That’s true beloved, but don’t say just one verse to justified your flesh to make you feel good. What did Apostle Paul said after that? Wives, see that you respect your husbands by being submissive just as Sarah did towards Abraham which pleased the Lord our God. Romans 3:4 KJV.

”Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies. The heart of her husband safely trusts her; So he will have no lack of gain. She does him good and not evil All the days of her life.“ Proverbs 31:10-12
”Who can find a virtuous wife?". This is the question western men are asking daily as college has become satanic debauchery indoctrination centers where women voluntarily engage in behavior that removes them from the wife material category forever.
We take these verse way out of context. I see that because we know all our sinners or rather we're not perfect and we stumble in many ways and so if marriage is a picture of the gospel then that means when our wives fail us we forgive them we take them back and we never leave them or forsake them and we cover that's truly how you love the church like Christ and give her life for her for your wife

@@GD-tn3ez I’m all for modesty, but once she got your attention, can you not avert your eyes rather than feasting your eyes on a woman who clearly wants the attention? Avert and redirect your attention to something God-honoring. That’s all the Lord expects from you. Let her be accountable to the Lord for her sins, and you for yours.
Talk about timing of recieving this message. My wife of 20 years separated from me leaving our home and our child in July, and I am standing for her return.
This is why as a divorced middle-aged bachelor, I have serious doubts if I ever wanna get married again. Relationships are very stressful and I don't deal with stress very well. I used to be afraid of being alone and I made some bad relationship choices because of that insecurity. Now, I am still afraid of being alone at times but it's much nicer coming home to a quiet home than one where you have to walk on egg shells, afraid to fail or live up to expectations and be constantly reminded of your imperfections.
You have a LOT of good personal insights about yourself, and your openness about the negative things offers you a good chance to over come them! getting honest with ourselves is often half the battle or more! Bless ya brother!
Hard one to swallow as my wife and are at odds (wits ends)... I'm doing my best to follow what the LORD says, commands and encourages... Really hard to speak with edification as I've lived a life with a split tongue until my transformation... That's when God sent the Holy Spirit to assure my tongue of a dragon was tamed... However, I'm of the flesh, I make mistakes & I slip my lip and sink the ship... I take full responsibility for my part... It's hard to never be forgiven... It's hard to let go of my past as it's always put into my face...😢 I would covet any and all prayers for my marriage and especially for my wife... Thank You for opening up my eyes many times to see my wrongs so I can take them to the cross... Thank You & Gods Blessings
I'm a single Christian but I prayed for you & your wife that God will help strengthen your marriage so satan doesn't prevail, that it will be nourished by Scripture & covered in prayer by several, close believers you trust, that you both will enjoy one another & encourage one another, and that your marriage will glorify God. Amen 🙏 😊
I spent 27 years with a woman who would not forgive, would not take responsibility, would not apologize. She pretended to be a Christian, but I never recognized she wasn't doing the basics. All the unbalanced church teaching about men taking the lead only kept me trapped in this abusive relationship until I was destroyed. I pray your marriage isn't like this, and I hope you find wise counsel that will help you to see clearly. Deliver us from evil, O Lord Jesus.
If anyone brings up past sins that's the definition of unforgiveness, nevertheless I've prayed for your wife and your reconciliation. Whatever you do, speak or think do all for the Glory of God! 💖
I get married March 2011 to woman who doesn't want kissing, hugging, or sex. She left October 2012. She finds out I am a Christian in 2016 then she filled for separation 2017. I did not find out until I visit her 2019, she was cold as ice with me. She tells me not to witness to people infront of her. So I told her to go sit in the car when I do the Lord's work. Annulment time, filed September 2023...still waiting for God's will. God is good! ✝️♥️🛐 Praying for Todd Friel and Al Yerks.

