A husband must also protect his wife from himself, from his anger, his irritation, from rage, from verbal or physical assault on his wife. ectr
Blessed are the women who find a man worth submitting to, great trust is needed.
@ Real Comms
Except that it is the woman who is made FOR the man . Not the reverse.
So , focusing like crazy on the so called husband's role and his 100 000 000 duties is what has uttelry screwed marriage in the West , especially among Christians.
Western Christianity has been hijacked by feminism and that awful female self entitlement for decades and is just dying slowly because of it.
Prayer for my husband to deeply understand this to the full extent needed to build our home with Jesus as our foundation

Hopefully this helps y'all.... When I have issues with my wife in any area I go in private and ask Jesus how I can better love my wife in actions & words. My focus is not to fix her but my focus is for me to become more like Jesus would have me be and by doing that I fully give God permission to work on her. I don't know anyone's personal situation so I can't judge what a person should or shouldn't do in these situations but I can say that by focusing on ourselves with Jesus we aren't bothered anymore by others. He changes us so that the situations don't change us. When we move then it's because He moved us and not our problems or situations we face. Some things my wife does might bother me but because of the Holy Spirit I realize that if I lean more and more into Jesus then those things bother me less and less. Jesus loves us even when we don't love Him. He treats us good even when we don't treat Him good therefore we should lean on Jesus to be able to do the same for our wives and for women their husbands.
Beautiful words brother @@willhall7777
Amen
Great video. Actually he raised 5 points: lead sacrificially, protect, lead spiritually, provide, prioritize his wife.
@ Edward Kwok
In our Brave dacying Feminist New World , men have 100 000 duties and zero rights and women have 100 000 rights and zero duties .
The Bible portrays women as made FOR the man , submitting to his wishes and adapting to him in every way.
We are light years away from the Bible but it's ok . We don't do things God's way anymore and we wonder why marriage fail.
Marriages were strong when WOMEN were taught their duties and were firmly rebuked for not being dutiful wives.
Now that the emphasis is put on men , it is a DISASTER .
Mark,pliz pray for me for a godly man,m heartbroken right now
I just prayed for you Chongpy Misao
Thank q
Red proverbs will give you Winsdom and gud understanding
Chongpy Misao psalm 128 and up
Hello Chongpy, in this moment of grace/a blessing in disguise, may you seek God's Word for God to reveal his perfect will and perfect timing with you! In this time of pain, may you find comfort and perfect peace through God. May you open your heart, your ears to hear God when he is speaking to you or giving you conviction/revelation. May you enjoy your days through remembrance God's love for you on a daily basis, and how he died for you, and your worth and value to God. You are love and worthy in the sight of God. May the Lord bless you with humbleness and obedience. Take care. God knows exactly what he is doing. Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and not lean on your own understanding. Submit all your ways, and He will direct your paths". God speed 💐♥️🙏🏽
Its important to emphasize he must seek what is best by asking her thoughts as well.
I guess Christ must also thrive to please his church and ONLY IF the church is pleased enough will she accept to obey Him ....
I’m separated...22 days so far. Haven’t been loving like I should be or a leader like I should be. Ephesians 5(for husbands) is, and has been, my goal to get my wife and family back. Thanks for what you do!
Did you get your family back? Hope you did. God bless
I didnt realise this u tube was so long ago-so I only just read your comment, mate you are already half way to being a better husband and man, if you can openly, bravely and maturely admit to your mistakes. God Bless you and if you and your wife are meant to reunite, God Bless your marriage.
Amen! Let her come back!
I hope it worked
No. We got back together after the separation but just recently finalized our divorced. I had let things get so far out of whack with my wife and teen kids(step kids) before I responded that we couldn’t live like this any longer. I made a lot of mistakes leading up to this. Please pray for me. Pray God heals me, leads me, and shows me His will for my future.
Thanks Mark.
This is really hard scripture for men. Hence why I feel so few men are here commenting. Any man gleefully who looks forward to his role as husband, without some fear and trembling is a good indicator he might not fully understand what is being asked of him.
