Unfortunately it’s not only what we allow into our homes, but it’s also what adults are modeling in today’s Christian home. Many allow violent movies and indecent entertainment, telling small children to cover their eyes until the violent or indecent episode is over. I know couples who constantly fight over this issue. The husband wants to see the violent and explicit videos, and the wife wants no part of it.
The effects of tolerating and inviting ungodly stuff into your home may at first seem subtle, as both adults and children start demonstrating a little anger, a little pouting, a little nagging, a little impatience and annoyance, a little rebellion, a little disrespect, and a little lying and testing of the boundaries. But as time goes by, it goes from a little to a lot of episodes of self-will and emotional displays. Where children are involved, many of today’s parents are too busy and harried to deal with the attention and accountability necessary to enforce rules or keep a hand on the wheel. Tough love seems to be a thing of the past in many families of this generation.
One of the greatest outcomes of all this permissiveness is the disintegration of the Christian home. Every day I receive e-mails from spouses who read my books Satan, You Can’t Have My Marriage and Satan, You Can’t Have My Children, and the number one complaint from wives is that their husbands are having affairs or messing with pornography. The main complaint from men is that their wives are controlling and manipulative and won’t submit to even the most basic areas of respect and honor to which the Word of God so wisely instructs a wife to adhere.
Both of these areas, pornography and manipulation, are controlled by evil spirits. Spiritual cleansing and deliverance are absolutely necessary to become free from these demonic spirits that break up homes and churches. Believe it or not, too many Christians are involved in pornography, and many couples manipulate each other unaware of the lurking evil spirits behind their actions. Too many religious women refuse to submit to their husbands, bossing them around and correcting everything they do and say. This too is a root of manipulation and control.

Follow this advice from the Word of God and you will prosper in all you do.

The Lord is saying to us:

“Do your work as unto Me (Ecclesiastes 1:3). What I have done will stand forever (Ecclesiastes 3:14); I have a time for every matter and deed (Ecclesiastes 3:17).

Rest in Me, and cease striving (Ecclesiastes 4:6). Receive My instruction (Ecclesiastes 4:13).

“Enjoy the tasks I have assigned you to, and the work I have given you to do. Know that your work and your call are not in vain, and that I will reward you (Isaiah 49:4). Receive My joy (Ecclesiastes 5:18-20).

“Learn My wisdom; do not dwell on the former things (Isaiah 43:18). I have new things for you now (Isaiah 42:9; 48:6).

I will show you how to proceed at the proper time (Ecclesiastes 8:5).

“I hold you, along with your past, present and future, in My hand (Ecclesiastes 9:1).

Dwell in My joy, and be confident in My acceptance and approval of you (Ecclesiastes 9:7).

Be mighty in word and deed (Ecclesiastes 9:10). You do not know everything your future holds; only I do (Ecclesiastes 10:14).

Sow seeds of faith and righteousness in the fields I direct you to, and trust Me for the results (Ecclesiastes 11:6). You shall reap in due time (Galatians 6:9), for your labor is not in vain in Me.

My words shall not return to Me empty, but will accomplish My purpose” (Isaiah 55:11).

Para poder sobrevivir las crisis cuando tocan a nuestra puerta, es necesario estar preparados de antemano con el corazon y los pensamientos transformados por la Palabra de Dios.  La vida diaria del Cristiano tiene que alinearse con los pensamientos de Dios y la direccion del Espiritu Santo.  No hay otro metodo, sistema, o principios como la vida en el Espiritu Santo.

Si no mantenemos nuestro corazon alimentado espiritualmente, con oracion y Palabra, eventualmente vamos a experimentar lo que Dios llama, el corazon tibio y dividido.  El Cristiano tibio, con un pie en el mundo y otro en su religion, nunca experimentara el exito que Dios ha destinado y desea para Sus hijos.

Los pensamientos son traicioneros. Tenemos que sembrar Palabra en nuestro corazon para lograr tener pensamientos puros y que agradan a Dios.  Del corazon mana la vida. Todo lo que permitimos que entre a nuestro corazon, formara parte de nuestro caracter y personalidad.

Los pensamientos malignos nos afectan a todos.  Es lo que hacemos con esos pensamientos lo que nos afectara.  Por eso la Biblia dice que traigamos todo pensamiento cautivo a la obediencia de Dios tan pronto nos demos de cuenta que es un pensamiento maligno.  Dios nos ha dado la habilidad de conocer las mentiras del enemigo y siempre abre camino para salir de toda tentacion.