You forgot one… don’t marry an unbeliever/ don’t be unequally yoked. Being married to an unbeliever is hard. Being married to an unbeliever who believes that they are an actual believer is even harder.
Can confirm. My wife is convinced she's a Christian but blasphemes Jesus' name, never attends church, denies John 14:6.... It's very difficult to overcome these things.
@@happsider my wife blasphemes Jesus’s name a lot and I told her how I felt about it and all she said was “don’t go preaching to me” and then she admitted that she does it because she knows it angers me. She says she’s ok with me reading my Bible but gets mad when I do it in front of her ( or at least that’s it seems like). We try to have a Bible study together but she’s get mad every time I tried to explain a verse to her or go into depth with the Bible. And she like to say “since you’re so holy holy” in a derogatory manner. It’s hard and breaks my heart. And a long time ago she told me that she doesn’t care if she goes to hell because that’s where she belongs. And when I tried to preach the gospel to her she didn’t want to hear it and said she wasn’t it the mood to talk about religion. I want nothing more than to share my love for Gods word with her but she makes it hard to do so.
@@Jude1ministries Wow, it sounds like you have it worse than I do. My wife is supportive of my church and ministry work, but just wants nothing to do with Jesus. It seems your wife tries to intentionally belittle your faith. I am sorry, that must be very stressful. There is certainly comfort knowing God is aware and is working in her heart, even if it's slowly or not in the way we want. You are in my prayers!
@@happsider thank you. I definitely need them!! And I’m glad you’re wife is supportive of your ministry and service. That makes things a lot easier. I teach Sunday school and that was a fight at first to do but she’s over it now because she knows I’m going to do that regardless of what she says. I pray one day though that I can actually go into ministry and become a pastor, but she’s told me before that I could never be a pastor and that she can’t be a pastors wife. I’ve also been told that I’m not yet qualified for it due to my wife’s spiritual condition but if I still wished to do so it will put a bigger strain on my marriage because it her condition. So I just stay the course, I pray for her and our marriage and the strength to continue on this path. I know God has a plan and I have faith that he will complete his plan in due time.
@@Jude1ministries she probably does not want you to become a pastor since she knows you will receive a lot of attention from Christian women. She must guard her property at all costs. In the mean time just keep praying and study hard.
Hey all! I unfortunately am a living example of just about all of these issues. Almost everything Todd mentioned is why my marriage failed and is unfortunately beyond repair. If you don't surrender to the Lord Jesus Christ and seek marriage on a worldly standard, even though you may be seeking marriage with Jesus in mind or saying He's at the forefront, it WILL fail. You would do well to pay attention very closely to this video and remember it before you even think of getting married. Take it from me, I lived it, and messed up hard enough.
A few years ago, my sister met someone after having been involved in some bad relationships/having her heart broken and also being single for a long time. There were some things about this person that were concerning to myself and my family but we were happy she had met someone. They ended up getting married but those concerns just continued to come up and in some ways grew even bigger. They have been married for a while now and this person's behavior has not changed. Please pray concerning their relationship, for the other person and for my sister. Thank you.
Both of my parents' respective families have abnormal levels of control over them even though they have been married for years. This has always been a problem even before I was born and has caused so much discord in their marriage and our family. Both of their families have gone out of their way to proudly cause problems in their marriage and now I'm seeing that behavior firsthand myself due to some conflicts that have happened in the past few years where their family members have tried to break up our family. Please pray for them, their marriage and our family.
I love your skits at the end of this!! I'm not married, but could see how hard it is to be married. I have no urgency to get married. Maybe God meant for me to be single my whole life.
You are very wise! Its smart to have good models to build upon. It takes longer, but you are far less likely to have to start over again! measure twice, cut once!
I'll give you a tip for finding the right life partner; learn about red flags and don't be afraid to go your separate ways. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't be patient, loving etc. Just learn that somebody who exhibits unacceptable behavior is only going to get worse when they know you're "locked in."
This was really good. A lot of insightful information that I'm definitely going to take heed and listen to. Thank you Lord for delivering those message
My wife’s grandma gave us advice when we got married that has helped us tremendously. She said if we ever disagree about a decision regarding anything at all, my wife gets one “but sir” and then it’s “yes sir”. When we bought our first house, I wanted a different one. My wife gave her one rebuttal (but sir) and it changed my mind. When I decided to move my wife and children to California she gave her one rebuttal (but sir), it didn’t change my mind and I said we were moving, and she said okay (yes sir).
My wife and I had so these vary problems. I was find my self looking out side my marriage at women walking around and being very disrespectful. We prayed together and sought counseling. From our pastor. But we are growing strong 💪 together in the LORD. Your wife should have now boundaries with you and same with her for you. Your phone is hers her phone is yours. The marriage in to one flesh is true. Be wise slow to become angry. Submit to your wife.
heres my list.......1. quit trying to change the other person.....2.put the spouses needs and desires first place on your list.......3. dont covet what you will never have........4. never expect your spouse to be like other peoples wives........5. allow the spouse to mess up and not to be perfect.........
@@theeternalsbeliever1779 in a perfect world yes...but we r in a sinful world and now even christians have the same rate of divorce at 50%......thats cause self in usually on the throne......for even unsaved marriages last a long time and thats cause each other seeks to put the other person as their primary concern...
Not true@@theeternalsbeliever1779 . Sometimes a spouse will suffer in their marriage even though they are relatively innocent and place Jesus first. We are expected to suffer in this life and that can include marital issues.
Both partners must RESOLVE to make it work, but the Love of Jesus, is the key that unlocks the door to a successful and happy marriage and life. 51 years and counting.😀
The Holy spirits help Maybe a prayer like this? Dear Lord, I know that it is your commandment that i love my wife like you loved us(the church) Inspite of how much of a sinner I am , you loved me and died for me and yet I fail to love my wife like I should. I know it is your desire that we stay together as husband and wife and not only stay together but enjoy it. It is really tough, help me to get closer to you and your word so that I will get closer to my wife. I know you can bring us back to how you want us to be . I am praying this in your name . Amen Avoid any temptation that will take your thoughts away from your wife . Maybe encourage her to get into a diet for her overall health . God be with you . once again I am very sure of you ask God for his help he will give it to you
@@rebat7564DEFINITELY pray for her to lose weight! Being a fatty will cost her years of her life, and is often a sign of depression and other mental issues, and the fat is like emotional insulation. She aint doing so good. try not to be a jerk about it, like i am, but she hurting, although im sure you figured this out by now.
Its NOT this simple, though! Women hear the Bible in "Italien', men hear it in 'German' (or choose your 2 favorite unrelated languages). While i agree with you, she is interpreting things from her FEELINGS more than her intellect. UNDERSTANDING this is key! They ONLY scriptures she cares about are: Men do,say, feel for your wives!. She doesnt care about the reciprocal ones! Thats a man's problems, not a woman's problem in her mind!
@@inconnu4961 reading the Bible to each other is simple. It takes dedication and discipline to read a few chapters daily with each other. Pray the scriptures over your life, discuss what you’ve read and ask the Holy Spirit for deeper understanding of the Word and ask Him to help you live a holy and righteous life. That part is hard because our flesh doesn’t want to submit.
True I got blown up at war and didn't know it the symptoms became to much for her she cheated and left took me years to find out what was happening to me it does take 2 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but not always the way u think huh
@@nickolaygonchar9060 I'm sorry I'm confused? I didn't do anything but get hurt or sick from war however u want to see it and Biblically that isn't a reason for her or me to leave??????
Praying for those who desire to find a godly husband or wife in this madness we call society. Also praying for those who have decided to remain single, and that both demographics honor the Lord whether it be in their marriage or singleness.
Let me ask, my wife before and after we got married, cheated on me, we were not living a Christian life, but I turned my life to the lord and have been for the last 3 years, even still she cheated on me, so after that we've been separated and will most likely divorce, am I doing anything wrong?
#2 before I was even a Christian I used to liken marriage and sex to a brick house. Sex is the mortar and the bricks are your feelings and bond to your spouse sex without that bond is just mortar on the ground and doesn't make a house and only having bricks but no mortar the first storm the bricks will fall and the house will collapse.
As a divorced man, I would urge my brothers to take heed to the Apostle Paul's teachings. If you are unmarried, don't seek a wife. Remain as you are. To marry in the USA is a terrifying thing for a man.
Amen, if we can't be ourselves for someone else then it's not right, and we can be who we are in Christ and letting him transform us, only then can we love others. We can't rely on the worldly/man made way to love. It's perverted out there it's depressing.
Also as a divorced man, i concur! Until things change legally & socially, its basically bondage for men! If you are LUCKY, it can be good! But most men are NOT lucky!
I do not envy anyone seeking to marry in this day and age. Though I think anyone with any amount of discernment could see it coming, I cannot believe how *quickly* things have spiraled out of control.
Another aspect often unmentioned about pornography use is that these men often have frigid wives that don't put out. I really think women should appologize for making their husbands resort to porn.
Not necessarily! Does the army throw soldiers into battle to teach them to fight? To airline pilots get REAL planes their first time? Lets hope not! You can always train your brain to do the right thing, and feel the right feelings before it happens and your brain cant tell the difference! GOD bless!
Walk in the flesh is to walk in your own human behaviors that align with the world. To practice their ways according to your original sin nature. Too overcome this, you must practice (fist from within) the fruit of the Spirit. Practice in Greek is to construct. Like in construction there is a blueprint established and one works backwards starting from the blueprint.
