conflict management

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore. (Psalms 133:1-3 KJV)

WHAT CONFLICT IS: A Disagreement or Argument about something that is important.

– It is a situation where different People want different things.

– When conflict are well managed it leads to Confluence,when it is wrongly managed it leads to Crisis.

 
CAUSES OF CONFLICT IN MARRIAGE
–UNGODLINESS: If you lack the fear of God, your marriage can not be void of problems, so renounce every hidden sin and give your life to Christ. Live holy life and it shall be well with you

–IMMATURITY: Maturity is not by age but how you can manage situations and taking up responsibility. You need to be matured spiritually, emotionally, mentally etc

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. (1 Corinthians 13:11 KJV)

To be matured means you will learn to think before you speak.

 
–SELFISHNESS: If all you do in that marriage is for yourself, you will soon destroy that marriage, let go of that habit and learn to always put your partner and children first

 
–OUR EXPECTATION: Let go of undue expectation, be considerate, play your part and take up responsibility to make that marriage work

 
–OUR CHARACTER AND ATTITUDE: Learn to be pleasant to live with and imbibe godly character, be kind toward each other and you will surly have heaven on earth marriage.
