We want to judge people who don’t look like us. We don’t want to accept them because they look different, act different, or commit sin…(their sin is just different from the sins we’re hiding, that’s all).
Here’s the point: if you really believe they need to change, let God’s Word do that. Accept them first, that’s what Christ did. After we bring people into the fold, then we can talk about lifestyle changes.

The Gospel is the power of God, the Gospel is the light that can be challenged but cannot be stopped; no power of men or angels can stop the march of the Gospel.
If you are a product of the Gospel, nothing on earth or under the earth can stop you.
The Gospel will transfer you from failure to success; it will take you from fear to faith. It will uplift you from a downcast position, because there is power in it.
The power of God is in the Gospel, the wisdom of God is in the Gospel.
The Gospel enriches people and causes enlightenment and understanding in their lives; the Gospel gives knowledge of who God really is and it tells you who you are in Christ, if you are a Christian and how you can be Christ if you are not yet a Christian.
The Gospel esteems you rather than demean you.
The Gospel inspires, the Gospel brings aspiration and inspiration.
The Gospel brings right desires and victory.

You can speak life or death to your dreams and visions. That is why it is very important to study and watch carefully the word that proceeds out of your month, because God watches over it to bring it to pass. My point is, if the tree died because Jesus spoke and cursed it for not bearing fruit, then we as Christians must also speak and expect mighty big results. God speaks and expects results. And we are made in the image and likeness of Him.
There are many people today who cannot speak to their circumstances because the devil continues to generate negative confessions out of their mouth. You are the speaker, God is the doer. Therefore do not let your dreams die halfway. Do not your visions die midstream. Do not reduce the scope of your thoughts and what you can achieve in life. God never gives up on His dream. You must not!

What did God tell Moses to do? To speak to the rock. And what was going to happen? Water was going to come out. In fact until Moses carried out the instruction and spoke, nothing would have happened.

Because you are looking at the rock as a stone, but God is seeing it as a reservoir.

