Wives 30-Day Prayer Challenge - Day 3


Peace be still! Do you have peace in your home? In your relationship? Or do you feel like your marriage is in PEICES?

There are times when I feel so fractured as a wife. Not that I am incompete, but perhaps....chipped might be  a better word. When things are not put together in a right way it disturbs the peace of a relationship. The opposite of peace is unrest or war. Soldiers are needed in a warfare. Women, we are soldiers on our homes and our battleground is when our feet hit the floor (or before!).

In the word of God I am reminded that the weapons of this warfare are not carnal (Ephesians 6), but are supernatural. Not only that, but the Prince of PEACE has already won this battle for us! We need to proclaim, decree and declare the peace that has already been given.

Here are some prayer points that I am praying over my husband today:

1. Peace of mind
2. Peaceful spirit
3. Peaceful sleep
4. Peace in decision-making
5. Financial peace
6. Peaceful parenting
7. Peace in his physical body

Here is the scope for today: http://katch.me/NONSuperwoman/v/5bf18a56-b26a-383a-bd3c-1a2d10834019

Reviewing Nine Books I Read in 2016

Image
My goal for the year was to read 12 books in 2016. I have finished nine of them to date and want to share my reviews with you. I have made similar goals in the past and have yet to complete them 100%. However, my only competition is against myself, so I guess I earn the "Most Improved" award in this category.


I love non-fiction books and self-help. I read a lot from christian authors and I am an author myself. I have been told that better readers are better writers. Let's hope that is true! So with no further ado, here is my list:
1. Returning to Holiness by Gregory R. Frizzell

I started 2016 with fasting and prayer, personal repentance and what I like to call a Spiritual Retreat. I retreated away from family, social media and work to press into a time of refreshing from the Lord with this book. Needless to say....it WRECKED m whole life! The soul-searching questions were just what I needed to plunge deep into the reasons behind my actions, my motivations and my fears. E…

Staying married over the Holidays

Image
When we first got married the holidays were the best times for us. We look forward to meeting each other's families and growing relationships. Then it was the children! Oh boy, what fun it was to share our newborn bundles with everyone. There was plenty of picture taking and sharing stories.
Then, as our family grew, it was a matter of who was hosting during the holiday season. Who has an apartment large enough? Who has a house? How many people can you accommodate? There was always a question about the food. Who is bringing what? So and so is a vegetarian, pescetarian or they're just a super picky eater. "I don't like the way she/he makes this/that". Then there was the matter of the activities. What are we going to do after we eat? Should we watch a movie? Should we have a singalong? Share testimonies? Maybe we should read a Bible verse or two since we are christians and everything.
After a while, holidays can get to be a hassle because it is more of a chore th…

Annual Marriage Accounting & Evaluation

Image
It would not be strange to have an end-of-the-year job evaluation.  We are used to assessments in other areas of our lives,  but why should marriage any different? Let's score how well we did this year.

Using the Bible itself as a reference point, we can objectively grade ourselves and our marriages on performance as a spouse and as a couple.

First, let us set the benchmarks. Read Ephesians 5:21-32, KJV.

Husbands represent Christ. The goal is to be like Jesus. How is a guy supposed to meet that standard?! Well...the Bible doesn't say to BE Jesus, but to love LIKE Jesus. How have you loved this year?

Wives represent the Church. They are to follow after Christ & submit to Him. Rate your submission to your husband in areas where he is being Christ-like. Did you make it hard for him to love you this year?

Like a business that has to re-evaluate in the fourth quarter, we should take stock of how our marriages have grown. Did we yield a good return or did our marriage market cr…
