It is possible to enjoy blissful family life. You just have to make God the centre of your heart and home. You have to be open to His words and follow His instructions. His Words, instructions or commandments are not grievous or burdensome (1 John 5:3). God made man with a desire to please and follow His will (Scripture). The Lord Jesus came to make it easier for man to follow and obey the Word of God. He says ‘come, all that labour… for my burden is light and my yoke is easy’ (Matt. 11:28). Instead of seeking to do things your way, doing them God’s way will give you the results you desire.
Come unto me all that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest…
Matthew. 11:28
Because family life originated from the Lord, He must be the centre of your family life to keep it alive. Countless people are having a near death experience in their family life. Some have had many wives and still are dissatisfied. Others are separated, while some live a cat and dog’s life, wishing that someone would deliver them from it. Yet, there are some who are enjoying family life and making a success of it. This is not just by luck. Success is not by luck; you programme yourself for success for indeed, it is possible to enjoy blissful family life.
As a born-again child of God, enjoying a blissful family is your birthright. It is God’s will and desire for you to enjoy an exciting marriage, an exciting home and family life. Apart from making God the centre of your family, the next thing you must understand is that family life is meant for bliss. It is meant for help, not hurt. The Bible says, ‘I will make him a help’ (Gen. 2:18). It further says, ‘Two are better than one’ (Eccl. 4:9).
Family life was created to help man and not hinder him; it is not meant to make life worse. If that is what you have been seeing in the lives and homes of others and maybe even yours, I declare to you that this is not what God desires for you. God’s desire is to help men through each other; through families. Change your mind and expect God’s desire to be fulfilled in your family. It can only get better.
Prayer: Father, I declare that You are the Lord over my relationship and marriage. Take Your place at the centre in the Name of Jesus, Amen.