The secret of faith is to plant the seed of belief.
Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap. Sow love and reap love. Sow joy and reap joy. Sow encouragement and reap encouragement. Whatsoever you sow, it will come to you a hundredfold according to the Word of God.
Coming together is a beginning, keeping together is progress, working together is success.
Christians can face heavy trails of the enemy. We can be knocked down but we can never be knocked out.
The life of success is one of going forward to posses our possessions. It has been said that God’s will does not send a man to where His grace cannot sustain him. God’s will and His grace go hand in hand.
Do you have faith to go forward and do what God has told you? What are you waiting for? Go tip now! Faith clears all obstacles before it.
Riches in a limited sense may be associated only money and the possession of material things, but success means more than this.
I have pinpointed two reasons why men of God do not preach on prosperity; they are ignorance and lack of understanding of God’s Word on this crucial issue.
Religion in all cases associates poverty with piety; suffering with holiness; and burdens with humility. That is pure religious stuff and not full Gospel message as presented by Jesus Christ. (John 10:10). My dear friend, don’t ask for prosperity if you will not use it for God. This has been my maxim whenever I think of prosperity in Christ.
Beloved, God is faithful, who will not suffer you to fail. Live for Him one day at a time. He will prosper the labour of your hands.
You don’t need all of God’s promises right here and now. The fact is, it is impossible to claim all God’s promises in one split second, but any promise you need that fits your situation is available to you now!
The first thing God does for you in conversion is to take your darkness and give you light. The power of light destroys and fills the vacuum left in you.
You must speak what God has already ordained you to be and it will come to pass. Change it from dream to reality. Turn excuses to uses. Turn your inabilities to God’s ability.
Religion offers nothing; it is a dark alley leading nowhere.
Christ came to turn your life from slavery into Kingdomhood.
Believing something does not in itself alter its validity or otherwise. The basic difference therefore is to believe something that is true, valid and trustworthy.
Religion leads men to bondage, fear and bleakness but through Christ, grace and faith lead men to success, prosperity and fulfillment.
Living in faith simply means putting the full weight of our lives on Jesus and being led by the Holy Spirit to appropriate all the promises.
The Bible is a precious book; it contains nuggets of gold for your life.
When God created man, in His wisdom, grace and knowledge He added a manual(The Bible) to show us the way to fruitful and successful living.
This generation is one of laxity and carelessness; no wonder many people are not making much headway in life. Go and read the manual(The Bible) and correct the errors in your life; then shall you make your way prosperous. Read the Bible daily, sow the seed of faith and blessings in the Word in your spirit.
A man can influence the destiny of his nation if only he can believe God, believe himself and set out in determination to succeed where others have failed. If only men would turn their stumbling-blocks into stepping-stones, it would make all the difference.
Aspiration is of man; inspiration is of God. One is externally generated, other is internally stimulated.
God puts His desires for good into your heart when you have His viewpoint on life and when you follow the awareness of His work in you.
The harder the enemy fights you, the harder you must fight to succeed.
To put faith into action is the secret which leads to the fulfillment of all God’s promises.
The devil (God’s enemy and ours) steps in to create doubt, fear, confusion or hesitation in order to delay or prevent God’s fulfillment and our joy.
God sees our action, which justifies our faith before him, and He steps into the scene to fulfill His promise.
God always demands that we act our faith first. This proves our believing. Then He steps into the scene to make good His promise.
God does not know the word setback! If you face problems, use them as opportunities to glorify His name.
If you are walking in the ways of God, His presence goes with you every step of the way. God is the owner of the vehicle of your life. He directs the steering of your life as He desires.
When you say ‘yes’ to Christ living in you, amazing things begin to happen to you.
God gives you grace and power to acquire riches and wealth, but He also requires you to stand upon His Word. Only if you live in daily obedience will you see His blessings upon your way.
When you work for 24years in the Civil Service and you reach retirement age, they give you retirement benefits. But when you work for God, He gives you daily benefits.
Anytime you attach yourself to God you are connected to light, health, purity in Christ, peace and all the spiritual benefits of heaven.
Beloved, riches in Christ means standing where Christ is; taking sides with Him who is able to abundantly more than you expect.
