WHEN YOU MEET A GREAT WEDDING CAKE BAKER who is 65 years old and give her a baking job, you’re sure she’d deliver a wonderful cake that will satisfy you. If you give the same job to another reputable cake baker who’s 38 years old, you you’ll get an equally satisfying product. So, it’s not a matter of age, it’s a matter of KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE. It’s the same in marriage.

It’s one thing to be married and quite another to enjoy a marriage that’s consistently happy, enriching and exhilarating.

This morning, you’re gonna get some knowledge that will help you stop merely living together and start “baking” a delicious relationship that you’ll enjoy! 

(1) KNOW THAT MARRIAGE IS A LOVE AFFAIR.

“How fair and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights!”(Song of Solomon 7:6)

Marriage is a pleasant and delightful union just like Cake is a delicious thing. Have this at the back of your mind always. Relate with your Spouse with the purpose of creating sweet and memorable experiences and not pain.

(2) DAILY POUR ENERGY AND RESOURCES INTO MAKING YOUR MARRIAGE SWEET After marriage, some misguided and ignorant Spouses sneak aside and start what’s called “Extramarital Affairs”. The name is well coined because this fake relationship

is illegal and illegitimate, which is why they hide. The women involved are called side-chicks, showing how inferior they are because the REAL CHICK, who is a  Queen, is in the man’s home and bears his name openly. But the sad thing is these foolish Spouses spend a fortune to maintain these inferior and diseased women; not to talk of the time and energy they waste. Why not channel all that into your marriage: invest in marriage retreats and Love vacations for you and your wife? What’s wrong with celebrating your marriage anniversary twice or even thrice in a year if you can afford it? Doing so will make your marriage get sweeter and sweeter!

(3) ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT SPOUSES ARE MARRIED LOVERS Functioning as Married Lovers begins with the knowledge of the fact that Marriage is meant by God to be a sizzling, fervent and blazing Love Affair in which the Couple express towards each other a deeper and higher level of affection, compassion, respect, passion and intimacy than what they had during their honeymoon.

Your honeymoon was good but you’re supposed to go higher in the love life!

You created the first honeymoon, remember? You can create a new and better honeymoon every new day. How? By putting up good, pleasant and non provocative conduct everyday; by being practically good to your Partner, etc.

God’s will is that Spouses be in “High Voltage Love” with each other just as Christ and the Church are always in an unbroken flow of fervent, blazing Love!

(4) CREATE A LOVE AFFAIR ATMOSPHERE IN YOUR HOME AND AVOID BEING CRITICAL!!!

One of the things to do to have a Love Affair Marriage is creating a Love Affair Atmosphere in your home. You achieve this by being deliberately gracious and kindhearted to your Spouse and treating them as you treat yourself. Let me explain this with an illustration.

When I returned home from an outing one day, I began pulling off a jacket I wore that had buttons on one of the shoulders. I’d gone far in pulling off the dress when I realized that I hadn’t unbuttoned the shoulder! If someone else had done that, I would probably have said: “Is the dress new to you? Didn’t you know that you ought to unbutton first?” We’re so quick to dish out blame when it’s someone else’s mistake. But you know what? I wasn’t angry with myself neither did I blame myself. I just said: “Oh, it’s a mistake!” And that’s how we ought to easily dismiss our Mate’s mistakes too.

So, to have a Love Affair Atmosphere in your Marriage, you must love your Spouse as you love yourself; and treat them as you treat yourself.

Don’t heat up the Home with unkind words and negative attitudes. Don’t create heartaches by harsh and critical remarks. Be generously gentle to your Partner! It’s not every mistake that you must open your mouth and deliver a Lecture to correct! Silence is indeed golden very many times. And when you keep silence for peace sake, God steps in to make the necessary corrections and His corrections yield best and permanent results.
