Romance in Marriage, see what the bible says WOW

"Let her breasts satisfy you at all times" Pro. 5:19. What a staggering statement in the Bible. It is there on purpose. It is a Biblical principal for married men. Husbands and wives need to know this and apply it as God intended.
 
It changed her marriage
While speaking in a marriage seminar, a beautiful lady asked if she could speak to me. She asked, "Why is it that every time my husband kisses me he puts his hands on my breast. It is as if he is a sex fien." I asked, "Do you think I am a sex fiend?" "Of course not" she replied. "What would you say if I told you that most of the time when I kiss my wife in private, I put my hand on her breasts? I love every bone in her body and to me it is just pouring love into to her. I am not always thinking about sex but just loving her.  To say she was shocked is an understatement.
 
The next day she said, "Last night I went to bed with my husband and for the first time I did not feel dirty. You made sex sound so right and loving." A few months later she told me that the truth had transformed their marriage. She was able to respond to her husband's wonderful physical expression of love as she should.  This realization brought a new joy to their marriage that had been missing.
 
Why some wives don't respond as they should is that some women were brought up in an ultra conservative family, where sex was not to be mentioned outside the confines of the bedroom. It is often hard for them to respond as God intended for wives to do because they have learned to associate sex as something dirty not of God. Then some women learned about sex in a very wrong atmosphere. Other women were mistreated, molested and even raped and this has scared them for life.
 
A wife had been raped
After I had preached in a church, a young couple came to me and the wife was weeping and sobbing. She had been raped while in college and devastated from it and still held bitterness in her heart. I told her as I have told many "Pray as the Lord Jesus did, Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. Then by faith, forgive the man who assaulted you turn your hurt and bitterness over to God.  Once you have turned all over to God, move forward with your dear husband who loves you no matter what happened." This young lady prayed with me right then and you should have seen the peace of God come over her. She grabbed her husband and they kissed and their marriage was transformed.
 
Let him be satisfied
O dear ladies, let your husband be satisfied with you body. You don't want him to look and lust after other women. Let him be so satisfied with you that he will be like Joseph when Potiphar's wife tried to entice him.  She said, "Lie with me." He said, "How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God?" Gen. 39:9. Don't worry I am going to be hard on husbands who do not give you the love and tenderness that women need and deserve from their husbands.
 
To be continued: the need and joy of romance in marriage. God loves you and so do I, all because of Calvary, sumner
 
Prayer:  Father, bless this couple and make their marriage so full of love and joy that they will a great example, good role models to young people and young couples, In Jesus name

Romance in Marriage, Scripturally and Spiritually

A.M. (after marriage) Romance
"Let your fountain be blessed, And rejoice in the wife of your youth. As a loving kind and a graceful doe, Let her breasts satisfy you at all times; Be exhilarated always with her love" Prov. 5:18, 19. This intimate relationship of a man and his wife is meant to be enjoyed to the fullest. God says be ravished (intoxicated or exhilarated, Hebrew) with her love, this is referring to this wonderful physical expression of love in marriage. This intimacy is not only for procreation but also for pleasure! "Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge" Heb 13:4. More on this in the next section on sex. Don't miss this. Stay with us.
 
Keep romance in marriage
Holding hands, hugging and kissing MUST continue after the wedding bells have stopped ringing. This is especial essential for the wife's sake. Kind sir, you were Romeo incarnate while dating her. You took the initiative to hold her hand, to hug her and to kiss her. A good strong and healthy intimate relation in the bed begins by holding her hands, hugging and kissing all through the day. This tells her you love her and not just her body. Doesn't that make sense?
 
Look and touch
A man is aroused and prepared for this intimate relation by sight as well as touch, a woman is aroused mostly by touch, tender caressing. This is so important for both husband and wife to understand and to respond. Let him look for his sake. In fact, encourage him to look. Better yet, entice him to look so he won't be enticed to look at other women. He will love you the more for it. So much more on this later.
 
Why does God say for a man not to look at a woman to lust after her? Because a man is aroused by sight. That is why God says for women to be dressed in 1 Tim. 2:9-10 "women adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly. As is proper for women making a claim to godliness." God wants women to conceal the intimate parts of our body. The world does all it can to reveal as much of the female body as they can get away with. Remember, "Woe to the world because of its stumbling blocks! For it is inevitable that stumbling blocks come; but woe to that man through whom the stumbling block comes" Matt. 18:7. Ladies be sure you don't put out a stumbling block by the way you dress, before men who are not your husband. Rom. 14:13.
 
Let him touch for your sake as well as his. "Let her breast satisfy you at all times." Still ahead, Why some women have a hard time with this admonition and the cure for it. Don't miss the next couple of weeks for great truths, right out of the Bible, for a marriage filled with "rejoicing" Pro 5:18.
 
O dear people, "happy marriages don't happen, they are worked at." "Live with your wives in an understanding way" 1 Peter 3:7. We must understand each other and do what is essential for both to enjoy their marriage and the intimate relations that God intends to be enjoyed.
 
Good news, Christ died for our sins, paid our debt and rose again so God, who is holy, could forgive us our sins, give us a new birth and finally take us to heaven instead of us going to hell. Believe and receive the Lord Jesus, right now, if you haven't already. You are loved with agape love by God and me, all because of Calvary, sumner www.sumnerwemp.com