Physical sex is an outward picture of something internally. To the couple in covenant with one another in Love (that is to the could who practices loving each other, being full of service to one another) 1 Corinthians 13:4 and 1 Corinthians 7 then their sex is much more enjoyed with one another because of their inward intimacy they have built with one another. It is like a person tending to a garden. If he doesn't constant work evetually the garden will die. The same with the soul of the individual. The covenant will be dead/lifeless. Have no meaning whatsoever!
Part B to the pornography/lust of the eyes thing needs to be said, though it always makes women uncomfortable in this brainwashed feminist-led culture: Women, you are responsible for your intentions when you dress for the day. To honor your body with respect, avoid (to the best of your ability, bc there are some situations we cannot/could not have prevented regardless) risking your safety in this fallen world, and for your brother’s sake to not lead him into temptation. Let the man be held accountable for his sins against you, and you be held accountable for your sins against the man. Both sides share blame in the way they have devalued women. It’s long past time to hold ourselves accountable. Another thought on the subject of lowering loft expectations: Marriage is a magnifier to our sins, not an alleviator of them. Only God can help you work out the sanctification against your sinful nature.
I think some people weren't meant for marriage on this earth, me included. I get mad thinking about it. Look to Jesus. Let Him guide you. Just because you got the plumbing and the drive doesn't necessarily mean it's God's will for you to disperse "rivers of waters in the streets" (Prov. 5:16).
@@EdTheWretch Sometimes having the fires of lust turned up is God testing a person to see if they'll hold to His hand. Often tho, burning with lust is only a symptom of deeper problem - a warped concept, estranged from reality. I've seen this over and over, even with immediate family. I used to have such a messed up viewpoint myself.
@@sterling5489 Did you know that the term "burning with lust" is particularly talking about premarital sex desire for people who should be married because God making them wired them this way. PS: I agree that by Spirit which is indwelling born again Christian we have the power to overcome any testing God allows for us because He won't give us more than we can cope with
I really just struggle to love my wife and everything she does annoys me. I don't know what to do. I married her as striving to be a Godly man and she has just ripped my relationship with my family apart and also hurt me in so many ways I don't know what to do. I am depressed every single day. I go to war with myself to wake up each day and I have no one to speak to. We have two little children and I do my best to be there for them, and so does she, but we don't sleep in the same bed together and I think we're both just repulsed by one another by now. I don't want to say I don't love her, but I don't know how else I'm feeling. I loathe being at home with her and I find it better when I'm spending time with the kids on my own and her doing the same. I honestly can't stand being around her anymore and I feel trapped, because I'll never consider divorce. I feel too weak to pray like I used to and too depressed to be happy. I think this is my bane... I used to be on fire for God before I met this woman, and I was doing a lot of missionary work and discipled teenagers when I was a young adult. I had such zeal and hope and now... Now I just feel empty and a longing for what once was... 😞
Why are you still with her if she’s “hurt you in so many ways”? You can’t hide that from your kids by staying with her and that’s even worse staying in a loveless marriage.
@@unvaccinatedmgtowfitness Because I made a vow to her and more importantly, to God... And we love our kids and we're a family unit. Separating would be devastating for them and for us I think. Things have been a bit better lately, I hold onto the Lord, my only hope.
Pastor dont get it. No sex is a symptom to a bigger problem. Stop saying people to have sex. Nobody will have sex with an abusive person. Bed never comes first.
Why do preachers today not teach the scripture. The problem today is divorce and remarriage. God says that's adultery. And no adulterer will get to heaven. Read the book !!
I sent this video to my wife, and instead of watching it, she started a fight over the thumbnail. I think, since we have eight or nine of the problems you've listed, the Devil has already won. There is no point in this marriage.
Good word for this day and age. Rules for me and mine wife. 1. Be honest. 2. No secrets. 3. Make time for one another. Read and pray together. 4. If I see something and it’s not for me to see I tell her I show her. Same for her TikTok Facebook any way you can seek and destroy. But if you instill Christ satan will flee.
I can’t help but be confused. Y’all say I’m bad for having sex, but half of y’all complain that there’s no sex in your marriage. Why would I want to be in your shoes?!? I like sex, I have all the sex I want, and I’m not a Christian. Y’all think I’m being sinful, but y’all covet my sin. Make up your minds!! And you blame me for being confused??
They're not coveting your sin, they're trying to fix their own marriages and escape sin. Sin is the reason marriages are failing. Don't use others' problems to justify your own sin - it won't fool God.
@@ic7481 I don’t seek to justify anything. I’m just pointing out that I live a perfectly healthy, happy, and reasonable life; I’m not distressed by anyone else’s hypocrisy, I just can’t help but notice it. I don’t understand how anyone could wake up and find themselves married to a person they’re not at least 85% compatible with in the bedroom. People evolve, and I’m still developing, I already know that I won’t be the same person at 26 compared to myself at 16. We learn things, we try things, we discover things. We do the same in the bedroom, too. I’m not aware of any reason your god is meant to be of concern to me. In India today (Jan 22/24), they’re celebrating the birth of some Hindu god. Millions of people ‘believe’ in that god. You and I do not. But what if both of us are wrong? How am I supposed to know which god is the OG? There’s nothing to be said of ‘sin’, except that my existence doesn’t recognise ‘sin’.
What do you do with a husband that won’t repent from porn and it’s been over 35 years? He is extremely abusive emotionally to me . I keep praying but he is getting worse . I fear the lord and I always make myself available to him in the bedroom but I cry afterwards privately in the bathroom, I always feel raped. He flirts with women both online and in person. He says that I have to stay and endure the abuse, that’s what Christ wants and that he hasn’t had a physical affair so I have to stay.
Two things. Find a church community if you aren't already part of one. Then seek an elder/pastor for mediation and marriage counseling. If your husband refuses mediation with a church leader then it could actually be sinful for you to stay in this marriage.
Thank you for the reply , I appreciate it .. He unfortunately won’t do church counseling , he doesn’t think that he has a problem . It’s time to leave under counsel . I pray that he comes to Christ and is saved and that will always be my prayer for him .
: : your husband conveniently forgot about the bible verse jesus said,about not looking at women with lust right? If be will not repent, it will best for you to move on
I would be cautious about #2. Some people may marry then later they are unable to have sex because of a health problem or have issues. Love means you don't just marry for sex or sexual experiences. It's long-suffering. So you gotta be cautious about #2. Also a lot of women don't want to have sex because men don't listen, communicate, or know what to even do (because they didn't ask) so it's unpleasant for the woman. So just keep that in mind. I think there is a tendency among men to blame women for their sexual frustration...they need to look in the mirror. Women do want sex, I think just as much as men.
In my case it was my husband who never wanted sex. Now I have health issues from that, believe it or not. If you don’t use it, the woman gets atrophied in menopause. Now I can’t. I blame him and I resent him. So the rift is now even wider. He’s become a good man after many years of neglect and emotional abuse, but I stay for the children and for the Lord.
And maybe men don't want to listen and communicate because there is no sexual connection. And some women use sex as a weapon to get their husband to submit to them and invert God's order.
Sure, but if a spouse chooses not to engage in sexual intimacy with their spouse, then they too better be completely celibate and not be engaging in the sexual pleasure on their own, or in any other shape or form. It's one thing to be sexually impaired or physically disabled, but it's a completely different issue if you're simply just not engaging in those activities with your spouse.
*MYSTERY of 'God' = Revelation 5:5 (sealed scroll) is THE 'Davidic COVENANT'* *Yet Christians FEAR To OPEN (Isaiah 22:22) And SEE Isaiah 34: 4 5 6* *So WHO is Ready to LEARN What this Scroll is REALLY all ABOUT? (Rev.20:12)* *Revelation 22:18 & 19 were The INSTRUCTIONS (Ezekiel 21:9 10 11, 25 26 27)*
A lot of women don't want sex because their s/o doesn't know what to do or is cruel. Also ok physical issues do exist for women. Men don't realize it or just ignore and expect someone to enjoy it nonstop without any effort.
@@rachelm9350 The devil is lurking and you are called to be one body with your man. You don't like something speak up, communicate. Your body is not yours any longer.
@@rachelm9350Most women are not virgins these days, if they're having trouble feeling good with their husband its typically because she made some bad decisions before meeting him; or she stepped out on him and had a different experience and has compromised her bond with her husband. I would give you an olive branch and bring up the fact that there are still some virgin women out here, who won't have issues with their husband because he is the only one she's been with and she never seen porn (also really rare of someone this days), but the fact is the overwhelming majority of women today are not pure like that.
If you go to her before going to God for that sort of quality time, then yes. It's not her job to fix you, but it is your job to lead her to God. Do not put on her what only God can do, because she will always let you down.
I LOVE the points listed here. Great! On the other hand: I DON'T feel that a way-too-noisy, brusque presentation is the best way to present these points. What's that expression: "WWJD"? Would Jesus have presented the Gospel THIS way? It's possible to be DIRECT...without so much 'in-your-face'. Speaking about marital relationships: do you speak THIS way to your wife? (I sure hope not....)
I…don’t think Todd is trying to do that. That’s just simply the way he presents. Just watch his other videos (if you haven’t, yet) and you’ll see what I mean.
@@jtika1978 yes I have. Pretty much the same style. Granted, he’s made a few changes in his presentations, but aside from that, his style remains the same. It’s not like he’s trying to be legalistic, but one just simply has to understand the context and manner in which he is coming from.
Ecclesiastes 7:28 28 while I was still searching but not finding- I found one upright man among a thousand, but not one upright woman among them all. There’s no such thing as a “good woman” lol. You aren’t going to find your proverbs 13 wife. If a woman is past the age of 15 she will have a body count. It’s so over.
Marriage is for the children of this world . The god of this world is Satan . So you take it from here. Luke 20:34-38 King James Version And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection. Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.
Narcissism is a term that mankind created, representing a thought system about human behavior that mankind decided was true, that presents criteria and solutions that mankind presents. The Bible argues that God is *PERFECT* wisdom, power AND solution. It doesn't accept narcissism as a legitimate cause or condition.
Don't listen to this narcissist it's plain and simple divorce is caused from the hardness of the heart Jesus words not mine lion and simple truth you don't need all this garbage

