Daily Marriage Affirmations



Faithfulness:                      Stay faithful to your spouse. Cheating can be defined as: fantasying about the opposite sex, sharing intimate and personal details of your life with the opposite sex, and being physically intimate with the opposite sex. (Hebrews 13:4) Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
Forgiveness:                       Forgive your spouse, just as Jesus has forgiven you for your sins. Without forgiveness, you will never get past your problems. (Mark 11:25, 26) And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have aught against any; that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
Love:                                   You should love your spouse, just as Jesus loved you enough to die on the cross for your sins. When you love someone with an unconditional love, you will see what a huge difference it will make in your relationship. (John 3:16) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not parish, but have everlasting life.
Self-Control:                       Learn to control your thoughts and place your cares upon the Lord. (Proverbs 29:11) A fool uttereth all his mind; but a wise man keepeth it until afterwards.

Showing your Husband Respect

Image
If you ask your Husband what he wants the most from you, chances are he will say, "Respect"! In Ephesians 5:33 apostle Paul encourages Husbands to love their wives and wives to respect their husbands. Paul knew that husbands need to be reminded that their wife should love and respect them. Could we as wives slip out of respecting our husbands and begin nagging and focusing on their weaknesses? Respect is what a husband wants; it's what a marriage needs. Wives who show their husband respect is allowing her Husband to become all that he ought to be. To understand how a wife is supposed to treat her husband, read Ephesians 5:33. "Let the wife see that she respects and reverences her husband [that she notices him, regards him, honors him, prefers him, venerates and esteems him; and that she defers him, praises him. loves and admires him exceedingly]." Look again at the verse, consider each phrase and relate it to how you treat your Husban

Fulfilling Sexual Intimacy in Marriage

To have a great marriage, you must remain sexually active with your Spouse! Do you know that many marital problems can be related to not having your needs met sexually? Most couples face the frustration of having one spouse with a consistently stronger sex drive than the other . The Bible tells us how we can manage our sex lives in 1 Corinthians 7:3-5 The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise, the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. The verse states that couples should make love whenever the other Spouse wants to have sex. That means even if you are not in the mood at the

Loving your Spouse Unconditionally

Loving your Spouse Unconditionally Now that you have been married for a few months, have you been asking yourself what happened to my fairy tale?  Almost every woman wants the fairy tale to continue after the wedding, but reality sets in after financial problems arrive, small disagreements or everyday life happens.  When these things happen we begin noticing our Spouse's weaknesses. You start asking yourself, "Where is the person that I married and what happened to my perfect marriage"? After months of being married to your Spouse reality sets in, and you begin to notice some of your Spouse's weaknesses. It's easy to begin doubting your marriage and to start thinking that you could have made a mistake.  These kind of thoughts can be dangerous, because once you allow negative thinking to enter your mind, you are opening the door to temptation.  The enemy loves it when you start doubting your marriage, so do not allow it to happen. When you f
