How To Honor Each Other In Marriage

Reading Time: 1 minute

The issue of honor in marriage is critical. A marriage where there is no honor is no order. The wife does what she likes and the husband does what he likes. The marriage is not governed by any rules. Christ is not at the center of the home.

We must understand that God instituted marriage. He is the one who said it is not good that man be alone.

He has an original plan and purpose for all marriages. Each marriage is unique. Each home has its own unique pattern. Each marriage has its own unique place in the heart of the Father.

Honor is thus a way to invite the Lordship of Jesus Christ into our lives.

Couples must learn the honor code at all cost. Without honor, nothing will work in the home.

Here are three major areas you honor your spouse

1. Honour your spouse by giving preference to Jesus in your marriage

Giving preference to Jesus is giving Him the leadership in your home. Let Him take the lead. It is seeking to find out what Jesus would do in every situation.

2. Making sure that the marriage works.

It includes doing everything possible to see that you forgive yourselves.

3. Making sure that you are patient with each other.

Everything in marriage has two sides to it.

In anger, calm down.

May God bless our marriages!