He does not understand he is accountable to the Lord on how he serves or fails to serve his wife.
Again thanks for preaching the hard stuff.
My pleasure
The problem is when he fails she pays a high price .
Totally true!
@ Jamal Repose
I guess Christ serves the church too and in in submission to her .
What a blaspheme !
@@framboise595 what??? 🤦🏻♀️I don’t think you understood it.
I pray that my husband will study this and get it before its too late 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I crying because my husband is Christian but he never treat me this way 😢😢😢😢😢
Me too.
So bless to hear this , this where my weakness is 🙏🏼
Hi Mark Ballenger (presenter of this u tube?) this was such a good, clear, realistic education. I had tears in my heart, as what you spoke touched me, to be true. I have emailed this u tube to my Fiance as we are still working on our relationship issues, in preparation for marriage. Thank you and God Bless you and your Family.
I really needed this. Thank you for explaining this so simply. God bless you
I understood it but was not applying it in my life but God and Jesus has given me the strength to realize it before it was too late Amen
Thank you. Very well said in a short video.
Well said my husband and me listen to you
I was very happy of the way you explained all the main points
God bless you thank you
Very good explanation Mark. Thanks
Thank you for this message
I want my husband to lead. I need him to be the leader God meant for him to be. 😘😎 I’ll be happy to be the submissive and supportive wife. This does not mean I have no say so in our relationship. We are ONE and equal. I love how God design women and men in their own unique way! 😁
Man and woman are everything but equal.
Stop spewing the lie churchianity has been taught for decades.
Men and women are equal in the eyes of God...
@@smolrat159
No they're not . They have never been. God made Adam first and Eve second.
The man is the image and glory of God but the woman is the glory of man . The woman is NOT the glory of God , so she is not "equal" in his eyes.
Man have something more , the direct image of God printed in Adam's DNA.
The feminist lie of equality has devastated the Western church and enabled women to take over.
Good teaching. Ty so much. God bless you
Good stuff sir! Thank you
Thankyou so much for this!
Thanks 🙏 very well said
God bless you
Very edifying 😍
Awesome!
Awesome!
I like to see all of your positive feedback.

Please continue making your content it's really good I really enjoyed it God bless you!!! 🙏🙏😇😇😇
In response to such a misunderstood topic this is an excellent excellent video. Thank you for this clarity, i shall definitely share this.
I'm so glad you found it helpful!
I should be studying this. Thanks for the info
👍
Thank you so much
This is so helpful 🙏🏽
I receive this Word Amen
Perfectly said my brother
Amen When a Husband loves his wife in this way then it’s easier for the wife to submit but not in the way Husband says “submit “ when a women feels loved them she will be submissive.
Its a mutual thing each side must give 100 percent or it wont work because love isnt one making 1 happy its about both being happy together babe love ya and u have my heart anyway
@@JesusIsLord2478 I’m sorry, you made me laugh at the last two words. Because you’re right and unfortunately I’m all too familiar with those words. This is my struggle in my 25 years of marriage, I know I do not hold a special place in my husband’s heart. His heart is good to others but not to me 💔
@@JesusIsLord2478 thank you for responding to me. I take strength from you.
@ Brandi Chavezp
He sall rule over you stated by THE LORD himself in Genesis 3:16
As if the Lord did not how manipulative and evil women could be !
The wife is told to submit EVEN IF the husband does not obey the Word 1 Peter 3, so what you say is pure evil.
All those uninspired preachings tailored to a powerful demonic spirit of feminism have paved the way for what Isaiah 3:12 says :
O my people children are their oppressors and women rule over them
Women and children , the tyranny of the weaker is like God's judgement upon us.
@@bsanchez0626
It's not a mutual thing. The woman was made for the man. Not the man for the woman.
And turning something as serious as marriage into some silly love story is suicidal.
If we did not care so much about what females think , feel , as changing as the moon as they are , marriage would be strong.
NOTHING is more male-centric than the Bible. It struck me when I started to read it how it makes it all about God first and then about the man .
