How to Solve Marital Arguments in Christian Couples?
Here is a fail safe way to solve most marital arguments in a Christian marriage and conclude with a great marriage.
Most arguments in a married couple are the result of competing wills and agendas.
IT’S “THE I WANT THIS!” SYNDROMEPeople hear their own voices telling them to do this, and that.
And thus come the arguments.
But when the couple’s sole desire it to serve God, they will learn to hear one voice and one agenda.
Obviously, this will be the Holy Spirit’s.
HERE IS THE RULE!The only voice must be that of the Holy Spirit!
Their agenda must become God’s agenda!
Their life’s vision must become God’s!
GOOD DEVOTIONS; THE REQUIREMENT TO HEAR GOD’S VOICE CLEARLYThe first and most important requirement is that both partners have a healthy and intimate devotional life with the Lord.
If you are going to solve marital arguments, then both partners must be able to clearly hear what the Holy Spirit says!
Learning to hear the voice of God correctly will only come from personal devotions.
It’s in our devotions that God sets you free so that we can recognize His voice.
THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS ONE VOICE NOT TWO!This is where the marital arguments begin!
The couple deal with conflicts through two competing voices, the husband’s and the wife’s.
Problems are brought to the marriage table with two agendas and two wills, that of the husband’s, and that of the wife’s.
Difficulties are dealt through two competing visions, the husband’s and wife’s.
The end result is an unhealthy marriage filled with arguments and stuck in first gear.
THE ANSWER? BOTH MUST SURRENDER THEIR VOICES, WILLS, AND AGENDAS AND ASSUME GOD’S!To have a great Christian marriage, each partner must surrender what they want to hear, and what they want to do, and listen to God’s one voice, and do His one will and one agenda.
In conflict resolution and decision making, the couple comes together and seeks the Lord in prayer, with the desire to hear and do only what He says.
God will speak His solution from His one voice from diverse angles to the couple.
The couple may hear different things, but it will ALWAYS complement and supplement to bring the couple to God’s one solution coming from His one voice.
Then they will both do the one agenda that God shows them to obtain the answer!
WHEN THERE IS ONE VOICE, ONE WILL, AND ONE AGENDA, AND THE COUPLE WILLINGLY DO THEM, I GUARANTEE YOU, THIS WILL BE THE FINISH OF MARITAL ARGUMENTS!
