My mother and father dearly loved each other. Then there was a testing time as he began quit his job and she went to work to get them over the hump until the new business would prosper. As a waitress she found out he was gambling and she was angry and lost respect for him. Then because he felt disrespected and her best friend made moves to attract him he committed adultery. My mother couldn't forgive him so the 20 year married ended in divorce. I can only say "be so glad you've been forgiven that you will be able to forgive others". This still hurts me even after 70 years.

Hi Joan! I just wanted to point out your dad had 100% control over how he acted wether or not he was or even felt disrespected by your mother. That is still no reason to justify adultery. Your mom was right to feel angry and hurt that she was working to provide for your family and your father undermined that with his gambling. Your mom had a real need to feel secure in the marriage and provided for financially by God through her husband. I don’t think respect is unconditional as love is. Yes you should respect their authority as husband, but they also have to BE Godly with their actions and repentant when they get it wrong.

This is a serman that can only be delivered by a man. Why? Because only a man know what it takes to feel respected by his wife! I see a lot of videos by sincere, starry eyed, romantic brides who look forward to their traditional vows, but they are describing what it all means to them, but where are the men describing what they they are looking forward to? My boyfriend and I are attending premarital classes from our conservative church. When the Pastor was reciting Ephesians and asked me if I would respect my husband. I proudly said yes but my boyfriend replied that I didn't respect him now! I was floored! Lesson learned: it doesn't matter if I ( the wife ) think I am doing right - it matters if he ( the husband ) does! He gave me a beautiful lesson on how wifely submission in our marriage will look like. He gently communicated to me what respect looks like to him and that he would like that from me. He corrected my error: I was confusing being nice with respect. He showed me their is a difference! Message received. I have noticed what successful marriages are about. They go to a biblically based, conservative church, they know while men and women have equal value before God and the Law the husband must be head of the house hold and take his responsibilities seriously ( never being a tyrant) the wife supports him as his helpmate and can relax into submission ( never a doormat) and church fellowship. I want that kind of marriage and a happy life. Easier said than done, but I'm willing to try 😊
@ScottLaPierre

Michelley, Thank you for sharing this humble testimony. You are correct that when it comes to respect it is not what the wife claims, but how the husband feels. Similarly, when it comes to a husband loving his wife, it is not an issue of what the husband claims, but how the wife feels. I think it is very important that husbands learn their wives, and wives learn their husbands. Wives must know (as you were sharing about your marriage) how a husband feels respected. Similarly, husbands must know how their wives feel loved and cared for as 1 Peter 3:7 commands. I hope you will listen to the other for marriage messages and let me know your thoughts. I will also pray for your upcoming union. What is the name of your conservative church, if you don't mind me asking?

I do think that childhood trauma can affect us when we are adults, including in our marriages. If that has been an issue I would encourage you to get counsel from your elders.

@ScottLaPierre
4 жыл бұрын
Hi Stephanie, Good question! A couple thoughts. This message is primarily for wives. I have two other messages for husbands: A Husband’s Love (kzitem.info/news/bejne/mnlrr5uwjYCmZJg) and How Husbands Should Treat Their Wives (kzitem.info/news/bejne/yWuA16SDgYx8hH4). Those are the second and fourth messages I deliver at Marriage God’s Way Conferences. I deliberately put them before the two messages for wives (the third and fifth messages) to make the teaching on submission and respect easier for wives to receive. Even though that’s the case, in this message I directly address the husbands in Lesson 5 and tell them how important it is to make respecting them easier for their wives. I tell them how sin - such as the ones you listed, as well as pornography - make it very difficult for wives to respect their husbands. Regarding your actual question: how do you confront this behavior respectfully? To try to give you a concise answer, here are a few encouragements: 1. Before you confront your husband, first pray that God will give him a humble, receptive, teachable heart. 2. Confront him, but try to make some deposits along with your withdrawals. Find some commendable things about your husband and share those with him. 3. This is the toughest part: if your husband doesn’t respond well - and he might not - don’t keep confronting him. Otherwise you’ll be nagging, which will cause him to dig in his heels even more. If you respond in a godly way so that he can see Christ through you, that will convict him more than further confronting. At that point you have to turn it over to the Holy Spirit. Your question is the main reason I tell single ladies to be so careful who they marry.

@@stephaniepalazzo5634, I appreciate your humility in recognizing you’ve started nagging him. I believe you do want to respect him, and in this message I talk about wives who are in your position. God has put in women a desire to have a man to look up to who leads well and is a good representative of Christ. If your husband isn’t saved, then your situation might be harder, but it’s more straightforward. While there are different issues in his life, the MAIN issue is he’s unregenerate. Even if you could get him to stop a certain sin, if he goes to hell, what did that really accomplish? You need to pray for his salvation and strive to “win him over” as 1 Peter 3:1-2 instructs, “Wives, likewise, be submissive to your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the word, they, without a word, may be won by the conduct of their wives, 2 when they observe your chaste conduct accompanied by fear.” If you haven’t listened to my sermon on wives submitting to their husbands, I hope you will: kzitem.info/news/bejne/0oBom3mrqV-pgH4. I will definitely pray for you. I’m glad you’re going to your pastor and seeking counseling. Perhaps your pastor or one of the elders in the church could try to develop a relationship with your husband. Go out to coffee with him. Get to know him. Then God can use that man in his life.

