Topic :
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE OF YOUR FAMILY LOVE/CONFLICT❓
Memory verse:
Ephesians 4:26
Message :
Welcome to the Family week. Perhaps February is a month of LOVE as widely speculated Throughout this week we shall be dealing with issues relating to the building of healthy Homes/Families. Today and tomorrow we shall be looking at causes and resolution of conflicts in our homes. Let us look at one of causes of conflicts in the family.
One of the basic causes of uproar in the family is the issue of “FINANCE”. In many of the cases it is either that a spouse is reckless in spending or stingy to a fault. At some instances, finance related crises are caused when a spouse is lazy and yet very demanding and overtly irresponsible. Whatever may be the case, peace can be achieved in our homes when husband assume their God given responsibility of providing for the family while the wives take up their assigned tasks of care and resource management. Women who are privileged to become bread winners should learn to be humble and submissive while their husbands must reciprocate that gesture with love, fidelity and understanding. Families that want freedom from financial pressures should also consider adopting the budgeting system and ensure they do not vagrantly live above their means. They should as well take a resolution to avoid going a borrowing especially borrowing to buy liabilities.
No matter what is the cause of a family crises, the scriptures provide that a husband’s love and the wife’s submission are the most essential tools for resolving the conflicts in the home. Let’s apply these rules and trust God for uncommon results.
In the passage we read, Apostle Paul admonished the Ephesians to submit themselves to one another as Christ to the Church and gave His life for it. As the wife submits to her husband so also the man should love his wife. They need to pray together in order not give room external forces. A family that prays together stays together.
N/B: a “family with only one source of income suffers depression”