You must be a testifier rather than a complainer. God assures you that blessings will chase after you when go in and out obediently. You will be overtaken by blessings.
We have nothing to offer the heathen but a religion, and true Christianity is not a religion. Religion is only a form, a ceremonial observance, but Christianity is a life itself. Christianity is the core, heart and nature of Jesus Christ being manifested in man.
The living God stands behind the living Word. That should sound logical to your ears.
We must look to God as the source of our needs. Whenever we take our eyes off God and His will for our life, we immediately begin to attempt to do things our own way.
Prayer must be your way of life, then success will-overtake you.
God’s plan is for you to be saved, happy, blessed, successful and prosperous!
We are saved? From what to what? Death to life! Sin to righteousness! Darkness to light! Poverty to prosperity! Fear to faith! Failure to success! And more and more!
Success is a road you must travel because God wishes it so (3 John 2). Be encouraged to renew your mind and thinking according to the Master’s promises. Look up and reach out for excellence.
Life is for the living in the presence of God.
A believer who will not till the soil and plant the field may seem spiritual and may pray for miraculous harvest, but he or she will end up in poverty.
What are some of the mischievous lies the devil puts across to confuse people about prosperity and success? First, he suggests that material poverty fosters spiritual humility. Don’t allow such a thought to reign in your heart; it is sickening and defiling.
Don’t forget, it is not only the rich who are in danger of being infected by pride.
If God places so much value upon you, surely he wants you to benefit from the abundance of His creation.
A believer who is undisciplined and slothful in business principles will not prosper.
God never intended that anyone should go through life imprisoned by their own superstitions. He opens the door of success to every believer who will dare to step out and go after the good life. No one in God’s family was ever destined to exist in sickness, fear, ignorance, poverty, loneliness or mediocrity.
Once you have set your eyes on God’s lifestyle, you will no longer cower and retreat when the going gets rough. You will transform each problem into an opportunity for growth.
If your hopes are dashed by opposition you will not cringe in fear of judgment. Instead you will pick up the pieces, learn by your mistakes, profit by learning your enemy’s strategy and set even higher targets the next time around.
Success is coming your way in Christ, who became poor that you might be rich. Until we have a dream, we can never know what it is to have a dream come live.
God entrusts every generation with seeds to plant, soil to cultivate, oceans to sail, mountains to scale, deserts to conquer, rivers to harness, minerals to mine and forests to utilise. He also gives each of us a brain and a spirit with which to receive His creative ideas. With Him at work in us we can be, have and do, anything He puts into our spirit and mind.
Your choice is very important. You cannot afford to fail. To fail, you must quit first; to quit you must decide not to continue. But the will of God is that you prosper and be in good health(3 John 1:2).
Our God reigns: He brings you from discouragement to new courage, from fainting to strength. Be strong.
We are given power to do something about something that is not moving the way we want it to be.
Faith does not make things easy, it makes them possible.
Character isn’t built during victory celebrations. Character is built in the trenches when you are strategizing and working your dream.
People, we get it all wrong. We think that if God wants it to happen in our lives, that He will just magically do it.
It doesn’t work like that. He plans great things for us, but requires our faith and strategic action to activate His purpose and promises.
When you meet an obstacle along the way (and you will) it doesn’t mean that you should give up or that it wasn’t part of His plan in the first place. Activate your faith to overcome the obstacles you face. Use your faith as a booster to push you past the difficulty.
In fact… the process / journey that we pass through is also very much a part of His plan. There are lessons we are to learn on the road to every victory.
Faith is not a superstition or an intention; it is an action.
I was made in Heaven assembled in Nigeria and dispatched to my generation.
You are made for life and not for death. You are made for health and not for disease. You are made for success and not for failure. You are made for faith and not for confusion. You are made for love and not for fear.
I am part of God’s plan. I am vital to His dream. I am an instrument in His kingdom. I am a member of His family. I am the proof of God’s love. I am evidence of His life. I am the temple of His spirit. I am the expression of God’s faith.
God made me. God believe me. God loves me. God paid for me. God never gives up on me. God gave His Son for me. God redeemed me. God values me.

