Topic: REPETITIVE ISSUES

Facilitator : Apostle Vee Magombo

Judges
6:3 Whenever the Israelites planted their crops, the Midianites, Amalekites and other eastern peoples invaded the country.

Shona
6:3 Isiraeri yaiti kana vakusha, vaMidhiani navaAmareki navana vamabvazuva vaikwira kuzorwa navo.

Luke 4:18 says.......'The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed,

The above means they are people oppressed Jesus came for.
Pane zvinoda kutsiurwa mumweya .

Hameno kwenyu kuti zvakadii uye zvakamira sei, asi ddoda kumbobata nyaya isina kujairika kutaura nezvayo.

Vazhinji tinoti kana ta muna Kritsu zvinhu zvese zvazvitsva.
Hongu ichokwadi, asi hazvingova zvitsva pasina chaitwa uye nekuzvipinza muna Kristu macho.

As couples tirikuoneswa nhamo nezvinorema kutsanangura.
Kune wandaitaura naye achiti kwedu kune mweya inotanga kuvhiringidza hupenyu hwemhuri unotanga muna August zvichino dongorera December.
Mweya wema accidents. Anoti nemurume wake they had to work hard against that spirit.

Kwevamwe it's unexplained sicknesses that leads to deaths.
To another family divorce. To another mental illness. To another extreme poverty.
To another rebellious children. To another unbudgeted expenses , the list goes on.

Kwevamwe mese munotambura muma marriage.
Vamwe kushaya mbereko chaiko.
Vamwe munopera kusvodza ne kufirwa nevana zvisina tsanangudzo.
Vamwe vese vakapera kufa iwe ndiwe wega wasara.
It's not normal especially when we are in Christ.

Yes, admirably kwevamwe chishamiso chandiri kutaura. Asi I believe I have witnesses.

As a couple, you plan but there is something that always disturbs that plan. You work so hard but nothing to show your efforts. You are all educated but jobless.

Hama dzangu , as a couple 💑, I have come to encourage you with Mark
9:29 b ..... 'This kind can come out only by prayer.'

Shona
9:29b..... Rudzi urwu harungatongobudi, asi nokutsanya nokunyengetera.

As a couple 💑, let's pray against these unpleasant repetitive generational incidents that leave us miserable.

Dealing with the Marriage Destroyers; (Bottling-up Issues)

Proverbs 4:23 Guard your heart with all diligence because from out of it flows the issues of life.This scripture implies that whatever we allow to enter our hearts, if not examined and evaluated properly, will undoubtedly be expressed in our lives and our actions in positive or negative ways.
Kutadzirana in marriage kunowanikwa, asikana mumwe wako akutadzira zvakanaka kubudirana pachena kuti hausi kufara nezvaitika than kuchengeta chigumbu ichocho mumoyo mako.
Bottling up your emotions means suppressing your innermost feelings. It is when you avoid venting out what you really feel. There is the fear that you may appear weak or just prefer keeping your emotions to yourself, which is common. It’s like sweeping the dirt under the rug and keeping the lid of a boiling pot.

The truth is, you can’t avoid these emotions, and they don’t go away that easily. Bottling up your emotions is never good for the mind and body. Your physical and mental health is greatly affected when you repress your emotions.
Moyo wako harisi dura rekuchengetera zvigumbu, bitterness, kusaregerera kwete, asi moyo wako unofanirwa kuchengetedza rugare nerunyararo all the times.
Dzidzai kutaura nyaya pazvaitika zvichipera, kwete kuturikidza nyaya dzegore riya nerakapera. Mukadaro munozvikokera hurwere husingapere, uye munokasika kuchembera nekushaya rugare.

Dealing with the Marriage Destroyers. "Put your House in Order".

Isaiah 38:1 "Put your house in order",...

Muhupenyu kurongeka kwakakosha zvikuru panezvese zvatinoita. Kunyanya zvikuru in our marriages, to be an orderly person is of paramount importance.

Marriage can be challenging for most people as it involves melding your life and goals with someone else’s. Marriage problems after kids or other major changes can be challenging to deal with and can lead to resentment and feelings of disappointment.

Marriage problems, however, are often a result of complacent behavior and oversight. These problems can be resolved with the right approach and openness to reflect.
Here are some conflicts that plague married couples and ways you can solve them:
● Debts/Zvikereti:
Learn to live within your means. Don't borrow or enter into credits just to please someone. When they are gone you will remain with the payment stress and burden.

Debt is bad in a marriage because when one person spends too much money, it affects the other person. When a person is too busy trying to pay off their debts, it affects how much they can contribute to the household. This means the other person has to put more money toward household expenses and this can lead to bitterness and resentment. These emotions can then lead to full-blown arguments.

Chikwereti chinoita sekunge chinokuyambutsa kana kubatsira asi ukanyatso zviwongorora, chinoto kupinza mumatambudziko akawandisa, stress nekushaiwa zororo kusvika wabhadhara. Matambudziko akawanda in our marriages anokonzereswa nenhawu dzekusarongeka kunoguma kwati nyudza muzvikwereti.

