Three Things Every Couple Needs – Part 2

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Yesterday, we started this topic. If you missed the devotional, you can read it HERE

What are the three things every husband or wife wants?

1. Prayers

2. Words of affirmation

3. Jeru trip

Lets take these items one by one.

1. Prayers
There is so much you can pray for about your spouse. The issue is that you won’t know until you decide to start praying for him/her.

You have to remain prayed up for your spouse. Let no day pass without you bringing them before the throne of Grace and Mercy. Not just a general prayer but specific prayers.

You can have a prayer journal where you follow up on your prayers intelligently. You won’t know how much you are short circuiting God’s favor, mercy, goodness etc until you start praying for each other.

2. Words of affirmation
There is no one that doesn’t appreciate some good words. We thrive on words and so some good, encouraging words would help us when we are overwhelmed by life.

Learn to speak into the life of your spouse. Declare Gods words over him/her. Take authority over the devil and any depressive spirit around them.

Encourage your spouse, celebrate him/her when they have done something good, praise and eulogize them. This will encourage them to do better.

3. Jeru trip
This is essential because any marriage lacking in good and intimate Jeru trip has been reduced to a club or association. Intimacy in marriage is achieved when both can be naked and not ashamed, where you can lay bare everything.

Jeru trip in marriage keep couples healthy spirit, soul and body. It releases tension and renews energy and creativity to move on.

Remember, your spouse needs you.

God bless our marriage!
