The Most Important Word in Marriage - What I've learned over 49 years

[@kevinrosbrook1742]

Lost my wife to cancer after 35 years of marriage just last December , before she passed I told her that I wished I never raised my voice to her as it was rarely ever needed. I've also come to realize that not everyone has what we had and for that I am greatful to the Lord - my other advice is to always make big decisions together to avoid resentment , Men will take or make excuses when they do wrong to justify their actions ( I did ) If you still have that loved one hug them everyday and tell them how much you love them always ❤

[@freebirdmissouri8727]

So sorry for your loss 💙

[@krystalgoin]

I'm sorry for the loss of your wife. Your advice is good and I hope everyone who reads it learns from it or thinks about it when they are mad at their spouse, both the men and women.

[@charliewebb4330]

Amen Kevin

[@jessewestbrook9816]

I'm so sorry for you loss man. Thank you for your words of advice

[@watchmanman7268]

I will do that as soon as she walks into the coffee shop

[@geckoscout8524]

I love this man he is one of the only preachers that I've seen that are genuine

[@vickylanding2830]

Amen🙏🙏

[@rickmanley767]

As somebody that has been married for 34+ years myself, I agree. I’ve always loved my wife, but she has become more precious to me as the years have gone by.

[@JasonSchoeman]

I find you fascinating. Here you are, old enough to have the wisdom to teach others, smart enough to use technology to spread the Gospel. The gospel is preached to thousands, more than would have been possible before. You are one of those who know the love of God.

[@Jonny0926]

My mother used to say, "know someone through four seasons before you even think about getting engaged. I wish I'd listened to her AND my Dad.

[@divittoriofamily7353]

Met my husband at 16 back in 82 still together loving him more today then yesterday and we are 53

[@BobHarvey.]

After 44 years I love her more than words can describe. Thank you, my Lord Jesus.

[@sherrilbjalexander2856]

Good message. It's been 47 years for us and without the Lord we could do nothing. Blessings to you and yours. 8-)

[@dianetayman366]

We are 52 years married and he loved The Lord the last 7 years and it was such a honeymoon...then he passed away and the grief I carry is deep but I am so joyful for him... He is in Paradise.

[@georgejaquith4732]

I HAVEN'T HEARD PASTOR Pearl for awhile. It was comforting and challenging to get back to this inspired word. He is a true servant of the Lord.

[@yahisenough2137]

I truly enjoy his teaching. I've given my life to God almost 2years ago after years of not knowing , not wanting to know and thinking I knew it all. All praises to THE MOST HIGH. PRAY FOR ME Y'ALL...THANK YOU SIR........

[@christdayisnow7146]

[@jenniferjones8384]

"Goodwill." Thanks for this. I will be finding myself a placard or a picture with this word and putting it somewhere in my house where we can all see it.

[@ogbranbran8062]

Amen

[@edwardcoyle7944]

I agree 100% with you, and I would add one important ingredient needed to have a long fulfilled marriage that seems to be missing today is COMMITMENT. Sometimes that's all you can hang on to when the times get tough and they always do at some point in any marriage. When I get discouraged I remember the amazing Grace that the Lord has always shown me even when I don't deserve it. Thank GOD he doesn't cast us aside when we mess up.

[@Grace4_All]

Bro.. Somehow i came across your channel.. and what a blessing already the past hour I've gotten .. If possible could you and anyone in the comments pray for me that God provides a wife if it is His will for my Life .

[@Pedro-of4tn]

Brother,may God bless you with a wife in the Lord Jesus Christ.

[@wandasutton6060]

I Love listening to you mr pearl. You have been blessed with so many talents. I live in Tennessee and would love to just sit down and talk to you. Thank you and may God continue to bless and keep you and your family safe. Much Love♥️ In Jesus blood name! Amen

[@victoriouspauper8495]

I AM JUST OVER 50 (NEVER MARRIED, BUT CLOSE TWICE) .... AND YOUR VIDEOS HAVE A LOT OF WISDOM. YOU ARE LIKE A GRAND PA (THAT I DON'T HAVE) .... JUST SITTING ON A PORCH IN A ROCKING CHAIR TEACHING. THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS !! KEEP 'EM COMIN' .... CAUSE I AM WATCHING AND LEARNING :) GO TRUMP !!!! COME LORD JESUS !!!!