I have such a wife. I didn't find her. The Lord Jesus Christ brought her to me. I'm blessed beyond measure. Glory to the Lord Most High.
It is written again, a faithful man who can find?
We take these verse way out of context. I see that because we know all our sinners or rather we're not perfect and we stumble in many ways and so if marriage is a picture of the gospel then that means when our wives fail us we forgive them we take them back and we never leave them or forsake them and we cover that's truly how you love the church like Christ and give her life for her for your wife
@@choch4075that passage backs up what the above comment is stating, that marriage is two way.
What a timely message…..me and my wife don’t have “problems” but we do have issues that need to be resolved. Thank you

Talk about timing of recieving this message. My wife of 20 years separated from me leaving our home and our child in July, and I am standing for her return.
I'm sorry my brother...
Will pray right now.
My condolences as well, Keep in earnest prayer, but have a plan B, just in case!
This is why as a divorced middle-aged bachelor, I have serious doubts if I ever wanna get married again. Relationships are very stressful and I don't deal with stress very well. I used to be afraid of being alone and I made some bad relationship choices because of that insecurity. Now, I am still afraid of being alone at times but it's much nicer coming home to a quiet home than one where you have to walk on egg shells, afraid to fail or live up to expectations and be constantly reminded of your imperfections.
You have a LOT of good personal insights about yourself, and your openness about the negative things offers you a good chance to over come them! getting honest with ourselves is often half the battle or more! Bless ya brother!
Hard one to swallow as my wife and are at odds (wits ends)... I'm doing my best to follow what the LORD says, commands and encourages... Really hard to speak with edification as I've lived a life with a split tongue until my transformation... That's when God sent the Holy Spirit to assure my tongue of a dragon was tamed... However, I'm of the flesh, I make mistakes & I slip my lip and sink the ship... I take full responsibility for my part... It's hard to never be forgiven... It's hard to let go of my past as it's always put into my face...😢
I would covet any and all prayers for my marriage and especially for my wife...
Thank You for opening up my eyes many times to see my wrongs so I can take them to the cross...
Thank You

