Dear father, do not exasperate your child. In other words, do not intensely frustrate your child. If you keep doing something the child doesn’t like that is meant to fulfil your selfish need instead of the good of all parties involved, stop it. You represent Christ in the home. Be careful to do that work diligently.
If you don’t hate your body but love and cherish it, why don’t you love your wife so well that you’ll give her everything she needs, including your body and affection? God knew a time would come when believing husbands may falter in these things. That is why He institutionalised this command in the scriptures.
No man on this Earth, no matter where he finds himself, can live up to God’s standards if he does not bow to the majesty of Christ. And it becomes more dangerous when such a man is married. Why? Because it affects not only his life but also his family.
The Bible says wives must be submissive to their own husbands. And that command has no conditions attached to it. In this case, whether your husband is good or bad, once you are a Christian wife to him, you must submit to him. That is simple!
For you to become one flesh with your wife, you need intimacy. That intimacy is exclusive to God, and it requires privacy. Prepare for your marriage, and never hesitate to ask God for help as you prepare to marry.
You may have determined in your heart not to repeat your dad’s mistakes, which is good. But it won’t happen by merely making that decision in your mind. You need to work it out. Lead your home. Let your house serve the Lord–from yourself to your littlest kid.
Since the Canaan got cursed by Noah way back in Genesis 10, all his descendants formed part of the curse. God, who knew Jesus would come through a woman, chose to forbid the Israelites from marrying any Canaanite descendant all throughout the Old Testament because He wanted to preserve the holy Seed of Christ flowing through Abraham’s family line, especially Judah.
Make your marital rest place more than merely a house but a home. And as a spinster, it’s less about depending on a man to come and marry you but more about how to obtain wisdom to build your home with your man in the future.
International Women’s Day comes off each year, and it’s such a special day to celebrate women. On behalf of The Bible Daily Network, I want to honour all women who have laboured and continue to help make this world a better place. Here is an open letter to all women to celebrate this special day.
We must be careful about the advice we give others when they come to us for help. You might be breaching God’s rule when you tell people, especially couples, to separate. There is a solution to every problem. So make up your mind never to serve as a reference point to make someone disobey God’s principles.
You shouldn’t give yourself to everything and everybody while leaving your family aside. Sometimes, withdraw from all things that take your time to spend quality time thinking about making Christ known in your family‘s daily activities.
Why did God kill Onan for spilling his semen on the floor? You may have asked yourself this question whenever you read that verse. Right? Today, there’s an answer for you in this article.