This was so well explained and touched on the nuance of the realities and practicalities of everyday life. When speaking about provisions I was thinking about ways you can prepare and adjust through financial adversity like insurance and savings. Great food for thought with some good scripture backing !
Let me just say I really appreciate your videos! I’m so glad I found your channel. You give some great Bible-based advice and have a lot of wisdom. God bless your ministry.
Amen Victoria Jones, so glad you found this channel as well!
Beautifully explained. ..
So glad this was helpful to you :)
A very good video. Very well said. Sooooo true.
Amen Corina Weber, glad it was beneficial:)
Great video brother GOD BLESS YOU
Amen, well explained and I recommend should watch this video.
Good message
Mark, Ephesians 5:22-33, is pretty clear and you explained it with excellent examples. Now, I've observed how the word "submit" makes many modern women, misguided by extreme feminism, have jaw clenching experiences decorated with major frowns! From one girl to many out there, let me say this...Ladies, it's not that serious! Instinctively, as women, we want our man to be to be the head of the household-and I'm not talking about a paycheck (in today's expensive world, if both can contribute in the household which allows for a balanced interaction within the relationship, then Amen!). I am referring to the initiative that is within the man of wanting to protect us and care for us as their woman...we want that. Some may say "Oh, I don't need a man like that", but when reality hits, they think opposite. I think we forget that submitting to your husband is a voluntary act...it's not slavery. It's when the woman says to her husband, "I trust you". The essence of this is remembering that we as women have to be careful who we choose to submit to. If I am to submit to another human being, i.e. man, then I need to make sure he is submitting to someone who is higher than him...I need to make sure he is submitting to my Father/Abba..God Almighty(this is where the equally yoked command is useful guys and gals!). I mean, think about, why would I want to play the role of the man and the woman? It's a lot to handle! Just one verse to keep in mind when applying Ephesians 5:22-33, in my opinion, would be I Corinthians 13:4-8, this goes for both man and woman.
Thanks for sharing Rose!
ApplyGodsWord.com/Mark Ballenger Thank you for your videos Mark...God bless!
Rose Morales Well said!!! 👍👍
Rose you should do some RUclips videos :) well wrote out.
yes yes yes yes yes yes. well said. im a guy. are jobs is not to boss our wifes around. the relationship is a team work thing. we need each other. i cant be the head without her. other then myself there is know one to protect. women are not objects at all as guys instead of looking at them sexually we should see the personality of her. guys play a very important roll here to. im also sick of feminist put guys down to. in the relationship we nees each other bottom line because jesus said so
You are absolutely right. I am a little more knowledgeable in the word than my husband is. We were just having a conversation about this very thing.
Thanks Brother I felt that because I needed this right now and No Surprise. 😎👍 Just In Time 🙏💞GOD IS GREAT ‼️‼️
Really nice interpretation the passage..I like it
I'm glad you like it!
WONDERFUL!! Thank you! Please discuss 2nd marriages, ex-wives interfering, step-kids, etc.
Good advice!
Thank you shirt and sweet 🧁.God bless you.
Your on point
This is very important video.Married 30 years now.My husband would talk to two of his sisters five to six times a week.He does not bind emotionally with his girls His priorities are mixed up.He is a Christian wants to go into ministry.His actions leave me feeling insecure and the girls want to pull away.I want my marriage.Please prayer for us.I want him to be that husband that God talks about.
🙏 My advice is that you search for Christians in your area who AGREE with this video and other videos of f.ex. John MacArthur, Paul Washer, Voddie Baucham, etc. on Biblical Marriage. Then arrange to meet in each others homes and watch the videos and pray for spouses who disobey God ✝️🙏 It is a tremendous support....and your husband will hopefully eventually join the group ✝️
This helped me a lot.
This is awesome advice!!!!
So glad it was helpful!
