Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who do not cause trouble in their own household. In Jesus’ name, amen.
There are plenty of ways to bring trouble on your own household. There are extreme cases like adultery. Others include financial infidelity where one spouse lies to the other about their spending habits. Anger can shake the core of any household.
Proverbs 11:29 (ESV) is about what happens to those who trouble their own household.
“Whoever troubles his own household will inherit the wind,
and the fool will be servant to the wise of heart.”
Are you at risk of inheriting the wind? If you are the cause of trouble in your household, find a way to reconcile. Allow God to change your heart, so you can preserve your family.