It would have been nice to have a husband that responded to respect.... he was not deserving and he knew it. The better I treated him the worse he got, the worse he treated me, the more he felt HE WAS A GOD. I was being disrespectful because I asked him not to go to strip clubs, or drink and drive, or it's not okay to talk sexual to my sister whole she is on his lap( in front of me and his parents). It's been 8 years since he walked out,I still cant even think about dating. ... . It's hard not to be resentful of this idea . So I just stay single. . At least I'm not sinning. 🤷♀️ to be honest he was shocked when he told me that we had a wonderful marriage and he was sorry it didnt work out...... I finally told him the total and honest truth, I was miserable for 12 years, how can one couple have 2 different marriages. Because I SUBMITTED, RESPECTED him to a fault and my life was and is damaged because if it.

Hi Terry, Since all husbands are sinners, no husbands deserve respect. Similarly, since all wives are sinners, no wives deserve to be loved. But Jesus deserves our respect and love; therefore, wives respect their husbands and husbands love their wives because of their relationships - not with their spouses - but with Christ. We love and respect our spouse, not because of what our spouse has done for us, but because of what Jesus has done for us. If you don’t mind me asking, why would you marry a husband who acted this way? Yes, you should stay single or reconcile with your husband as Paul said, because remarrying would be committing adultery as Jesus said.

@@ScottLaPierre , he actively decieved me for 4 years. I was at a time in my life God was dealing with me about going to church. He asked me out and I denied him because he drank. He later came back said he quit, started attending church services with me here and there. I thought he was supporting me but in reality he was driving me farther from God. It's very important to understand that I came out of an extremely abusive home. Sexually, verbally, physically , emotionally and spiritually. I had no clue what love was and this guy who all the girls I worked with were jealous of me. All his friends were talking him up and saying how he didnt drink anymore and he treated me good. Well what I didbt understand was that just because someone doesnt hit, cuss you out or hold a gun to you head and threaten to kill you ,doent mean they are a good guy. He had good credit and was a hard worker I dated him 4 years, the sweet natured guy started laughing the day after our marriage and said well I tricked you, I never stopped drinking, now you are stuck with me. He knew even me being unsaved ih didnt believe in divorce. So 2 years later I am saved , filled with the holy spirit and still married to him. Doing what I feel what I am required to do. The guy with the good credit suddenly accumulated over 20,000 in dept. Started a band with friends and was a closet alcoholic. We had a child because of a bad decisions I let it happen because you know I have to submit. Now he is unhappier than ever stays away longer, and it just goes downhill from there. I prayed for him, I fasted got him. So many times. Actually I still do, but I dont love him. Over the 12 years I asked God to let me leave, God said no, he told me to stay. I am still paying for this horror of a mistake from my youth . I stayed he finally left us for another woman. He wanted to come back after she dumped him. I told him we would have to go to marriage counseling and he would have to seek help for his drinking. The man I would have given anything to looked me dead in the eye and told me I wasnt worth it. The man I adired set off a nuclear bomb in my heart and murdered me in every way possible. I dont hate him, I'm a very forgiving person. I am now working 6 to 7 days,a,week to provide for my children. But I can say they have a very stable home, God has provided for us, there is love in our walls. They know that mom is going to sacrifice anything she can for them. The bad side is they resent their father. I never saus,a bad word but they watched. They saw. They know he doesnt help financially or emotionally . They watch as he bought a 46,000 car and have a much younger gf and then they see me do without so they can have. It's sad, It kills me yo see them not even like their dad. It hurts to see them suffer because a hurt wounded young lady thought she found a good man and made the worst mistake that will follow her to the grave and they are rhe hostages in this scenario

Hello again@@terryvest640, I’ve heard from quite a few angry people - usually wives - who trash their spouse. The worst they make their husband or wife sound, the more I think, “Then why did you marry someone who’s so terrible?” First Peter 3:1-2 says, “Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that even if some do not obey the word, they may be won without a word by the conduct of their wives, when they see your respectful and pure conduct.” If your husband is as terrible as you say, and I’m not denying that He is (although Scripture says to hear both sides before coming to a conclusion), then it’s more reason for you to pray for his salvation and win him to Christ through your behavior and conduct. Let him see Christ through you. If it hasn’t worked for four years, then try for five years. Maybe you’ll have to try for your whole life which is what you committed to do when you married him. You swore to God before witnesses that you would love him and stay with him through good and bad. If you have a child (or children) you have even more reason to do the above. It’s not just about you, it’s also about your child.

