To see potential is a great good, but the downside is the propensity to compare reality with the expectation. This is especially harmful in marriage if a woman tries to show her husband his potential in all the wrong ways, such as comparison or suggestions for change.

Each chapter explores a case study of a biblical character's life, an action that gained him authority, an area of vulnerability, and the most memorable moment this person wore the mantle. There will also be a pattern for prayer, questions from which a woman can build the blueprint for repentance, restoration and declaration. There is personal application in the form of Putting Your Words to Work, a written vision declaration, and a Seal it with a Gift with practical ways to gently yet generously introduce revelation of a husband's skills and abilities through a tangible gift.
