Three Ways To Glorify God In Marriage

Three Ways To Glorify God In Marriage

Marriage is the school of love, we can get the true meaning of love in 1 Corinthians chapter 13:4-7 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. There are so many circumstances that we meet along the way if we are in the bond of matrimony, but what’s important is we always grip the promises of God every now and then, and enjoy the journey of marriage with God-centered relationship, we should always remain faithful and committed to the Lord no matter what happens, because God is faithful and He will put into completion whatever He started to us. How we love our spouses is the reflection of how we love God. “However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband “Ephesians 5:13.
Here are the following ways:

1.  Love God above all things, make Jesus as number one priority, in the bible it states that God is Love, from (1 John 4:8  Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love) if the relationship was broken it’s because they forgot to love God above their relationship. When we love God more than we love our spouses that’s the time we glorify Him, if we are in love to God we are so frightened to do wicked deeds that can disappoint to God. If God is holy then we should be holy in our thoughts, in words and in deeds, Romans 12:2   Do not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Let God manifests in our lives by obeying His decrees from the bible.  
   

2.  Respect is the number one need that the husbands want from their wives when we respect our husband then that’s the start of our submission to them. From the Bible. Ephesians 5:24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands. When we have respect for our spouses we have a self-control to utter heartless words that can make our spouses hurt. So in that sense, we have a harmonious and peaceful relationship if we know how to respect our spouses. If God is the prince of peace, therefore, a relationship with God-centered relationship is very peaceful because we respect each other.  Let be our husbands be the head and the king of the family, because God gave them the authority to do so. From the Bible Ephesians 5:23 for the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself it’s Savior.
   

3.  Honor God, in everything that we do, always put God first, let our marriage will bring back the glory and honor to God, every day is a brand new day to experience God’s grace. Honoring God is to keep the holy Sabbath day holy, this is the third command in the ten commandments of God given to Moses, seeking His words through reading the bible and meditate it day and night is an act of obeying God’s instructions, and communicating God with a sincere prayers with a contrite heart, in quiet moments, is the best way to deepen our relationship towards God. When we have a relationship with God then that’s the time that we always obey His commands from the Bible. Let our marriage be the perfect example of genuine love and follow the standards of marriage instruction as husband and wife taken from the bible Colossians 3:18-19 Wives, submit to your husbands, as fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.
