Hi.. It completely depends upon on what grounds your marriage took place.
We as a society is still in a state of transition, from single bread earner (male) household to multiple bread earner (male/female) household.
Some wo/men are raised with a mindset of gender specific roles in a marriage and it may take a lot to change their mindset unless the environment pushes them to change, like loss of job/livelihood due to disability/disease/death/recession/etc.
If this is the case, you will have to find other ways to increase/secure your finances by creating alternate sources of income (investments/stock/rental/etc).
Please speak to your partner about it and look for a joint session with a Psychologist. An early professional intervention is always better.
Next Steps
Seek professional help.

1. Have a open talk with your wife regard again.
2. Try to understand her constraints going for a job.
3. Try to explain about your job security as well.
4. Try to understand her financial future plans.
5. Pls don't try to force or convince her to go for a job. The decision should happen naturally based on the detailed conversation.
