SUNDAY SNAPSHOT... (Man vs. Wife)

(Wk3) SAME PAGE...?

A lot of times MARRIAGES struggle is because we are clearly NOT on the "SAME PAGE!"

Get this... SAME PAGE with GOD = SAME PAGE with your SPOUSE!

If you're in a Marriage that's not on the SAME PAGE - there's a good chance that you're not on the SAME PAGE AS GOD! (This MUST happen first!)

If you're not on the SAME PAGE with God - please know this right now...

HE'S NOT GOING TO CHANGE HIS MIND ABOUT YOU!

He’s never going to say “YOU'RE RIGHT and HE’S WRONG!” (There is no middle ground!)

Have I mentioned... SAME PAGE with GOD = SAME PAGE with your SPOUSE!

If you can get that then you also need to know this...

REBELLION always happens when you and I – QUESTION THE WORD OF GOD!

Understand this please...

God's Sacrifice for YOU and ME on the CROSS allows those who were marked for DEATH the ability to walk away in FREEDOM!

This is called RECONCILIATION!

Truly understanding RECONCILIATION and what Jesus did for you allows you the ability to clearly see the potential of RECONCILIATION with your Spouse!

In case you've missed it...

SAME PAGE with GOD = SAME PAGE with your SPOUSE!

JESUS CHRIST PAID OUR DEBT SO THAT YOU AND I COULD BE ON THE “SAME PAGE” WITH GOD ALMIGHTY and with others as well - including your SPOUSE!

Come this Sunday and find out HOW getting on the "SAME PAGE" became possible!

SUNDAY SNAPSHOT... (Man vs. Wife)

Marriage isn’t as much about FINDING the right person - as much as it is about BECOMING the right person!

This is what MARRIAGE is all about... GENESIS 2:24

TWO BECOMING ONE!

-The great MYSTERY of Marriage!

-Only God can help make this happen!

Want a Happy Marriage?

Draw a LARGE circle of LOVE!

Allow the imperfections in your relationship to build PERFECTION!

Always be POSITIVE in your MARRIAGE... avoiding Criticism at all costs!

LOVE even if someone is UNLOVELY! (Eph 4:29)

Discover JOY in your MARRIAGE!

Happiness depends on HAPPENINGS - but JOY depends on CHRIST!

Your MARRIAGE is about PERSPECTIVE - it's not about who's RIGHT or WRONG but rather on WHO'S STILL IN CHARGE regardless of WHAT'S GOING ON!

Should you STAY or WALK AWAY in your Marriage?

Find out SUNDAY at COC why God thinks it's a good idea to STAY!

SUNDAY SNAPSHOT... (Man vs. Wife)

Week 1... Are you fighting IN it or FOR it?

BIG IDEA...

WHAT IF… God designed Marriage to make us HOLY more than to make us HAPPY?

Four Reasons Marriages are Failing - REFUSAL to...

1) Ask For Help!

2) Address YOUR Part of the Problem!

3) Change!

4) Learn!

Your MARRIAGE (or FUTURE MARRIAGE) will go beyond your imagination when you can focus on your RESPONSIBILITIES rather than your RIGHTS!

Read Philippians 2:1-11 and ask Jesus these two things...

1) To show you the areas you fall short in serving your spouse!

2) To allow you to see your spouse through His eyes!

Warning Sign In Your Marriage...

Are you finding yourself looking for more ways to spend MORE TIME with your SPOUSE or finding more ways to spend LESS TIME with your SPOUSE?

Wanna BE LIKE JESUS in your MARRIAGE?

Don't DEMAND AFFECTION from your SPOUSE – FIGHT FOR IT! (That's what Jesus did in His Relationship with YOU!)

Is your marriage even worth saving or are you both down for the count?

SUNDAY SNAPSHOT... (NOTW Parenting)

The most important thing in regards to PARENTING is not WHAT WE DO... but WHO WE ARE as a PARENT!

First Step to "NOTW" Parenting... LOVE

One of the best things you can do for your children is LOVE your husband or wife!

Second Step to "NOTW" Parenting... TIME

Have you taken the TIME to SHARE CHRIST with your child?

You don't have enough TIME not to do it!

Third Step to "NOTW" Parenting... DISCIPLINE

How do we instill HONOR into our Children?

Proverbs 1:7... Start with FEARING THE LORD!

Proverbs 1:7... “The beginning of Understanding is FEARING the Lord!”

REAL UNDERSTANDING comes from FEARING THE CONSEQUENCES!

If I can accomplish nothing else but this thought with my children - I believe that I'll have succeeded... “I’m not sure WHAT my parents were doing or thinking sometimes!? But I always knew my Dad and Mom LOVED ME and LOVED JESUS!!"

Please Remember...

God values your FAMILY but so does Satan!

Do your BEST - ALL THE TIME!

Don't miss COC tomm as we learn HIS PRINCIPLES in protecting them and discover "NOTW" Parenting!
