War Room for Courageous Wives ⚔️❤️

Do you ever get tired of praying for your husband or your marriage? Some of you may have been in prayer about many things including praying for your husband or seeing change in your marriage, and I feel encouraged to tell you to KEEP PRAYING! Don't lose hope just because you do not see answers… rather keep praying and petitioning in faith that God is moving! It is God's will for you to continually pray. Do not let the hardships, the trials, and the negative emotions that rise, keep you from praying or spending time with God. Continue to seek after God daily, whether your husband does or not. Pray for your husband and wait on God. Make sure you are being intentional about growing as a Godly wife and remain in faith, hope and love that your husband will too. Know that God cares about the transformation of our character! Sometimes we endure really painful seasons so that He can refine us. So ask God how He is refining you!

God Will Vindicate You Exodus 14:14 AMP “The Lord will fight for you while you [only need to] keep silent and remain calm.” Let God work your problems out. If you try to figure out how God will bring healing in your life or situations, you will only be met with confusion and frustration. Instead of worrying about how God will heal you or pay your debts or help you find a job or a spouse, simply thank Him and praise Him for doing that thing in your life and consider it done in His perfect timing. If you do this, keep the faith that God will do it for as long as it takes, and watch how God will provide in the process.

Take your thoughts captive The devil plays such tricks with our minds. It may be something you struggle with as well. We can convince ourselves that something is the truth only because of the way we have made it appear in our minds. The Bible has a lot to say about our thoughts. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think about such things. Philippians 4:8 The Lord knows the thoughts of man; he knows that they are futile. Psalm 94:11 Search me, O God, and know my heart, test me and know my anxious thoughts. Psalm 139:23 Speak Life This is not the first or even second time this year that I am sharing a post on the power of what we speak, which signals this is something that the Spirit of God wants us to settle within ourselves. You have a choice to either speak life or speak death to the situations and circumstances in your life. Speaking life means speaking in consent with the Word of God, speaking faith-filled words, speaking words that build, words that are fruitful, words that manifest God's will and purpose for your life. Evaluate what you let into your spirit. Do not put vile things before your eyes. Do not poison yourself. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things.

Does God want His people to have a happy marriage? Absolutely! I truly think He does. Above all He wants obedience. Obeying God won't guarantee you a happy marriage, but it will give you all the ingredients for joy and hope in the midst of the mess. I made a choice to love God and obey Him, and that is when I saw a change. It was hard. It was work. It still is. I stopped focusing on making my marriage better. I stopped thinking about how to make my husband happy or how he could make me happy. Instead, I turned my attention and focus on God. I prayed for strength to be obedient. I prayed for joy when I felt despair. When I felt God prompt me through His Word or the quiet whisper of the Spirit, I obeyed. It was like putting on a pair of blindfolds and saying, ‘Okay God, lead. I'm following.' Obedience meant apologizing. It meant changing my tone or keeping quiet, to begin with. It meant bringing him a can of coke. Each day God gave me something to do as an act of worship to Him and it often looked like blessing my husband or refining my character. We are told in James 1:5 “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” It's important that you follow this example in your marriage. Take your marital problems to God, and ask Him for His wisdom. It's easy to dwell on the bad, but during this time, focus on the positive.

Dealing with difficult people is something everyone faces. We all have someone who is, well, difficult. Rick Warren coined it best when he referred to difficult people as “extra grace required” people. Knowing someone difficult is easy. Dealing with difficult people is the hard part. The worst part is the dread that precedes any gathering where your difficult person will be present. Difficult people can be critical, with negative comments directed at you. It may be someone who is demanding, insisting things be done a certain way (AKA their way). Maybe, you have a difficult person in your life who is manipulative or controlling. Whatever challenge comes with your difficult person, keep these 3 truths about God in mind.

Predictability feels comfortable and reassuring. Change feels scary. And I am not a fan of it.

