Tolerance in marriage

Impatience: Lean to be patience with your partner. This is very important. I will try to elaborate this. Especially when both of you are still in courtship waiting for the wedding day. Assuming your husband or wife to be keeps an appointment at 2pm and he fails to turn up at that particular time due to one thing or the other. You must know how to handle the situation and not full with anger on your face to the point of not even saying welcome, what kept you for so long and what have you. If you grow angry and decide you are not going again, remember he is studying your character.

Misunderstanding: Try as much as possible to understand each other. This will help your marriage to last. If your partner is the type that likes playing with friends as a jovial person, try to understand him. So that if you see him or her standing in front of another man or woman you don’t say, what does he take me for always talking with this or that person? Try and understand each other.

Unforgiving Spirit: You must learn to say sorry to each other no matter your position. Do not allow Satan to rule your heart by whispering to you she was the one or he was the one that offended me so he must first apologies. Act maturely as born again Christian. Do not keep malice with one another as children of God, so that your prayers will be answered.

Disagreement: Do not always be the one to say I do not buy the idea or I do not want it this way. You always come into agreement, as two cannot work together unless there is an agreement.

Pride: Do not say your salary is too low for my standard, how dear you talk to me like that or am more beautiful or handsome than you. Or you say don’t you see my position in my company? Your sincere love to each other should cover all.
Sexual sin: When the man continues seeing your nakedness he will be tired of the marriage and the urge for the wedding will not longer be there. The next thing you hear is that sister, sorry I am not longer interested. So be very wise before you get your self into a serious broken relationship, remember if you spoil your marriage you will never be a happy person.

Parental Objection: You must allow God to rule your heart for you to convince your parents that this man or woman is the will of God for you and I tell you they will not object your marriage and they will support your wedding.

Prayer-lessness : Be very prayerful during the time of your courtship and do not be weak as God will be revealing things to you that will make your marriage work. All because of seen and the unseen forces. May be the brother or the sister have been eying another brother or sister you intended to get married to and finally they hear that you are both going to marry each other. You will need serious prayers to stop every attack of Satan in your marriage. John 10:10 says (The thief comes only in order to steal, kill and destroy. I have come in order that you might have life in all its fullness.

Be convince about the marriage: If you have promise a brother or a sister to wait for each other, do not abandon the brother or sister and travel abroad while she is waiting for your return and you come back and say I am no longer interested.
Do not allow Satan to bring strange men or women your way to disappoint each other. It is better to say, I will not marry you than for you to allow him or her to wait for you and you come back and say negative words. It is very dangerous. Courtship is mean for the understanding of each other. There should be that complete openness and sincerity in love couple with tolerance, patience, agreement and faith in the word of God.
