“A foolish son is the ruin of his father, And the contentions of a wife are a continual dripping.” (Proverbs 19:13 NKJV)
He highlights two ways to devastate a home, the ungodly child and the irritating banter of a contentious spouse. A child who walks not in the path of God, exacerbated by unrelenting friction with a spouse, break apart the comfort and peace of a home. It turns a home from a place of refuge to a zone of war. When that happens, the enemy of our soul would come in to join in the fray. And he comes with one thing in mind - to destroy, as what's happening in many homes we hear in the 'fake' media’s favorite doom and gloom news.
As fathers and mothers in our homes, we must stand strong in the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and pray! Never give an inch to the enemy by worrying. Rather, we hold on! We stand on the rock of God's Word! We cry out for His help and rest in our Lord's promise - "I will never leave you nor forsake you." He holds our daughters, our sons, our wives, our husbands in His mighty hands. He will guide and lead us the way to establish our homes, as the Psalmist declared: "Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and He delivered them out of their distresses. He led them forth by the straight and right way, that they might go to a city where they could establish their homes.” (Psalm 107:6, 7 AMP)
And I say, AMEN!
