Strengthen Rather Than Weary Yourselves
Mrs Adet is almost always sad. She is not a happy wife neither is she a happy woman. This is because she feels battered most of the time. Not physically, as a matter of fact, her husband has never lifted up his hands against her. But there is a much worse thing being lifted against her, it’s his tongue!
The scripture says
There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.
Pro 12:18 (KJV)
Her husband is the sharp-mouthed man who speaks so bluntly without emotions or sentiments.
Over time, their marriage was unhealthy. They spoke back and forth to each other using toxic vocabularies.
Mr. Adet has to come into a place of learning how to talk properly to his wife before their marriage could be healed.
Every husband and wife alike must learn how to speak properly to their spouses.
Take a look at the scripture
The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
Isa 50:4 (KJV)
This is where every couple should be!
Use the tongue of the learned on one another and speak words that will strengthen and not weary.
This is what every couple should work towards.
Let’s take a look at another translation as we conclude this morning.
The Master, GOD, has given me a well-taught tongue, So I know how to encourage tired people. He wakes me up in the morning, wakes me up, opens my ears to listen as one ready to take orders.
Isa 50:4 (MSG)
Have a blessed day!
