THE HUSBAND’S MANDATE
There are, of course, many passages in the Bible that speak of the man's part in marriage. Some of the key passages are Genesis 3:16; Ephesians 5: 23-33: 1 Timothy 3:4,5; Psalm 128; 1 Peter 3:7: 1 Corinthians 7:3,4: Proverbs 5:15-19; Colossians 3:19. As I read these passages I hear God saying that the husband has two primary responsibilities to his wife.
1. He is to be his wife's leader.
2. He is to be his wife's lover.
Continuing the list--
8. A PRIORITY OF SHARING. A husband who believes his primary ministry is marriage will love his wife by allowing her really to share your life (1 Pet. 3:7-“heirs together of the grace of life”).
9. A PRIORITY OF LOYALTY. A husband who believes his primary ministry is marriage will express his love by refusing to compare her unfavorably with other people, especially other women.
10. A PRIORITY OF HER. A husband who believes his primary ministry is marriage will express his love by demonstrating to her that, apart from your relationship to Jesus Christ, she has first place in your life.
