How The Honeymoon Phase Will Last Forever?

honeymoon phase will last forever

We have always been taught that every romantic relationship goes through the honeymoon phase but then it ends and you have to move on?to something boring. We want to give you some steps to help you never get to the boring. Here's how the honeymoon phase will last forever!

In this podcast, Jon and Jess explore the question – does the honeymoon phase have to end?

To answer this age-old question, they go to the heart of the matter, fear vs. love.

Everything we do is either based on fear or love.

There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.

I John 4:18

The Power of Love In Relationship

Fear stops us and shuts us down. It takes away our creativity and joy. Fear causes us to answer sharply and makes us feel like we have to constantly look over our shoulder.

Love frees and empowers us. It makes us creative and joyful. Love gives us patience for our partners so we can respect and cherish them. So if we do things in love, we have an exponentially greater chance that the honeymoon will last forever.

When an issue arises in our relationship, it's as if a mirror is put up in front of our faces to show us that there is something to do with us that we need to take care of.

When we pay attention to these, we are able to deal with the cause and allow healing to enter in. After a while, the baggage drops off of us and walls against our partners come down.

As a result, we can get back to the honeymoon stage and even better.
It is possible to get to a level even more exciting than that – the stage where you can experience explosive love.

We know and are experiencing having a marriage in which the honeymoon phase will last forever. It's all knowledge which God talks about in this verse

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hosea 4:6 Click To Tweet

EP 39 – How to Stick Together in Adversity

5 STRATEGIES TO COPE WITH ADVERSITY SURROUNDING YOUR RELATIONSHIP

Sticking Together In Adversity…

Adversity can make or break a couple if they let it.

You've heard stories and seen movies about couples that go through adversity like caring for a sick family member over a long period of time or financial struggles and other seemingly insurmountable odds. The struggle was too much and they split up. Essentially, they were not able to stick together in adversity.

We?ve also heard opposite stories of couples banding together and becoming stronger as they weather the storm together.

Episode 39 – SHOW NOTES

What is the difference? What is their secret?

  • Relationship with God – When we rely on God, we don't have to shoulder the burden alone and feel the intense weight of it. It is important that we look to the One greater than ourselves.
  • Look outward – When we go through struggle it's tempting to look inward and think about how difficult times are and what we don't have. In those times, we need to remember to look outward and see that others are going through a hard time, too. God will often ask us to help someone else when we are going through something difficult because he knows there is healing in it for us.
  • Treat each other with kindness – Pain and discomfort often bring out the worst in our attitudes. It's during times like this that we need to take a step back and have more patience with our loved ones, particularly or partners. It can be tempting to lash out with our words in a space that feels safe, but we need to remember that our significant other is most likely hurting as well and treat them with patience and kindness.
  • Communication – We need to talk with our partners regularly to maintain an understanding of what we are feeling and what we need. Reach out and ask for help when necessary. Communication helps squelch added struggles that arise from lack of talking to each other.
  • Equally yoked – Shoulder the burdens of the struggle together. Better yet, throw the burden on God?s shoulders and follow him together with your partner. God has the perfect plan for your life.

Final Thoughts

If you're going to stick together through adversity in your relationship or marriage, you will need to be following these tips -especially when it comes to being equally yoked.

Why You Aren’t Happy In Your Relationship

Why You Aren't Happy In Your Relationship

Jon and Jess the Relationship Revivalists uncover the missing ingredient to happiness. We know that there are things we can tolerate in a relationship until they get fixed but there has to be a degree of being happy in your relationship for these things to be tolerated.

So often we look for happiness in our significant other, but that doesn't work for the long-term. Being happy in your relationship doesn't mean that you are madly in love physically because the physical part can fade. The part that makes us happy with our spouse is when we can share struggles with each other and know that there will be a team work to help each other be better than the previous day.

So when we are a team (a united front), there's a security in that very front that speaks of strength and power. These traits come from God, The Father. This is the conclusion that will give you a relationship rooted in abundance in all areas of life. So we challenge you to find your happiness in God first.

Before we even are in a #relationship, we really need to cultivate that amazing relationship that we can have with our heavenly Father. #GodFirst Click To Tweet

Relationship From The Very Beginning

Jon and Jess look back to Adam and Eve in Genesis, and discover a timely mistake. First off, Adam and Eve both did something that was against what God, the Father, instructed them not to do. They did things out of fear, lack or perhaps envy.