I'm a single Christian but I prayed for you & your wife that God will help strengthen your marriage so satan doesn't prevail, that it will be nourished by Scripture & covered in prayer by several, close believers you trust, that you both will enjoy one another & encourage one another, and that your marriage will glorify God. Amen 🙏 😊
I spent 27 years with a woman who would not forgive, would not take responsibility, would not apologize. She pretended to be a Christian, but I never recognized she wasn't doing the basics. All the unbalanced church teaching about men taking the lead only kept me trapped in this abusive relationship until I was destroyed. I pray your marriage isn't like this, and I hope you find wise counsel that will help you to see clearly. Deliver us from evil, O Lord Jesus.
Jimmy Evans has an excellent, Biblically based marriage ministry with many sermons available on YT. Good stuff 🙂
If anyone brings up past sins that's the definition of unforgiveness, nevertheless I've prayed for your wife and your reconciliation.
Whatever you do, speak or think do all for the Glory of God! 💖

”Whoever commits adultery with a woman lacks understanding; He who does so destroys his own soul.“
Proverbs 6:32
In modern times, more women cheat than men. I assume the passage relates to women as well.
@@Syrin23 Absolutely applicable to both.
that makes zero sense, the ratio would be exactly equal. 2 ppl cheat when a husband or wife is cheated on. @@Syrin23
Women never cheat. They are simply following their heart to reward fine love.

I get married March 2011 to woman who doesn't want kissing, hugging, or sex. She left October 2012. She finds out I am a Christian in 2016 then she filled for separation 2017. I did not find out until I visit her 2019, she was cold as ice with me. She tells me not to witness to people infront of her. So I told her to go sit in the car when I do the Lord's work. Annulment time, filed September 2023...still waiting for God's will.

1. Responding in the flesh

9. Work-idolatry
10. Lying
Three should really be either or both spouses consumed by porn, because it's just as destructive to women as it is to men.

You forgot one… don’t marry an unbeliever/ don’t be unequally yoked. Being married to an unbeliever is hard. Being married to an unbeliever who believes that they are an actual believer is even harder.
Can confirm. My wife is convinced she's a Christian but blasphemes Jesus' name, never attends church, denies John 14:6.... It's very difficult to overcome these things.
@@happsider my wife blasphemes Jesus’s name a lot and I told her how I felt about it and all she said was “don’t go preaching to me” and then she admitted that she does it because she knows it angers me. She says she’s ok with me reading my Bible but gets mad when I do it in front of her ( or at least that’s it seems like). We try to have a Bible study together but she’s get mad every time I tried to explain a verse to her or go into depth with the Bible. And she like to say “since you’re so holy holy” in a derogatory manner. It’s hard and breaks my heart. And a long time ago she told me that she doesn’t care if she goes to hell because that’s where she belongs. And when I tried to preach the gospel to her she didn’t want to hear it and said she wasn’t it the mood to talk about religion. I want nothing more than to share my love for Gods word with her but she makes it hard to do so.
@@Jude1ministries Wow, it sounds like you have it worse than I do. My wife is supportive of my church and ministry work, but just wants nothing to do with Jesus. It seems your wife tries to intentionally belittle your faith. I am sorry, that must be very stressful. There is certainly comfort knowing God is aware and is working in her heart, even if it's slowly or not in the way we want. You are in my prayers!
@@happsider thank you. I definitely need them!! And I’m glad you’re wife is supportive of your ministry and service. That makes things a lot easier. I teach Sunday school and that was a fight at first to do but she’s over it now because she knows I’m going to do that regardless of what she says. I pray one day though that I can actually go into ministry and become a pastor, but she’s told me before that I could never be a pastor and that she can’t be a pastors wife. I’ve also been told that I’m not yet qualified for it due to my wife’s spiritual condition but if I still wished to do so it will put a bigger strain on my marriage because it her condition. So I just stay the course, I pray for her and our marriage and the strength to continue on this path. I know God has a plan and I have faith that he will complete his plan in due time.
@@Jude1ministries she probably does not want you to become a pastor since she knows you will receive a lot of attention from Christian women. She must guard her property at all costs. In the mean time just keep praying and study hard.

And ESPECIALLY when we dont want them! LOL
Hey all! I unfortunately am a living example of just about all of these issues. Almost everything Todd mentioned is why my marriage failed and is unfortunately beyond repair. If you don't surrender to the Lord Jesus Christ and seek marriage on a worldly standard, even though you may be seeking marriage with Jesus in mind or saying He's at the forefront, it WILL fail. You would do well to pay attention very closely to this video and remember it before you even think of getting married. Take it from me, I lived it, and messed up hard enough.
This hurts because it’s true. All of it
A few years ago, my sister met someone after having been involved in some bad relationships/having her heart broken and also being single for a long time. There were some things about this person that were concerning to myself and my family but we were happy she had met someone. They ended up getting married but those concerns just continued to come up and in some ways grew even bigger. They have been married for a while now and this person's behavior has not changed. Please pray concerning their relationship, for the other person and for my sister. Thank you.
Great Biblical straight talking.
Both of my parents' respective families have abnormal levels of control over them even though they have been married for years. This has always been a problem even before I was born and has caused so much discord in their marriage and our family. Both of their families have gone out of their way to proudly cause problems in their marriage and now I'm seeing that behavior firsthand myself due to some conflicts that have happened in the past few years where their family members have tried to break up our family. Please pray for them, their marriage and our family.
I love your skits at the end of this!! I'm not married, but could see how hard it is to be married. I have no urgency to get married. Maybe God meant for me to be single my whole life.
That is definitely not the worst thing you could chose. Marriage is wonderful in many ways but being single in the faith is by far easier.
Fantastic video. Please make more like this. People need to hear super important things like this. God bless you!

