Day 246 Honoring My Husband by Experiencing God

Several years ago I graduated from a three year discipleship program at my church. One of the books we used was called Experiencing God.  It was intended to help us shift from knowing the word of God to believing and acting upon the word of God.  One day I was perusing a book store and came across a similar book called Experiencing God Together by the same authors.  So of course I could not resist it.  I have had that book for at least four years and came across it this year.  It has some great togetherness lessons for couples to grow in Christ together. 

Today I am honoring my husband by Experiencing God through his word.  It shares the passage Proverbs 2: 1-11 and through this passage I honor my husband today.

My son, if you will receive my sayings,

And treasure my commandments within you

Make your ear attentive to wisdom

Incline your heart to understanding;

For if you cry for discernment,

Lift your voice for understanding;

If you seek her as silver,

And search for her as for hidden treasures;

Then you will discern the fear of the Lord,

And discover the knowledge of God.

For the Lord gives wisdom;

From His mouth come knowledge and understanding,

He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;

He is a shield to those who walk in integrity,

Guarding the paths of justice

And He preserves the way of His godly ones.

Then you will discern righteousness and justice

And equity and every good course.

For wisdom will enter your heart,

And knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;

Discretion will guard you,

Understanding will watch over you.

This passage allows us to know that God desires to give us wisdom and show us His purpose for our lives.  We are to be prepared to receive all that God teaches us through the Holy Spirit. Today I am honoring my husband by Experiencing God's word so I can continue to be clear on his desires for me in honoring Him and my husband.

Wives of the world how can you honor your husband by Experiencing  God today?  How do you allow the Lord to speak with you and give you wisdom to be the wife or woman he called you to be?  What can you do to honor the man in your life today by "Experiencing God".  Please share your stories with us; we would love to hear from you.

Blessings,

Rochelle
