then the Holy spirit instructed me to submit to my husband and I decided to submit. But still we still had issues, he took my submission for granted and disrespected me even more. I was miserable and depressed and wondered if God was even seeing what I was going through. Then the Holy spirit instructed me to pray for my husband and that was when I started seeing results. The day my husband called me blessed and that he was a very lucky man to be married to me, that day I knew God has taken charge of his heart and of our home. Submission and prayers for our spouse is a great weapon. Thank you for sharing these powerful message.

Great word pastor ☺️☺️ I also wanted to add to 31:57 that your husband may not be comfortable with not just some your male friends but also some of your female friends alike…….I have heard of cases where a husband warned his wife about her female friend and the wife being strong headed didn’t listen and that led to the breakdown of the home because the friend was jealous and did everything in her power to end the marriage. Whenever your partner expresses concern about the people around you……PAY ATTENTION.

[@motsa5343]

We forget that God is working on those around us (including our husbands) just as instenselu as he is working on us. So it serves us good to submit to our (future) husbands and to be good listeners and intentional with our words. When I became a mother I gave so much attention to our baby, that I became 'annoyed' with my husband. God called me out by askind me why are you hurting my child, and I thought but im doing everything for your child, and he said I love my child just as much as you love your baby. I realised he was talking about my husband as his child not our baby. That was a heart changing POV for me.

[@kaybryan7530]

25:22 oooo i felt that. I can't just gain knowledge and now use it

[@estrellasyfrases]

Pastor Stephanie, thank you so much for doing this series. I am a new Christian, and my husband and I are going through couples counseling to work through being a partnership and having two different belief systems. My husband is an unbeliever and wants to protect our son from the influence of Christianity. He wants to forbid our son from going to church, reading or learning about the Bible, hearing worship music, and being around other Christians. I am completely willing to become the Godly wife that God calls us to be. I respect my husband's rules and submit to him. Let me tell you, Jesus has transformed our marriage in how He has been working on my heart, helping me to be more submissive and empathetic. Pastor Stephanie, I will rewatch this and take notes. I have also sent this to my sister, who is also a new follower of Jesus and is married with a young child. Father God, thank you for working with and through Pastor Stephanie to reach so many men and women across the world and help us draw closer to you. All the glory and praise goes to you.

We’re both weak vessels. We both have to submit to God. We’re both accountable to God. Most of all, not only do we submit to God, but we both need to depend on God. There’s decency and order in God.

Thank you Pastor Steph for this great and insightful marriage series. For comments talking about marriages and issues with regards to submission, Pastor Stephanie's marriage series is primarily addressing singles who are not yet married, so that they can gain knowledge and understanding in order to Choose well and marry well. Because God's original order is that as a woman-you SUBMIT to the man that you have carefully and prayerfully chosen to marry and as a man-you LOVE the woman that you have carefully and prayerfully chosen to marry-regardless of their shortcomings because nobody is perfect. We are all work in progress and we help each other to become the better version of ourselves. Anything less is Disobedience to God. God's Idea is to Choose right and Marry right. If you choose well-Love and submission will not be an issue because you are both Submitted to God.

You're blessed and highly favored! Steph might consider doing this with her husband. After all, the "Single Men" could use godly counsel.

I just want to encourage you Stephanie as we all need encouragement in this life. This word was well said. I have not heard it said in this way. I also love your example with when your hubby told you to go to the salon that said they didn't do ponytails and the lord spoke to you and rewarded you as well as increased your faith in what his word says. I also like the insight of Sarah's submission and tying it to how God covers her. I love you and God bless and keep you and your family

[@YouDontKnowTheCost_Ministries]

This was the best one yet! Every woman needs to watch this. As he’s preparing me now. The knowledge I’m soaking in I’m grateful for. I’m willing to change to be the best version I can be for Christ, and my future husband. Thank you woman of God!

[@iamcolormecourtney9136]

Jesus!!! 🙌🏾 Thank you Father for giving Pastor Stephanie your wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. The gift to unpack your word…🙌🏾 This message is soooo timely. Thank you for your transparency..needed it! I’m willing change and apply what I’m learning..me Holy Spirit🙏🏽

[@XtraOrdinaire134]

Oh my goodness the hair example gave me insight on the mysteries & deep secrets of submission. Wow! the voice of God cannot lead you astray.

