For the next few days, our devotionals will be centered on showing every husband how God wants him to treat his wife

1. Husbands, treat your wife with tenderness

Husbands, you in turn must treat your wives with tenderness, viewing them as feminine partners who deserve to be honored, for they are co-heirs with you of the “divine grace of life,” so that nothing will hinder your prayers. -1Pe 3:7 (TPT)

Husbands according to scriptures, you MUST treat your wife with tenderness. It is a requirement for your prayers not to be hindered

What does tenderness mean? It means each husband has to look at his wife and know what tenderness is to her.

Tenderness is a feeling of concern, gentle affection, or warmth. Tenderness is not a general thing in a sense because what I regard as tenderness, another lady may not see it as such.

In a general sense, you are tender to a woman when you are considerate of her and when you are kind and thoughtful of her.

Men have to learn this because men generally are logical beings. You have to be emotional and not stay on the side of logic to be tender.

Some husbands have a hard stance and are very rigid when it comes to showing their ego. To fulfill this instruction, you cannot afford to do that.

2. Husbands, know that your wife is your feminine partner who deserves to be honoured.

You know every woman and wife deserves in the least to be honored.

God wants each husband to forever celebrate and honor their wives. If for anything, she left her father and mother, changed her last name, and decided to follow you and live with you.

In the same way you married men should live considerately with [your wives], with an intelligent recognition [of the marriage relation], honoring the woman as [physically] the weaker, but [realizing that you] are joint heirs of the grace (God’s unmerited favor) of life, in order that your prayers may not be hindered and cut off. [Otherwise you cannot pray effectively.] -1Pe 3:7 (AMPC)

Honour – Greek – value, that is, money paid; esteem (especially of the highest degree), or the dignity itself: One way to honor your wife is to spend money on her and make her feel special, especially on her anniversaries.

Some men didn’t have anything when they got married, yet your wife stayed by you. Your wife deserves to be honored, that is what the Bible says.

Now how do you honor her? That is up to every husband to decide and determine.