God created men and women for a better life than many are experiencing. It is not His will as erroneously propagated, that we live a life, guilt, near-nakedness and future.

In fact until Moses carried out the instruction and spoke, nothing would have happened. But there are many rocks in your life which need only your speaking to them to release their stored contents. Why has the water not come out? Because you are looking at the rock as a stone, but God is seeing it as a reservoir.

There are many Bible Verses About Husband Leading Wife worth knowing by all Christians. A husband plays a very important role in the family unit which was established by God. The very primary role of the husband in the Bible starts with leadership. The Holy Scripture makes it very clear unto the understanding of everyone that a husband must be a leader of his home and maintain a healthy control over his life. According to 1 Timothy 3 which speaks of two church leadership positions traditionally filled by men, an Overseer and Deacon must manage their family well. In a more specific way, verse 5 says, “If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?”
Likewise, Ephesians 5:21-24 says, “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.” In the same light, 1 Corinthians 11:3 says, “But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.” With this in mind, we can say without doubt that one of the primary roles of the husband in the Bible is to lead. In simple terms, leadership here means influence. A husband should influence his family in the light of God’s ways.
Bible Verses About Husband Leading Wife
According to the Bible, husbands are being called to lead their families in the ways of God. As previously mentioned, leading is influencing. Note here that we are not saying that husbands are dictators but leaders. Biblically, husbands have been called to influence their wives, and families in accordance to Biblical teachings. Husbands are to exemplify, with words and actions, attributes that bring glory to God and value their spouse and offspring. In simple words, we can say that the fruits of a Biblically-based husband is a confident, strong, and spiritually mature wife and family. Provision and Protection are two very specific ways through which a husband influences his home. Although the role of the husband in the Bible starts with leadership, it also encompasses provision and protection.
There is no way that a husband can influence his wife if he does not care for her. He can demand and she may follow as a result, but he will never truly have her heart unless he provides for her needs, cares for her needs, and protects her both physically and spiritually. In support of this, 1 Timothy 5:8 says, “Anyone who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.” Likewise Colossians 3:19 says, “Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.” In addition, 1 Peter 3:7 reads “Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.”
What The Scriptures Say About Christian Leadership
The Bible tells us that God loves His daughters and the children that they bear. Whenever God gives one of His daughters to a man, He desires that the man love, care, protect, and provide for her. In no way does the Scripture teach that women and children be considered second rate or inferior to men. God finds them so special that He asks for special care to be given the; a care that only Biblically-based men can provide. It is without doubt that women are quite capable of taking care of themselves. However, God created men and women to be physically different. And due to the physical nature and strength that God gave men, He has charged them with the provision and protection of their families. However, the physical nature and strength of a man are to be managed with grace and gentleness.
God did not create men to lord over women nor did He create women to simply sit back and wait on men. Rather, He made them to complement each other through a healthy companionship. Being a good companion is one of the roles of a husband in the Bible. In fact, the role of the husband in the Bible is fulfilled through the heart of companionship.
It is in this light that Ephesians 5:25-33 says, “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church—for we are members of his body. ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’ This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.”
Facts On What The Bible Says About Husband Leading Wife
God should always be the head in every relationship between a husband and a wife. This relationship in question s to be governed or based on love, sincerity, faithfulness, respect, support, forgiveness, and commitment. Both partners are to help each other, comfort each other, love each other, and live a happy life together. Such is the ideal model of marriage which is portrayed at the beginning of the Bible with the creation of Eve.
Genesis 2:20-24 says, “…But for Adam no suitable helper was found. So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh. Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said, ‘This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called “woman,” for she was taken out of man.’ That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.”
Behold, God created men and women with natural, physical, and emotional differences. Usually where one is weak, the other is strong. Thus, a husband and wife can help each other by meeting the other person’s needs through physical and emotional intimacy.
1 Corinthians 7:2-5 addresses this, “But since sexual immorality is occurring, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman with her own husband. The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.”
When the needs of each spouse are met rightly, the two can help each other as they live a successful relationship. Through their companionship, a husband and wife work together to grow a family. God’s plan was that every home operates under the guidance of both a husband and a wife and that through this, they raise healthy children that fear and obey His ways.
In support of this, Ephesians 6:1-3 says, “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. ‘Honor your father and mother’ —which is the first commandment with a promise— ‘so that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth.’”
What The Bible Says About Christian Husband Leading Wife
Truth be told, the Bible says much about being a Christian Husband that an entire book could be written on it. In fact, as of the time of putting up this article, many books have been written based on what the Bible says about being a Christian husband. Ephesians 5:15–33 clearly portrays a picture of what it means to be a Christian husband. Here, Apostle Paul speaks on what it means to be in Christ, that is, to be in a right relationship with God Almighty. Beginning in verse 23, we can read Apostle Paul’s instructions to the Christian wife whereby he explains that she is to recognize in her husband the kind of leader that Christ is to His beloved Church. In verse 25, Apostle Paul directly says the same thing to the Christian husband.
The Christian’s model for husbandly conduct is Jesus Christ Himself. In simple words, God expects Christian husbands to love their wives fully, sacrificially, and unconditionally, the same way that Christ our savior loves us. The Christian husband is expected to be willing to give everything, including his lifeblood, if necessary, for the benefit and welfare of his wife and family. God’s plan is that the husband and wife become one (Mark 10:8), so what the husband has belongs to the wife. Always remember that there is no selfishness in love (1 Corinthians 13:5); there is only giving which is made out of love. The Christian husband’s feeling for his wife should go beyond romance, infatuation, or sexual desire. Such a relationship is based on true love – the God-reflecting, God-given spirit of sacrifice.
More on what the Bible says about husband leading wife
The Christian husband is more interested in his wife’s well-being more than his own. As a fellow-heir of eternal life, he promotes her spiritual well-being (1 Peter 3:7). Instead of asking what he can get from her, he thinks of what he can be and do for her. Ephesians 5 tells us how a loving Christian husband is the instrument of Christ’s love for his Church. Many times, a Christian husband is also a father. Whatever the case, just note that the Christian roles of a husband and father are interwoven. God created man and woman as sexual beings for a good number of reasons. One of this is the joy of perpetuating the race, of populating the entire Earth with generations of people who bear God’s name and reflect His image. The husband is the head of the family just as Christ is the head of the Church.

He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, and they will bring offerings in righteousness to the Lord.

