I personally take God's Holy Word as the formost insight on how I as a man should conduct myself in, my relationship with God first, then the Family and just in general. He gave us this book (and He is the Author of it) to tell us, warn us, of how we should be living and what will happen when we ignore Him. (think about it one little dissobediance and you wander the desert for 40 years
) I have listed a few key verses before on how a husdand is to be and I will list them here again:
1PE 3:7 You husbands in the same way, live with
your wives in an understanding way, as with someone weaker, since she is a woman; and show her honor as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered.
MK 10:43 "But it is not this way among you, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant;
MK 10:44 and whoever wishes to be first among you shall be slave of all.
Ezr 7:10 For Ezra had devoted himself to the study and observance of the Law of the LORD, and to teaching its decrees and laws in Israel.
1CO 13:13 But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.
MT 6:21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
COL 3:12 So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience;
EPH 4:29 Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such
a word as is good for edification according to the need
of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear.
EPH 5:17 So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
EPH 5:18 And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,
EPH 5:19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;
EPH 5:20 always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;
EPH 5:21 and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ.
Marriage Like Christ and the Church
EPH 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body.
EPH 5:24 But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.
EPH 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her,
EPH 5:26 so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,
EPH 5:27 that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless.
EPH 5:28 So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself;
EPH 5:29 for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church,
EPH 5:30 because we are members of His body.
EPH 5:31 FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND SHALL BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH.
EPH 5:32 This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church.
EPH 5:33 Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband.
EPH 6:4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
and there are many more.
And I thakn you with a Humble heart and Spirit for the Prayer that you have for us (stubborn) men. We may not be prefect but through the Lords help I know that we (I know I am anyway) are trying.
Do not give up on us.
Thank you
Peace
, but just know that you will meet the woman God wants you to be with, if that is His will for you, and God has great plans for your life.