Wonderful Analogy When The Husband Protects his Wife Awesome Awesome Awesome God
This video was very informative. I thank God for showing it to me. Thank you for not sharing opnions but a biblical perspective
Great video, thank you for sharing your point of view on this topic. Working on becoming a better husband and this is very helpful. God bless you brother
That’s the truth 🙏🏾
In relation to my comment on your other video mentioning the AGW university, this is one thing I would be looking for.
Can you make a part two to this video with LOTS of examples for everyday life between a man and wife?
Excellent Godly advice
thank u sir
Mark, you always give such great information based on God's Word and I appreciate your ministry! One thing I'd suggest is using a team of supporters to help you deliver the content in the way you intend. What I mean is monitoring your tone of voice while speaking. It can come across as abrasive and off-putting. I don't believe you intend to come across that way, so maybe you can work with someone with advanced experience in public speaking who can give you tips on how to moderate that. It can be very distracting and I think you'd get even more views without it. Thanks again for your ministry! :)
This requires great sacrifice on the part of the husband and great trust on the part of the wife and both husband and wife must be motivated by the Love of Christ. Thank you Mark!
@ Alicia Shanks
This is nothing but feminist manure wrapped in a Christian veneer.
He preaches as if the man was made for the woman , in another words as if Christ was made for the church !!!
Mark, I really appreciate your time and videos that you create. Thank you so much. This is a great learning experience!!!!!
You are welcome James Gilliam, God bless :)
Wow this is my First SB....
Very nice 96
You did a great job breaking this subject down, explaining it the way our Lord means it through his word. Than you!
You are very welcome Josette King :)
I pray that God will choose a man for me that is able to love, lead, provide, prioritize and protect! I probably won't be married for at least 7 ish years unless if I marry younger than 22, but this is good to know thank you Mark!
I feel like in some ways based off of what you said I can be a protector because "if it is a problem with you, it is also a problem with me" haha! I also pray that I will be the wife and Proverbs 31 woman that God wants me to be! 🙏
What about sex ? What do we get married for according to the Bible ? Not to what churchianity garbage preaches.
Dear Beanie-bae: YOU choose which Man to mary. Make SURE you are choosing a Man that OBEYS the word of God. Watch CLOSELY if he OBEYS the Word of God. Do not marry before you are absolutey SURE of that:

@ Dian Caye
God did not make the man for the woman but the woman for the man.
Feminist preachers in Christian guise just do it the Luciferian way : they invert the male/female poles.
I’m muslim and we have the same views of a husband and wife. Sadly people really spread lies and misunderstand it. God bless
Thank you for saying this. Yes, it is true. Too many lies being told about different religions & cultures. I have many Muslim friends & have been to Turkey twice...the values are the same
This was the best explanation that I've heard of what a Christian husband should be like. Thanks alot.
Pls pray for me. I met my bf in a car accident and he has not talked to me in almost 2 months. Not even for my birthday. He just blocked me from his life. I think or thought he was the one. Pls pray that I find a good husband.
Just prayed for you
Amazing break down! Well done! May God Bless You and your Family.
I believe that a good Christian husband would treat his wife as his equal and a sort of 'team mate' in the sense that they share responsibilities and the like. I don't know what do you think Mr. Ballenger?
Equal, absolutely. Teammate, absolutely. Exactly the same role, no. Both a husband and wife reflect the glory of God but do so by fulfilling different roles in the marriage. Ephesians 5:22-33 is a good place to read about this :)
thank you sir☺
Amen!!!
I’ve been telling my husband this for years
@ THEY THINK I DONT KNOW
So you have another evidence that those modern preachers tailor their non unspired teachings to what females want .
It is sickening.
I’m already a Great Christian Husband. Thank you for your insight.
God bless you brother we need more Christian husbands like you. Blessings
@ Joe Brown
What is a "greta Christian husband" ? An emasculated simp ruled voer by his wife ?
He shall rule over you Genesis 3:16 has become She shall rule over him
The post modern church is in bed with the wicked feminist world and its emasculating lies.
