By the use of the word spouse rather than wife, it means the situation could be from any of the two directions. Nagging and stubborn may be a relative term, in your own opinion, you think, this person is nagging and stubborn, some other person may not really consider him or her that way. But that is your own assessment because, you know, it is a relative term.
Nevertheless, when you say you have a spouse that is nagging, is stubborn, is this and that. We wonder how you yourself are. That is the first question. But let me say this, there is something about a Christian home. There is a manual in the bible in Ephesians five, from about verse twenty two or twenty-three to the end of that particular chapter. I call it the marriage manual in the bible. When you buy some home equipment, you buy a T.V set, a video player, a DVD player or whatever in the home. There always will accompany them a manual, a little booklet that gives you an idea of how to handle, how to use it. Now as long as you use that thing according to the manual, it should function properly. It is when something goes wrong and you did not use it according to that manual, it begins to go out of order.
Now what leads to all these problems is that people fail to follow the marriage manual that God has given. For you as a husband, even when your wife is not following that manual and you are following that manual prayerfully, God will work upon your behalf to begin to change the lady. The same thing goes the other way. That is what is happening there. But when you say you have a stubborn and a nagging spouse in particular, how do you deal with that person. Show that person uncommon love, show that person unusual love. Provoke that person to love. Let the person know that in spite of all these things you are doing, I would remain true to the word of God. I would remain true to what God has asked me to be, because you see indeed, that is the way God relates to us. Many times we children of God, we are stubborn and we are nagging. We say all kinds of things to God, we are stubborn but we do not really … but God continues to love us still. And he continues to show us, that this is what love is all about. God has always challenged me with something and I am challenging you with the same thing tonite. You be towards your spouse, the way God is to you. And you are going to see a difference, I promise you.
