10 Promises That Will Improve Your Sex Life

Sex is the most intimate and personal interchange between a husband and wife that God ever conceived.  When done God’s way, a husband and wife “become one,” and unite physically, emotionally, and spiritually. In this experience, self-giving trust becomes the magnet that draws a couple to one another. To build this trust takes time and intentional faithfulness.  A husband should regularly make (and keep) the following 10 Promises to his wife.  If he makes (and keeps) these promises, intimacy will certainly improve.

1) I will have eyes for you alone.

2) I will not allow pornography to determine my desires.

3) I will not make you responsible for my self-control.

4) I will not express disappointment in you for having a different pace, desire, or experience from me.

5) I will protect and honor our marriage bed.

6) I will pursue emotional intimacy with you.

7) I will give you my best attention so that you see how valuable you are to me.

8) I will reject forbidden pleasure.

9) I will make pleasuring you my greatest pleasure.

10)  I will strive to be romantic and desirable for you every day.

When a man gets specific about the promises he is making to his wife, he must be faithful to keep his promises. 

What if you reviewed this list every day, and before every date night? 

What would change in you?

 

The Swordsman: Wielding the Word — Part 1: Husbands is a new IMPACT Cohort study for men who desire to be great husbands who are skillfully equipped with the Word of God.  We call these men who know how to rightly handle Scripture in their marriage, family, and work lives “Swordsmen.” 

The difference between a man with a sword and a swordsman comes down to training and expertise. The Word of God is known as “the sword of the Spirit” and “a double-edged sword,” yet most men have not learned to wield God’s Word like an expert swordsman. In this IMPACT Players Cohort study, men will be trained with the 7 verses that every husband must learn to wield effectively in their marriage.
