How to Have a Harmonious Marriage

How to Have a Harmonious Marriage

The Number One Problem in Marriages—Strife
Harmony at home is one of the greatest blessings in life. It’s also one of the easiest blessings to lose if we don’t make a decision to do all we can to nurture our marriage relationship.

From the Scriptures you can learn the proper attitude about marriage: “Let marriage be held in honor (esteemed worthy, precious, of great price and especially dear) in all things. And thus let the marriage bed be undefiled (kept undishonored); for God will judge and punish the unchaste [all guilty of sexual vice] and adulterous” (Hebrews 13:4, The Amplified Bible).

When a couple ceases to view their marriage as precious and dear, they can become selfish and contentious with one another. Left uncorrected this attitude will lead to full-blown strife and can eventually lead to things such as sexual sin, divorce, physical injury

GOD CARES

 

Luke 12:6-7

 "Are not five sparrows sold for two copper coins? And not one of them is forgotten

before God.  But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore;

you are of more value than many sparrows.

God cares for the safety of his creation- man, beast and flowers etc (Matt 6:26, etc.)

God sees the sparrow fall to the ground, and God sees when a hair falls from the head of one of His children. When He protects His own, He protects them down to the individual hairs (Luke 21:18). There is no need for us to fear when God is exercising such wonderful care over us.

It did not cost much to purchase sparrows in the market. If we compare these verses with Luke 12:6, we discover that sparrows were so cheap that the dealer threw in an extra one! Yet the Father knows when a sparrow falls to the ground; and the Father is there. To God, we are of greater value than many sparrows.

Job 38:41
He giveth (his food) to the young ravens which cry" (Ps 147:9).
   
Matt 6:30 - TLB

And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and gone tomorrow, won't he more surely care for you, O men of little faith?

God cares for man even for the very little details of our lives.

Some people erroneously believe that God is too busy taking care of other ‘big and important matters’ than to be interested in the little problems they are facing.

God said in Luke 21:18, Even the hairs of our head are numbered - not "counted" as in a total, but numbered individually!

It may be a quarrel with a friend, your phone’s problem, your lack of body-cream, or the small pimples on your face. No matter how trivial it sounds, if it troubles you, then God wants to take care of it!

 Why Do Christians Suffer If God Cares for Us?

But, some say, if God cares for us, why are we persecuted and put to death?

No, God does not wish us to be in troubles, but he foretold prophetically that we would be persecuted for His name sake, and having successfully endured it we will receive the crown of life (James 1:12). Satan (the god of this current evil world) is the one doing that just to discourage us, Nevertheless we have victory over him in Christ Jesus, We only need to hold on to our faith with all patience.. God cares for us and loves us

Does God care for unbelievers also?

Yes God cares for unbelievers also, Jesus said in Matt 5:45 that God makes his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

 Also John 3:16 says for God so loved (cared for) the world (sinners/unbelievers) that he Gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish… But the fact is that unbelievers remain in an unsecure (doomed/perishing) state until they become believers (accept Jesus Christ). So even though God cares for unbelievers, it is wise to repent before it is too late.
   

God cares for the Old Testament believers so why won’t he care for New Testament saints

Not only did God feed the Jews "miracle bread" each morning, but He also kept their clothes from wearing out and their feet from swelling. The three pressing questions of life for most people are, "What shall we eat? What shall we drink? What shall we wear?" (Matt 6:25-34) and the Lord met all these needs for His people for forty years.

2 Cor 3:9-10

For if the ministration of condemnation [be] glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.  For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.

He careth for you." Why should you have anxiety for yourself

"Casting all your care upon Him; for He cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7, NKJV).

God knows your needs

 "For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things" (Matt 6:32, NKJV).

God can provide through any means he wishes

God doesn't miraculously deliver bread, water, and clothing to our front doors each day, but He does give us jobs and the ability to get wealth (Deut 8:18) so we can purchase what we need. God can meet any need with or without human means. He is all sufficient (El-shaddai).

Conclusion

Beloved, Over-anxiety is useless, let us cast all our cares (small or big) on Jesus for he careth for us 

       
1 Peter 5:7 - AMP

7 Casting the  whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns,  once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully.
   
1 Peter 5:7 - Weymouth
 Throw the whole of your anxiety upon Him, because He Himself cares for you.
   
1 Peter 5:7 - TLB
 Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you. 

Ps 55:22 – KJV
 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
