Ephesians 5:15-33 As we continue our series on healthy relationships we now turn our attention to the role of husbands. Principle #4- God has a clear design for how the family is to function. I. The Husband is the Leader who Loves.
(a passive husband will result in an over assertive wife.) A) Loves Sacrificially- meaning the husband, in love gives himself for his wife. 1. Spiritual- Time in prayer and the word. Three benefits - * "How can I pray for you? * She will see your need to depend on the Lord. * It sets the example for being the godly father. What are the advantages? - (see also Psalm 119:33) Every husband needs to be teachable. |
