(1) Don’t shout at your wife when you are talking, it will really hurt her.
(2) Do not speak evil of her to anyone, your wife will become who you call her.
(3) Do not share her love or affection with another woman illegally, it’s called adultery.
(4) Never compare your wife to another woman, if the other woman was good for you, God would have given her to you
(5) Be gentle and accommodating, she has sacrificed so much to be with you. It hurts her deeply when you are harsh and irritating, be tender.
(6) Hide nothing from her, you are now one and she’s your help mate. Let there be no secret you are keeping from her.
(7) Do not make negative comments about her body, she risked her life and beauty to carry your babies. She is a living soul not just flesh and blood.
(8) Do not let her body determine her worth, cherish and appreciate her, even till old age.
(9) Never shout at her in the public and private, if you have an issue to sort with her, do it in the privacy of your room.
(10) Thank and appreciate her for taking good care you, kids and the house. It is a great sacrifice she is making.
(11) All women cannot cook the same way: appreciate your wife’s food, it is not easy to cook three meals a day, 365 days a year for several years.
(12) Never place your siblings before her, she is your wife. She is one with you, she must come before your family.
(13) Invest seriously in her spiritual growth. Buy books, tapes, and any materials that will edify her and strengthen her walk with God. That’s the best thing you can do for her.
(14) Spend time with her to study word of God and pray with her.
(15) Make time to play with her and enjoy her company, remember when you are dead, she’s gonna be by your grave but your friends may be too busy to attend to many things.
(16) Never use money to manipulate or control her. All your money belongs to her also, she is a joint heir with you.
(17) Do not expose her weakness, you will be exposing yourself too, be a shield around her, allow her to have her covering or shelter in you.
(18) Honour her parents and be kind to her siblings.
(19) Never cease to tell her how much you love her all the days of her life. Women are never tried of hearing. I LOVE YOU. When do you say it last to your wife?
May God help us to build our marriage, may experience a desirable condition in our marriage, through our marriage may our house become a home.
