UCB Word For Today Devotional For January 27, 2023 : Topic - Help for your marriage

- ,
--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

Help for your marriage
26 JANUARY 2023

‘Spouting off before listening to the facts is both shameful and foolish.’

Proverbs 18:13 NLT
Someone said, ‘Getting married is like buying something you have admired for ages in a shop window. You love it – but when you get it home, it doesn’t always go with everything!’ The Bible gives us three words that are essential to building a happy marriage: ‘Live in…harmony’ (Romans 15:5 NLT). That means doing these three things:

1) Keep an open mind. The Bible says, ‘Spouting off before listening to the facts is both shameful and foolish.’ So don’t form your response while your husband or wife is still talking. And never become so entrenched in your position that you’re unwilling to consider your spouse’s viewpoint. Listening is about connecting and acknowledging where the other person is coming from. ‘Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests…take an interest in others’ (Philippians 2:3-4 NLT).

2) Learn to laugh at yourself. ‘A cheerful heart brings a smile to your face; a sad heart makes it hard to get through the day’ (Proverbs 15:13 MSG). When you’re experiencing money woes, family problems, illness, or plain old exhaustion, humour can ease the tension and help restore your perspective.

3) Eliminate the ‘D’ word from your vocabulary. Although God permits divorce under certain circumstances, it’s never His ideal. Like one couple who worked through their marriage troubles said, ‘We’re glad we didn’t give up during the difficult years. We hung in long enough to realise that it really can get better with time.’ When you commit to work on your relationship, no matter how things ultimately end up, you will never regret your efforts.

Exodus 4-6, Matthew 14:22-36
