TOPIC: TAKE CARE OF YOUR WIFE
MEMORISE:
Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. - (Colossians 3:19)
BIBLE READING: EPHESIANS 5:25-29 (KJV)
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
MESSAGE:
One of the most important tasks for a husband is to take care of his wife because God has given her to him to nurture and protect her. Today's Bible reading encourages husbands to love their wives just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself for it. One of the ways a husband can show his wife that he loves her is by showering her with his attention and affection. If a husband loves his wife, he will not starve her sexually or neglect her needs.
In today's memory verse, the Bible urges husbands to love their wives and not be bitter against them. This means that some situations will arise that will tempt husbands to become bitter against their wives. However, they must not fall for such temptations.
After some men have gotten married, they stop being intentional about their relationships with their wives. One of the ways a husband can take care of his wife is to keep the romance alive in their relationship. He should always tell her that he loves her, buy her gifts regularly, shower her with compliments privately and publicly, and thank her for the things she does for him. Isaac carried the same blessing as his father, Abraham, and was also a successful businessman. Yet, in Genesis 26:8, we read about him being romantic with his wife:
...Abimelech, king of the Philistines, looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife.
It is important for husbands to know that they must treat their wives well. If a husband is not treating his wife well, his prayers can become hindered. (1 Peter 3:7) says, "Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered." If a husband takes care of his wife and makes her happy, it will also do him good. When a wife is happy with her husband, she will support him, and this can push him to achieve his goals faster. However, when the one who should be supporting her husband is not happy with him because he is neglecting or hurting her, his prayers will be hindered. A wise husband takes good care of his wife so he can obtain favour from God and live a blessed and peaceful life.
KEY POINT:
Husbands should be intentional about giving their wives attention and showering them with affection

HYMNAL: 28 GUIDE ME, O THOU GREAT JEHOVAH
Guide me, O my great Redeemer,
pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but you are mighty;
hold me with your powerful hand.
Bread of heaven, bread of heaven,
feed me now and evermore,
feed me now and evermore.
2 Open now the crystal fountain,
where the healing waters flow.
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
lead me all my journey through.
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer,
ever be my strength and shield,
ever be my strength and shield.
3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,
bid my anxious fears subside.
Death of death, and hell's Destruction,
land me safe on Canaan's side.
Songs of praises, songs of praises
I will ever sing to you,
I will ever sing to you.
