Covenant Marriages / Library

A man who deserves the praise and respect of his wife will most certainly manifest these qualities: HE TRULY LOVES HIS WIFE MORE THAN ANY OTHER HUMAN. Your wife is next to your heart after God; treat her with all the affection she deserves. “Husbands love your wives” is a command in Ephesians 5:25.   HE IS NOT A MUMMY'S BOY. I don't know what some men are doing with marriage. A man who still runs to his momma for supper and can't make sound decisions without seeking his mother’s approval is a...

In our church we had a Bible study series which was entitled “we are better together”. This saying is so true and especially for the marriage institution. While many are blowing trumpets showing off the benefits and allures of singlehood, it is clear that the benefits of togetherness far outweigh those of singleness. Even the creator of the universe declared that “it is not good for the man to be alone”. Genesis 2:18 - The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper...

One of the greatest needs of a real husband is an abundance of peace in the home and especially being at peace with his wife. This is the kind of environment in which marriage thrives and families make progress. After a hard day’s work with all the challenges and stresses of the contemporary world, a husband looks forward to meeting his wife at home and enjoying some form of relief from the one he loves. Peace for a husband is among his top ten needs. It is such an important element...

I usually imagine that wives find it exciting showing off their husbands and especially letting their friends, colleagues and peers know that they have a healthy and happy marriage. We as practicing husbands should provide them with the platform by being available to be seen with them in public. Happiness for a wife cannot be hidden; it is just out there in the open. However, it is no secret that many husbands spend a lot of their time outside their homes - in bars, clubs and other social places to escape...

Husbands world over have been faced with moments of bewilderment when they see their wives unhappy and can’t really point to the source of their trouble. This is unfortunate because then the husband has no clue what he should do to get his wife back to happiness and also restore normal relations. The saying below so true and I quote: “Behind every angry woman, stands a man who absolutely has no idea what he did wrong” During a recent husbands fellowship we discussed this matter at length and reached a consensus that...

I do not know who wrote this, but it sounds real. Marriage is God given and we are required to make every effort to live in peace with our spouse and be a blessing to them.  When we fail in our responsibilities, the consequences can be lifelong. Ephesians 5:22-23  22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. A DIVORCED SINGLE MOTHER WROTE I am writing to...

A friend shared this with me and I thought it’s good to share it with you too. I agree with the sentiments though I have altered some to correct grammar and also fit in with scripture. Secret no 1 The person you married or you intend to marry has a weakness because every human being has a weakness. Even if you call her angel, she is still human. Only God is perfect. So if you focus only on your spouse's weaknesses you can't get the best out of their strength. You are...

God made marriage as the most beautiful institution on planet earth. Any attempts to compare it to anything else would clearly be unfruitful. No human being however great or powerful has the ability to come up with something better or an alternative and that’s why we say that marriage was made in heaven. God designed marriage to be the place of greatest comfort and security for the husband, wife and children. He looked at the man and realized he was not fulfilled on His own. Therefore God in His infinite wisdom...
