Whoever chooses to break the laws
of life only ends up breaking himself. There is therefore serious wisdom in
obeying the laws of life to obtain the desired results. We will continue to
examine the laws that make marriage work.
Law of CHANGE: Some things must
remain constant. Love, honor and respect must not change though body shape and
status may change. You must change your mind to accommodate the changes that
life will bring to each of you as you grow older.
Law of SPACE: Practice giving each
other space regularly. Give yourselves some space by both of you going
somewhere on vacation. Let your spouse be alone sometimes. You are married
permanently but practice the law of space as this will help you remain fresh
and creative.
Law of QUALIFICATION: Every high
office has qualifications. In the same way, the position of a husband or wife
has qualifications that each must strive to attain to.
Most marriages that need a lot of
counseling are marriages of born again people that do not have a Christian
marriage and unbelievers that want to have a Christian marriage. Don’t let your
spouse enjoy staying outside. You can stay in a wrong marriage for a lifetime
but you will be giving wrong templates to your children. Every male starts as a
son in a home and grows to become a man, husband and then father. Family
headship influences the society in many ways. Marriage is designed for a man
that knows God. A man must be in a condition to hear the assignment of God for
his family. If a woman finds it difficult to follow a man, there may be error
in the choice of marriage partner. If your husband is not spiritual enough,
allow him to come under strong leadership and grow. Most marital problems will
be solved if there is another person to tell you what to do and both of you
agree to obey. Allow the man to be the head that God designed him to be; once
you see the head, just follow. The children will be the beneficiary of such
headship. The man must ensure that he grows to be a man that is worthy of
followership. You are supposed to take your family from glory to glory.
Prayer: Lord, let your hand rest on my life to become a doer of these principles
and get God’s kind of marriage and home in my life. Anoint me for these kingdom
patterned experiences in Jesus’ name. Amen.