Been preaching the same for years, but dang it takes a whole new weight living it. I am currently 2 months away from marriage myself and it is hard in a fallen world. Sanctification is difficult, but 1000000% worth it. Just learning how to live Christ's love in my (almost) marriage each day, growing where I falter.
Absolutely brilliant!
Well done once again Mark! I feel like your channel is better honestly preparing me to become a Godly husband some day. Thank you!
Thank you my brother for sharing. The problem is exactly what you said most of the time and that is to many believers "listening" to the world's views and ideas first over the Bible and what God/Jesus said. In addition, it is "not" just for a husband and wife to read in the bible the various scriptures that pertain to their role and responsibilities, but to understand from "Jesus's perspective" WHY he is telling the husband and wife they have to do these things. I can read something and say I understand it and do it based on my understanding, but it's another thing to understand WHY I'm really doing it.
Thanks Mark. This is incredible content.
I look forward to meeting you and your family in Glory. You have no idea how much you and your wife have been a tremendous blessing to me. I'm 50 and a divorceé. My ex husband died almost 3 years ago. This video truly touched me. I truly enjoy your channel and the content I get from you and the ones you do with your beautiful bride, resonate how one can be blessed richly with a marriage centered in Christ.
Blessings to you all from Vancouver Island☺️🙏🏿
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
My wife doesn't care if I do all this she still is quarrelsome...I dont even argue and now im not being supportive...I try to be calm and get space when needed and she follows me to argue..I am in a hotel rn and she still keeps calling me to tell me she wants to let me know everything bad I've done in the past...things like not taking the dog out when I said I would 3 years ago...I tell her I hear it but what is the point of trying to make me feel bad..she says she just wants to let me know...but she already has brought the same issues up from 3 years ago and I don't even do anything similar...its so hard to talk because she twist my words...I try to text so she can't twist my words and she says I'm treating her like a child by trying to text instead of argue when she is emotional...idk what to do im praying for supernatural help..I can't do it on my own understanding
@ Odin the Giant
This is what men reap for listening to such emasculating sermons and not ruling over their wives anymore.
Their wives rule over them.
Bitterer than death.
@@framboise595 well im getting a divorce im repenting for my sins of lust and im about to be on fire for God..our marriage was an abomination!
@@OdinTheGiant
Sins of lust ? Marriage is precisely THE remedy for sexual needs providing MEN rule in and out of the bedroom. 1 Corinthians 7:4/5
When men don't rule , the marriage gets sexless , symbolically it has no phallic power anymore.
Brave New World of Satanic Emasculation where sex is now everywhere but in marriage because men are now to weak to subdue their own wives to the duty of sex.
Sure marriages run by females are an abomination to the Lord but I believe all this happens because MEN have listened to women and wives instead of the Lord and have lost God's MANLY vision of sex.
I wish this guy was friends with my husband, he needs this type of leadership in his life 😞
Even though I shared this with him I can’t say he will actually view it, just implementing one of these things would make our life so much better
Very good, young people dating should start moving toward this if interested in marriage in the future
God bless!
I bind to hell every lack of love of my god-ordained spouse for me while binding my god-ordained spouse knowing and act upon leading me the right way while binding to hell every lack of godly leadership by my god-ordained spouse, binding to hell every unequal yoke and common share with any man lacking love for me and any man not showing godly leadership towards me, in accordance with this word and ephesians 5:22-33, mark 10:42-45, 2 corinthians 6:14-18 in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah ❤!
He looks like Gylenhal :-)
I have been studying servant leadership by Robert Greenleaf and it is a good description of what you were talking about. I am a single mother and I am trusting the Lord to lead us and protect us. There are a lot of wolves out there, pray for us. God has miraculously provided everything that we need since I am alone. I am blessed by your videos. I dont know if God has a husband for me, pray for His will in my life. God bless You!!!
You should also look up Sumner Wemp. His website has Godly wisdom for marriage.
