Write Colossians 3:23-24 from memory. Pray for Israel today. 2. Define submission. 3. Submission of a wife is not the absence of a voice. If we rewrite this statement, then true submission would be the presence of a voice. This is where many marriages struggle as the voices spoken are so disrespectful and harsh. They destroy the testimony of the marriage and they promote death throughout the marriage. How spouses talk with each other becomes how the children talk to each other and soon to be how the children speak to the parents. The testimony of a marriage can be lost in a minute when the respect for one’s spouse is abandoned for your emotions and your feelings, all in the awful words of that is just the way I am. If that is just the way you are then please two hand claps and a CHANGE. Why do you think people speak ugly and harshly to their spouse? 4. Write a prayer asking the Lord Jesus Christ to protect your words and guard your thoughts regarding how you speak to your spouse. Ask for the lead of the Holy Spirit through every part of your day and night with regards to your words. Ask for strong conviction when your words are not edifying. 5. Define edifying. 6.
