Has your husband ever told you that you are not talking to him well? It is either he says you speak in a disrespectful manner or you are not just logical.

My own husband used to tell me that often. I used to wonder how best to speak to him. My own husband is very, very intelligent, coupled with the fact that he is a strong choleric. You really have to make a lot of sense to get his attention.

To prove a point is a very bad move because it will not just work. So I quit trying to make a point.

I discovered a secret that has helped me and I believe will help every woman out there. I am not talking about remote controlling your husband to do as you say, but to have regards for what you say.

Your husband will respect what you say more when your words are weighty and carry power. You know in the world, the wives do charms so that their husbands can listen to them. But we believers have the real thing.

I am not talking about native intelligence or academic prowess. I am talking about possessing the spirit of wisdom and understanding that comes from God.

And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake. – Acts 6:10

See it in the Amplified version

But they were not able to resist the intelligence and the wisdom and [the inspiration of] the Spirit with which and by Whom he spoke. – Acts 6:10

It is possible to possess such intelligence and wisdom that your husband will not be able to refuse you, shut you up, or won’t listen to you.

You don’t have to be manipulative with your words, no auto planning, no rehearsals before speaking.

The fact has been established that you can speak with intelligence. But how can one come to the point where you have such a spirit?

You cannot learn it from school or from your parents or mother. What was the secret of Stephen? He was full of the Holy faith and the Holy Ghost as recorded in Acts 6:6

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. So Stephen was a man dedicated to the study of the word of God and prayers.

When you give yourself to the study of the word of God and you become controlled by the Holy Spirit, you will possess an intelligence that will be beyond your age.

You will speak with much grace and power. You will not be forceful or manipulative but your words will be gracious. The Holy Spirit will give you insight and foresight.

You will advise your husband and your advice will turn out the best decision. By the next time, he will seek counsel from you. He will disregard your words and treat your words with levity. He will come to respect you and honor you because of your intelligent words.

This is what my mentor possesses and that is what I am getting. I am giving myself to the study of the word and to prayers.

I have made up my mind to go for wisdom in words and in deed, so that I will become relevant and impact my generation. You too can take on the journey of being full of faith and the spirit of God.

God bless your marriage