There are many Bible Verses About Husbands Leading worth knowing by all Christians. A husband plays a very important role in the family unit which was established by God. The very primary role of the husband in the Bible starts with leadership. The Holy Scripture makes it very clear unto the understanding of everyone that a husband must be a leader of his home and maintain a healthy control over his life. According to 1 Timothy 3 which speaks of two church leadership positions traditionally filled by men, an Overseer and Deacon must manage their family well. In a more specific way, verse 5 says, “If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?”
Likewise, Ephesians 5:21-24 says, “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.” In the same light, 1 Corinthians 11:3 says, “But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.” With this in mind, we can say without doubt that one of the primary roles of the husband in the Bible is to lead. In simple terms, leadership here means influence. A husband should influence his family in the light of God’s ways.
Bible Verses About Husbands Leading
According to the Bible, husbands are being called to lead their families in the ways of God. As previously mentioned, leading is influencing. Note here that we are not saying that husbands are dictators but leaders. Biblically, husbands have been called to influence their wives, and families in accordance to Biblical teachings. Husbands are to exemplify, with words and actions, attributes that bring glory to God and value their spouse and offspring. In simple words, we can say that the fruits of a Biblically-based husband is a confident, strong, and spiritually mature wife and family. Provision and Protection are two very specific ways through which a husband influences his home. Although the role of the husband in the Bible starts with leadership, it also encompasses provision and protection.
There is no way that a husband can influence his wife if he does not care for her. He can demand and she may follow as a result, but he will never truly have her heart unless he provides for her needs, cares for her needs, and protects her both physically and spiritually. In support of this, 1 Timothy 5:8 says, “Anyone who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.” Likewise Colossians 3:19 says, “Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.” In addition, 1 Peter 3:7 reads “Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.”
What The Scriptures Say About Christian Husbands Leading
The Bible tells us that God loves His daughters and the children that they bear. Whenever God gives one of His daughters to a man, He desires that the man love, care, protect, and provide for her. In no way does the Scripture teach that women and children be considered second rate or inferior to men. God finds them so special that He asks for special care to be given the; a care that only Biblically-based men can provide. It is without doubt that women are quite capable of taking care of themselves. However, God created men and women to be physically different. And due to the physical nature and strength that God gave men, He has charged them with the provision and protection of their families. However, the physical nature and strength of a man are to be managed with grace and gentleness.
God did not create men to lord over women nor did He create women to simply sit back and wait on men. Rather, He made them to complement each other through a healthy companionship. Being a good companion is one of the roles of a husband in the Bible. In fact, the role of the husband in the Bible is fulfilled through the heart of companionship.
It is in this light that Ephesians 5:25-33 says, “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church—for we are members of his body. ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’ This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.”
Facts On What The Bible Says About Husbands Leading
God should always be the head in every relationship between a husband and a wife. This relationship in question s to be governed or based on love, sincerity, faithfulness, respect, support, forgiveness, and commitment. Both partners are to help each other, comfort each other, love each other, and live a happy life together. Such is the ideal model of marriage which is portrayed at the beginning of the Bible with the creation of Eve.
Genesis 2:20-24 says, “…But for Adam no suitable helper was found. So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh. Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said, ‘This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called “woman,” for she was taken out of man.’ That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.”
Behold, God created men and women with natural, physical, and emotional differences. Usually where one is weak, the other is strong. Thus, a husband and wife can help each other by meeting the other person’s needs through physical and emotional intimacy.
1 Corinthians 7:2-5 addresses this, “But since sexual immorality is occurring, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman with her own husband. The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.”
When the needs of each spouse are met rightly, the two can help each other as they live a successful relationship. Through their companionship, a husband and wife work together to grow a family. God’s plan was that every home operates under the guidance of both a husband and a wife and that through this, they raise healthy children that fear and obey His ways.
In support of this, Ephesians 6:1-3 says, “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. ‘Honor your father and mother’ —which is the first commandment with a promise— ‘so that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth.’”
What The Bible Says About Christian Husbands Leading
Truth be told, the Bible says much about being a Christian Husband that an entire book could be written on it. In fact, as of the time of putting up this article, many books have been written based on what the Bible says about being a Christian husband. Ephesians 5:15–33 clearly portrays a picture of what it means to be a Christian husband. Here, Apostle Paul speaks on what it means to be in Christ, that is, to be in a right relationship with God Almighty. Beginning in verse 23, we can read Apostle Paul’s instructions to the Christian wife whereby he explains that she is to recognize in her husband the kind of leader that Christ is to His beloved Church. In verse 25, Apostle Paul directly says the same thing to the Christian husband.
The Christian’s model for husbandly conduct is Jesus Christ Himself. In simple words, God expects Christian husbands to love their wives fully, sacrificially, and unconditionally, the same way that Christ our savior loves us. The Christian husband is expected to be willing to give everything, including his lifeblood, if necessary, for the benefit and welfare of his wife and family. God’s plan is that the husband and wife become one (Mark 10:8), so what the husband has belongs to the wife. Always remember that there is no selfishness in love (1 Corinthians 13:5); there is only giving which is made out of love. The Christian husband’s feeling for his wife should go beyond romance, infatuation, or sexual desire. Such a relationship is based on true love – the God-reflecting, God-given spirit of sacrifice.
More on what the Bible says about husbands leading
The Christian husband is more interested in his wife’s well-being more than his own. As a fellow-heir of eternal life, he promotes her spiritual well-being (1 Peter 3:7). Instead of asking what he can get from her, he thinks of what he can be and do for her. Ephesians 5 tells us how a loving Christian husband is the instrument of Christ’s love for his Church. Many times, a Christian husband is also a father. Whatever the case, just note that the Christian roles of a husband and father are interwoven. God created man and woman as sexual beings for a good number of reasons. One of this is the joy of perpetuating the race, of populating the entire Earth with generations of people who bear God’s name and reflect His image. The husband is the head of the family just as Christ is the head of the Church.

