Let The Beams of Your Marriage Be Cedars

Let The Beams of Your Marriage Be Cedars

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Imagine two love birds intending to get married. They are so much in love. And then comes a time, when the parents of the bride wants to know where the intending groom lives, and as a consequence where their daughter will be domiciled.

And then he proudly leads them to his house, a makeshift shaft, tent-like material supported with tiny sticks which can collapse anytime.

Right there and then, the parents will change their mind.

Jesus spoke about a house built on sand and the other built on the rock. If you were to choose one, which will you choose?

In a deliberate manner, every couple must decide to build their marriage with Cedars and not just some fancy sticks that will give way to irreconcilable differences.

The scripture that inspired my write up today is found in

Son 1:17 (KJV) The beams of our house are cedar, and our rafters of fir.

A cedar is pleasing to the eye and smell, hard, and never eaten by worms. It is combined habits and practices with which you build your marriage.

Never allow your marriage to be built with materials of carelessness, indecisiveness, mediocrity, laziness and visionless leadership.

Rather, surround yourselves with regularized prayer life, confession laden marriage, strife free zone, and a perpetual giving lifestyle.

These are what will birth cedars with which a great marriage is built.

Take communion regularly, don’t wait till Sunday. Be open to each other and be extremely honest, naked and not ashamed.

Let the husband love his wife as Christ love the church by laying down his life, and let the wife see that she honour her husband, giving him all the honour and respect that he deserves.

Let the love of God be shed abroad in your hearts, forgiving quickly and loving each other with God’s love.

Dear husband, dear wife, have a great and fulfilling day!
