Here are some of the things that ruin happy homes.

1. Unfaithfulness to each other as husband and wife
2. Starving each other of sex b’cos of misunderstanding
3. When a wife refuse to cook for her husband b’cos of quarrel between them
4. Dirtiness from either of the party
5. Selfishness i.e. wanting to have everything to yourself or the best without considering the other person
6. Keeping secret from each other. This could be past or present secret
7. Resentment i.e. avoiding yourself because of unsettled quarrels
8. Envious of each others progress and success in life
9. Inability to apologize to each other. When there are issues
10. Bad communication i.e. using insultive and abusive words toward each other
11. Inability to accept correction from your spouse
12. Starving each other of fund i.e. being stingy to each other
13. Telling lies to your spouse
14. Impatient with your spouse
15. Uncontrollable anger
16. Intolerance i.e. being untouched. You always find fault in your spouse
17. Interference of third party e.g. friends and in-laws
18. Prayerlessness in family and many others

I want you to know that you can enjoy the peace and joy of God in your home by doing whatsoever Jesus tells you in his words in your home.
What has Jesus said?
1. Eph 5: 21-33 –Submit to your spouse and love one another as Christ loves the church.
2. 1 Thess 5:17-Pray together as family i.e. have a strong and consistent family altar
3. 2 Corin 6:14-18-Don’t be unequally yoke with the unbelievers. Don’t use the philosophy of the world to run your home
4. Eph 4:25-Don’t lie to one another. Be truthful and let your yes be yes and your no be no
5. Eph 4:26-Control your anger. Don’t be destructive when you are angry
6. vs 29-Be courtesy in communication to your spouse
7. Seek Godly counsel from genuine servants of God when having misunderstanding between you and your spouse. Finally, you must be born again. These things cannot be done by an ordinary man or woman, but children of God.

Thanks. I know that. I chose to analyse it for people to understand it.

Another bad habit: PRIDE.

Pride has desroyed so many homes, wives are not ready to humble and submit to their hubbies again.
Likewise, men are too concious of d fact dt they are d head, they are just too head-strong, they dont want their wives to question their authority, hence, reminding their wives they are d head.
May God help all of us
