Who are you battling

 The question on my mind this morning is "Who are you battling with in  your home?"

 Good morning and God bless you. 

From time to time there are disagreements, quarrels and so on which are not uncommon to people in a marital relationship. However, when it degenerates into a war because of a third party, you need to be step away and take a conscious look at the whole picture.

Every team thrives on cohesion, so also in marriage you have to be able to speak the same word, be on the same page and desire the same result. Meaning you must be going in the same direction with the hope of arriving at the same destination.

There are times when you have a third party in your marriage; in-laws, another (wo)man, relatives or friends. However, you are not to turn against your team member, spouse. You are to drive out the enemy. Please understand that your parents in law are not your enemies, for the most part they mean well but perhaps overstep their bounds. That is why you need to be on the same page to set appropriate boundaries. Many relationships have imploded because members turned against each other. Any time members of the same group turn against each other, destruction is inevitable.

2 Chronicles 20:23
 "For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another".

So you need to understand each other, have a strategy on how to deal with any third party, do not give up on each other and commit your home unto the Lord. Ensure that Jesus is at the centre of your home. You will see Him defeat every plan of the enemy concerning your home and  peace in Jesus name.

Blessings.
