Upgrade your marriage

“Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.” 
1 Peter 3:7(KJV)

According to our opening scripture, if you investigate, you will notice that the Pastor of every church that is growing well in this world has a healthy relationship with his wife. This is because if you don't give honour to your wife, the Bible says your prayers will be hindered, and if your prayers are hindered, your progress will be stunted.

If you are reading this devotional today and you are nursing an offence in your heart against your wife or your husband as a child of God, I encourage you to be a doer of the Word of God and reconcile, because not doing the Word of God is rebellion.

The Bible says in 1 Samuel 15:23, “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry…” What is rebellion? Rebellion is the conscious or unconscious rejection of divine instruction.  Therefore, if you know that you have been rebelling against the Word of God in this area, I encourage you to repent and accept God’s counsel for the upgrade of your life.

INSTRUCTION
Please make intercession for marriages that are having challenges today.

For further study read: 
1 Peter 3:1-7, Ephesians 5:22-25,33, Colossians 3:18, Titus 2:3-6, James 3:16.

DOING THE WORD
If there is strife in your marriage, please make the first move for peace whether or not you are the one at fault.