[@margaretcollins8345]

I have done my best to teach them and their friends how important it is to place God above all and your spouse follows and you lead your children. And I love seeing my boys treat their wives so gentle and their wives work hard beside them. God has blessed us all with so much.

[@antcricket]

My parents will be fifty years together this year. They finally get along

[@cindybydesign]

sometimes it takes a while

[@timkirkpatrick1749]

Yes, the longer I am with my wife the easier things get. July 30 my wife and I will be married 45 years. I’m surprised with all the things that I’ve done that she’s kept me around, lol. But the truth be told I’m the one that runs everything around the house. I run the dishwasher I run the vacuum I run the microwave. I run all the important things around the house because she lets me, OK tells me too. If she hast to leave town for any reason and I can’t go with her, I feel the sorrow in my heart and I have a deep desire to be with her. And with her it’s the same God has blessed me with a wonderful life and a wonderful wife he’s taking care of us and guide us. I couldn’t ask for more. Awesome video, thank you very much.

[@A127-i3x]

Pray for my future wife to come In God's will and time💗💗

[@homesteadparadise]

I am very blessed to have a wonderful marriage of 37 years.. Happy Anniversary to you and your wife..!!

[@patzee61]

I loved your words in this episode because every word you expressed was a reflection of exactly what my husband would say. For this i am so deeply grateful. Yesterday we marked the 37 year we have been enjoying the blessing of a happy partnership. Marriage is a heavenly creation, and when we do it right, God’s way, we are truly blessed.

[@williemcdowell6319]

I just discovered your Channel this week and it is very strange how the first couple of videos I have seen are some of the same subjects I have been asking God about thank you for helping me through my tough times and God bless you

[@thedoormichaelpearl]

Thank you for your comment! We enjoy hearing from our audience.

[@amandaamor1633]

Thanks so much for the wisdom 😊 I’m a single Christian and I’ve been praying for a Godly husband 😊

[@St.Raphael...]

Your wisdom is an answer to a prayer. Thank you

[@glendabadger8865]

Invaluable marital advice from a Biblical perspective. Thank you for your teachings and God bless you and your family!!!

[@normabarros3124]

You are such a blessed man just seeing you and your wife and hearing you talk about charity vs love is so beautiful I had no idea.....only God knew how much I appreciate hearing this in Jesus

[@ogbranbran8062]

Amen

[@TyroniuzOz]

I hope you have a young men's group that you work with. There is no youth or young men's groups around our area that speak like you. I would have taken my son's to someone like yourself, it is so rare nowadays. God bless you and yours brother. ✝️👍

[@johnshawngrubb4675]

Thank you for this raw, personal sharing of you and Debi’s marriage. ❤️ Hallelujah we celebrate 34 years+!❤️

[@michelferreira9695]

I'm very lucky to hear God's wisdom through your ministry, but at same time I'm very sad that I only this wisdom after I lost my marriage. I can't go back in time, but I can carry the lesson with me.

[@joek511]

God created Eve. Adam took one look and said,,,, Woe,,, man! After 32 years with my wife, I am a widower. I understand what God meant when He said , it is not good that man should be alone. Not sure what the future holds for me in that area, but I am thankful to know my wife is no longer suffering

[@conniesadowinski6846]

Congratulations to you and your wife. Thanks for sharing this wisdom with us all. My husband and I have been married for 33 years.

[@cynthiarogers3178]

Thanks for speaking on the molestation topic. I'm a survivor & do so apreaciate it kind Man.