Mwari ngavatibatsire tigone kubuda muzvikwereti, uye tigone kurarama within our means.

Topic: GET RID OF YOUR OPTIONS

Facilitator : Tinashe S Tsopotsa

Mar 10:9 ISV Therefore, what God has joined together, man must never separate.”

One of the most dangerous things that is happen in marriages is that people are getting married whilst they have other options. They agree to marry and yet they already have an exit plan, it's so worrying that you hear someone say if she this and that happens then l will leave the marriage. If this n that doesnt happen l will leave.

All this is happening because people still have options yet marriage is not a reversible process, once done you die together. You win together and you stay together as one.

The reason we have couples fighting against each other instead of for each other is because they still have options. The reason why marriage has lost its original sense and taste its because the people marrying still have options and have designed an evil idea of what marriage is. They have designed a kind of marriage where there is an exit pattern.

Marriage is not staying for the kids, vana vakauya mawirirana marriage kare and cannot be the reason to continue together. With or without the little kids marriage must live on. Stay in that marriage for yourself not the kids. Stop creating a false doctrine on marriage.

The reason why many couples aren't solving their marital issues, its because they still have options to consider. Deal away with options and solve your problems. W**d out exit plans and you will live like your marriage is all that you have, till death do us part should mean till death do you part, noone is leaving!

Hallelujah!!!

Topic: WHO DO YOU LISTEN TO?

Facilitator : Tinashe S Tsopotsa

Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

Its crazy how much people love to get married, and when they get married, they end up getting out of the same marriages they prayed and fasted for. Most of the problems that we face as people in this world start from a misgoverned marriage.

Marriage plays a very big role in society. Even from the start, sin came into the world as a result of Adam and Eve, who couldn't uphold their marriage constitution, which God had given them.

It was known in the whole of Eden that the snake was more canning and wise, and yet when the same serpent came and talked to Eve and convinced her to go against the LORD'S command.

The devil only wanted Eve's ears to get the whole of Adam and Eve's marriage fail. The moment that as a couple you open your ears to listen to any other marital advice that has nothing to do with the guidelines set in the word of God, you should know trouble is coming.

You can not, as a person in marriage , listen to all kinds of information and apply to your marriage. Had Eve not entertained the serpent until now, sin wouldn't have come into the world.

Seeking help in times of problems is good, but where do you seek help? Whose voice do you trust to listen to?

When you have problems in your marriage, you should know that you are not rivals but victims of the problem, to solve it, don't treat each other as rivals but be on the same side and work on resolving issues together knowing and realising fully that you both want your union to work.

Topic: KUOMERA / STINGINESS

Facilitator : Apostle Vee

Proverbs 11:24
One person is generous and yet grows more wealthy, but another withholds more than he should and comes to poverty.

*"My husband is so rich but very stingy much that I end up inflating figures so I can have that extra money for my parents. I inflate the maid and garden salaries. At times I demand money for extra lessons for our children which they never go as I divert the money for my personal use. One day I locked the electric gate so it would not move. I demanded money to fix it as he left home for work"*

Above is a story someone shared.
When we are stingy we usually never realize it. One can give and still be stingy. There are some people who give, but with a grudging heart.

There are some people who offer things, but in their mind they hope the other person says no.
We must not be lovers of self and lovers of money. We must think about others just like Christ thought about us. Give with a cheerful heart not expecting anything in return. Be generous and love others just like Christ loves you.

Stinginess is not good in our marriages. It creates what I can say kachitsotsi to the victim.

I know of a man who was so stingy much that when he got sick he could not go to doctors. Unfortunately he died and left so much richies. The money he worked hard for could not do a thing cause of stinginess.
Yes, indisputably we have to save. But panekumwe kuchengetedza kunokutambudza.

Stinginess is a controversial topic. What others think is stinginess is not, but
saving for better use. Others take stinginess as stinginess.....
I don't know what you think ?.

Topic: BORROWING

Facilitator : Apostle Vee

Exodus 22:14a
If anything is borrowed, it should be paid back...

2 Kings 4 : 1
The wife of a man from the company of the prophets cried out to Elisha, "Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that he revered the LORD. But now his creditor is coming to take my two boys as his slaves."

As couples, there are times some of us face financial challenges.
Many a times we are left with no option, but to borrow from a bank, family friend or relatives.
It is a blessing if one finds someone willing to help.

Our number 1 challenge is when one makes this decision to borrow alone. Meaning out of the knowledge of the other spouse.
Kunoboreka mari wega umwe wako asinga zivi, wotadza to pay back zvinenyaya hama dzangu.

In such scenarios, we see strangers coming home or at work to make noise.
Some even come home to pick furniture etc.
Zvinenge zvakwidza makata. Pamwe ikoko kwakaborekwa kunenge kwapisawo.

I'm reminded of a man who died. He had borrowed a huge amount of money and could not pay back. This resulted in his wife and children loosing the matrimonial home. They became destitutes.