@@ScottLaPierre actually I am not angry. I didnt give up. It's been 8 years since he left, 4 since he divorced me. I have remained faithful I watch him go from woman to woman. He remarried, I was good to her, I bought her children Christmas presents. Just because she was good yo my children. It was the hardest thing I have ever had to do was accept her in my children's life. she left him after a year of marriage because of how he treated her. Who did he call? Me, did I feel bad for him ? Yes I prayed for him, I talked to him for over an hour. It's not my heart that is the issue, I shoulder the entire weight of my responsibilities and mine. I have forgiven and pray and fast. Yes I made a vow but the issue is i entered into a covenant with a person who had no intention of keeping the covenant. I made a vow to a person who was a lie and not even real. Yet , I am the one being punished,I am the one who is tormented day and night. I am the one in therapy because of the effects. You can say I dont trust God, in reality unless you go through this you have no clue how much pain, how much faith and how much damage is done. I am not angry, I am a wounded person who keeps getting told his sins are my burden, his deception is my curse. I am a cursed woman with no way out. But yet I asked him last night if he felt if I disrespected him in our marriage his answer was . Well a couple of times but I never saw it as an issue at all. It wasnt anything that hurt. See I am open I want him to find salvation, but honestly I think If Hod told me to take him back I would grieve. I would do but it would kill me. Some people dont chang , they wont change. He is my curse, I am a cursed woman because a man who lied about who he was, what he believed and had no intention of keeping a commitment, had no intention of being a husband, who inexcusable and intentionally lied and schemed for years to get a woman who would dedicate her life to him ....... and it's a game to him. He has no love , he has no compassion and STILL I am loyal. And all I gain is more pain, more wounds, more stress, more hell . I get judgment but no support, no prayer, no one to stand up and say I've got your back. Judge me for being tired, it's cool but remember even God said he wouldn't strive forever with men. I'm not looking for a loophole I'm Just so tired, I'm so weary of doing my part and am ordered to honor a man who intentionally does anything he can to hurt and wounds. You think I am trashing his name and that's disrespectful, I'm tired of suffering in silence, if I hide his sins and put him up on a pedestal and treat him like he is the best man in the world how will he ever see them or even care? I am merely supporting his idea that he can do anything he wants eith no repercussions, no consequences and no conflict why because he is a god and I am bound to him to do his will. IF GE DOES FIND GOD I WILL REJOICE, BUT NO THERECIS NO RECONCILIATION THERE. I havent told him , I've never mentioned it but no . I'm strong enough to live in hell so that he might be saved, I'm strong enough to remain faithful, I'm strong enough to go through counsling and work the rest of my life to heal because that's what it is going to take, I'm strong enough to fast for him, and recognize his accomplishments. I'm not strong enough to give him those knives back, I'm not strong enough to trust his intentions with my heart. I hope he finds happiness and peace and I will always be in his corner but I will not be able to be by his side. Reconciliation is not an option .

Hi again@@terryvest640, I’m sure that was very difficult, and I’m really sorry you had to go through it. I’m glad you were still kind to him even if he was unkind to you so he could see Christ through you. The reason I thought you were angry was that I’ve heard you say many bad things about your husband, but I haven’t heard you say anything about yourself, except for good things. In other words, I haven’t heard you take any responsibility. This is usually a sign of anger. Even if your husband is more at fault, rare is the situation that doesn’t involve fault on both sides. You’re right that I don’t know. I was simply trying to respond to your comment and share with you what God’s Word says. I’m not sure what else I could do? Perhaps just tell you how sorry I am? If you’re in Christ then He took the judgment you deserve. He intercedes for you and stands up for you and is there for you. You need to look to Him. You said reconciliation is not an option, which is sad, because 1 Cor 7 commands you to reconcile.

The checking accounts yes you need two one for the bills and one for her fun spending so she don't need to wonder if she got the money for something or not swipe and try if you get declined you got to wait till next Friday but there's no way she can accidentally spend the rent money and we will never be short on bills and food will always be on the table and have cards that lock so she can't loose money.. forget the card somewhere no big deal I'll just zelle the money to the another account my girl isnt the best at budgeting so we made a agreement after a few mistakes like spend all the rent money on the 30th leaving me with a day to get $1300 I'll be taking care of the money and she can have as much money as she wants that we can afford with no limits I just put most of the extra money into her account

Yes, this is also a great sense of security for us women because so many things come up… we have a need to refill our feminine energy by feeling good about looking good for our men (variety clothes/shoes/undies)- we feel a refill if we buy pretty things, create a cozy home to buy flowers, candles, perfume. We can be moody and don’t know why… especially if our lives don’t reflect the joy we have in our hearts. A zero balance can cause cause so many scary and sad emotions. Every women has a cap each year….. I feel great when I can spend about 12k on birthdays, Christmas my little shopping sprees….work out outfits and shoes 😅❤🙏🏽