[@donnakarenedwards2199]

Great teaching, I have been listening to you for about a month now. I wish that I had found this Chanel sooner. I have been a saved Christian for 51 years now. Your teaching has opened me eyes yo the the scriptures and understanding alot. I just wanted yo thank you. God bless you

[@annajorgensen1627]

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!! The love you feel for your wife shows in your face. You even had a twinkle in your eyes. I'm so happy for you both. God bless you and your family. Big hugs to you all.🕊️♥️💞💘 BTW that fig was a very nice one and by both of your faces it was delicious.😃

What a great and timely message Micheal. Today in Australia September 26 the morning of which I sat down to watch this soon as it come out. Is my twenty seventh wedding anniversary. God bless

[@redxpro1]

Such a pleasure seeing him and his wife together. Truly down to earth REAL people in a fake world!

[@trishawhitehouse4226]

Thank -you so much for mentioning that there are some times when you have to call law enforcement. It is never easy, but it is for the best for the children, and prevents more sin. It is probably the hardest thing a wife/ mother ever does. It gives a chance for true repentance. You can forgive someone and also call the police and stop them from furthering their sin. I am so glad you mentioned these things, because they are more common then people like to think about. Protecting children is a vital part of our serving God.

[@kevintafur7111]

There can never be a perfect marriage relationship, but there can be a successful marriage relationship, and you brother Mike are showing the world that is posible by the grace of God. I have never been married, but if I get to enjoy that blessing in this life I pray I can follow your example to the glory of God the Father!

[@graniteguy8410]

It's crazy that today is your birthday and I happen to stumble across this video of yours. I needed this. Happy Birthday and God bless you brother.

[@noroom4gloom388]

Sincere trust I have heard it said that a marriage should be 50/50 My wife of 44 years and I have always thought it to be 100/100 Ups and downs we all have those but to sincerely love your mate is the best experience I can imagine here on this earth other than getting saved.

[@ninerocks]

Great words of wisdom, thank you Mike (or as I jokingly refer to you "Tennessee Moses"). We just passed 25 years married, and I think I'm only just starting to "get it" :)

I've never had a fig. You make it look really good ☺️

[@kundetjenesten]

I never married, but still very much enjoyed this video, it has alot of wisdom in it. The part about that elderly couple made me think of my grandparents on my mothers side, they too passed away with just a day in between. I loved them to bits and I am sad to say I may never see them again.

[@provocationofgrace]

Thanks for your thoughts and the references to Scripture. I was very bitter and legalistic in my marriage for almost the first 10 years, and a backsliding year not too long back. My mentor said much of what you said here. Thanks for the confirmation!

[@CharmandersCrispyTators]

I needed this so badly. Thank you for the video. Regardless of any situation or confrontation, my response is on me. Seeing your own sin as this biggest problem in marriage is difficult.

[@mrs.jaywojo5426]

I didn't know you were on Fake News CNN... That must have been a terrible experience. Thank you for posting such a lengthy reflection on marriage. It's much appreciated.

[@maggiestroud4558]

Could use some prayers for my marriage. It’s a long story but basically I believe in staying married but I am not in love (romantically) with my husband. I love my husband but I just don’t feel like in love with him. A lot of trust issues and he is deaf and I am not deaf and communication is a big deal!!!!!!!!!!!!! Been married 20 years thank you and I enjoy listening to your posts!

[@ambersmith6517]

You speak so much truth Me and my wife have been together for over 20 years I think god took her out of me Is that possible we where predestined to be together God worked had for both of us We both have done it all "all bad" but never never stopped loving each other When you have a Godly woman it brings peace into a home God has done so many mericals in our lives I needed her before I knew her she needed me before she knew me The more we open up to each other about childhood The more we discover we was there for each other We have ran into and done acts of kindness and didn't even realize it was us several times in our childhood until opening up and finishing each others storys Praise god he is worthy of all praise So many mericals It would make a best seller and all true storys

Amen amen thank you so much for being these scripture to the public. Most preachers of all aspects of religion teach all women are submissive to men because the men are superior because God says so but you show the true meaning that God meant for women to be truly helpmates to man not stepstools.

[@timkirkpatrick1749]

When my wife and I got married on my father, pull this aside and told us a story that if we take a rope and throw it over the house and we each get on one end of that rope, and we start pulling to try to pull the rope over the house and will battle in pool and tug, but will never get anywhere and then it will stop and both get on the same side of the house. It’s so easy to pull that rope over the house and that’s how a marriage works.
