- Money-Money can be a blessing to a family and it can be an agent of destabilisation, hence, we must handle it wisely. Be open to each other about your income, plan together, spend together, and never allow money to separate you. Selfishness, stinginess, unfaithfulness, lying, deceit should not be allowed in your marriage; they give room for the enemy to come into the home, so let there be openness, generousity, truthfulness, faithfulness and trust . Use money as a tool to improve your marriage, never allow the enemies to use it against you, handle money wisely.
- Conflict– Conflict is another thing you must handle with wisdom and patience. There will always be misunderstanding, there will always be conflict but you must handle yours with prayer and care, lest it destabilizes your home. Avoid doing or saying things that will have lasting negative impact; use conflict to improve your marriage, use it to connect with your spouse, use it as a stepping stone not a stumbling block, be positive, be open, be patient and be careful.
- In-Laws –In-Laws should be handled with care and wisdom, they are part of our daily life. They can be the positive or negative types. They can be loving or wicked, caring or bossy, a plus or a minus. No matter what they are, the onus is on us to use them to build our homes instead of allowing them to destroy our family.
- Third parties-Apart from in-laws, third parties like friends, neighbors and family members must be handled with shrewdness. They must not be allowed to run the affairs of our family for us.
- Children-We must be astute in dealing with children. We must train them in the way of the Lord, and bring them to the knowledge of Christ.
