RESPECT & SECURITY IN MARRIAGE

CLICK HERE TO LISTEN:
RESPECT & SECURITY IN MARRIAGE


When it comes to marriage, Ephesians 5:33 is a powerful verse that is often over-looked.  

It says…
“Never the less let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.”

It really boils down to two words:  SECURITY and RESPECT

Hello, I’m Deborah Ross!

Husbands, the one thing your WIFE needs most is SECURITY!

What kind of security?

All kinds!  Like, … protection… financial peace… sexual purity… and most importantly… knowing that you love and trust God!

Wives,… the number one thing that your HUSBAND needs most is RESPECT!

He needs to know that you are not rolling your eyes at him… not complaining to your friends about him… not bossing him around… and not putting him down!

Did you know that your husband will give you security … as you give him respect?

Likewise husband, your wife will give you respect as you give her security.

So,… which one of you???… will go first?

Submitting One to Another

CLICK HERE TO LISTEN:




SUBMITTING ONE TO ANOTHER


When it comes to marriage, Ephesians 5:21 tells us to submit ourselves one to another in the fear of the Lord.

Hello, I’m Deborah Ross!

I think women – as a whole – have a fear of the word “submit.”

Perhaps, because we perceive it as being “less than” in the eyes of our husband.

On the other hand, some husbands take the whole submission thing way out of context, using God’s word as an excuse to rule with an iron fist!

So, what does God’s word really mean when it says “submit?”

It means SUBMIT TO EACH OTHER!

A WAY OF SAYING:
*I value you!
*I value your needs!
*I value your opinions!
*I value your dreams!
*And, … I value OUR MARRIAGE!

You see, submitting is just a value system.  Nothing to fear.  And, certainly not an iron fist.

Will you put submitting to one another … into practice – TODAY?