See how costly borrowing can affect the whole family and a hard earned precious inheritance?.

All things being equal, the husband and wife in 2 Kings 4 : 1 , could have agreed on the soft loan as a couple since the husband was a prophet, a respected figure in the community.

Unfortunately the prophet died before they had paid back.
The creditors did not care about who this man was. They came for the two boys as his slaves. Imagine vana voitwa varanda nekuda kwechikwereti.
Fortunately the woman cried to a good helper who helped.

How many families can get such help if we come across such a scenario?.
Vangani vangasangana nenyasha dzakadai ?.
Instead, tinotorasikirwa, nekushungurudzwa pamwe nokutosungwa.

May God help us as couples to be wise and not to borrow out of the knowledge of the other spouse. Before we borrow, let's me wise. Zvatinenge taka temba zvinogona kuenda nepamwe.

Title:-Together(As A Couple) We Are Stronger.

Mark 3:25
And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

Let me end this session by reiterating that God saw it fit that man should not be alone. He did not go and create from elsewhere but pulled the woman out of the man.Which serves as a confirmation that we are two manifestations of the same creation. Two sides of a coin, figuratively speaking. If the coin has one side and the other be blank it is invalid. It is only valid if it is complete.

For your marriage to succeed be present and participate actively, as the saying goes, *"you have to be in it to win it."* Do not make the mistake of checking out of your marriage. Things may be difficult, you may be facing challenges, but if you have got a marriage then fight for it, do your best and God will do the rest.

Be encouraged all the time, God will neither leave you nor forsake you. Change your tone today and be more gentle with your spouse, hold their hand and assure them that things will be well and that you are in it together. Don't jump ship, quitting is for cowards and the weak.

Whichever area you are encountering challenges in, financial, health, spiritual, intimacy,etc, together you are stronger than one. The Word of God says, "one will set a thousand to flight, but two will set ten thousand....." I beseech each and every one of us on this platform to rededicate themself to work on their marriage and to being an easier partner to work with.

Some issues don't need prayer and fasting, but a simple decision to give it your all and to commit to winning together with your partner.

As the anchor scripture of this teaching states, "And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand."

God bless you all ZCCM, till next time....I bless your marriages in Jesus' name.

Amen.

Grace & Peace be unto you all.

Title:-How do you Identify(As A Couple) Part 2

Matthew 16:15-17
He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.(KJV)

Every marriage has to be authentic in itself, i.e. it must be unique in its makeup. When two people meet, their combination can never be identical to that of any other couple if it is to survive. Even if it were identical twins marrying other identical twins, each couple must have its uniqueness.

When Peter answered Jesus, Christ discerned from whence Peter's answer came from, it was a divine revelation given unto Peter in real time.
As a spouse you need to know who your partner truly is.There are certain weaknesses you must 'die to' in order to make you marriage work. Accept that your partner will never be like some other person, he/she is unique unto his/herself.

When you truly accept your partner for who they are, then your personal journey and understanding of Christ begins in earnest.
The bible says how can you love God whom you have not seen and yet you can't love your neighbor whom you have seen.

The disciples had said people identified Jesus in different capacities.Know, accept and fit into you partners various identities. With family your partner is a different personality, at work, in the kitchen and in the bedroom, they are one person but different identities.
The word love means different things at different places and with different people at different settings. Understand what your spouse needs at different times.

Jesus knew His disciples and understood His environment so much such that He related with them differently but appropriately according to circumstances.
At some stage he sent them, but at another they were His partners in prayer. Sometimes He did things Himself but at other times He empowered them to do. He correctly identified everyone in every setting. Your marriage can't be successful if you fail to identify your spouse in their different capacities and capabilities. You can't compliment if you can't identify correctly.

Let heaven give you a divine revelation of your partners identity, and empower you to be adaptable and versatile enough to compliment, for the greater good of your marriage.

God bless you all.

Grace & Peace be unto you all.

Title : How Do You Identify (As A Couple)

Matthew 15:13-15
When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

He saith unto them, *But whom say ye that I am?*

Identity is a critical part of life and how you deal with issues. Not only the way how you view/think of yourself, but also how people view/perceive you. Hence it is important to try and match your own view with that of those around you. This applies to you individually and to you both, as a couple.

You know very well that there are areas where you know that you excel, both in your own opinion and that of your family and friends. Then there are those areas that you are defeated even before you make an attempt at tackling them.

Jesus asked His disciples of the people's perception of who He was. He went further and asked for His disciples perception. He was different things to different people, at different times and yet He never lost Himself in those different identities.
Who are you to yourself ? Who are you to you spouse ? Who are you to your family and friends ?

Dare I go further and borrow from Jesus and ask who Jesus is to you, personally and as a couple ? Has it occurred to you that your answered and unanswered prayers are all hinged on who Jesus is to you ?
Who He is to you determines how deep your relationship is with Him. Do you carry Jesus and His word with you always or occasionally. And when you do carry Him, how much of Him do you carry ?
