BEFORE DESTRUCTION A MAN'S HEART IS HAUGHTY, BUT HUMILITY GOES BEFORE HONOR. IF ONE GIVES ANSWER BEFORE HE HEARS, IT IS HIS FOLLY AND SHAME. (PROVERBS 18:12-13 RSV)

Communication in Marriage!

The Need of Communication…  Lives can drift apart.  Problems must be solved.  We are different in how we approach things. Therefore we must pay the closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. (Hebrews 2:1 RSV)

The Commitment to Communicate…  Consider the four stages of decay in a relationship. 1. Mutual needs are met. 2. Mutual needs are ignored by one or both. 3. Mutual needs are demanded to be met by one or both. 4. The relationship ends. Know this, my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger, for the anger of man does not work the righteousness of God. (James 1:19-20 RSV)

The Basics of Communication…  Make Time for Communication. (Eph. 5:15,16)  Learn to Listen. (James 1:19-21)  Practice the Basics of Love. (1 Cor. 13:4-7)  Be a Trustworthy Person. (Prov. 11:12-13)  We must Follow God’s Order of Subjection. (1 Cor. 11:3; Eph. 5:22,23) A man has joy in the answer of his mouth: and a word at the right time, how good it is! (Proverbs 15:23 BBE)

TAKE TIME TOGETHER TALKING, NOT TELLING 5 T’s to Communication:

DO NOTHING FROM SELFISHNESS OR CONCEIT, BUT IN HUMILITY COUNT OTHERS BETTER THAN YOURSELVES. LET EACH OF YOU LOOK NOT ONLY TO HIS OWN INTERESTS, BUT ALSO TO THE INTERESTS OF OTHERS. (PHILIPPIANS 2:3-4 RSV) The Essence of Good Communication is Humility!
