MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL 22ND APRIL 2021
God’s creative work was not complete until he made woman. He could have made her from dust of the ground as He made man; but He chose to make her from the rib of the man. God illustrated to
us that in marriage, man and woman symbolically become one flesh. The goal for which marriage is created by God Himself should be more than friendship, it should be oneness. The two coming together shall be one flesh (Gen 2:24b).
Couples should have plans for what will make their union successful. These should include the issue of money (finances). Financial problems can affect how you think, act and feel about your partner. It can cause hostility and marital dissatisfaction.
Money is important to the success or failure of any family. Your ability to make and manage money properly will determine how well you live with your spouse. Most times couples fight over the control of money in their marriages. There are so many factors that can lead to financial misunderstanding and your ability to handle them will determine how far you can go in your family.
The first one is secrecy. You must be opened to your spouse about your income. If your spouse is not part of your plan, he or she cannot be part of its execution. Remember you are one and no more two.
Secondly, make a distinction between your needs and wants. Needs in the marriage are essential for survival while wants are numerous. Learn how to place needs above wants.
The third factor that causes financial crisis at home is planless spending. That is, spending on what was not budgeted for. Try as much as possible to have a family budget and spend within your budget.
The other factors that cause crisis in families include: selfishness-mine or yours syndrome, excessive demand from extended family members, laziness and infidelity.
To overcome these crises you must be diligent in your spending, be prudent and be opened to each other. Above all, see God as the Source and Provider of money in your home.
Also, make Jesus the head and the cornerstone of your marriage.