There are many Bible Verses About Finding A Godly Husband worth knowing. Many frequently ask questions like “What should I be looking for in a husband?What does the Bible say about finding a husband?” According to Acts 13:22, a Christian woman in search of a husband should go for a man “after God’s own heart”. It is important to understand here that the most important relationship that any of us can have is that with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This is the relationship that should always come before all others. The truth is that if our vertical relationship with God is healthy, then our horizontal relationship will definitely reflect this very reality. With this in mind, we can say without doubt that a potential husband should be a man who has his focus upon walking in the light of obedience to God’s Word.
As a Christian woman in search of a husband, it is recommended to go for a man who seeks to live his life in a way that brings glory to God’s Holy Name (1 Corinthians 10:31). However, there are other qualities worth looking for in a man with whom you want to settle down. In 1 Timothy 3, Apostle Paul clearly gives us the qualities to look for in a man or potential Christian husband. This passage in question holds the qualifications for a leader in the church body. These qualities are to grace the life of every man who goes “after God’s heart.” A potential Christian husband should display in his thoughts, words, and actions the love for God, and his neighbor. In his nature should be found compassion, a forgiving heart, loving heart, caring heart, generous heart, and the desire to do God’s will.
Bible Verses About Finding A Godly Husband
The Bible holds more qualities to look for in a potential husband. These qualities from 1 Timothy 3 can be paraphrased in the light of God’s Ways as follows: “a man should be patient and controlled in his demeanor, able to master his emotions,not filled with pride but of sober mental attitude, able to patiently teach,not prone to violence,given to graciousness to others, not given to drunkenness or uncontrolled use of any of God’s gifts, not apt to be a hot-head or be thin-skinned so that he takes offense easily,not overly focused upon the details of life but focused upon God, and grateful for what God has given him, rather than envious of what gifts others have received.” These are the qualities of a man who is actively working his way towards maturity in the faith.
A man with the above mentioned qualities is a potential husband for a Christian woman. Of course, physical attraction, complementary strengths, similar interests, and the desire to have children are things to consider too. However, these things should come in a secondary position to the spiritual qualities that a woman should look for in a man. Worth noting here is the fact that a man you can love, trust, respect, and follow in the path of godliness is of far greater value than a man of fame, good looks, money, or power.
What Does The Scriptures Say About Finding A Godly Life Partner?
There is much that the Scriptures say about finding a husband. According to the Scriptures, when “looking” for a husband, we must be surrendered to God’s will in our lives. Although every woman desires to find her “prince charming,” the reality is that she’ll likely end up marrying a man with as many flaws as she has. Then, by God’s grace, both will spend the rest of their lives learning what it takes to be a partner to, and servant of, each other. As a Christian woman, avoid entering into the second most important relationship of your life (marriage) under an emotional cloud. It is advisable to enter into marriage with your eyes wide open. Don’t allow emotions to cloud your sense of reason. Be still, ascertain yourself that you are making the right decision, one out of genuine love and not interest or ego, before you get into marriage.

