Introduction
Many marriages today lack color because of negligence on the part of the couple. When couples take their union for granted they end up being stunted in their conjugal destiny. Any venture that is not given a serious approach will end in grievous reproach.
The institution of marriage is a long journey that can either be boring or blissful depending on how the parties involved walk. What you put into your marriage determines what you take out of it. You must be your best to get the best of your marriage.
My effort in this book is to offer the woman time-tested guidelines that will enrich her relationship and make her marriage more exciting and fulfilling. This book will bond a wife and her husband together. If you want to tighten the intimacy between you and your husband, here are the pliers and nuts to get it done.
Chapter 1
The Concept of Marriage
And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone;
I will make him an help meet for him.
Genesis 2:1
The original intent of God for marriage is companionship. Marriage is a legal platform where two individuals (man and woman) come together to share their lives and achieve their God-ordained destinies. Marriage is for two imperfect souls who are determined to work out their imperfection to obtain a perfect result.
Marriage is not meant to be managed. Marriage is ordained by God to be enjoyed and not to be endured. The world is confused about marriage, but those who understand God’s purpose for marriage have a better testimony. Marriage outside of God is a vain adventure. We live in such an instant and quick-fix society that accepting responsibility in working at what we have is like subjecting one to punishment. This makes people to rush in and out of marriage when they see the contrary because they entered into it with the wrong motives.
Marriage is good but if you don’t understand the concept, you might abuse it. It is for fellowship and relationship. It is a platform for sharing and loving. Marriage is the only licensed institution ordained by God for procreation so that His agenda can continue even to the next generation. You must sit down and work on your marriage. The attention you give to this institution will determine the success you obtain from it. Both husband and wife need to collectively work everything out together. It takes the conscious efforts of the husband and the wife to make their marriage blissful. However, one of the parties can initiate the desired change.
See your marriage as an appointment with destiny to better and not to batter the destiny of your spouse. God designed marriage to add to you and never to sap virtue out of you. Marriage is deeper than sex. You need commitment. You can’t run away from responsibilities and succeed in marriage.
Marriage is all about the content (character) inside the container (person). It is not about how well packaged the container is from the outside. See possibilities in that marriage and God will make all things possible for you. See beyond the man, see beyond the woman and see beyond your ability because God is able to make all grace abound to you if He is given the first place in your marriage. Some people fear marriage because of the lies they have believed about the institution of marriage. You need to get your perspective right and believe what God said about marriage because it is a good thing.
Whatever you see in your marriage is as conceived by you. Your thoughts and imaginations rule your life. It is what you imagine that emerges eventually.
And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they
have all one language; and this they begin to do:
and now nothing will be restrained from them,
which they have imagined to do.
Genesis 11:6
Your marriage is what you make of it. The glory of any marriage does not just begin with getting married to the right person but with being the right person. It is what you exhibit in your marriage that determines whether it works or not. The price you pay is in the challenging process of growing and stretching together as distinct individuals becoming one flesh. You must stretch to grow together.
Marriage is a life time union. You therefore need commitment. You cannot reap the benefits without accepting the responsibilities. Every admirable marriage is a product of packaging and repackaging. It took some intensive work. Both parties work together doing something; adding one thing to another to make the journey interesting.
A good marriage can never be realized by one active partner alone. It takes two to cuddle. Understand first the purpose of marriage. You were not called to marriage to have your way and oppress your spouse. You are to complement one another. If you are too lazy to work on your marriage, your relationship will suffer mishap. If you fail in marriage, I can’t guarantee you success out there in your career. It is you who will determine whether your marriage becomes glorious or injurious.
The journey of marriage is a personal race that is powered with the help of God. You cannot employ people to run your marriage irrespective of how rich and busy you claim to be. They will ruin it for you. It is a personal responsibility that demands your physical involvement. The fundamental cause of failure in marriage is lack of commitment. People threaten to divorce their spouse because they have alternatives. If you are truly committed, you will destroy other alternatives and invest all it takes into your marriage. It is lack of commitment that gets people enticed by the stranger outside.
Marriage is a commitment and not a contract. In contract, you might look out for what to grasp. But in marriage, you make up your mind to live sacrificially. You
