1 Peter 3:7

7 In the same way, you husbands must give honor to your wives. Treat her with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you are, but she is your equal partner in God's gift of new life. If you don't treat her as you should, your prayers will not be heard. (NLT)

 

As husbands God has a high standard for you to live up to. God wants you to treat your wife as God treats you. Honor your wife, treat her as an equal partner because she is. Be patient, understanding and listen for God has given her to you because he loves you. God created woman from Adam's rib, which is on his side; therefore do not treat your wife as beneath you or above you but she is right alongside you to help on the journey God has for you and her. Treat her as you should, as God intended you to or your prayers will not be heard. Pray with her as a team as one helping the other that God’s blessings will overflow in your life together.