What Should I Look For In A Husband?What should I be looking for in a husband?What does the Bible say about finding a husband? According to Acts 13:22, a Christian woman in search of a husband should go for a man “after God’s own heart”. It is important to understand here that the most important relationship that any of us can have is that with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This is the relationship that should always come before all others. The truth is that if our vertical relationship with God is healthy, then our horizontal relationship will definitely reflect this very reality. With this in mind, we can say without doubt that a potential husband should be a man who has his focus upon walking in the light of obedience to God’s Word.
As a Christian woman in search of a husband, it is recommended to go for a man who seeks to live his life in a way that brings glory to God’s Holy Name (1 Corinthians 10:31). However, there are other qualities worth looking for in a man with whom you want to settle down. In 1 Timothy 3, Apostle Paul clearly gives us the qualities to look for in a man or potential Christian husband. This passage in question holds the qualifications for a leader in the church body. These qualities are to grace the life of every man who goes “after God’s heart.” A potential Christian husband should display in his thoughts, words, and actions the love for God, and his neighbor. In his nature should be found compassion, a forgiving heart, loving heart, caring heart, generous heart, and the desire to do God’s will.
What Should I Be Looking For In A Husband?
The Bible holds more qualities to look for in a potential husband. These qualities from 1 Timothy 3 can be paraphrased in the light of God’s Ways as follows: “a man should be patient and controlled in his demeanor, able to master his emotions,not filled with pride but of sober mental attitude, able to patiently teach, not prone to violence,given to graciousness to others, not given to drunkenness or uncontrolled use of any of God’s gifts, not apt to be a hot-head or be thin-skinned so that he takes offense easily,not overly focused upon the details of life but focused upon God, and grateful for what God has given him, rather than envious of what gifts others have received.” These are the qualities of a man who is actively working his way towards maturity in the faith.
A man with the above mentioned qualities is a potential husband for a Christian woman. Of course, physical attraction, complementary strengths, similar interests, and the desire to have children are things to consider too. However, these things should come in a secondary position to the spiritual qualities that a woman should look for in a man. Worth noting here is the fact that a man you can love, trust, respect, and follow in the path of godliness is of far greater value than a man of fame, good looks, money, or power.
What Does The Scriptures Say About What To Look For In A Husband ?
There is much that the Scriptures say about finding a husband. According to the Scriptures, when “looking” for a husband, we must be surrendered to God’s will in our lives. Although every woman desires to find her “prince charming,” the reality is that she’ll likely end up marrying a man with as many flaws as she has. Then, by God’s grace, both will spend the rest of their lives learning what it takes to be a partner to, and servant of, each other. As a Christian woman, avoid entering into the second most important relationship of your life (marriage) under an emotional cloud. It is advisable to enter into marriage with your eyes wide open. Don’t allow emotions to cloud your sense of reason. Be still, ascertain yourself that you are making the right decision, one out of genuine love and not interest or ego, before you get into marriage.

There are many Bible Verses About A Woman Finding A Husband. Many frequently ask questions like “What should I be looking for in a husband?What does the Bible say about finding a husband?” According to Acts 13:22, a Christian woman in search of a husband should go for a man “after God’s own heart”. It is important to understand here that the most important relationship that any of us can have is that with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This is the relationship that should always come before all others. The truth is that if our vertical relationship with God is healthy, then our horizontal relationship will definitely reflect this very reality. With this in mind, we can say without doubt that a potential husband should be a man who has his focus upon walking in the light of obedience to God’s Word.
As a Christian woman in search of a husband, it is recommended to go for a man who seeks to live his life in a way that brings glory to God’s Holy Name (1 Corinthians 10:31). However, there are other qualities worth looking for in a man with whom you want to settle down. In 1 Timothy 3, Apostle Paul clearly gives us the qualities to look for in a man or potential Christian husband. This passage in question holds the qualifications for a leader in the church body. These qualities are to grace the life of every man who goes “after God’s heart.” A potential Christian husband should display in his thoughts, words, and actions the love for God, and his neighbor. In his nature should be found compassion, a forgiving heart, loving heart, caring heart, generous heart, and the desire to do God’s will.
Bible Verses About A Woman Finding A Husband
The Bible holds more qualities to look for in a potential husband. These qualities from 1 Timothy 3 can be paraphrased in the light of God’s Ways as follows: “a man should be patient and controlled in his demeanor, able to master his emotions,not filled with pride but of sober mental attitude, able to patiently teach,not prone to violence,given to graciousness to others, not given to drunkenness or uncontrolled use of any of God’s gifts, not apt to be a hot-head or be thin-skinned so that he takes offense easily,not overly focused upon the details of life but focused upon God, and grateful for what God has given him, rather than envious of what gifts others have received.” These are the qualities of a man who is actively working his way towards maturity in the faith.
A man with the above mentioned qualities is a potential husband for a Christian woman. Of course, physical attraction, complementary strengths, similar interests, and the desire to have children are things to consider too. However, these things should come in a secondary position to the spiritual qualities that a woman should look for in a man. Worth noting here is the fact that a man you can love, trust, respect, and follow in the path of godliness is of far greater value than a man of fame, good looks, money, or power.
What Does The Scriptures Say About A Woman Finding A Life Partner?
There is much that the Scriptures say about finding a husband. According to the Scriptures, when “looking” for a husband, we must be surrendered to God’s will in our lives. Although every woman desires to find her “prince charming,” the reality is that she’ll likely end up marrying a man with as many flaws as she has. Then, by God’s grace, both will spend the rest of their lives learning what it takes to be a partner to, and servant of, each other. As a Christian woman, avoid entering into the second most important relationship of your life (marriage) under an emotional cloud. It is advisable to enter into marriage with your eyes wide open. Don’t allow emotions to cloud your sense of reason. Be still, ascertain yourself that you are making the right decision, one out of genuine love and not interest or ego, before you get into marriage.