I watched this even though I have no spouse nor partner in my teens so it's certainly an informative video.
As I seek a God-Centered Marriage. 🥰
You are very wise! Its smart to have good models to build upon. It takes longer, but you are far less likely to have to start over again! measure twice, cut once!
I'll give you a tip for finding the right life partner; learn about red flags and don't be afraid to go your separate ways. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't be patient, loving etc. Just learn that somebody who exhibits unacceptable behavior is only going to get worse when they know you're "locked in."
Well this is timely
God Bless!
This was really good. A lot of insightful information that I'm definitely going to take heed and listen to. Thank you Lord for delivering those message
My wife’s grandma gave us advice when we got married that has helped us tremendously. She said if we ever disagree about a decision regarding anything at all, my wife gets one “but sir” and then it’s “yes sir”.
When we bought our first house, I wanted a different one. My wife gave her one rebuttal (but sir) and it changed my mind. When I decided to move my wife and children to California she gave her one rebuttal (but sir), it didn’t change my mind and I said we were moving, and she said okay (yes sir).
My wife and I had so these vary problems. I was find my self looking out side my marriage at women walking around and being very disrespectful. We prayed together and sought counseling. From our pastor. But we are growing strong 💪 together in the LORD.
Your wife should have now boundaries with you and same with her for you.
Your phone is hers her phone is yours. The marriage in to one flesh is true. Be wise slow to become angry. Submit to your wife.
Submit to your wife? 😂 😂😂😂
Thanks for the message.
It's really powerful.

Thank you my brother for this encouraging message its just what I needed to hear.God bless you all the way from Australia Shalom. ❤😊
heres my list.......1. quit trying to change the other person.....2.put the spouses needs and desires first place on your list.......3. dont covet what you will never have........4. never expect your spouse to be like other peoples wives........5. allow the spouse to mess up and not to be perfect.........
Put this at the TOP of your list: Jesus! 🤗🙏
And Man Up Already! Get over your identity issues. Don’t make me preach another Fathers’ Day sermon!
Christ should be at the top of the list. All marital problems stem from Christ not being first in somebody's life.
@@theeternalsbeliever1779 in a perfect world yes...but we r in a sinful world and now even christians have the same rate of divorce at 50%......thats cause self in usually on the throne......for even unsaved marriages last a long time and thats cause each other seeks to put the other person as their primary concern...
Not true@@theeternalsbeliever1779 . Sometimes a spouse will suffer in their marriage even though they are relatively innocent and place Jesus first. We are expected to suffer in this life and that can include marital issues.

Dear Lord, I know that it is your commandment that i love my wife like you loved us(the church)
Inspite of how much of a sinner I am , you loved me and died for me and yet I fail to love my wife like I should. I know it is your desire that we stay together as husband and wife and not only stay together but enjoy it. It is really tough, help me to get closer to you and your word so that I will get closer to my wife. I know you can bring us back to how you want us to be . I am praying this in your name . Amen

It’s important to pray and read the Bible together. Husbands are commanded to wash their wives with the Word
Its NOT this simple, though! Women hear the Bible in "Italien', men hear it in 'German' (or choose your 2 favorite unrelated languages). While i agree with you, she is interpreting things from her FEELINGS more than her intellect. UNDERSTANDING this is key! They ONLY scriptures she cares about are: Men do,say, feel for your wives!. She doesnt care about the reciprocal ones! Thats a man's problems, not a woman's problem in her mind!
@@inconnu4961 reading the Bible to each other is simple. It takes dedication and discipline to read a few chapters daily with each other. Pray the scriptures over your life, discuss what you’ve read and ask the Holy Spirit for deeper understanding of the Word and ask Him to help you live a holy and righteous life. That part is hard because our flesh doesn’t want to submit.

