A Godly Marriage?

Dr. W.H. Penewit

A Godly Marriage?A Godly Marriage?

A Godly Marriage…what does it look like? Where can you find it? Can we actually recognize a godly marriage?

I remember watching “Leave it to Beaver” and seeing what a good marriage looked like, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen that in reality.

There are things that stand out in  godly marriage and it’s not something that is an easy thing to do.

How do you recognize a Godly marriage?

I once heard my spiritual father Kenneth Copeland make a statement that I will never forget,

It’s something that I live my life by minute by minute…

He said:

“There are two things that successful people do and they do these things often and they do them quickly”

  1. They repent quickly They waste no time repenting the second they make a mistake.
  2. They forgive quickly They are “forgiveness machines” who are instant to forgive anyone and everyone who have wronged them.

Can you see where this is going?

If you think about it you can see it…asking for and giving forgiveness can be the beginning of a happy marriage.

I just want to be heard

I’m sure that there are times in your marriage where you just wanted to be heard…to be validated

Its during times like this that the tension begins to rise in a relationship. \

If you don’t feel heard then you dont feel validated.

Giving your mate patience and listening while they may be “venting” shows love and that they are important to you.

I’ve tried “listening” and it doesn’t work!

So you’ve tried this and it doesnt work for me…how do I di it?

Every human being is unique and different from every other human being.

Each person has a Temperament and withing this Temperament are Temperament needs.

Does your mate need physical closeness? This can be be a great way to communicate,

but without knowing your mates exact temperament it will only be an educated guess.

Start with The Penewit Institute…we can show you exactly how God ‘wove” you to be and once you learn that about each other…your marriage will never be the same.
