“Obey” was written in big letters on the front of the garment. When I started a conversation with the owner of the shirt and said something like, “I like the message on your shirt”, he replied, “Obey your wife, or …”

The Bible says to obey the Lord!

There is a whole chapter in the Old Testament, that teaches that those who are obedient are blessed and that those who are disobedient are cursed. Please read Deuteronomy chapter 28 from verse 1 to verse 68.  I think I will read that chapter again soon.

Have you ever asked yourself what the  Lord asks of your for your own good?

He asks of us

1. to fear him, 2. to walk in all his ways, 3. to love him, 4. to serve him, and 5. to obey him.

And remember that it is for your own good! (Deuteronomy 10:13)

But the Bible says this about the relationship between husband and wife:

1.  Husbands are admonished to love their wives. (Ephesians 5:25)

2. Husbands must be considerate as they live with their wives. (First Peter 3:7)

3.  Husbands must treat their wives with respect. ( First Peter 3:7)
