The role change in marriage can lead to divorce! What do I mean by role change? When women start making more money than the men or the man start making less money then he did when they first got married. The roles in marriage change. Well at least they seem to change but in reality they do not according to the Word of God. In this case the woman has to transition her corporate mentality into a virtuous woman mentality. That is what the Proverbs 31: woman is all about! If you read Proverbs 31 you will be surprised how this great woman of God was able to support her family (the Holy Bible does not mention at all the mans income or if he had one at all) and be able to take care of the home simultaneously.

However, in our society today in many cases some women feel that they do not need a man because they can provide for themselves. The woman has become the breadwinner and the head of the household instantly without the man in the home. In some cases if the man is in the home, she has still become the head of the household with her corporate mentality. There is nothing wrong with the woman being the bread winner (we see that in Proverbs 31 considering the man shows no income in scripture) however, the man still has his responsibility as a man to till the land or be the patriarchy of the home. He has to be obedient to the scripture to love his wife as Christ loves the Church, Eph. 25 and I Tim. 5:8, (God commanded his people especially the man of the house to provide for his household!)

Therefore, if the income changes in the home and the wife starts to make more money than the man, women do not hold it over their heads. This is what God has ordained for you to do to be the helpmeet in your marriage, which is glorious in the site of God. In addition, men do not feel inferior to your wife because she is the breadwinner but respect and honor her as your wife and the love of your life. If you want examples for this scenario then look in Proverbs 31, you will find it there.
