Where Have You Placed God in Your Marriage?

Well we know that marriage is very important to our Christian lives. God is for marriage and has left us instructions in the bible. There are so many verses that relate to what God says about marriage. I'd like to share just a few with you;

  • Genesis 2:18 And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
  • Genesis 2:21-24 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22 And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. 23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
  • Ephesians 5:23-32 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
God has told us that when we join together we just became ONE FLESH. That is pretty deep all in itself!

My brothers and sisters we must seek God and stay prayerful about our marriages. It can surely tend to be difficult from time to time! And thats not to say that divorce doesn't occur due to misunderstandings and some of our other shortcomings but, this is why we really need to let God be the center of our commitment we made one to another in the presence of God.

Pray about your marriage daily and ask the Holy Spirit to guide you both through your relationship and intimacy.

In Your Partnership in Marriage...

You deserve to be with someone who compliments you, who treats you like royalty and lifts you up with great gentleness when you are down. You could call this other person your best friend, the lover of your dreams or perhaps you already recognize them as God sees them, as your Soul Mate. The bond of matrimony is sacred, and if one partner chooses to treat you opposite from the gentle way God wants you to be loved or your partner has chosen to live as though they were single making decisions by themselves amongst other things, then this could be the time to really pray and reconsider what God has to say to you about your spouse. We always need to do our best to withstand and be quick to add to the destruction of divorce. But, at the same time we have the right to be loved and be happy. Pray for God's strength and His will to be done~

PRAY, BE STILL & WAIT ON GOD!

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

Who's The Boss?

1 Corinthians 7:3-4 (New King James Version)
Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.


Isn't this a powerful verse? I think the most beautiful part about living like this is the fact that it promotes value, selflessness, kindness, accountability and consideration.

I remember when my husband and I changed our eating habits. The main reason for the change...we wanted to be healthy, live our best years together and look our best for one another. So when I see my husband consuming too many cookies or he sees me eating something that's not good for me in mass quantity we lovingly say something. We all know this verse is referring to intimacy, but I encourage you to not limit the application of this principle to just intimacy. We are "One Flesh" and as we yield more and more to one another and God's Spirit we help each other in ways that bring blessing and longevity to our marriages. (-:
