Well walmart won't hire me and I can't get a job! It seems as though Nobody wants me. However if your a Rich n Powerful person, perhaps YOU could HELP ME OUT Wuth a Job??? Thank you and God bless
Fireproof the movie was garbage and shows how women are absolved of all responsibility. The wife had an emotional affair with another man in the movie and didnt respect or love her husband. If anything the movies encouraged wives to break their vows if the husband isn't being perfect. The movie was disgusting.
@@cubed0724 The same company that made Fireproof made another movie called "War Room" aimed ENTIRELY at women and their responsibility to God and their husband. It was beautiful. Fireproof was equally beautiful as it is aimed at men and their role. In the movie, when he apologizes, he says he is sorry for like 6 YEARS of TROMPING on her in every way. The movie begins AFTER his years of taking her for granted and emotionally abusing her, when she has given up and no longer cares about him and has lost all respect for him. So, yes, she's not perfect in the movie, just like the man in "war room" is not perfect. But it's about what a man can do to fix his marriage (even when he has done everything possible to destroy it before turning his heart to God.) Ideally...BOTH partners will do their part and walk humbly before the Lord. But realistically, usually one partner has to start the process alone and be committed to keeping THEIR OWN VOWS to God and their partner, whether the other person leaves them or not. I really appreciate both movies very much and I think both are very accurate about how men and women react and think very differently.
@@christianone6611 The reason she stayed is because he gave her everything she wanted. She didn't respect him because he wouldn't use their savings to pay for her mom's treatment which he wanted to use for buying a boat he wanted even though she made plenty of money as a full time nurse. She never respected him and denied herself to him. Also when she was involved with the affair with the doctor who was married himself mind you and she didn't care. No, apology for stepping out on her husband. Basically the premise I got from the movie is do everything your wife wants or she'll leave you for another man and it's all about her happiness. The real digusting part of the movie I found was when the he found the love letters by the doctor to his wife and when he confronted the doctor who was married by the way, said, "You're not the only one pursing her, you've got competition." There is no competition period, they were married. If anything this movie represents the mentality of Christian's today where the women dominate the men and can break their vows at whim because it's all about the wives happiness.
I'm soon to be married, and your messages are really helping me to build a solid foundation. I only pray that I will be mature in heart and mind to walk in these precepts, as well as ask God for His grace when needed, and not revert to default/old responses and habits. God bless your ministry.
God bless you brother! May the living God helps you in honoring and serving your helpmeet (wife) :) Depend on God's strength alone, he will sustain you that's the key :) Be blessed and multiply in Jesus Name Shalom
@@framboise595 could u elaborate. Do u mean he should be rough enough on her physically and emotionally so that she may fear him. There’s a difference between respecting somebody bc u love them, and respecting them bc u fear them.
I definitely am my husband's treasure ❤️ he tells me and shows me all the time. Most of his dreams and goals are about protecting me and providing for me. He is the most amazing man of God.
Gabrielle S. : it says more about God. Romans 7:18 For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out.
"Makes her my treasure..." Love that line! Uniquely created by God, then He showed me just how much He loves me by Gifting her to me. You bet I will protect her!
Emmanuela Oduro Basically, your wife was on of your choices, when you criticize her, you are criticizing your own choice and therefore you’re criticism is about you.
To love God, is to love those he has placed in our lives, especially our wife and children. How do we love them, as Christ loves the Church, fully, sacrificially, always with honor and respect.
How do u love your husband if he dose not live for God dose not want nothing to do with God and want to get a divorce for his wife following God how do u love your husband if he was physical abusive and is still very verbal abusive towards the wife and kids how do u love a husband if he mocks u as a child of God and is always bring you down and your faith for loving God
This is the kind of husband I am waiting for. God honoring, protective, gentle, provider; not arrogant, prone to ridiculous bouts of anger; not abusive, in any way. I wait, oh Lord. Your will. Your man!
@@Pantominas497 It is all about women nowadays. Most have no clue that God made the woman for the man and not the man for the woman. We are deceived by fallacious teachings like this one and so many others that focus like crazy on the "male love" . THE receipe for disaster.
This is very sweet and I very much agree. Whenever there’s been a weird sound my husband doesn’t even stop to look at me. He will say “stay here.” Over his shoulder and he’s already investigating.
Men have treated me poorly, especially when I was younger and I now realize they did me a favor. It toughened me up. I have ceased to be the "weaker vessel", as you put it. I live alone and when there's a noise downstairs I go down with a double barreled shotgun. You take this man/woman thing way too seriously. You do what you have to do. If I can't take care of myself it makes me feel weak and inadequate. What God has "designed", the world molds and shapes.
@@nightjar8898 Men and women are radically different from each other, if you find a godly man who loves you as he loves himself; you will see how regal and astonishing God created the opposite sex. God bless you dear.
@@nightjar8898 Those men that have treated you poorly, were not real men in the eyes of God. A real man would treated you with honour and love. I'm sorry that your experience has caused you to think this way. But I think you've met the wrong men. You'll find the right one eventually.
And yet... I respectfully disagree. I can see how in the natural that thinking works, but it's not biblical. Because men fail and they need Jesus just as much as the ladies do. When we curse or withhold love for the men because they are not "performing" up to a preferred standard. When we absolve women of sin and give a little grace to men, we are creating a church of emasculated men who are controlled, not loved. Not honored. A business relationship, not marriage. I don't expect many true, born again Christians to like my comment. But read the bible. Abuse is not sanctioned from Jesus to a woman or a man. Love unconditionally. Peace.
I've never heard anyone say women are valuable and deserving of as much honour and love as John Piper has expressed here! Never! God bless you! All my life I've struggled with men, husbands and pastors indirectly putting women down. I've struggled with my own sense on self worth for the whole of my life. Thank you for telling men to rise up and give honour to their wives and families. God bless you immensely
@ Joannah Ukpe Oh those poor women always victims .. As if modern day women were still valuable and deserving of honour and love ! Piper worships women and puts them on a pedestal and tells other men to do so . It is pure idolatry . He just fuels our narcissist part to its maximulm.
I'm so sorry you have had to see the bad parts of humanity. I've been seeing those lately too and it is very hurtful and discouraging to see certain men so talk down to and disrespect women. But I remind myself that this is not a characteristic of men, but a characteristic of an evil, lost, and perverse person. Both men and women can be those things. When we personally experience that hurt from men, and then we see it happening multiple times in different situations, it can lead us to the assumption that men are just like that. But I know that men are not like that, not godly ones. Real men are kind, compassionate, gentle, slow to anger, and protectors. They use their strength to defend, not to harm. They are what John Piper is describing. And thankfully the majority of men I've met fit that description. I'm so sorry you've seen so much of the bad side of things in your life. Here's what the Bible directly says about how a godly man treats his wife: "Husbands, in the same way, be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers." -1 Peter 3:7 "In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church" -Ephesians 5:28-29 "Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them." -Colossians 3:19 Whatever morally degenerate people you encounter in your life, remember that Jesus loves women and calls men to do the same. You are worth being loved and treated with respect. ❤🙏
@@framboise595 "In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church" -Ephesians 5:28-29 "Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them." -Colossians 3:19 "Husbands, in the same way, be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers." -1 Peter 3:7 "The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money." -1 Timothy 3:1-3 John Piper's words come straight from the Bible. If you do not believe them, then it's you who is worshipping an idol: yourself.
WOW It's great to hear men still feel this way that's how I was raised by a man who treated my mother so well that made me love him even more. This gives me hope he's coming. Thank you!
@@ItsTrevorkeExcuse me, but we are christians. We are not asked to love people if they “deserve it”. We all deserve death because of our sin. I know that you are talking of a hard-to-live-with person, but we are still slaves of Christ, if he loves us and is patient with us even with all our sins, shouldn't we do that with others that haven't sinned against us that much?
So Yesterday, I was complaining to my bf about how much I have gained weight over the year and how unhappy I am with all the stress I was going thru. I was mad at him for not helping me lose it or pushing me to becoming healthier, he answered back that all he saw was how happy I am when I am Full from eating 😅. Never once he complained about how I gained weight or made any abusive/ hurtful jokes to change me or compare me. He loved and admired me no matter how small or big I was becoming because he loved me for ME, not how I looked. This is how I know he loves me unconditionally, and that God gave me the right man. Yes we going to the gym soon. 😂 thank u love, & thank You God 💓 I am beyond grateful 🙏 I pray that one day you all will find that special someone out there! 😙
I agree with what he is saying. I wholeheartedly love my wife and I want to protect, honor, cherish and support her in the best way I can and with Christ who strengthens me. Also we need to fully dedicate ourselves and give 100%, otherwise it's not working and I think won't be mutually fulfilling in the long run.
@ MegaBoomer1996 Putting the male love forward is such a vicious trick of the devil . Their fake teachings have almost turned "love" into something platonic that can NEVER be a fortress against sexual temptations . Nothing can be more devilish than telling married men that they have to "love "their wives and not telling them that they are entitled to sex as the Bible says.
@@MegaBoomer1996 You're right with the body belonging to the other spouse but this is not what is preached today. What I mean by "male love" is the focus on one verse " husbands , love your wives etc..".
What you're saying is interesting, because I heard a lot of times in church that men focus too much on the female love and argue women should submit to them whereas they are not submitted to Christ. The focus needs to be on the person of Jesus. If we seek his face, his presence, if we seek his word, then that will change us from the inside out and only in that way can we truly love our spouse and others.
I soo agree.. I pray all the women here have a worthy man for them.and vice versa.... The men get women who deserve them. My marriage was nothing lile this i am still broken but i know God has purpose for Me and the right Man will come along and treat me as his treasure..
D Pagne Amen 🙏🏽 and yes my marriage was nothing like this either. The Holy Spirit revealed to me the things this guy is speaking of. I two was broken. but today I am totally healed Jesus set me free. and I speak life to you right now In the name of Jesus be heal be whole and be set free NOW from all brokenness IN JESUS NAME!!! 🙏🏽
Warrior Princess 4 Jesus I also pray that y’all won’t manipulate that man integrity and love catering to you because that’s what most modern western woman does today. It is a balance, you most give 110% and he must as well
Hi Natalia, praying for your heart right now. That the Lord's love and peace that surpasses all understanding may fill you up and joy may pour out. The love of Christ heal your heart and change it with a new, loving and forgiving heart. Amen. I've been in your place before Nat, and I know how horrible it feels to become like the person (s) who hurt you in the past. But good news! Transformation of the mind and healing of the broken heart is only as far as a fervent prayer longing for Jesus. He delights in the brokenhearted and those who are contrite in spirit. Don't lose heart, dear. There is a full and legitimate hope in our God!
I understand this as I have/had harsh men in my life... I have no intent to bash men, ...as I have also known some beautiful ones. I understand there are a lot of I'll women out there who are hurting good men. Souring them against women all together. This makes me so sad... Because we all deserve to show Love, and be Loved, and to not be closed off from this great joyful gift God has given all of us. The gift of giving and receiving Love.🙂❤️
If you've had sex before marriage.... good luck. You aren't being a godly woman 🤷♂️ You getting tattoos and drinking all night? Not godly. But you want a good Christian man? Lmao. Good luck. 🤣 If by SOME miracle you DON'T do what I just said.... then you are the most sought after female ever. Unless you're hideous or have such extreme standards no man could meet them.... you'll get married basically at any point you want 🤷♂️ (with the exception of reaching into your 30s)
Beautifuly said, my partner and I have been together 16 years, we always want to do for each other we never say 5050 we just do because we love each other I am so blessed to have him that God brought us together, thank for sharing this it's owful there's so many broken relationships over money, things no compromise. God bless you
The bible tells us "Husbands LOVE your wives.. and wives respect (honour, revere) your husbands.. women love to be loved.. (hugged and kissed and told everything will be okay) and husbands love to be respected and looked up to and praised etc etc (what big muscles you have, you're so good with your hands, you're such a good provider, etc etc).. haha it's actually true.. -Micaela's mum
Very true Micaela. What do you think about this verse👉Titus 2:4-5 King James Version (KJV) 4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
@@gailland8681 The reason I ask you this is because you need to look at LOVE as a principle not a feeling. Although emotions enhance Love for sure. Principles are practiced to produce a desired result. So what results are you looking for?
It's sad that Pastor John preaches the truth from the Gospel and yet outside of his church it doesn't reflect or is practiced in our society today. We hear it and love it but we don't do it because society tells us we are wrong and should let the weaker vessel be 50/50 with the man and sometimes even in charge of being the provider.
It is 6:34am, and your video was recommended on my home channel...it is amazing. I was just telling my husband yesterday how very unhappy I've been all four years of our marriage...and then I wake up to your video...
Praise the Lord for real Christian men who honor their wives, and love them like Christ loves His Bride, His Body, His Church!! Love is an action word, not a slogan!!!💞❤️🙏🏽
@@cynthiagalvan837 You have to find them cute for you to be attracted to them if you're like me. If you're not attracted why are you marrying? Ok, there may be good reasons, but I worry slightly that aspects of how society and even churches portray the relationship become idols for us. Is fear of being alone your motivation for interest in a guy you aren't attracted to? Questions like that are important imo, because a marriage might end up being a big distraction from and covering up of your need for community with sisters in christ and fearlessly serving God. Just my thoughts. I might be persuaded to change my mind.
@B10401 You are right. It’s your opinion, But I LIKE it. The reason I asked was I kinda tried to dissect her question. It wasn’t just an open general question. It was to the point type of question. (Exclamation marks and question mark) led me to 🤔 think. Aah cuteness first, christianity second. I have nothing against cuteness, good looking etc. etc. But could be missing out on a very very good Christian Man. I hope she finds what she is looking for. GOD BLESS YOU.
Loving God with all our might is the key in loving our wife/husband (irrespective of how that person behaves). After all that's exactly what my Lord does to me (the truly saved).
I really wish to meet a man like that. The women around me are all in unhappy marriages. I want something different if I ever marry. I need someone that can protect me, gentle but strong that I can count on. Someone I can respect, love and that will always be there for me.
@ Be Andal " The women around me are all in unhappy marriages" Maybe their husbands worship them too much and is unable to have sex with them... Typical of the modern western simp so afraid to touch his own wife because you know , women are such "treasures" !!! But women hate those men who treat them like china dolls !!
How absolutely beautiful to hear this wise man share this! I feel so encouraged listening to this message. I am single-never married and no kids. My desire and dream is to marry someone like this - a man who honors God and who can honor me, as his wife. This contributes to a beautiful relationship. But women too should honor their husbands in their attitude towards them-we should also treat them with respect-being loving and caring. May God bless this speaker for sharing such a beautiful message!
@@hawk6143 This is how Piper and co maliciously keep women away from marriage by raising the bar for men in such an unscriptural way . Women made for and because of man kept away from marriage ! . So fornication can go full swing (to avoid sexual immorality , let every man have his wife (...) ) Good job Satan.
Many are hurting because of generational trauma. The church could be more compassionate like God & condescend to the brokenness of this current generation rather than saying "they're getting what they deserve, they've brought it on themselves"
cathy zhang AMEN!!! So true!!! We need men with spines who are UNAFRAID to be MEN for GOD (NOT selves)... So much self-serving entitlement sissified men nowadays, they act more like little girls than women sometimes... I think it’s one of the ways Satan is destroying our society - by sissifying men and turning into girlish behaviors...
@@indakgalak ..... You are Correct Sir and I have Noticed this as well when I go out shopping with my wife (which is Rarely) but during this past Christmas season I see a ton of so called "men" that by their Actions alone they acted more like little sissy women without any Backbone than I seen real men by Farrrrr!! Sad to say but this Homosexuals thing is taking all these what would be men over......
[ only because women shave their hair from even the part from the nose below to the upper lip, does not make the fact that they are overly-masculine go away too, does it? This bad men, bad women bashing is not going to get us any where, and i can agree, being numb, selfish, calculating and self protecting after having been beaten while handcuffed and force-medicated with no consequences for the perpetrators. I should not have clicked on the video, because, it is clear a woman feels triggered, when a man brings up that she is the weaker sex, i donot do this, i think a woman is in a way the stronger sex, it is scientific fact, that she can endure more pain that she has when birthing a child, and the fact, that she has the capacity to bring a child to life is beyond my comprehension. However, the new age is dangerous and to let it not take over traditional gender roles would us do no harm. I believe that god is just and we get what we deserve in the end. I hope, that we can learn to love one another unconditionally, because we are all sinners in a way or another. I forgive those who beat me in Jesus name. and ps: perhaps so should you, forgive those, who are not the way, as you would want them to be. ]
As a single woman, this feels really good to hear. :) In my opinion, this protective way of honouring is especially important, because women have a greater yearning of feeling safe, and so if I imagine that I could trust someone to attempt to protect me, it would make me have a lot more trust in that person.
@ David Thompson You honour someone worthy of honour ! Not a disgraceful wife. Proverbs 31 man honours and even praises his wife because she is worth it. But you cannot honour a Vashti .
Wow, so good. So amazing to find this video from 2016 when it was only recently the masculinity vs femininity thing goes trending. The wisdom of the Word is indeed everlasting ❤
Ephesians 5:25 Husbands love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and (gave himself for it, 5:28 So ought men to love their wives as ( their own bodies).
My husband is a “professing” Christian, He has me working 50+ hours a week while I’m walking around with cancer and other health problems. Doing even hard physical labor. Talking care of things that are clearly his responsibility. He’s abusive in every way except physical. Reason and logic, lovingkindness in communication do NOT work. He has annihilated me in every way including financially and I would appreciate prayers as I need to remove myself from this person. I believe they are not only ruled by their flesh, but possibly demonized. Thank you.
Dear one, God gave you talents to multiply and have stewardship over, not to let be drained out by an ungodly man or wolf in sheep's clothing. Biblically, you are to take him to the elders and if he does not repent, you do it again, and of he does not repent, you take him before the church, and if he does not repent, you are to have nothing to do with him. By repent, I do not mean saying "sorry". I mean "fruits meet for repentance" aka his words and actions match up, he is sincerely sorry and he doesn't go back to sinning. So for an abusive person, that's basically 3 chances. For a godly person who makes "innocent" or ignorant mistakes and sins and they correct themselves, you are to forgive them 7times x70 (an infinite amount). But God is never asking a woman to submit to an evil, rebellious, unloving, cruel man. A wolf in sheep's clothing is to be avoided to protect thy very self. If he stresses you to the point that you are unable to do basic self care steps like tending to your relationship with God, growing in his love, reading the word, serving God Christian's etc...then he is preventing you from multiplying your God given talents and you'll be ashamed in front of God that you lost all he gave to your stewardship by enabling an ungodly, abusive man. Some preachers are narcissistic and imply you should support and enable any man with any behavior. That is not true. Our first love and loyalty is to God and keeping his commandments and certainly respecting and honoring a godly loving man. Take care of you. Maybe this guy is reflecting the relationship you have with yourself...aka he always blames you and you always blame you. So change that dear one. Not by now blaming him but by no longer attacking yourself as a precious child of God. Receive the LOVE God has for you and be filled to overflowing by it. God bless you in healing. Maybe a demonic deliverance ministry will help you break any generational curses or unholy soul ties or cast out any evil oppression or possession stopping you thus far. I pray that all the generous abundance you tried to shower your partner with will come back to you ten fold and that you will be wiser about where you invest it in future. Invest in the people who love, support, respect, and cooperate with you in God's will, purpose, and destiny for your life. God bless you!
Cubed07 Good Question that many often ask with similar situations. Obviously he exhibited zero of this behavior prior to marriage or I would not have married him. First, I learned he is has NPD. I was unaware of this, as most are taken by surprise. I also believe this was an assignment from the Lord, however due to God’s gift to us of Freewill, he has chosen to take the route of his flesh rather than the Spirit of God in his behavior and responses to Life’s challenges. It’s very sad. I believ his prior behavior was not real fruit, but works..I seek to learn all I can out of the situation as I move forward and away. I lean on scripture God promises me years ago. Like all people, I have days I can’t handle the behavior as well I can as other days. I believe God is giving him many chances to repent before he dies.
Kia Ash Dear Kia Ash, thank you so much for your lovingkindness and taking the time to intercede on my behalf. I pray God restores your time 10 fold, and blesses you.
Hallelujah, In agreement with this complete message I loosen the promises of 1 corinthians 11:7, proverbs 5:15-20 and 1 peter 3:7, 2 corinthians 6:14-18 binding my godly husband will glorify me as his godly woman in his life, binding to hell all that comes against the glory of man upon no return in my life, binding any man that loves me well to speak out his true intentions with me while leading me to Christ with love and with the fruits of the holy spirit, binding to hell being unequally yoked with and have any common share with any husband that will not glorify me as his wife and any man not leading me to Christ with love and the fruits of the holy spirit, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah! Thank you God.

What about communication with your spouse, I may not be married, but as a college student I am learning that communication is super important in any relationship. And you don't really get what you want through lack of communication... I hope you and your husband have figured it out by know. But I will still be praying for you

May God bless me with this a Man that will treat me with tenderness and love all our lives. I know submission will be easier for me when he treats me as he ought to. 🙏
@ sipz sipz We despise those men who are so tender and loving. They are deep turn off. You don't even know that GOD was the first one to treat us quite harshly by inflicting us more pain .and telling our husband will rule over us. If we don't get this rough part , we automatically scorn the man and his gentleness and tenderness. A man must be dominant enough otherwise we won't respect him at all.
I gotta agree with isabelle who is a man by the way. Why you role playing my guy? That tenderness and kindness gets you turned down real fast with women. Just saying.
Contrast plus harmony (love) creates an explosion of joy (celebration) whereby the joy created is greater than the sum of the parts. The greater the light and warmth the sparks posses...the greater the explosion of joy (celebration). Not to be confused with "Art of the Deal". Whereby contrast plus greed (absence of love) makes misery, ugliness and conflict.

As spoken so beautifully by Fireproof the movie, "A woman is like a rose, you treat her right she'll bloom, but if you don't she'll wilt."
Fireproof the movie was garbage and shows how women are absolved of all responsibility. The wife had an emotional affair with another man in the movie and didnt respect or love her husband.

The movie begins AFTER his years of taking her for granted and emotionally abusing her, when she has given up and no longer cares about him and has lost all respect for him. So, yes, she's not perfect in the movie, just like the man in "war room" is not perfect. But it's about what a man can do to fix his marriage (even when he has done everything possible to destroy it before turning his heart to God.) Ideally...BOTH partners will do their part and walk humbly before the Lord. But realistically, usually one partner has to start the process alone and be committed to keeping THEIR OWN VOWS to God and their partner, whether the other person leaves them or not.

If anything this movie represents the mentality of Christian's today where the women dominate the men and can break their vows at whim because it's all about the wives happiness.

I'm soon to be married, and your messages are really helping me to build a solid foundation. I only pray that I will be mature in heart and mind to walk in these precepts, as well as ask God for His grace when needed, and not revert to default/old responses and habits. God bless your ministry.

Lincoln Deane God bless you and your wife's marriage! :)
Lincoln Deane there is this young woman whom i love and i just keep asking God for her, His will be done though. God bless you brother.
God bless you brother! May the living God helps you in honoring and serving your helpmeet (wife) :)
Depend on God's strength alone, he will sustain you that's the key :)
Be blessed and multiply in Jesus Name

Lincoln Deane i hope your marriage flourishes it may not be easy all the time but love is beauty walk with god together
I'm so grateful I have a husband who is gentle and honors me.
@ jenna crawford
No man should be "gentle" only. A man must be rough enough to be respected by his wife.
Is he still gentle and honors u ?
@@framboise595 could u elaborate. Do u mean he should be rough enough on her physically and emotionally so that she may fear him. There’s a difference between respecting somebody bc u love them, and respecting them bc u fear them.
I definitely am my husband's treasure ❤️ he tells me and shows me all the time. Most of his dreams and goals are about protecting me and providing for me. He is the most amazing man of God.
I love being a woman of respect and having a husband who respects me.
I admire my husband for the man he is.
That's the kind of husband I pray i get a man who honors me as his wife 💍❤🙇🏽♀️💍2020

Uniquely created by God FOR the man , for HIS needs first and foremost.
Never criticize your wife; she is a reflection of your judgement.
Hey! Interesting comment, would you be able to elaborate on this , I would love to understand what you mean
GOOD one!
Emmanuela Oduro Basically, your wife was on of your choices, when you criticize her, you are criticizing your own choice and therefore you’re criticism is about you.
Wow... Spot on
@@queenie_2_0_2_4 and you become one flesh.
To love God, is to love those he has placed in our lives, especially our wife and children.
How do we love them, as Christ loves the Church, fully, sacrificially, always with honor and respect.
Bible Munch Yes sure we can. God loves the church just like a husband loves his wife.
Thank you Bible Munch.
AMEN!!!!💛
Absolutely.
How do u love your husband if he dose not live for God dose not want nothing to do with God and want to get a divorce for his wife following God how do u love your husband if he was physical abusive and is still very verbal abusive towards the wife and kids how do u love a husband if he mocks u as a child of God and is always bring you down and your faith for loving God
This is the kind of husband I am waiting for. God honoring, protective, gentle, provider; not arrogant, prone to ridiculous bouts of anger; not abusive, in any way. I wait, oh Lord. Your will. Your man!

@@framboise595 are u a woman or a man
Wow ... I'm touched... Only God's people can have such wisdom and understanding .. so much clarity..
He got me at “She’s the weaker vessel of God. Honor her.” That made all the sense in the world.
This is very sweet and I very much agree. Whenever there’s been a weird sound my husband doesn’t even stop to look at me. He will say “stay here.” Over his shoulder and he’s already investigating.
Where men do their Job to Love and honour, women are led to respect and submit
Men have treated me poorly, especially when I was younger and I now realize they did me a favor. It toughened me up. I have ceased to be the "weaker vessel", as you put it. I live alone and when there's a noise downstairs I go down with a double barreled shotgun. You take this man/woman thing way too seriously.
You do what you have to do. If I can't take care of myself it makes me feel weak and inadequate. What God has "designed", the world molds and shapes.
@@nightjar8898
Men and women are radically different from each other, if you find a godly man who loves you as he loves himself; you will see how regal and astonishing God created the opposite sex. God bless you dear.
@@nightjar8898 Those men that have treated you poorly, were not real men in the eyes of God. A real man would treated you with honour and love. I'm sorry that your experience has caused you to think this way. But I think you've met the wrong men. You'll find the right one eventually.
@@PrinceJes I don't care.
And yet... I respectfully disagree. I can see how in the natural that thinking works, but it's not biblical. Because men fail and they need Jesus just as much as the ladies do. When we curse or withhold love for the men because they are not "performing" up to a preferred standard. When we absolve women of sin and give a little grace to men, we are creating a church of emasculated men who are controlled, not loved. Not honored. A business relationship, not marriage. I don't expect many true, born again Christians to like my comment. But read the bible. Abuse is not sanctioned from Jesus to a woman or a man. Love unconditionally. Peace.
I’ve always felt this but he confirmed it.
My thoughts exactly and my arguement all the time to my then husband who didnt get the point why we couldnt be 50/50 all the time
I've never heard anyone say women are valuable and deserving of as much honour and love as John Piper has expressed here! Never! God bless you! All my life I've struggled with men, husbands and pastors indirectly putting women down. I've struggled with my own sense on self worth for the whole of my life. Thank you for telling men to rise up and give honour to their wives and families. God bless you immensely
@ Joannah Ukpe
Oh those poor women always victims ..
As if modern day women were still valuable and deserving of honour and love !
Piper worships women and puts them on a pedestal and tells other men to do so .
It is pure idolatry .
He just fuels our narcissist part to its maximulm.
I'm so sorry you have had to see the bad parts of humanity. I've been seeing those lately too and it is very hurtful and discouraging to see certain men so talk down to and disrespect women. But I remind myself that this is not a characteristic of men, but a characteristic of an evil, lost, and perverse person. Both men and women can be those things. When we personally experience that hurt from men, and then we see it happening multiple times in different situations, it can lead us to the assumption that men are just like that. But I know that men are not like that, not godly ones. Real men are kind, compassionate, gentle, slow to anger, and protectors. They use their strength to defend, not to harm. They are what John Piper is describing. And thankfully the majority of men I've met fit that description. I'm so sorry you've seen so much of the bad side of things in your life. Here's what the Bible directly says about how a godly man treats his wife:
"Husbands, in the same way, be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers."
-1 Peter 3:7
"In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church"
-Ephesians 5:28-29
"Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them."
-Colossians 3:19
Whatever morally degenerate people you encounter in your life, remember that Jesus loves women and calls men to do the same. You are worth being loved and treated with respect. ❤🙏
@@framboise595 "In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church"
-Ephesians 5:28-29
"Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them."
-Colossians 3:19
"Husbands, in the same way, be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers."
-1 Peter 3:7
"The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money."
-1 Timothy 3:1-3
John Piper's words come straight from the Bible. If you do not believe them, then it's you who is worshipping an idol: yourself.
The only design that works!!! The real one!!!! God’s way.
WOW It's great to hear men still feel this way that's how I was raised by a man who treated my mother so well that made me love him even more. This gives me hope he's coming. Thank you!
If it's not reciprocal, you're in for a world of pain. A wife must be well chosen, beware.
Truly, not all women deserve these special treatments in 21st century.
True. Women want and want...but don’t submit to their husbands. What man doesn’t want to love and protect his wife?
@@ItsTrevorkeExcuse me, but we are christians. We are not asked to love people if they “deserve it”. We all deserve death because of our sin. I know that you are talking of a hard-to-live-with person, but we are still slaves of Christ, if he loves us and is patient with us even with all our sins, shouldn't we do that with others that haven't sinned against us that much?
So Yesterday, I was complaining to my bf about how much I have gained weight over the year and how unhappy I am with all the stress I was going thru. I was mad at him for not helping me lose it or pushing me to becoming healthier, he answered back that all he saw was how happy I am when I am Full from eating 😅. Never once he complained about how I gained weight or made any abusive/ hurtful jokes to change me or compare me. He loved and admired me no matter how small or big I was becoming because he loved me for ME, not how I looked. This is how I know he loves me unconditionally, and that God gave me the right man. Yes we going to the gym soon. 😂 thank u love, & thank You God 💓 I am beyond grateful 🙏 I pray that one day you all will find that special someone out there! 😙
@ Mai 3
Yes but do your best to look good and not gain too much weight though so that your husband always desires you .
I pray my daughter is blessed with a man who will love her like this.
I agree with what he is saying. I wholeheartedly love my wife and I want to protect, honor, cherish and support her in the best way I can and with Christ who strengthens me. Also we need to fully dedicate ourselves and give 100%, otherwise it's not working and I think won't be mutually fulfilling in the long run.
@ MegaBoomer1996
Putting the male love forward is such a vicious trick of the devil .
Their fake teachings have almost turned "love" into something platonic that can NEVER be a fortress against sexual temptations .
Nothing can be more devilish than telling married men that they have to "love "their wives and not telling them that they are entitled to sex as the Bible says.
@@framboise595
What do you mean by "male love"
The husbands body belongs to the wife and the wifes body belongs to the husband.
@@MegaBoomer1996
You're right with the body belonging to the other spouse but this is not what is preached today.
What I mean by "male love" is the focus on one verse " husbands , love your wives etc..".
What you're saying is interesting, because I heard a lot of times in church that men focus too much on the female love and argue women should submit to them whereas they are not submitted to Christ.
The focus needs to be on the person of Jesus. If we seek his face, his presence, if we seek his word, then that will change us from the inside out and only in that way can we truly love our spouse and others.
I appreciate this video. I’m so glad there is a man that realizes these things. and teaching other men
I soo agree.. I pray all the women here have a worthy man for them.and vice versa.... The men get women who deserve them. My marriage was nothing lile this i am still broken but i know God has purpose for Me and the right Man will come along and treat me as his treasure..
D Pagne Amen 🙏🏽 and yes my marriage was nothing like this either. The Holy Spirit revealed to me the things this guy is speaking of.

I've been in your place before Nat, and I know how horrible it feels to become like the person (s) who hurt you in the past.
But good news! Transformation of the mind and healing of the broken heart is only as far as a fervent prayer longing for Jesus. He delights in the brokenhearted and those who are contrite in spirit. Don't lose heart, dear. There is a full and legitimate hope in our God!
I understand this as I have/had harsh men in my life... I have no intent to bash men, ...as I have also known some beautiful ones.
I understand there are a lot of I'll women out there who are hurting good men. Souring them against women all together. This makes me so sad... Because we all deserve to show Love, and be Loved, and to not be closed off from this great joyful gift God has given all of us. The gift of giving and receiving Love.🙂❤️
If you've had sex before marriage.... good luck. You aren't being a godly woman 🤷♂️
You getting tattoos and drinking all night? Not godly.

@@cynthiagalvan837 You have to find them cute for you to be attracted to them if you're like me. If you're not attracted why are you marrying?
Ok, there may be good reasons, but I worry slightly that aspects of how society and even churches portray the relationship become idols for us. Is fear of being alone your motivation for interest in a guy you aren't attracted to? Questions like that are important imo, because a marriage might end up being a big distraction from and covering up of your need for community with sisters in christ and fearlessly serving God.
Just my thoughts. I might be persuaded to change my mind.
@B10401 You are right. It’s your opinion, But I LIKE it. The reason I asked was I kinda tried to dissect her question. It wasn’t just an open general question. It was to the point type of question.

This is how Piper and co maliciously keep women away from marriage by raising the bar for men in such an unscriptural way . Women made for and because of man kept away from marriage ! . So fornication can go full swing (to avoid sexual immorality , let every man have his wife (...) )
Good job Satan.
Men are failing those days. Most are numb, selfish, calculating and self protective....
Many are hurting because of generational trauma. The church could be more compassionate like God & condescend to the brokenness of this current generation rather than saying "they're getting what they deserve, they've brought it on themselves"
cathy zhang AMEN!!! So true!!! We need men with spines who are UNAFRAID to be MEN for GOD (NOT selves)... So much self-serving entitlement sissified men nowadays, they act more like little girls than women sometimes... I think it’s one of the ways Satan is destroying our society - by sissifying men and turning into girlish behaviors...
But many women have taken advantage of good men.
@@indakgalak ..... You are Correct Sir and I have Noticed this as well when I go out shopping with my wife (which is Rarely) but during this past Christmas season I see a ton of so called "men" that by their Actions alone they acted more like little sissy women without any Backbone than I seen real men by Farrrrr!! Sad to say but this Homosexuals thing is taking all these what would be men over......
[ only because women shave their hair from even the part from the nose below to the upper lip, does not make the fact that they are overly-masculine go away too, does it? This bad men, bad women bashing is not going to get us any where, and i can agree, being numb, selfish, calculating and self protecting after having been beaten while handcuffed and force-medicated with no consequences for the perpetrators. I should not have clicked on the video, because, it is clear a woman feels triggered, when a man brings up that she is the weaker sex, i donot do this, i think a woman is in a way the stronger sex, it is scientific fact, that she can endure more pain that she has when birthing a child, and the fact, that she has the capacity to bring a child to life is beyond my comprehension. However, the new age is dangerous and to let it not take over traditional gender roles would us do no harm. I believe that god is just and we get what we deserve in the end. I hope, that we can learn to love one another unconditionally, because we are all sinners in a way or another. I forgive those who beat me in Jesus name. and ps: perhaps so should you, forgive those, who are not the way, as you would want them to be. ]
As a single woman, this feels really good to hear. :) In my opinion, this protective way of honouring is especially important, because women have a greater yearning of feeling safe, and so if I imagine that I could trust someone to attempt to protect me, it would make me have a lot more trust in that person.
Absolutely beautiful and true! Amen 💕

The best 4 mins of my life so far :)
My husband is a “professing” Christian, He has me working 50+ hours a week while I’m walking around with cancer and other health problems. Doing even hard physical labor. Talking care of things that are clearly his responsibility. He’s abusive in every way except physical. Reason and logic, lovingkindness in communication do NOT work. He has annihilated me in every way including financially and I would appreciate prayers as I need to remove myself from this person. I believe they are not only ruled by their flesh, but possibly demonized. Thank you.
Dear one, God gave you talents to multiply and have stewardship over, not to let be drained out by an ungodly man or wolf in sheep's clothing. Biblically, you are to take him to the elders and if he does not repent, you do it again, and of he does not repent, you take him before the church, and if he does not repent, you are to have nothing to do with him. By repent, I do not mean saying "sorry". I mean "fruits meet for repentance" aka his words and actions match up, he is sincerely sorry and he doesn't go back to sinning. So for an abusive person, that's basically 3 chances.
For a godly person who makes "innocent" or ignorant mistakes and sins and they correct themselves, you are to forgive them 7times x70 (an infinite amount). But God is never asking a woman to submit to an evil, rebellious, unloving, cruel man. A wolf in sheep's clothing is to be avoided to protect thy very self. If he stresses you to the point that you are unable to do basic self care steps like tending to your relationship with God, growing in his love, reading the word, serving God Christian's etc...then he is preventing you from multiplying your God given talents and you'll be ashamed in front of God that you lost all he gave to your stewardship by enabling an ungodly, abusive man. Some preachers are narcissistic and imply you should support and enable any man with any behavior. That is not true. Our first love and loyalty is to God and keeping his commandments and certainly respecting and honoring a godly loving man. Take care of you. Maybe this guy is reflecting the relationship you have with yourself...aka he always blames you and you always blame you. So change that dear one. Not by now blaming him but by no longer attacking yourself as a precious child of God. Receive the LOVE God has for you and be filled to overflowing by it. God bless you in healing. Maybe a demonic deliverance ministry will help you break any generational curses or unholy soul ties or cast out any evil oppression or possession stopping you thus far. I pray that all the generous abundance you tried to shower your partner with will come back to you ten fold and that you will be wiser about where you invest it in future. Invest in the people who love, support, respect, and cooperate with you in God's will, purpose, and destiny for your life. God bless you!
Why did you marry him? What the hell attracted you to him?
I will definitely be praying for you dear
Cubed07 Good Question that many often ask with similar situations. Obviously he exhibited zero of this behavior prior to marriage or I would not have married him. First, I learned he is has NPD. I was unaware of this, as most are taken by surprise. I also believe this was an assignment from the Lord, however due to God’s gift to us of Freewill, he has chosen to take the route of his flesh rather than the Spirit of God in his behavior and responses to Life’s challenges. It’s very sad. I believ his prior behavior was not real fruit, but works..I seek to learn all I can out of the situation as I move forward and away. I lean on scripture God promises me years ago. Like all people, I have days I can’t handle the behavior as well I can as other days. I believe God is giving him many chances to repent before he dies.
Kia Ash Dear Kia Ash, thank you so much for your lovingkindness and taking the time to intercede on my behalf. I pray God restores your time 10 fold, and blesses you.
Thank you sir.. I will teach this to my son.
Hallelujah, In agreement with this complete message I loosen the promises of 1 corinthians 11:7, proverbs 5:15-20 and 1 peter 3:7, 2 corinthians 6:14-18 binding my godly husband will glorify me as his godly woman in his life, binding to hell all that comes against the glory of man upon no return in my life, binding any man that loves me well to speak out his true intentions with me while leading me to Christ with love and with the fruits of the holy spirit, binding to hell being unequally yoked with and have any common share with any husband that will not glorify me as his wife and any man not leading me to Christ with love and the fruits of the holy spirit, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah! Thank you God.
The whole truth,,, nothing but the truth! So help us God to abide by these principles and our marriages will be heaven on earth
Woow...how I pray to have a husband who treats me with honor.This is my prayer in Jesus' name.AMEN 🙏🙏
I strongly believe in masculine & feminine energy, the yin & the yang. I’m so soft & feminine, this is the only type of man I can respect & submit to
PREACHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH JOHN!!!
I love this message it is godly

Amen 💪🏽. Chivalry is NOT dead. If a woman thinks that it is, it's not the Woman's fault but the Mans. If she cant hold him accountable to that she thinks Chivalry is Dead
Love this, I believe in this, and I believe in the MEN who believe in this.
Thank you for being our protectors. ❤️
may God bless you sir and give you a healthy long life ♥️
I love you my lord GOD Abba father,Jesus and Holyspirit ♥️
one of my favourite videos on youtube. Men who are always BUMPIN EACH OTHER and TALKIN DIRTY are not following the way of the lord.
Such beautiful words
Powerful!
Beautiful
This was beautiful to hear.
I wish my husband did this. For me
Christina N. pray about it gal. If you want some inspiration maybe check out the movie 'war room' it really blessed me. Pray for your husband. Pray for Jesus to change both of you to be better spouses to one another ❤️ I pray God blesses and anoints your marriage sis xxoo
@@katk8285 Oh, I love that movie. It helped me so much.
What about communication with your spouse, I may not be married, but as a college student I am learning that communication is super important in any relationship. And you don't really get what you want through lack of communication... I hope you and your husband have figured it out by know. But I will still be praying for you
@@jonathonnielsen4078 hunny sometimes you can communicate clearly and precisely and speak the same language if a person is determined to misunderstand you because they don't want to fix the situation then there is nothing you can do
@@jonathonnielsen4078 i disagree beliefs are the cause of conflicts communication is subjective my example would be if both fear God and want to abide by his rules to please him and show him love back they will both have a successful marriage they made disagree where the couch goes but it won't matter in the end there communication will become God which is the supreme moral law in this earth
May God bless me with this a Man that will treat me with tenderness and love all our lives. I know submission will be easier for me when he treats me as he ought to. 🙏
@ sipz sipz
We despise those men who are so tender and loving. They are deep turn off.
You don't even know that GOD was the first one to treat us quite harshly by inflicting us more pain .and telling our husband will rule over us.
If we don't get this rough part , we automatically scorn the man and his gentleness and tenderness.
A man must be dominant enough otherwise we won't respect him at all.
I gotta agree with isabelle who is a man by the way. Why you role playing my guy? That tenderness and kindness gets you turned down real fast with women. Just saying.
"TREAT A WOMAN RIGHT SHELL BLOOM LIKE A ROSE...TREAT HER WRONG SHE WILL WILT!!!.."
Watched this shit for 5 minutes and Larry David cracked not one joke. RIPPED OFF.
I love you Mr. John Piper.
I appreciate this talk.
Contrast plus harmony (love) creates an explosion of joy (celebration) whereby the joy created is greater than the sum of the parts. The greater the light and warmth the sparks posses...the greater the explosion of joy (celebration).
Not to be confused with "Art of the Deal". Whereby contrast plus greed (absence of love) makes misery, ugliness and conflict.
