WHO IS A HELPER?


Please I would love to know what the definition of a helper is?

Answers

Holy Spirit

John 15:26 But when the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, Standby) comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth Who comes (proceeds) from the Father, He [Himself] will testify regarding Me

John 16:7 However, I am telling you nothing but the truth when I say it is profitable (good, expedient, advantageous) for you that I go away. Because if I do not go away, the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, Standby) will not come to you [into close fellowship with you]; but if I go away, I will send Him to you [to be in close fellowship with you]

Woman


Genesis 2:18 The LORD God said, "It isn't good for the man to live alone. I need to make a suitable partner for him.


To summarize all the questions or discussions,
The Holy Spirit as a helper is
1) Sent by the Lord to comfort
2) Works and brings to your remembrance all you have deposited on your inside via God's word
3) Helps you and directs you, according to your awareness of him, willingness to yield, and attitude of obedience. 
"The Holy Spirit will never force you on anything."

What does this tell us?

The Holy Spirit can be useful in our lives to the level and degree we are willing to grow in our relationship with Christ. He is willing to show us mighty things, but if you don't open up to him, fellowship with God or concern yourself with the things of God, how will he even do that?

That is why only those that are born again receive the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not in unbelievers why? Because they do not know Christ, talk less about know what role is in their lives.
Major summary; The Holy Spirit works with people that know have found Christ and are willing to go through the journey in HIM and need earthly help and directions.
The woman as the Helpmeet is there to help the man and partner with him in his Vision. What does that mean? A woman will only be able to help you to the degree which you make her know your vision, understand it and help her understand her role in it.
So any man without a vision doesn't have business looking for a wife. 
                          
                                              *Helpmeets are for Visionary Men*.

So the helpmeet role is not a confusing programme, the woman works with what she sees and understands as revealed by the man.

As for the men being helps or not; It wasn't stated like that in the bible, not because the woman will not have vision, but because all vision in marriage should be able to find compatibility together(they must not be the same field) , they should be able to work together to finally achieve the family's vision or goal. The man should be the head and the woman his equal help, working to make it a reality. So the helpmeet title is because the Man in the marriage context is the head of the house, hence the title differentiation for better roles understanding and action.
But the man is also to help the woman. There is no way he wouldn't be of help to the woman and be a complete head. Just like the students go to submit and ask questions to the teacher, the woman will also need the man's help in helping her actualize her full self through working out God's purpose for her life, which will ultimately benefit the merged visions.