Praying for those who desire to find a godly husband or wife in this madness we call society. Also praying for those who have decided to remain single, and that both demographics honor the Lord whether it be in their marriage or singleness.
Let me ask, my wife before and after we got married, cheated on me, we were not living a Christian life, but I turned my life to the lord and have been for the last 3 years, even still she cheated on me, so after that we've been separated and will most likely divorce, am I doing anything wrong?
I need to be better in my marriage.
#2 before I was even a Christian I used to liken marriage and sex to a brick house. Sex is the mortar and the bricks are your feelings and bond to your spouse sex without that bond is just mortar on the ground and doesn't make a house and only having bricks but no mortar the first storm the bricks will fall and the house will collapse.
As a divorced man, I would urge my brothers to take heed to the Apostle Paul's teachings. If you are unmarried, don't seek a wife. Remain as you are. To marry in the USA is a terrifying thing for a man.
Amen, if we can't be ourselves for someone else then it's not right, and we can be who we are in Christ and letting him transform us, only then can we love others. We can't rely on the worldly/man made way to love. It's perverted out there it's depressing.
Also as a divorced man, i concur! Until things change legally & socially, its basically bondage for men! If you are LUCKY, it can be good! But most men are NOT lucky!
I do not envy anyone seeking to marry in this day and age. Though I think anyone with any amount of discernment could see it coming, I cannot believe how *quickly* things have spiraled out of control.
Having been a pastor for about 25 years i can say that pornography is not just a "man"/ "husband "thing. I think we all wish it was , but it's not.
Another aspect often unmentioned about pornography use is that these men often have frigid wives that don't put out. I really think women should appologize for making their husbands resort to porn.
Pay attention to number 5. I am afraid we are headed for such a terrible event.
Proverbs 21:9
Have to be married first😢
Not necessarily! Does the army throw soldiers into battle to teach them to fight? To airline pilots get REAL planes their first time? Lets hope not! You can always train your brain to do the right thing, and feel the right feelings before it happens and your brain cant tell the difference! GOD bless!
Wives can also suffer from porn addiction. It comes in the form of romance novels and movies. Most have very explicit sex scenes.
FACT
We LOVE giving women a pass on ALL their secret sins, dont we! LOL Its hard to be a leader when no one wants to follow!
We're doomed.
Walk in the flesh is to walk in your own human behaviors that align with the world. To practice their ways according to your original sin nature. Too overcome this, you must practice (fist from within) the fruit of the Spirit. Practice in Greek is to construct. Like in construction there is a blueprint established and one works backwards starting from the blueprint.
No wonder we’re going through a divorce 😢
Physical sex is an outward picture of something internally. To the couple in covenant with one another in Love (that is to the could who practices loving each other, being full of service to one another) 1 Corinthians 13:4 and 1 Corinthians 7 then their sex is much more enjoyed with one another because of their inward intimacy they have built with one another. It is like a person tending to a garden. If he doesn't constant work evetually the garden will die. The same with the soul of the individual. The covenant will be dead/lifeless. Have no meaning whatsoever!
Amen!
What if she is a single mother by choice?
Run! Run like the wind!
@@inconnu4961 great idea 💡
Part B to the pornography/lust of the eyes thing needs to be said, though it always makes women uncomfortable in this brainwashed feminist-led culture:
Women, you are responsible for your intentions when you dress for the day. To honor your body with respect, avoid (to the best of your ability, bc there are some situations we cannot/could not have prevented regardless) risking your safety in this fallen world, and for your brother’s sake to not lead him into temptation. Let the man be held accountable for his sins against you, and you be held accountable for your sins against the man. Both sides share blame in the way they have devalued women. It’s long past time to hold ourselves accountable.
Another thought on the subject of lowering loft expectations:
Marriage is a magnifier to our sins, not an alleviator of them. Only God can help you work out the sanctification against your sinful nature.
Another would be children-idolatry. It's detrimental as well.
I know it’s been addressed in a podcast. But…. So… many…..jump….cuts.
I think some people weren't meant for marriage on this earth, me included. I get mad thinking about it. Look to Jesus. Let Him guide you. Just because you got the plumbing and the drive doesn't necessarily mean it's God's will for you to disperse "rivers of waters in the streets" (Prov. 5:16).
Paul would agree
To burn with lust isn't good either unless you got used to celibacy already.
@@EdTheWretch Sometimes having the fires of lust turned up is God testing a person to see if they'll hold to His hand. Often tho, burning with lust is only a symptom of deeper problem - a warped concept, estranged from reality. I've seen this over and over, even with immediate family. I used to have such a messed up viewpoint myself.
@@sterling5489
Did you know that the term "burning with lust" is particularly talking about premarital sex desire for people who should be married because God making them wired them this way.
PS: I agree that by Spirit which is indwelling born again Christian we have the power to overcome any testing God allows for us because He won't give us more than we can cope with
Bang on man.

I really just struggle to love my wife and everything she does annoys me. I don't know what to do. I married her as striving to be a Godly man and she has just ripped my relationship with my family apart and also hurt me in so many ways I don't know what to do. I am depressed every single day. I go to war with myself to wake up each day and I have no one to speak to. We have two little children and I do my best to be there for them, and so does she, but we don't sleep in the same bed together and I think we're both just repulsed by one another by now. I don't want to say I don't love her, but I don't know how else I'm feeling. I loathe being at home with her and I find it better when I'm spending time with the kids on my own and her doing the same. I honestly can't stand being around her anymore and I feel trapped, because I'll never consider divorce. I feel too weak to pray like I used to and too depressed to be happy. I think this is my bane... I used to be on fire for God before I met this woman, and I was doing a lot of missionary work and discipled teenagers when I was a young adult. I had such zeal and hope and now... Now I just feel empty and a longing for what once was... 😞
You’re not alone. God bless🙏
Why are you still with her if she’s “hurt you in so many ways”? You can’t hide that from your kids by staying with her and that’s even worse staying in a loveless marriage.
@@unvaccinatedmgtowfitness Because I made a vow to her and more importantly, to God... And we love our kids and we're a family unit. Separating would be devastating for them and for us I think. Things have been a bit better lately, I hold onto the Lord, my only hope.
I’m not marrying a cult
Pastor dont get it. No sex is a symptom to a bigger problem. Stop saying people to have sex. Nobody will have sex with an abusive person. Bed never comes first.
Yeah. A controlling woman can use it to get her way
Why do preachers today not teach the scripture. The problem today is divorce and remarriage. God says that's adultery. And no adulterer will get to heaven. Read the book !!
I sent this video to my wife, and instead of watching it, she started a fight over the thumbnail.
I think, since we have eight or nine of the problems you've listed, the Devil has already won.
There is no point in this marriage.
Get biblical counseling asap. There’s always hope.
Good word for this day and age.
Rules for me and mine wife.
1. Be honest.
2. No secrets.
3. Make time for one another.
Read and pray together.
4. If I see something and it’s not for me to see I tell her I show her.
Same for her TikTok Facebook any way you can seek and destroy. But if you instill Christ satan will flee.
We've never had sex.
Why do you have a pyramid on the shelf sir?
I can’t help but be confused.
Y’all say I’m bad for having sex, but half of y’all complain that there’s no sex in your marriage.
Why would I want to be in your shoes?!?
I like sex, I have all the sex I want, and I’m not a Christian. Y’all think I’m being sinful, but y’all covet my sin. Make up your minds!!
And you blame me for being confused??
They're not coveting your sin, they're trying to fix their own marriages and escape sin. Sin is the reason marriages are failing. Don't use others' problems to justify your own sin - it won't fool God.
@@ic7481 I don’t seek to justify anything. I’m just pointing out that I live a perfectly healthy, happy, and reasonable life; I’m not distressed by anyone else’s hypocrisy, I just can’t help but notice it.
I don’t understand how anyone could wake up and find themselves married to a person they’re not at least 85% compatible with in the bedroom.
People evolve, and I’m still developing, I already know that I won’t be the same person at 26 compared to myself at 16. We learn things, we try things, we discover things. We do the same in the bedroom, too.
I’m not aware of any reason your god is meant to be of concern to me. In India today (Jan 22/24), they’re celebrating the birth of some Hindu god. Millions of people ‘believe’ in that god. You and I do not.
But what if both of us are wrong? How am I supposed to know which god is the OG?
There’s nothing to be said of ‘sin’, except that my existence doesn’t recognise ‘sin’.
I really wonder how many marriages would be in trouble if all married people only had one sexual partner for a lifetime.
What do you do with a husband that won’t repent from porn and it’s been over 35 years? He is extremely abusive emotionally to me . I keep praying but he is getting worse . I fear the lord and I always make myself available to him in the bedroom but I cry afterwards privately in the bathroom, I always feel raped. He flirts with women both online and in person. He says that I have to stay and endure the abuse, that’s what Christ wants and that he hasn’t had a physical affair so I have to stay.
Two things. Find a church community if you aren't already part of one. Then seek an elder/pastor for mediation and marriage counseling. If your husband refuses mediation with a church leader then it could actually be sinful for you to stay in this marriage.
Thank you for the reply , I appreciate it .. He unfortunately won’t do church counseling , he doesn’t think that he has a problem . It’s time to leave under counsel . I pray that he comes to Christ and is saved and that will always be my prayer for him .
: : your husband conveniently forgot about the bible verse jesus said,about not looking at women with lust right?
If be will not repent, it will best for you to move on
I would be cautious about #2. Some people may marry then later they are unable to have sex because of a health problem or have issues. Love means you don't just marry for sex or sexual experiences. It's long-suffering. So you gotta be cautious about #2. Also a lot of women don't want to have sex because men don't listen, communicate, or know what to even do (because they didn't ask) so it's unpleasant for the woman. So just keep that in mind. I think there is a tendency among men to blame women for their sexual frustration...they need to look in the mirror. Women do want sex, I think just as much as men.
In my case it was my husband who never wanted sex. Now I have health issues from that, believe it or not. If you don’t use it, the woman gets atrophied in menopause. Now I can’t. I blame him and I resent him. So the rift is now even wider. He’s become a good man after many years of neglect and emotional abuse, but I stay for the children and for the Lord.
And maybe men don't want to listen and communicate because there is no sexual connection. And some women use sex as a weapon to get their husband to submit to them and invert God's order.
Sure, but if a spouse chooses not to engage in sexual intimacy with their spouse, then they too better be completely celibate and not be engaging in the sexual pleasure on their own, or in any other shape or form. It's one thing to be sexually impaired or physically disabled, but it's a completely different issue if you're simply just not engaging in those activities with your spouse.
Jesus is lord //satan is a lie😊
He's a liar but he isn't a lie. He's very real.

