Cooperation: A Key Ingredient for a Happy Marriage 

Whether married or in a relationship, it’s important for couples to work together as one unit if they want their marriage to last. Here’s how cooperation between you and your partner can help strengthen the bond of your union: 

  1. Support Each Other Through Difficult Times 

During challenging times, spouses should lean on each other for support rather than competing against each other. Even though couples may sometimes disagree over certain issues, being able to talk things through calmly and rationally is key when trying to get back on the same page after an argument. Supporting each other during difficult times will make any couple stronger in the end.

During difficult times or when you are having challenges, don’t blame each other! You are already going through some difficulties, don’t add more to them but rather harness the power of agreement and pray together! You’ve got to cooperate! 

Mat 18:19 (MSG)
When two of you get together on anything at all on earth and make a prayer of it, my Father in heaven goes into action.

2. Get Involved In Each Other’s Tasks 

Couples should collaborate with each other on both domestic tasks like cooking dinner, taking care of children, or doing chores around the house and also spend time enjoying activities together such as going out for date nights every week/month or watching movies/shows that interest them both at home etc. This type of involvement not only shows appreciation toward one another but leads to a better understanding of what matters most for them. You must be deliberate in cooperating with one another and shut out the devil from your marriage!

3. Set Aside Disagreements For Mutual Goal Accomplishment 

Do not allow continuous petty disagreements to mess up your family and financial goals. You don’t have to reply to every statement made by your lover or spouse and you don’t have to answer every question bluntly! Remember what the scripture says about soft answers?

Pro 15:1 (KJV)
A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.

Take a look at The Message Translation

Pro 15:1 (MSG)
A gentle response defuses anger, but a sharp tongue kindles a temper-fire.

Ensure that your overall goal is not tampered with and that no strife or animosity is retained.

Cooperate together at all times so you that can enjoy yourselves together!