My partner who is 44 has been in and out of work since we met, he’s always on his phone playing games and I feel there is little time for me to the point he has told me to wait for a hug so he can finish what he’s doing on his phone. I have had to take time off work to clean the house as he doesn’t do it. His money is his and he doesn’t contribute to the bills as much as I do then he complains that he doesn’t feel the house is his as well. I am not religious but I am spiritual but he is, when he isn’t on his phone playing games he is reading the Bible. He throws tantrums when he has to feed the dogs and I’m feeling used and not loved at all! I looked this up in hope to find something to shake him out of his crap! I do love him but am wondering why I should stay with someone who won’t step up to be in a partnership and not a dependent. I am slowly being dissolved into someone I dislike, unhappy and not happy to see him anymore! please help!
I love it. As a Christian man,a child of God through Christ,i feel it in my spirit. To be a husband is to be a servant aka to serve. Now even doe this video is to teach the husband, please take note that in Ephesians 5:22-23 it says wives submit to your own husband AS TO THE LORD, FOR THE HUSBAND IF THE HEAD OF THE WIFE EVEN AS CHRIST ID THE HEAD OF THE CHURCH💯 ave you have pastors that preach on this part of a woman part or being a Christian wife🙏🏽 take this video to heart women/man, but also look at videos about what a woman position is as a wife. God bless in a Jesus name, Amen
Excellent video! Thank you, I didn't fully understand how a man loves his wife. Mind changing 🙂 I think Jesus for you and for his word!
Hi Mark, Thank you for this video!! Another piece to our marriage puzzle has been revealed thru your words and earnest attitude - servant leadership. I marvel again, at how the Lord reveals answers in just the right way and timing....... My husband and I are trying to sortout our perspectives of each other's actions, and just last night, thru finding & watching your video, I have finally recognized(!) his leadership has always existed thru his faithful provisions for our family - THAT is very much servant-hood, and I haven't for some reasons equated leadership with breadwinner. I loved the rest of what you said too, and will be further studying it and also sharing this all with my husband, to let him know that I've realized this new perspective!!! SO thanks for your willingness and perseverance in sharing & explaining more to me about the Lord's wisdom in Ephesians 5 & 6. I'm very excited & hopeful to renew my thoughts and actions with these truths, and enjoy more JOY more endurantly with my sweet, powerful, loving husband !!!
Where has wifely submission gone ?
Winger is just another feminist in Christian guise.
Where has the BIBLICAL TRUTH that the woman was made for the man and not the man for the woman gone ?
I know I will find my way as a husband trew Jesus my king I love my wife so very much ty u so much for this speech
🙏

Any advice on some of us who are divorced?
I need to do a video on that, its on my list
I just wrote some thoughts about this so I will post an article this week on my website. The video will take some time but the article will be soon :)
ApplyGodsWord.com/Mark Ballenger - Sounds good! Thank you for taking the time to do that! I think it would greatly benefit many people to hear your thoughts on this topic as well as what you do best, which is apply gods word!! Looking forward to it :)
I just don’t see how a man can be with a woman that knows more, knows how to lead better, has more wisdom,etc. It puts the man under I fee like. Honestly i love this woman but she is wiser, and knows more. I feel so under qualified.
In God’s Word, it never mentions anything about the husband having to be qualified for the role. He is called to it and equipped for it through his faith in Christ. She may be wiser but she may want a man who is willing to make the tough calls and take responsibility for the well-being of the household. A leader isn’t someone who is most qualified in all or even most areas. Even if she makes more, is she a good steward of that resource? Would she find it admirable to find that in a man who can teach her and lead her to be even better in all these different areas. If in danger, will you put yourself in between her and whatever may hurt her? Will you protect her heart and prioritizes her needs? Then there is no reason to feel under qualified. It’s easy to focus on our shortcomings but with further reflection and trust in the roles God gave us as men and women, we can see the values we bring to the relationship.
Come on Future (husband) man of God
When a wife has to take a secular job, then it is a high risk of being in comparison with the husband, but ought to be careful to use it wise in one accord. Preferably, the man should sustain his wife and family so she can be able to take care of the great responsability of raising kids in the fear of the Lord, and also keeping the house for the family.
