3 SIMPLE THINGS EVERY MAN CAN DO TO WIN HIS WOMAN'S HEART AGAIN!

I will start with a disclaimer and say that this may not apply to everyone.  However, for those that will receive this tidbit of wisdom I believe there is still hope for you to “WIN YOUR WOMAN’S HEART AGAIN.”  Do you remember when you first met?  Do you remember how fun and exciting those times were?  Now ask yourself why.  The truth is as your relationship grows things will change as far as your relationship but EVERYTHING DOESN’T HAVE TO CHANGE.  You can still experience many of those same feelings you had in the beginning of your relationship.   

Here are 3 quick things to help you WIN YOUR WOMAN’S HEART AGAIN.

11-      DO MORE! AND STOP POINTING FINGERS AT WHAT SHE DOESN’T DO-   Here is something that is pretty consistent.  I believe most men play the victim role when they feel they are not getting what they “deserve.”  Most men say well “she doesn’t do this, and she’s not that.” Well newsflash, YOU ARE NOT A LOT OF THINGS YOURSELF!  The truth is neither of you will meet all of the other persons expectations.  However, I’ve learned that men can’t play the victim and lead.  SUCK IT UP. If you want a better response put out more effort and take the initiative.  YOU COOK. YOU CLEAN. YOU PICK UP THE KIDS FROM DAYCARE.  Yeah you might have a lot on your plate but so does she.  As soon as you take accountability and do what’s in your power you will see her slowly open up to you more and you will get more of the response you are looking for.

2 2-     STOP SAYING NEGATIVE THINGS- There is an old saying that says “you catch more bees with honey.”  I am not sure if that is actually true but I do know that most men say negative things to their lady and expect a positive response.  THIS COULD NOT BE MORE WRONG.  She will probably be less likely to show you the kind of response you want from her if you are spouting harmful words.  If you want your lady to be more open to you SHUT UP AND THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK. Stop saying things that are negative and mean.  Now , you may think these things from time to time but here is what I have learned.  Most negative things are said as a reaction to something that you may feel in a moment.  There is a difference between a “response” and a “reaction.” A reaction is something that happens out of your feelings.  A response is something that comes after thought and careful consideration.  If you want to win the heart of your lady start “responding” more and “reacting” less.  Ask God for wisdom on how you can respond with words that will be gentle yet clear about what you desire.

3 3-  BE THE MAN. I may be old fashioned but I still believe the man is the HEAD.  This doesn’t mean the man is the boss.  This means the man is the LEADER.  If you want to be the leader that means you must embrace what comes with leadership.  Leadership is sacrifice. Leadership is inconvenient. Leadership means you have to constantly be thinking about everything in your care. Leadership is a greater form of service in disguise.  I believe every woman no matter how strong she is wants to count on her man to LEAD.  START LEADING!  You put out a vision for the house. You put together a plan for you finances.  You take the initiative in organizing the way your lives should go. You become more strategic about everything under your care. Now of course you want to collaborate with your lady in all of these areas.  BUT JUST BE THE MAN.

I pray this is helpful and to the point. Let’s pray. Lord God help us be better men. Help us to lead and love as you have loved us. In the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen.

3 REASONS TO PRAY FOR A CHURCH PLANT!

Church planting is a joy and a serious and strenuous task all at the same time. New churches have an opportunity to build something that will bless many!

   

As I take the time to think about what truly is meant by the great commission "to go and make disciples",  I thought of three reasons why you should pray for new churches to grow and impact the lives of their communities.

 

1)  New Churches Create Opportunities For Evangelism -When a new church is planted in a community she is able to reach new people.  

A church plant helps to attract individuals that may not have a church home, have experienced church "burnout" or church hurt, and inspire new opportunities to evangelize and disciple new believers!  New churches have an evangelistic mindset.   New churches are focused on who they can reach that may not be currently connected to a church home and sharing the love of Jesus with them.

 

2) New Churches Can Create A New Culture For Worship - 

One of the challenges of "established 

"churches is they can fall into a "dry" routine of worship.

 
 

When you do the same thing the same way for years there is a tendency to not be open to God moving in a new way that can bless people through a fresh impartation of God's Spirit.  New Churches have an opportunity to create a new culture for Worship that may be different from traditional settings.  New churches are open to God moving an in a new way to bless God's people in a new way.

 

3) New Churches Resemble The Closest Thing To The First Century Church The first century church was a radical group. They were ready to conquer new territory and spread the name of Jesus.  They also were a community focused on making a true impact! They were not focused on offerings or buildings, but primarily evangelism, signs and wonders, sharing all they had with each other and spreading the name of Jesus.  

This was the first century church and the church must always remember our foundation to remember our objective.

 

Today I'd like you to pray for Faith Forward Church and all of the new churches in the world.  Pray that God continue to bless them to multiply and make disciples!