Hey, when will you drop “Does God select your spouse” ? Loved this so far❤

[@jenny_enemuo]

When I read the story of Sarah and Abraham you cited, honestly I thought he was crazy. It’s really a hard teaching to submit even when you think his idea is foolishness. But now I know it means I trust God to work it out with him or just intervene. Thank you Pastor Stephanie, it’s always a blessing listening to you ❤.

Pastor Stephanie, may you make a video on what this looks like in courtship? You made a vital point regarding how your behavior played a pivotal role into making it in marriage. Thus, I think more knowledge is needed ... like what are the boundaries on showing these qualities (ie: submission) to a man you're courting?

[@ThecreativeTolu]

This!! I also commented on the godly husband's teaching about boundaries. I'm looking forward to learning on this topic from her

[@_QueenBell]

@@ThecreativeTolu Yeahh i think it’s a huge gap of knowledge regarding courtship. Everything is either singleness or marriage

[@sharongold8606]

This whole series has been a blessing to me, I’m learning a lot about the Godly biblical marriage. God bless you pastor Steph!

[@ea4b]

This series just gets better & better. Thank you God for Pastor Stephanie ❤

[@kendi254]

There's beauty in quiet and gentleness . And for sure sometimes silence becomes the microphone for the holy spirit. Wonderful message

[@BrainfulMedia]

Can we please have part 6, please pastor Stephanie. I’m really enjoying this series and learning a lot, been taking a lot of notes. I feel prepared and ready to be a godly wife all thanks to your teaching. Part 6 PLEASE 🙏

[@christinestone7732]

Funny story when my husband and I were getting married. And the pastor was going over our wedding vows. I didn't want the word. Wife submit to your husband for me. It was a trigger because I had been in an abusive relationship and was a single mom for 23 years prior to meeting my husband. But as I'm learning and on this walk with God now that I understand more clearly because God has given me clarity on what he meant by wife submitting to your husband's. It makes me sad that I didn't have it in my wedding vows, because now that I understand and have the knowledge and It's like you mentioned having wisdom and knowledge. And now. I embrace it as a beautiful thing. My husband and I we laugh about that now. Because it's just a funny story.❤😂

[@nadykamanga186]

Love this! As a woman wanting to be married when my time comes I’m still working that out with the Holy Spirit bc like you said it triggers me too not bc of a bad romantic relationship but seeing my dad abusing my mum’s submission to dominate her in a bad way… (you know the people that interpret the Bible to always be in their favor).. but like your story, God can turn anything bad into something beautiful and I know He is turning my heart too to see submission as a shelter me and not a sword that will pierce me…🧡

[@sarahtamba5091]

This is so touching. Lately, it has been really crazy with my marriage and my response has been very harsh. I received this revelation today and I’m taking a new trend in honor to God.

[@nabalayodeidre6862]

Watching and listening to this ,my inner man is in total agreement I now understand that silence is so golden and not everything needs a response ,I almost spoilt a good relationship with always thinking I have to speak my mind and it always made the situation worse .But lately the holy Spirit has been working on my heart and tongue ,submission is for a heart willing to lay down self for the other .Thank you pastor Stephanie for teaching us the Godly principles of living I will come back with a testimony in Jesus name

[@ujukamanu]

I love how your sweaters are love themed to match the series 😂💗

[@odomaa1]

I thought I was the only one that noticed

[@Godismyenergy]

We still need the other two videos please 🙏🏾

[@cherylhlatshwayo3318]

I feel like God is calling me to bootcamp prep for being a Godly. We often pray to get married but we don’t have the knowledge and biblical teachings on how to raise and submit to our kings 🙏🙏🙏 lord have mercy on us

[@Linda-bm1gp]

I need that part 6 so badly 😭

[@Designer1-ProjectManager]

[@MaryVargas2025]

[@ujukamanu]

Wonderful teaching! I’m learning a lot and praying it sticks for when it’s time 🤭
