Key passage:
He who finds a wife finds what is good
and receives favor from the Lord.
Proverbs 18:22
The topic I received today from Jesus is: Love and cherish your wife then you know what is good!
Today's Proverbs 18:22 gives us another advice on using our tongue wisely, but this time is to our spouse. We need to use our tongue wisely in order that we can listen more, accept more, forgive more, build up more and to establish a more intimate relationship with God and with each others.
Especially in this dark world, lots of people cannot control their tongues and have brought quite a number of serious damages to their marriage.
According to some statistics, the rate of divorce has been rising drastically the past six and a half years since the beginning of the pandemic. The destruction force of the tongue is beyond we can estimate and can think of!
One of Satan's main job is to destroy the relationship of husbands and wives. How can we as human beings be able to win over Satan's power?!
So, the only way is both husband and wife be willing to be close to God so that they can be more closer together. Then, Satan has no way to jam in!
We need to start our first step to get rid of Satan's pursue. The catch I received from Jesus today is for the couple to hold hands to pray before they go to sleep. Just this simple act will bring protection and lots of blessings!
Then, if you want to have the second step, my catch today is that both husband and wife start to have Time with Abba scribing God's word from the Bible and then pray together. Wow! If you can do that, I do not think Satan will have any way to sever your relationship with your spouse!
Dear Lord Jesus,
Today's Proverbs 18:22 gives us another advice on using our tongue wisely, but this time is to our spouse. We need to use our tongue wisely in order that we can listen more, accept more, forgive more, build up more and to establish a more intimate relationship with God and with each others.
Especially in this dark world, lots of people cannot control their tongues and have brought quite a number of serious damages to their marriage.

Reflect on these questions:
1. What inspiration have you received from today's catch and what have you heard from Jesus now?
2. What is your next step to be more closer to Jesus, to be holy - that is to do what Jesus wants you to do and not to do what Jesus wants you not to do? Family Corner: Find an opportunity to share with your family the importance of today's message.
