DID YOU KNOW GOD’S GREATEST COMMAND TO THE HUSBAND?
Do you know
that God has what He requires from the husband?
Do you know
the first question God would ask you as a husband when you stand before Him in
judgment?
Do you know
His greatest command to you as a married man who professes to Love God?
It is ‘Husbands,
love you wives even as Christ loves the church’ Eph 5:25
In Christ’s
love to the church
It is
sacrificial; He gave His life for the church (you don’t have the right to place
yourself before you wife the day you got married, you must put her first in all
things)
It is
forbearing and forgiving: He forgave the church over and over again and (you
don’t complain and keep counting her wrongs, pray for her, learn to forbear and
forgive, you need this grace especially)
It is
everlasting: He never stops loving the church and would never divorce the
Church from Himself (cancel divorce from you mind, your love for your wife must
last forever for it to be approved of God)
Your love
for your wife is a divine obligation, and it must be sacrificial, forbearing
and forgiving and most importantly, enduring.
When you are
faced with the desire to follow other women, when what you see in skirts
trigger you, remember the Lord’s command ‘Husbands, love you wives’
Love your
wife in a million ways and never love a million ladies in one way.
If God asks
you, ‘how did you loved your wife?’ what would be your reply, prepare to reply
that because He’ll surely ask you when you get to Him.
Love your
wife to impress God and you can impress God by loving her the way Christ loves
the church.
God bless
you
