5 Things Bible Teaches Husbands To Give To Their Wives.

psychologies and coaches give plenty of advice on marriage, but God is the Author of this institution. He is the One, who knows exactly how husbands should treat their wives. Here what He says about it in the Bible.
That’s not the human opinion, but the higher decree from the Lord and we find them in the Scriptures.

1. Esteem
Wait, we thought wives should respect their husbands! Yes, they should, but it has to be mutual. Here is what the Word of God says:
“Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect…” (1 Peter 3:7)

God created men and women in His own likeness and image. This means He is in us and His image is worthy to be honored and respected! It also means that husbands, who put down or even beat their wives, show huge disrespect for their Creator.

2. Tenderness
“Do not be harsh with your wife.” (Colossians 3:19)

It means men should not use harsh words or bad language, when they talk to their wives. They should not be overloading those with work and be attentive to their needs.
God is her father. You are married to the daughter of the King of Kings. Do you think He would be pleased, if you abuse or hurt her? Surely, men have the power to treat women as they wish, but they are to answer before God for it.

3. Honour
“Honour your marriage; keep it pure by remaining true to your wife in every way.” (Hebrews 13:4)

Do not only expect to be honoured by your wife, but give it back to her. Remember, you reap what you sow!

4. Loyalty
“Do not be captivated by other women” (Proverbs 5:20)

God created one woman for one man. That’s His plan. If you wish to please the Lord, stick with it. That does not involve only physical intimacy. You should stay focused on your wife, catering to her emotional, financial and other needs. Do not waste yourself on other ladies.

5. Admiration

“Call your wife ‘blessed’ and praise her.” (Proverbs 31: 28-29)

Praise and good words build up a happy marriage. Praise her for what she does for you, do not take it for granted.
God knows what is good for you. If you follow His tips for marriage, it is bound to be happy and successful.

THE ISSUE OF RAPE, WITHIN THE CONFINES OF MARRIAGE (how wives are being raped by husbands)

Rape occurs when sexual intercourse or any other sexual activity is forced upon an individual without his/her consent. In marriage however, it is a form of domestic violence and sexual abuse, wherein sex is forced on one spouse by the other. As strange as it sounds, rape also occurs in marriage. Any sexual activity not consented by both parties, is rape. The prominent kind of rape in marriage however is wife rape.


Rape generally is perceived not to be present in marriage, being that a woman is supposed to consensually engage in sex with her husband, making rape unnecessary. This is why despite the fact that rape in marriage has become quite rampant, it is given little or no attention from Human right activists', Criminal Justice System and even the society at large. Infact, wife rape remains one of the prevalent, yet under-reported crimes in Nigeria.


Two of the best studies so far which have investigated the general existence of wife rape in representative samples of women ( Finkelhor & Yllo, 1985; Russell, 1990) have found that between 10-14% of women who have ever been married have been raped at least once by their partner.
