The Home - Responsibility of Husband and Wife

A man once said I have been unlucky in both of my marriages, my first wife left and the second won’t leave.

If you say God has disappointed you, tell me who do you go to? If you know Jesus nothing can take you away from him.

Colossians 3:19, The bible says love your wife and do not be bitter against them. This means women can naturally do things that are bitter but the bible says love your wife and do not be bitter against them. Don’t be harsh to your wife, avoid harsh words when you speak to your wife. Never say to your wife you are just like your mother. Even if you see the signs do not say to your wife. Never say she doesn’t think, never say that she is stupid. The Bible says love your wife and don’t be angry or else you say words that you will live to regret. Women are not always evil.

Say something nice to your wife, when she’s just finished dressing, say you are gorgeous, I don’t feel complete without you, when you have issues just say you sorry. Strong men say sorry to their wives, weak men find it hard and make bold faces.

1. A man doesn’t love his wife because she merits it. – God expect you to love her if she is your wife. Every man have a commandment from God to love his wife.

2. Husband are not commanded to make their wife to submit to them. God says love her cause this will make her submit to you. You can’t force a your wife to submit to you. She has the will power, your wife must choose to submit. Our job is to love them. Beating your wife won’t make her submit to you. Ephesians 5:22 "Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord". When a woman submits to her husband, she is submitting to God. God has not asked wives to submit to their husband because they deserve it but you have to cause God wisdom says submit. Fire for fire approach won’t work but will only tear down your home. The bible says: A wise woman build her home. Marry a man that is easy for you to submit to. It might be hard to submit to a man that maltreats you but submit but God is watching. 

3. Wife don’t instruct your husband, direct and commanding him – don’t talk to your husband the way the mother does, you can only suggest.

4. Become the woman God wants you to be and you become the woman he wants you to be, it helps him to love you the more. Do what he likes you to do and he will love you the more.1 Peter  3:7 "Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered" If you love your wife you will also do the house chaos. There is nothing like a work for women at home, you both have the work to do. The same way God sees you that’s how God sees you. Above every other thing you have to maintain harmony so that your prayers will not hinder your progress, hindered prayers makes the family vulnerable. Ephesians  5:33 "Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband" All husband are entitled to their wife respect. All wives are entitled to their husband love. Husband, no matter how you wife treats you, YOU HAVE TO LOVE HER. You both know life is an adventure of forgiveness. If God forgives you so much, you have no right not to forgive each other.