A lot of women don't want sex because their s/o doesn't know what to do or is cruel. Also ok physical issues do exist for women. Men don't realize it or just ignore and expect someone to enjoy it nonstop without any effort.
@@rachelm9350 The devil is lurking and you are called to be one body with your man. You don't like something speak up, communicate. Your body is not yours any longer.
@@rachelm9350Most women are not virgins these days, if they're having trouble feeling good with their husband its typically because she made some bad decisions before meeting him; or she stepped out on him and had a different experience and has compromised her bond with her husband.
I would give you an olive branch and bring up the fact that there are still some virgin women out here, who won't have issues with their husband because he is the only one she's been with and she never seen porn (also really rare of someone this days), but the fact is the overwhelming majority of women today are not pure like that.
Or her husband “stepped out” on her.
Jesus is lord //satan is a lie
What does this guys voice sound insane
So just so I understand. Needing your wife to be emotion available is an idol?
If you go to her before going to God for that sort of quality time, then yes. It's not her job to fix you, but it is your job to lead her to God. Do not put on her what only God can do, because she will always let you down.
“Walk in the Spirit?” Wait a minute…this channel doesn’t even believe in the Holy Spirit… 😂
He doesn’t believe in the Holy Spirit ?
@@sofiabravo1994, this channel *absolutely* believes in the Holy Trinity.
I LOVE the points listed here. Great! On the other hand: I DON'T feel that a way-too-noisy, brusque presentation is the best way to present these points.
What's that expression: "WWJD"? Would Jesus have presented the Gospel THIS way? It's possible to be DIRECT...without so much 'in-your-face'. Speaking about marital relationships: do you speak THIS way to your wife? (I sure hope not....)
I…don’t think Todd is trying to do that. That’s just simply the way he presents. Just watch his other videos (if you haven’t, yet) and you’ll see what I mean.
Have you ever watched wretched?
@@jtika1978 yes I have. Pretty much the same style. Granted, he’s made a few changes in his presentations, but aside from that, his style remains the same. It’s not like he’s trying to be legalistic, but one just simply has to understand the context and manner in which he is coming from.
@@markdennison8831 i was asking the original commenter. You’re right though, that’s why i asked her/him. He’s never changed his tune.
Ecclesiastes 7:28
28 while I was still searching
but not finding-
I found one upright man among a thousand,
but not one upright woman among them all.
There’s no such thing as a “good woman” lol. You aren’t going to find your proverbs 13 wife.
If a woman is past the age of 15 she will have a body count. It’s so over.
Marriage advice from a used car salesman.
Number 3 should be number 2, and number 2 should be number 3, since number 3 is probably the biggest factor in number 2. Just saying
Marriage is for the children of this world . The god of this world is Satan . So you take it from here. Luke 20:34-38
King James Version
And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:
But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.
Address, if he is a narcissist !!!😮
Or she...?
Narcissism is a term that mankind created, representing a thought system about human behavior that mankind decided was true, that presents criteria and solutions that mankind presents.
The Bible argues that God is *PERFECT* wisdom, power AND solution. It doesn't accept narcissism as a legitimate cause or condition.
Don't listen to this narcissist it's plain and simple divorce is caused from the hardness of the heart Jesus words not mine lion and simple truth you don't need all this garbage
Satan. LOL
You won't be laughing long.
Hamas showed what Satan can do. He repeated 9/11.
by calvinist logic, if your marriage is destroyed its because god ordained it. so this video is pointless
That's hypercalvinism. True calvinism understands free will as well are predestination and Christian liberty VS what God ordains to come to pass
Then why did you watch and and even take time to comment? By all means, live your life your way. See what the eternal consequences are. Good luck with the final negotiations.
@@Syrin23 Because according to calvinism, god ordained me to watch it and comment on it and also ordained you to respond to my comment.
@@syciuplyte8494 Good for you and all five Calvinists in the world. The rest of us will not live on the fringes as if it represents the majority.
@@syciuplyte8494Would you be so kind as to tell me which part of TULIP specifically pertains to marriages and even watching RUclips videos and commenting on them? Thank you.
What a load of bs.