Life is not predictable. There are ups and downs along the way. Many of us want to trust God. When times are good, it can feel easier. But when times feel difficult, it is even more important to trust God. God’s unchanging character can give us a firm foundation when things feel unsteady and uncertain. Life can be going along smoothly for a season. Your job is satisfying. Your friends and family are enjoyable. Your goals, finances, health and outlook seem bright. Then, all of a sudden, life throws a curveball. Someone you know gets sick. You lose your job. A friend or family member betrays you. The things you felt secure in all of a sudden feel shaky and uncertain. How do you trust that God is good in these circumstances? How do you trust Him when you do not understand what is happening? When you cannot see a resolution? These are valid questions, and God wants to help you navigate them. Stay Connected w/ us via Linktree: linktr.ee/JessicaAdebiyi

Even when the worst possible thing happens, God's love is still greater and He will give you the strength to face it. Fear is not the end of the story, it's the beginning of one.

Anxiety is a species of fear. It’s the paralyzing fear of “what if.” It’s the fear that something we dread might possibly come true. There’s only one solution to anxiety: the assurance everything is going to be okay. But the world gives us no such assurances. We find ourselves surrounded by myriad real dangers resulting in an endless list of “what if.” It’s no wonder human beings are so afflicted with anxiety. And our anxieties only increase our misery by adding countless imagined dangers to the very real ones in front of us. But God. God the Son stepped into this dangerous, demonic world, where even man’s greatest efforts to ensure safety are ultimately and decidedly defeated by death. And when he did, he made the most audacious claim ever uttered by human lips: for every person who believes in him, everything is going to be ultimately, gloriously, eternally, inexpressibly, wonderfully okay (John 3:16; 11:25–26). Then to demonstrate the reality of his claim, and therefore its trustworthiness, he decidedly defeated death and announced “all authority in heaven and on earth” had been given to him (Matthew 28:18).

God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, 'I love you.' -- Billy Graham. God's love is very personal toward you. It doesn't matter where you've been, it doesn't matter what you've done, it doesn't matter what you've experienced - God loves you. It doesn't matter what you have thought about yourself or what other people may have said about you - God loves you. This is what God says about you! You are honored, you are precious in His eyes (Isaiah 43:4). Isn't that an amazing thing? It is the very depth of God’s character to love, and as believers, our character must reflect God’s character. Loving God entails loving others. The two are inextricably bound—you cannot love God and NOT love others. In fact, God’s love does not limit us to loving only those who love us back, our family or close friends, or others who belong to the body of believers. Why would Jesus command us to do such a thing? Because that is exactly what God has done for us. Romans 5:8 says, “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” And to make sure we truly understand what that means, Paul the Apostle emphasizes in Romans 5:10, “For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!” God loved us when we were not only unlovely, but when we were His enemies. And it was this love—His sacrificial love—that saved us in the midst of our sinfulness. Since the Lord loved us in this way, so we too, as His followers, are to love our neighbor (the sinful, unlovely, and enemy) in this way as well. The good news is that whatever God commands, He enables us to do.

The first step to an anxiety-free mind is to give your life to Jesus Christ. Once you’ve taken that step, it’s important to fix your thoughts on Jesus and the promise that He is preparing a place for His followers in heaven (John 14:2-3). Listen for some resources meant to help you overcome fear and anxiety and live life the way Jesus teaches us—a life full of faith, truth, hope, peace and joy

For those who are new to their faith, prayer can seem daunting and overwhelming. How do I talk to God? What does that even mean? Are there things I’m supposed to say? Are there things I’m not allowed to say? Is there a set prayer or do I just make one up? Even for those who have been in a relationship with the Lord for many years, prayer can still seem challenging for a whole host of reasons. It can get stale, feel useless, fall to the wayside, or just seem to lose its power. So what do we do when we need new words to pray? How we can we revitalize our prayer lives? Here are some ideas!

