Is Your Spouse Also Your Friend

In a healthy marriage, lovers are also good friends.  Too often people marry before establishing a good friendship with one another.  Sometimes we are lead by our exciting feelings of love and passion before we take the time to develop a deep friendship with one another.  Developing a friendship involves listening, sharing and showing understanding for the other's likes and dislikes.  Building a friendship takes time, but it makes a love relationship much deeper and even more satisfying.

As the young woman spoke about Solomon, in Song of Solomon 5:16 "His mouth is sweetness itself; he is desirable in every way.  Such, O women of Jerusalem, is my lover, my friend
The Song of Solomon is traditionally considered to be a love poem.  God used marriage as an illustration of Christ's love for the church.

Achieving Oneness Through Marriage

The union of a husband and wife merges two persons into one.  Oneness in marriage does not mean losing your identity in the personality of the other.  It simply means caring for your spouse as you care for yourself.    We are to help the other spouse become all he or she can be and learning to anticipate his or her needs.

Ephesians 5:31-33 "A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.  This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one.  So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband."

"Newlyweds" Need a Strong Start

Are you newly married?  Are you aware of the Law of Moses?  God used Moses and created the Law of Moses, which gave much protection to marriages and to women. 

Newly married couples are to remain together during their first year.  Why?  This is to help avoid placing an excessive burden upon a new untested relationship, giving it a chance to mature and strengthen before confronting it with numerous responsibilities.  Let your marriage grow strong by protecting your relationship from the many outside pressures and distractions, especially in the beginning.

Here is what Moses said; Deuteronomy 24:5 "A newly married man must not be drafted into the army or be given any other official responsibilities.  He must be free to spend one year at home, bringing happiness to the wife he has married."

Schedule a regular time to spend with your spouse.   Communicate often, don't let even good things take a higher priority in your marriage.

In The Beginning...

In the beginning, the Lord God said, " It is not good for the man to be alone.  I will make a helper who is just right for him." 

God chose, to make her from the man's flesh and bone.  In doing so, he illustrated for us that in marriage the man and woman symbolically are united into one.  If you are already married or planning to be married, are you willing to keep the commitment that makes the two of you one?

Your goal in marriage should be operating in oneness.

Scripture says "This one is bone from my bone, and flesh from my flesh!  She will be called woman, because she was taken from man."
Read Genesis 2:18-24

Marriage Ain't No Joke -

Hey Married Couples : )

I was just thinking about marriage this morning. My thoughts lead me to the fact that marriage ain't no joke! It's like a roller coaster {ups, downs and loopdi loops}.

My hubby and I have been on this wonderful roller coaster ride for (27) years now.

Let me tell you all, I love my sweet hubby dearly and I know he loves me just as much. Now with that being said, it's still been a bumpy ride (let alone the fact that I hate roller coasters...LOL), yet in the same breathe I'd like to say that I would not just throw in the towel and give up on my wonderful and handsome man that God has for me.

The Bible says;“Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.” Ephesians 5:22

I know it gets hard sometimes, but I also know that I must choose to do what is right. And if God said it, then IT'S RIGHT no if, ands or buts about it!!!

On the other side of the coin the Bible says; “Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it” Ephesians 5:25

Whether or not my hubby chooses to obey God's Word (is on him. He will have his judgement day, as will I). Regardless of his reactions, I will still be obedient to God no matter what!!!

Because God did not say, hey Lady Bee if your husband does not obey My Word or you get sick and tired of his mess, then you can curse him out, pack his stuff and kick him to the curb. (Hint, hint my beautiful Sisters). And my dear Brothers, reverse this scenario because the SAME thing goes for you too.

Fellas, remember God also said, “Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will cling to his wife: and they will be one flesh.” Genesis 2:24

So, that means...MAN UP!!! Stop standing behind your Mama's skirt. She cannot be of ONE FLESH with you like God said, that would be only your WIFE...re-read Genesis 2:24 until you get it in your spirit, hide it in your heart and also remember, if God said it, then IT'S RIGHT no if, ands or buts about it!!!

This is not about "Burger King" so you can have it your way, sorry that's the wrong King. (Another hint for my sweet sisters, this goes for us too precious Queens).

Sweet Peeps, lets work harder to get it right. Do not be defeated by giving up and giving in to satan who would just love to come into our homes to cause separation, division and DESTROY the very foundation that God has meant for good. Do not let the enemy KILL the love and compassion for one another that God has so richly implanted within us.

Tell your Handsome Hubby or your Beautiful Wife, that as of today you are going to love them unconditionally as God loves us!!!

STAND UP STAY STRONG SPEAK LIFE SEEK GOD IN PRAYER


Hug & Love On Your Sweet Mate Today!
