Faith Lived Out ~ God’s Wisdom for Marriage & Becoming a Submissive Wife

78 ~ How to Know the Still Small Voice of God ~ Part 1

Does God really speak to us today? And if He does, how do we know it’s Him? How do we know that it’s not just our own wishful thinking or weird notions that we have. Can Satan or his minions put thoughts in our minds. And if so, how do we recognize those thoughts and know what the truth really is?
 
There are differing characteristics between God, us, and the enemy that can help us in determining where our thoughts are coming from. If we are truly hearing from God, being led astray by the enemy or seeking to fill our own sinful desires.
 
If you are searching for what the next right step is? If you have thoughts and question if it’s God who is leading you in this direction? Then join me today as we discover how to know the still small voice of God.
 
Let’s get started!

77 ~ How To Be The Wise Woman Who Builds Her Home

As woman, we have the ability and the calling by God to set the tone of our homes. Proverbs 14:1 tells us;
“Every wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pulls it down with her hands.”
 
We all want to be wise and to build our house, but what does this look like exactly. What foolish things is God talking about here that would cause us to pull our houses down? Could some of us be doing this, tearing our houses down little by little without even realizing it?
 
Join me as we take a look at scripture to learn how to be the wise woman who builds her home.
 
Let’s get started.

Join me as we take a look at money, trust, and marriage. What the root of the problems that you’re facing may be and how to fix them.

So join me today for a look at the biblical principles of tithes and offerings, how to do this as a married couple, as well as what scripture teaches us about God's economy.

74 ~ What It Looks Like to Respect Your Husband and How You May Be Disrespecting Him Without Even Realizing It ~ Part 2

In this episode, we will continue our look at what it means to genuinely respect our husbands. What it looks like in our every day lives.
 
As I’ve said before, we are not only called by God to do this, but our husbands need us to show them respect in the same way that we need them to show us love. It’s a part of how God designed the marriage relationship.
 
If we don’t take the time to learn this, to truly apply God‘s word to our marriages, then we will continue to have problems. But, if we can get this right, if we can learn to respect our husbands and trust Christ in this, it will a game changer in our relationship.

Ladies, if we don't fully understand what it is to respect our husbands, we will continue to have problems. But, if we get this right, it will make all the difference in the world in our marriages.
 
Our husbands need this from us as much as we need them to show they love us.

72 ~ Unequally Yoked Marriage: From a Wife Who's Been There with Guest Melody Allen

Unequally yoked marriage is one of the most challenging situations a Christian wife can face, and in this episode, I sit down with my friend Melody Allen, a wife who has lived it firsthand. Melody shares with honesty and grace what years of being married to a non-believer has taught her, including the tactics she tried that pushed her husband further away, and the biblical approach rooted in 1 Peter 3:1-2 that is actually working.
Whether you married a non-believer knowing what Scripture said, or your husband has walked away from the Lord, this conversation is for you. God's grace meets you exactly where you are, and His Word gives you a clear and powerful path forward.
In this episode, you will discover:
Why the tactics most wives try in an unequally yoked marriage tend to backfire
What 1 Peter 3:1-2 teaches about winning your husband without a word
How to stay submissive and respectful when your husband does not share your faith
How the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23 becomes a daily survival tool
Why building a strong support system is essential for wives in this situation
You'll probably want to take some notes on this one, so grab your pen and paper and let's get started.
 
If this episode blesses you, please leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Your review helps other Christian wives find this teaching when they need it most.

71 ~ Abigail ~ A Picture of Strength, Faith, and Confidence in a Difficult Marriage

We are told in various places of scripture to have faith and to be strong and courageous. In most cases this is said when men are about to fight in some kind of battle or to take over a people or land. 
 
But in 1 Samuel we read about a woman who showed great strength, faith and confidence in her marriage to a man that scripture describes as being harsh and evil in his doings.
 
The woman’s name is Abigail and as we study her story and her character, I pray that you draw strength, hope, and confidence from her example.
 
Let’s get started.