Not love.

This is a clue that we can apply to our relationships.

That missing ingredient to happiness could be doing things that show

7 SECRETS TO SUSTAINING A LONG, LASTING, LOVING RELATIONSHIP

Some notes about Gods character:

  • He loves to take what we trust him with and work it out.
  • He watches over us closely.
  • He protects us.
  • He is not containable.
  • He is love, peace, and joy. He doesn't just give these, he is.
  • He is the author of relationship.
  • We learn how to have good relationships from our relationship with him.
  • He is our source.

These very characters are the traits that we aim to be in our every day living. Could it be that Jesus really did show us exactly how to have a successful relationship? In other words, Jesus modeled to us what a successful relationship truly is no matter when someone lived.

In conclusion, Jon and Jess talk about a reminder that the (Nehemiah 8:10).

So in that spirit of instinctually selfish ways, we'd like to go against the grain a bit and give you some ideas on how to make your marriage long lasting and fruitful. A marriage that you want to return to each and every day for the rest of both of your lives.

So do not get discouraged. Your marriage will only fail if you let it fail.

7 Simple Ways To Earn Respect From Your Wife

Simple Ways To Earn Respect From Your Wife

Earn Respect Biblically

It's been said many times over in the bible that all women want is to be loved in a relationship, and all men want is to be respected in a relationship.  The Bible puts it this way:

In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. Ephesians 5:2 #Marriage #Love Click To Tweet
7 Simple Secrets To An Explosive Loving Relationship

The relational differences have been an ongoing issue since the beginning of time.  How to earn respect from your wife is all about communication. Getting into a fight or even a disagreement is going to happen.  It's really what you do afterward that decides if you're in a healthy relationship or not.

7 ways to earn respect from your wife!

However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband. Ephesians 5:33 #marriage #love Click To Tweet
  1. Treat her with respect – do what you can to make sure your wife knows and feels loved.  If you think there is a doubt in her mind about feeling loved, then you probably should listen to your prompting and say/do something to/for her.
  2. Never demand respect from her –  respect is a two-way road and to get the respect you want from her, you have to essentially go about it in a way that doesn?t berate, bully, or belittle her.  You know? be nice, loving, caring, attentive, and all the rest of those good adverbs.  Earn respect from her, don?t take it.
  3. Put people ahead of yourself, including her on a regular basis –  That?s something that really makes her feel loved and special.  When they feel that they are special they will begin to respect you.  Notice, that when a leader exalts himself, they usually get rebellion in return.  When they put other people first, they get love from those he/she leads.  In turn they will follow that leader for as long as that leader treats his people in that manner.
  4. Be a servant first, a leader next – this point is driven home because respect is all about serving people. Look at how Jesus did it.  He served people, He healed them, and made them feel loved.  There are many parallels to the husband/wife relationship with Jesus and the church as well.
  5. Follow through on ALL of your promises ?  When (not if) you make a promise, it is your duty to follow through and make sure the person you promised can trust you. Trust is another part of respect.
  6. Don't be lazy around the house – It speaks volumes to your partner in life, your mate, your wife for life when you can make time to help out around the house.  Not just doing things outside or in the garage either.  If you have kids, spend time with them.  Head up chores on the day your family does chores.  If you are willing and able to do this step ? you are on your way to mastering how to earn respect from your wife.
  7. Volunteer –  This is the cherry on the top, but still important.  This could be as little as calling people up to organize a night out for the adults.  You could be an encouragement to someone who needs it.  After all, we all need to be encouraged at one point or another.  It?s just our human nature and how God made us to feel loved and needed.

If you can consistently do these seven steps to earning respect from your wife for 30 days, then you are on your way to making a habit that will give you the comfort of knowing you are mastering how to earn respect from your wife!

Save to your Pinterest

You've heard that it takes 21 days to create a habit.   According to Dr. Leaf, it takes 3 cycles of 21 days to really create a habit that will not fade away.

Does Your Relationship Practice These Effective Tips?

In order to start, all you have to do is to have the thought to start. But that's not where this should stop. Keep going and make a mental effort to follow through with your efforts.

A great movie to watch that demonstrates these simple steps is called “Fireproof“

Earn Respect One Thought At a Time

Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.

We would love to connect with you on our podcast platform for more great information on infusing explosive love back into your relationship.
