Love Your Family Supernaturally

PRAY OVER THIS

“Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:16

 

PONDER THIS

I have some tips for getting your marriage back on track: first, decide to live for Christ. Give your heart to the Lord Jesus Christ. If you have failed or sinned, bring it to Him. Isaiah 1:18 says, “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” When you come to Him, He will forgive; He will not hold grudges. He will bury every stain, every blot, every blur, and every blemish in the grave of God’s forgetfulness. Come to Jesus, and I promise you on the authority of the Word of God, He will cleanse you.

Now it's important to decide to live for Christ and depend on Christ. Let His life in you energize you and give you power. He doesn’t merely forgive you and then say, “Now do better.” He comes to live in you, to energize you, to give you power day by day. Finally, begin to pour out your love to Christ and your family. Love God and love your spouse with a supernatural love. Anyone who chooses to love can love. The Bible says, “Husbands, love your wives” (Ephesians 5:25). That’s not a suggestion; it’s a command. Decide to love and then devote yourself to a love for God and a love for your family.

How has dependence on God changed your relationship with others?

How has Jesus given you life and energy when you needed it?

PRACTICE THIS

Spend some time talking to God about the areas of life where you need to depend on Him more.
