KING-SIZE LIBERALITY IN MARRIAGE

Scripture:
‘THE LIBERAL SOUL SHALL BE MADE FAT: AND HE THAT WATERETH SHALL BE WATERED ALSO HIMSELF.’
(PROVERBS 11:25)

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนThe relationship of Christ and the Church is set forth as the example or model for all Spouses to follow.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนAn important aspect of the relationship of Christ and His Church is GIVING.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนChrist gives and gives to the Church. Infact, He began by giving Himself for the redemption of the Church. And ever since, He has been giving ceaselessly to the Church.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนBy His liberality we have become not just saved souls but children of God, kings, priests, joint heirs with Him and so much more!

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนThe Church also loves Christ fervently and continually gives Him worship, adoration, praise, obedience, services and submission. The Church loves Him continually and has suffered persecutions, hatred and afflictions for His sake for centuries and still remains totally loyal to Him.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนAs you can see, there is a high level of love, commitment and liberality on both sides. That’s how it should be in your marriage.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนNote that as Christ and the Church give to each other, none of them loses. Christ is winning and the Church is getting bigger and stronger on the earth and conquering her enemies.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนIt’s just as our anchor scripture says: the liberal soul shall be made fat. In giving, you’re increased and enlarged instead of diminishing as some fear.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนInfact, the second part of our anchor scripture says that the man who waters another shall also be watered! So, you don’t lose when you are liberal.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนIn many marriages, some Spouses are deliberately restrained in their giving to their partner. They are economical with information. They’re careful with how they give their time, help, assistance and support. Worst of all, they’re highly economical with their love assets: their body and their sexuality. When you do these, you’re silently and foolishly strangulating your marriage.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนMy question is: as you’re miserly and tightfisted and refuse to give freely to your Spouse, who exactly are you saving your love assets for?

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนTrue Lovers know that the best way to give to their Beloved is to give in king-size proportions. And that’s exactly what our anchor scripture teaches.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนYou want to grow fat and fresh in that marriage? Then stop being tightfisted to your Mate. Stop counting how many times you’ve already given and how your partner hasn’t even given for once. Don’t look at your partner. Look at the Scripture!

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนWife, throw away all those lies you’ve heard that if you give your body to your husband extravagantly he’ll see you as a cheap woman and that he’ll no more respect you. Go against that lie. Give yourself liberally to him and you’ll be fattened in that Marriage.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนHusband, give your total love and commitment to your wife. Court her, adore her and celebrate her! Give her your time, attention and affection. Listen to her. Forget the children sometimes and be her boyfriend, lover and sweetheart.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนTake her out as much as your wallet allows. Yes, spoil her silly with love and appreciation. Not even for her to thank and appreciate you but as an expression of your love and allegiance to her. And as you do, God’s Word will cause your life to experience divinely orchestrated fattening!!!

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนFinally, note that the second part of our anchor scripture has a striking application to couples. This is because in the Bible, Sex is referred to as WATER(Proverbs 5:15).

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนOur anchor scripture tells us that he who waters another shall be watered. So watering your mate sexually and doing so faithfully and liberally will activate a divine watering of your own life too.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนGive to each other. When you give to your husband or wife you’re actually giving to yourself. It’s as simple as that.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนIn conclusion, hear this: you won’t always have your spouse to give to. So, give to them now while you’re with each other. It’s a privilege and opportunity you should fully utilize.

๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ‡๐ŸŒนStop hoarding your material and love assets. Give them liberally to each other and see your marriage grow tall and strong like the Cedar of Lebanon.