Cuida tus pensamientos.  Cuida tu corazon.  Dios quiere bendecirte grandemente y maravillosamente.  Nuestro Padre es un Rey – dueño del oro y la plata. De toda cosa guardada, guarda tu corazon porque de el mana la vida.

The best inheritance that a father [or mother] can leave to a son or daughter is an equal amount of love and discipline.

Most parents have problems with their children’s behavior. In order to have a sound foundation, the child needs to admire his parents and feel admired by them. Children also need to feel that they can trust and be friends with their parents. A healthy relationship forms the child’s character positively.

Children need to feel loved, appreciated, and admired by their parents in an environment that breeds consistent discipline and values. As children grow up, they perceived that their parents are heroes and will always satisfy their needs and protect them. These sentiments create part of their identities.

Discipline is part of  child’s healthy upbringing. Without discipline, there is chaos. However, there is wholesome discipline and there is destructive discipline.  Ask the Holy Spirit for help in this area.

Una mujer inteligente se cuida de no perder de vista al hombre de su vida para asegurarse de que, cuando se disipen las nubes de talco y disminuyan las montanas de pañaes, todavia siga conservando al amante que le dio el regalo de ser madre.

Eso es precisamente lo que toda mujer quisiera desde el fondo de su corazon, verdad que si?  Tu queja y mayor anhelo seria que tu esposo se percate de tu existencia y reconozca tu valor como mujer, y no solamente como la madre de tus hijos y la que cocina y limpia.  ?Por que sera que nos resulta tan dificil pensar que tambien el requiere lo mismo?

El matrimonio esta siendo atacado por todos los medios culturales, humanos, medios sociales, entretenamiento, y aun por la religion.  Debemos de huir del pensamiento de divorcio cuando los problemas nos asechan.  La Palabra de Dios tiene que ser nuestra guia.  Nuestra obediencia y amor incondicional tiene que ser nuestro enfoque.  Dios esta buscando parejas que se atrevan procurar una relacion activa y personal con El.

Si todavia no has leido mi libro, Satanas, Mi Matrimonio No Es Tuyo, te recomiendo que lo leas inmediatamente, pues son consejos y principios que trabajan y que dan entrenamiento para tener un matriminio exitoso y lleno de valores.  Lamentablemente, muchas parejas casadas no han recibido ensenanzas dinamicas de como cuidar y protejer su matrimonio de todos los ataques del enemigo.

Soy una mujer casada por 43 años.  Mi experiencia a traves de los años, los problemas, las enfermedades, y los desafios, los triunfos, y testimonios de cientos de parejas en crisis, me cualifican para escribir y dar consejos que te ayudaran a salvar y mejorar tu matrimonio.

Oracion: Padre Amado, creo que toda persona que sea dirigida a leer este mensaje, es porque Tu deseas que su matrimonio sea bendecido y prospero.  En el nombre de Jesus, pido misericordia por todas las parejas que necesitan intervencion divina.  Padre Santo, abre los ojos espirituales para que puedan ver la mentira de Satanas.  Despierta un hambre en ellos por Tu Palabra.  Sana las heridas y renueva los corazones con Tu Palabra. En en el nombre de Jesucristo, amen.

God instructed His people to keep His Words (teachings, principles, guidelines, instructions, laws, and decrees) and to study, read, and apply them until they penetrate deep into their heart and soul. We must enthrone God in our hearts and homes. We must learn all about the kingdom of heaven and teach these principles to our children. If we don’t, they’ll grow up and become attracted to the kingdom of Satan with all its mysterious trappings and demonic allurements.”

You can strengthen your marriage with frequent endearments, such as compliments, flattery, affection, and sweet talk.

Saying “I love you” in our relationship is spontaneous, and many times deliberate and purposeful. The more you say something, the more you believe it. We both had to learn and practice this habit. We didn’t learn this at a young age when life was racing by with dysfunction, too many demanding siblings, and exhausted parents. Experiencing abuse of any kind can also inhibit a person from spontaneously saying, “I love you dearly, and can I care about you.”

Many times my husband will be engrossed in work, tired, and a little anxious. I’ll sneak up to him purposefully, give him a kiss on his forehead, and say, “I love you. Thank you for working so hard. Can I help you or get you some coffee?” I notice how during these times, he exhales and calms down.

An endearment is an act of affection, a compliment, a kind and loving word, a flattery. Make it a practice in your marital relationship. It will smooth out a lot of rough edges. It will cause tenderness to surface.
