But from the beginning of the creation, God ‘made them male and female.’ ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.” Mark 10:6-9 (NKJV) Ponder and brood on Mark 10:6-9 by praying in the Spirit while holding that scripture in mind. Meditate by repeating these several times throughout the day: I AM ONE FLESH WITH MY HUSBAND. MY HUSBAND FAITHFULLY CLINGS TO ME. BECAUSE GOD HAS JOINED US TOGETHER, EVERY AGENT OF MARITAL SEPARATION OR FAILURE WILL FAIL. ONLY GOD’S WILL PREVAILS IN MY MARRIAGE. I AM GROWING SPIRITUALLY WITH MY HUSBAND. I AM GROWING IN LOVE WITH MY HUSBAND.
But did He not make them one, Having a remnant of the Spirit? And why one? He seeks godly offspring. Therefore take heed to your spirit, And let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth. “For the Lord God of Israel says That He hates divorce, Malachi 2:15-16 (NKJV) Ponder and brood on Malachi 2:15-16 by praying in the Spirit while holding that scripture in mind. Meditate by repeating these several times throughout the day: I AM ONE WITH MY HUSBAND. MY HUSBAND IS FAITHFUL AND FULL OF WISDOM. MY HUSBAND DEALS KINDLY WITH ME AND FEARS THE LORD. MY MARRIAGE BEARS FRUIT TO GOD. GOD’S WILL FINDS EXPRESSION IN MY MARRIAGE. IN MY HOME, WE ONLY DO WHAT GOD LOVES.
Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her. Ephesians 5:22-25 (NKJV) Ponder and brood on Ephesians 5:22-25 by praying in the Spirit while holding that scripture in mind. Meditate by repeating these several times throughout the day: I AM HUMBLE. I SUBMIT TO MY HUSBAND AS TO THE LORD. MY HUSBAND LOVES ME LIKE CHRIST LOVES THE CHURCH AND HE GIVES HIMSELF FOR ME. THERE IS LOVE, UNITY, AND HONOR IN MY MARRIAGE. MY HOME IS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF GOD’S LOVE.