The Bible holds more qualities to look for in a potential husband. These qualities from 1 Timothy 3 can be paraphrased in the light of God’s Ways as follows: “a man should be patient and controlled in his demeanor, able to master his emotions,not filled with pride but of sober mental attitude, able to patiently teach,not prone to violence,given to graciousness to others, not given to drunkenness or uncontrolled use of any of God’s gifts, not apt to be a hot-head or be thin-skinned so that he takes offense easily,not overly focused upon the details of life but focused upon God, and grateful for what God has given him, rather than envious of what gifts others have received.” These are the qualities of a man who is actively working his way towards maturity in the faith.
A man with the above mentioned qualities is a potential husband for a Christian woman. Of course, physical attraction, complementary strengths, similar interests, and the desire to have children are things to consider too. However, these things should come in a secondary position to the spiritual qualities that a woman should look for in a man. Worth noting here is the fact that a man you can love, trust, respect, and follow in the path of godliness is of far greater value than a man of fame, good looks, money, or power.
What Does The Scriptures Say About Finding Your Husband?
There is much that the Scriptures say about finding a husband. According to the Scriptures, when “looking” for a husband, we must be surrendered to God’s will in our lives. Although every woman desires to find her “prince charming,” the reality is that she’ll likely end up marrying a man with as many flaws as she has. Then, by God’s grace, both will spend the rest of their lives learning what it takes to be a partner to, and servant of, each other. As a Christian woman, avoid entering into the second most important relationship of your life (marriage) under an emotional cloud. It is advisable to enter into marriage with your eyes wide open. Don’t allow emotions to cloud your sense of reason. Be still, ascertain yourself that you are making the right decision, one out of genuine love and not interest or ego, before you get into marriage.

What Does The Bible Say About Finding A Husband? Many frequently ask questions like “What should I be looking for in a husband?What does the Bible say about finding a husband?” According to Acts 13:22, a Christian woman in search of a husband should go for a man “after God’s own heart”. It is important to understand here that the most important relationship that any of us can have is that with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This is the relationship that should always come before all others. The truth is that if our vertical relationship with God is healthy, then our horizontal relationship will definitely reflect this very reality. With this in mind, we can say without doubt that a potential husband should be a man who has his focus upon walking in the light of obedience to God’s Word.
As a Christian woman in search of a husband, it is recommended to go for a man who seeks to live his life in a way that brings glory to God’s Holy Name (1 Corinthians 10:31). However, there are other qualities worth looking for in a man with whom you want to settle down. In 1 Timothy 3, Apostle Paul clearly gives us the qualities to look for in a man or potential Christian husband. This passage in question holds the qualifications for a leader in the church body. These qualities are to grace the life of every man who goes “after God’s heart.” A potential Christian husband should display in his thoughts, words, and actions the love for God, and his neighbor. In his nature should be found compassion, a forgiving heart, loving heart, caring heart, generous heart, and the desire to do God’s will.
What Does The Bible Say About Finding A Husband?
The Bible holds more qualities to look for in a potential husband. These qualities from 1 Timothy 3 can be paraphrased in the light of God’s Ways as follows: “a man should be patient and controlled in his demeanor, able to master his emotions,not filled with pride but of sober mental attitude, able to patiently teach, not prone to violence,given to graciousness to others, not given to drunkenness or uncontrolled use of any of God’s gifts, not apt to be a hot-head or be thin-skinned so that he takes offense easily,not overly focused upon the details of life but focused upon God, and grateful for what God has given him, rather than envious of what gifts others have received.” These are the qualities of a man who is actively working his way towards maturity in the faith.
A man with the above mentioned qualities is a potential husband for a Christian woman. Of course, physical attraction, complementary strengths, similar interests, and the desire to have children are things to consider too. However, these things should come in a secondary position to the spiritual qualities that a woman should look for in a man. Worth noting here is the fact that a man you can love, trust, respect, and follow in the path of godliness is of far greater value than a man of fame, good looks, money, or power.
