A Husband's Responsibility - Successful marriage tips for men | Derek Prince

What is a husband's responsibility? Derek Prince shares successful marriage tips for men and distinguishes five responsibilities of a husband:
1. As husband, love your wife - as Christ loved the Church (Ephesians 5:25).
2. Be the head of the wife and children (1 Corinthians 11:3) - that means (1) receive input from the family, (2) make decisions, (3) initiate action and (4) give ongoing direction.
3. Provide to your wife and family - which means more than just financially provision (1 Timothy 5:8).
4. Wash your wife with God's Word - wash your wife and kids with the Word of God (Ephesians 5:26).
5. It is a husband's responsibility to nourish and cherish your wife (Ephesians 5:29).
This is the sixth clip, part of Derek Prince's full sermon 'Husbands', in which Derek shares marriage tips for men and women. Derek says: our marriage was not perfect, but it was successful. Full video: • Husbands & Wives | Der...

Where are the men who desire to do these things the best they can? I would like to tell you thank you! And for those are learning to do this as well, I respect you for willing to change and live according to the word of God.

[@AndyCopperfield]

Men cannot be these things because of femanism. Woman have fought for equality and achieved it over the past five decades. If the man is the "head" of the home that means he is appointed above his wife thus not equal and then women complain of inequality. Women also are in the workforce now with equal pay as men and graduating college at a higher rate than men, how can men be providers when women are making just as much as men if not more? You ladies got what you've fought for, Stop complaining that men are not what you want them to be.

So what if a husband can't provide for his family due to a injury or sickness? Are they biblically doing something wrong? I know of families that husband's can't work no more and the wife becomes the provider for the family. Is there anything wrong with that biblically?

John 10:34-38 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV) 34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? 35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken; 36 say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? 37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. 38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him. Psalm 82 A Psalm of Asaph. 1 God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods. 2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked?

[@framboise595]

@@amberrose1108 More unscriptural crap. Where has 1 Peter 3 gone ? Those modern Christians who make it al about the female (first in sin and trangression) carefully avoid to say that HER conduct is what can win her husband to salvation. But modern Christians don't care about men's salvation anymore since they make it all about the woman as if the woman was the new idol.

[@mantleofelijah]

Ultimately you have to decide whether to obey God or the demons in your husband. If your marriage isn’t a biblical one and your husband refuses to repent and change his ways then you do need to leave for the sake of your soul. If you are under his demons you are in danger. Naturally years of prayer come first and speaking to the Lord. He will give you peace about what to do and he will make a way in the wilderness.

[@framboise595]

@@mantleofelijah More unscriptural advice as usual since everything revolves now around goddess woman , the new idol of fake christianity. Where has 1 Peter 3 gone in this day and age ? Where has the conduct of the WIFE gone ? The Bible always focuses way more on the conduct of the woman towards the man than the other way round. But modern preachers have just turned everything upside down. Nothing is more male-centric than the Bible : the woman is made for the man and because of him. It is crystal clear when we read the Bible. You have things like a Proverbs 31 wife but you have NO male equivalent.

[@amberrose1108]

@@michaelbruner3511 what type of work did you used to do?

[@mantleofelijah]

Fast and pray. A serious fast 7 days to 21 days. Jesus said that some demons only come out with prayer and fasting. When job loss is that prolonged there is a strongman (powerful demon) of lack and poverty on your life that needs to be broken off. Because yes you should be working, there are jobs out there, even if it means moving or starting your own business in a simple way. Please do the fast. I am involved in a 21 day fast (only water for 21 days but lots of prayer) and everyone on it has had miracles of provision, new jobs, healing, bank accounts filled - whatever they have needed. God commands us to do it, it’s not a suggestion , just as providing for your family is not a suggestion and he hugely rewards us for it. He will give you the strength.

If the fall was that early, before man had been even created, how then does God call all of creation very good at the end of creation?!? Gen 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. EVERYTHING was VERY GOOD, not just somethings! There was no gap (Gap Theory) between Gen 1:1 and Gen 1:2. That was a false doctrine introduced after Evolution became popular in the late 1800's to try and make a perfectly good Bible agree with the corruption that is Evilution.