A relationship with God is the most life-giving relationship possible. If you’ve never done so, we encourage you to invite God into your life. If you did at one time but the relationship has gone stale, we encourage you to renew that invitation. When God sees you moving toward him, he finds you and the rest of the relationship between you will come naturally. This process of inviting God into your life and having him meet you may seem odd and confusing, but you’ll just have to trust us on it until you experience it for yourself. The Bible says, “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.” (Proverbs 16:3, NIV) I believe it’s crucial to develop the good habit of inviting God into all of our plans from day one, whatever they may be. God absolutely loves to take ordinary people and use them to accomplish the extraordinary. But one of the prerequisites is walking hand-in-hand with Him. Whatever your day holds, consult God first and foremost. He is the very best of counselors! Stay Connected w/ us via Linktree: linktr.ee/JessicaAdebiyi

Forgiveness is a huge stumbling block for so many, but we all are called upon to forgive in our lives. Some things are minor and easy to forgive...other things are so egregious, that it is only through God’s grace and strength that we are able to forgive. If we choose to live with unforgiveness, it can impact us emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually. Praying sincerely for those who hurt, betrayed, or offended you does do Kingdom wonders! It aligns your heart to the Father's heart of mercy. ❤❤❤ #spokenfromexperience Stay Connected w/ us via Linktree: linktr.ee/JessicaAdebiyi

They should reflect our unique personality and passions. And we arrive at them via different avenues. But these ten steps to goal setting can guide us as we circle our life goals. Prayer is the best way to jump-start the process of goal setting. I highly recommend a personal retreat or season of fasting. If you set goals in the context of prayer, there is a much higher likelihood that your goals will glorify God, and if they don’t glorify God, then they aren’t worth setting in the first place. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

This love has been on display in a multitude of ways in our marriage. What God desires for us is better than what we desire for ourselves. As Christians, when we come to God in the brokenness of our sin and ask him to save us by faith he does! But he does not leave us as we are. God shapes us and molds us into the image of His Son, Jesus Christ (Romans 8:29-30). While the outcome is always good, sometimes the means by which God uses the Holy Spirit to make us more like Jesus can be hard. It’s through building a relationship with Him do we understand His will for our lives, which enables us to have access to its greatness by operating from a place of victory! From that victory, we are standing on our faith in God. As a result, we’re able to truly love unconditionally as Christ does us. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Our flesh is quick to serve itself and we want to be served by others. Just as our salvation was not secured by our own strength, neither are our good works. Like Paul said, it is “not [our] own doing; it is the gift of God” (Eph. 2:8). In today’s show we chat with Gloria Warren of The Eloquent Wife on many different topics from allowing God to deal with us and guide us daily as wives, making internal transformations, God using couples to build each other, protecting your peace, and so much more!

The goal of the life of a Christ-follower is to please the Lord in whatever we do. We can and should apply this as foundational to the life of discipleship. But consider widening its scope to include your marriage–to have the goal of pleasing God with your marriage. Here is the choice—are you going to respond with love in a way that pleases God, or react to the emotions of the moment? By making it our goal to please God in our marriages, we will show the world that marriage can have a higher purpose. The world watches to see the difference the love of God can make in our relationships. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

If you find yourself in this kind of marriage, please don’t lose hope. Marriage first and foremost is a spiritual relationship between 3(you,God, and your spouse). It works best when two people are connected individually to God, walking with Him, obeying Him in the Scripture, and praying as individuals and as a couple. If you push the spiritual dimension to the side, you are ignoring the very God who created marriage and the One who can help you make it work. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

We can have victory by immersing ourselves in the Word of God and praying. We must grow in the Lord. We must apply the Word of God to our lives on a daily basis. God has given us a weapon, a sword, God’s Word to defeat the enemy as Jesus did in Luke 4. The enemy will have to flee when we speak God’s Word. We need to walk in the righteousness of God which is a weapon of defense against all the tricks, schemes and accusations from the devil. We must walk in faith and trust God as He is our shield of faith every day. Hold up our shield of faith daily. It will block all the fiery darts of the evil one when our shield of faith is soaked with the Word of God which is in us. The fiery darts will be extinguished.
