HUSBAND, HONOUR YOUR WIFE
Men are not women and women are not men. God made men and women different for a reason. The sooner we accept this, the sooner our marriages will be peaceful. God made women to be weaker than men for submission to be possible.
FAMILY FRIDAY
Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heir together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered – 1 Peter 3:7
Men are not women and women are not men. God made men and women different for a reason. The sooner we accept this, the sooner our marriages will be peaceful. God made women to be weaker than men for submission to be possible.
However, men should not abuse this fact. Their strength was not given for a woman’s oppression but her protection. Women are weaker than, but not inferior to men. They are heirs together with men of the same grace of Eternal Life. As a result, it is fitting and proper for a man to honour his wife.
When you abuse your wife, it hinders your prayers. You can’t abuse your wife and be at peace with God. He’ll resist you because of your arrogance before your wife. To defend her, He’ll humble you by turning a deaf ear to your prayers. Your wife is the key to answered prayers and a good life. Honour her and God will honour you. Glory to God!
PRAYER
Father in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I pray for husbands all over the world. May they discover how much You love their wives. May they not abuse their wives and anger you. May they honour their wives and be at peace with you. Amen.
