Enemies of happy home
69
A marriage is either a success or a failure because of the ingredients that are present or lacking in it. Your home is either a little heaven on earth or an abode of diabolical spirits. A good marriage is an outcome of prayer, diligence and hard work. In the same vein, a bad marriage is caused by prayerlessness and unhealthy attitudes. It takes a lot of effort to experience success and happiness in marriage. The step that one should take is to deal with hindrances to success in marriage. If you really want to enjoy your marriage, you must deliberately and painstakingly deal with the enemies of a happy home.
What are the enemies of a happy of happy home?
Selfishness or self-centeredness is one of the enemies a happy home. It is wrong and unscriptural to continue to think selfish about ourselves after we have got married. A married man or married woman who always talks about “my car, my books, my money and my house” does not know what a true Christian marriage is all about. Also, husband or wives who are always thinking about what they can get out of marriage rather than think of what they can contribute in other to make their marriage successful need to know that selfishness hinders the progress of a family. A man or a woman who is always eager to seize opportunities and grab advantages but is never willing to make sacrifices is paving way for the collapse of his or her home.
Immorality
Another enemy of a happy home in this modern world of ours is impurity or unfaithfulness. Many a happy home has been wrecked by immortality and sin. Ours is a permissive world by immortality and sin. Ours is a permissive world but we have also reaped the fruits of disobedience. Sexual promiscuity and unfaithfulness have ruined many lives and homes. Broken homes, incurable and terminal diseases like AIDS, herpes, and other venereal disease have been suffered by people as a result of increase in act of morality.
I know that many people make light of immorality; but, when you think about the consequence of being licentious, you will discovered that it is not so funny. Many people have lost their peace, their dignity and their lives by succumbing to societal pressures. If you think about the effect of impurity of your spouse , your family and your children you will no longer see immorality as a harmless act.
Things have gone so bad that in this generation the moral fiber of society is decaying at a very fast pace. A mother once fiber of society is decaying at a very fast pace. A mother once called her fourteen years old daughter and told her “My daughter, you are grown up I need to talk to you about men”. The daughter replied “Mummy what do you want to know about men? I van educate you”. You can imagine what it means for a fourteen year old girl to vouchsafe that she can tell her mother all that she needs to know about men. The situation leaves much to do desire it is an indication that morality is at its lowest ebb.
Absence of commitment
Another thing that has hindered many marriages have not been fulfilled because the pressure are not committed to their marriages. Lack of commitment as well as half hearted commitment is enemies of marriage. if you want your marriage to be healthy , happy and stable, there must be commitment to keep your marriage as you keep you life. Your marriage is as precious as your life. If your approach to marriage is careless and haphazard, it is an indication that you are not taking marriage as serious as you ought to.

Excellent hub! Very informative. I agree with you 100% ! I find it totally appalling that these young children today know more about sex that the average adult. Children treat "dating" or "going steady" as an extracurricular activity. Dating, or courting, is supposed to begin with the intention of finding a spouse. It's not to be intended for recreation.
