Building Blocks of a Lasting Marriage 2

I will continue where I stopped two days ago. Previously, I wrote about the fact that God gave every woman the ability and capacity to be a builder. 

Our text in Proverbs 14:1 KJ V says, 

“Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands’. 

We also talked about how we need to build according to the pattern.

Ex 25:40 And look that thou make them after their pattern, which was shewed thee in the mount. 

God is the architect, He gives us the blueprint of what we should build, the material to use in building, and how we should build.  It is building according to the pattern that makes us wise women who build our homes.

Today, we will be looking at how we should build our homes and families.

1. We should build with prayers

 Jud 1:20-But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, 

Our homes and families have different aspects just like any building has different sections and areas like the sitting room, the bathroom, the bedroom, the kitchen etc.  Each of these different component of the building have different functionalities and you cannot replace them with each other.  In the same way, the different aspects of our homes and families need to be built up through prayers. 

You must build every aspect of your home, marriage, and family with prayers. As a woman, you are not permitted to joke with prayers. Pray for each child. In fact, praying for them starts from conception. And the best way to pray for your children is in tongues as the Holy Spirit grants you utterance.  You pray for and about your spouse and every detail of his life. It is an assignment.  Your husband’s success should be your prayer burden. Pray for yourself because you are also part of that building. It is full-time work. There are so many aspects of your home and marriage that you build up through prayers.

2. We should build with the Word

Luk 6:47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: 

Luk 6:48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. 

The word of God is our only guarantee of a strong and solid foundation for our homes, marriage, and families. The infallible word of God is what ensures that what we are building stands the test of time and can weather the storms of life. So that whatever beats against our family and marriage, we will still be standing.

When we take time to build intentionally with fervent and continuous prayers and the Word of God we are wise. Don’t let us be like the foolish builder in Luke 6:49. Let’s learn to build according to the pattern God has shown us.

It is my prayer that we will be wise indeed and that the Lord will give us strength and Grace to carry on His mandate for our lives as women.

How To Exercise Dominion In Marriage

How To Exercise Dominion In Marriage

Reading Time: 2 minutes

COUPLES –

God created you to exercise dominion and authority on earth. It is not right for the one who is to exercise dominion to be dominated. You are to be the man and woman God created you to be.

All such things as insecurities, low self-esteem, rejection, condemnation, guilt, approval addiction, and fears, are all an attempt of the enemy to steal your authority from you. He attempts to make you laden with a poor image of yourself. That devil is a liar.

You have what it takes to have dominion. It was inbuilt into you at creation. Every source of insecurity is giving way right now. You cannot be battling with such feelings and expect to take charge of your life.

You take charge of your life by first knowing and believing what God says about you.

God says;

You are the head and not the tail.

You are acceptable in the beloved.

You are the apple of His eyes.

You can do all things through Christ that strengthens you.

Ye are gods and children of the Highest.

You have been made the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

 All these and many other promises you have to believe. You are secured in who God says you are. Your approval is not based on your past, who rejected you, your performance, or what you did or didn’t do.

God wants you to enjoy life and have life in abundance. Having life in abundance is being in dominion and exercising your God-given authority, where you are not intimidated by anything or anybody.

Your relationships are good. You are trusting and hoping in the Lord. You have faith in your heavenly Father that He loves you and so he is mindful of you.

Walk in dominion and God bless your marriage.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
God’s vision over my life will not be prolonged.

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Lord, this year, your vision for my life will speak!

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
This vision–message is a witness pointing to what’s coming. It aches for the coming––it can hardly wait! And it doesn’t lie. If it seems slow in coming, wait. It’s on its way. It will come right on time. Habakkuk 2:3 MSG

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Write down plans for the coming months 

BIBLE READING FOR THE DAY
Psalms 17, 35

The God That Does The Impossible

The God That Does The Impossible

Reading Time: 2 minutes

COUPLES –

We serve a God who delights in doing the things that we think are impossible. We call Him the God of the possibilities. 

What is it in your life that seems to look impossible? What is that difficult thing that has defied all solutions? What is that issue? Is it barrenness or joblessness? Is it a mountain of debt or bills to pay? Is it a financial need and you are tired of the same level?

Are you on the same spot for years? Rejoice, for we serve the God of all possibilities. He is coming through for you.

The bible says:

‘For with God nothing shall be impossible’ Luke 1:37(KJV) 

It is an absolute statement. Nothing shall be impossible, not with the government or with your rich uncle but with God. Do you have this God in your life? Then be rest assured.

And he said, the things which are impossible with men are possible with God”. – Luke 18:27 (KJV) 

You have to believe God’s word. He said those things that are impossible with men are possible with God. 

Your situations that are impossible are becoming possible right now. Do you believe that? 

What God wants is that you believe.

Just believe in the one He has sent. Believe in Jesus. Believe what He says he can do.

Maybe your marriage is not what you dreamt it would be like. You feel this is not what you bargained for.

All your mentors have tried talking to you and it looks like it’s over. Trust again.

For nothing shall be impossible with God. He will do the impossible

God bless your marriage

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
God has a purpose for my life. I will cooperate with that purpose

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Lord, show me what I need to know right now in my life

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. –Proverbs 3:5 (MSG)

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Read Papa Kenneth Hagin’s book on “Following God’s plan for your life”

 BIBLE READING FOR THE DAY
1 Samuel 25-27
