Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ! It is a great day to be saved and to know Jesus as our personal savior! I hope each of you are doing well. It was another great Sunday at FaithPointe, God is great and greatly to be praised!

 

Ephesians 5:21: Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Life's challenges often feel like spiritual attacks, testing our faith and relationships. Trials can signal that God has something powerful planned. This awareness is vital, especially in marriage. Storms, whether they are spiritual, financial, or emotional will come. The question is: Are we prepared? The Bible shows us that sin and selfishness can turn unity into division, as seen in the story of Adam and Eve. To break down these barriers in marriage, we must strive to:

--Pursue God first: When both spouses focus on God, they naturally grow closer.

--Choose to Love: Love is a choice and commitment, not just a feeling, of putting your spouse's needs above yours. 

--Communicate Well: Listen, speak with love, and handle disagreements respectfully.

--Grow Together: Continually seek spiritual, emotional, and intellectual growth together.

--Serve and Submit: Put each other's needs first, demonstrating Christ-like love through humility and mutual respect. Storms will test your marriage, but by relying on God, you can withstand any challenge. Fight for your marriage with prayer and God's grace, building a strong Christ-centered relationship.

 

Reflection: Take time this week to pray with your spouse daily, asking God to be at the center of your marriage. Discuss ways to serve one another better and to commit to one small act of love each day that shows appreciation and support. Try to listen more intentionally and speak with kindness, especially during difficult conversations. Reflect on how these actions bring you closer to each other and strengthen your relationship with God.

 

In His service,
