Reconciliation During Lockdown

What quarantine has done so far? The damage, devastation, loneliness, frustration than these are the symptoms of ecophobia or homophobia ( the fear of house and the family). If you are feeling these things during lockdown or quarantine, you also need to be treated Biblically. One side the good spouses are appreciating for having someone to face a dreadful future with. On the other hand, it may be really hard for some couples to cope up with each other.

During lockdown matrimonial lawyers have pointed to a spike in phone calls related to marital discord. They said many of these phone calls are from couples who have been married for over 10 years and are waiting for the courts to reopen so they can file for a divorce. Some other phone calls are said to be related to divorce settlements and maintenance amounts. Despite the lockdown, there have been requests for urgent personal meetings.

India Times Report

In China, more than a dozen cities reported a spike in filings for divorce during the lockdown, with a month-long waiting list reported in Shanghai in February. There has been speculation that Italy, which has a relatively low divorce rate, may see an increase in couples separating after the strain of enforced time together. www.telegraph. co.uk

Scary times have the potential to drive people together or apart.

As a Christian how are you dealing your quarantine? Quarantined, frustrated, baffled, isolated, disconnected or loving your quality family time.

If you feel yourself getting irritated or annoyed with your family and children, don't be too hard on yourself. This is a challenging time for lots of people and there are things you can do to help. Try following these biblical prescriptions and taking some time before reacting.

The families are broken today, the covenant is long broken, husband and wife spending thousands of rupees and dollars to be separated, children are in orphanages or child care centres. This sickness needs Biblical remedies, cures, therapies, medications so here are few prescriptions mentioned for the entire family, take them as guided by your creator Abba Father.

Let us try to understand what family is from a Biblical point of view.

Gen. 2: 18, 21-24

[18]And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.”

Genesis 2:18,21-24

[18]And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.”

[21]And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept, and He took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh in its place.

[22]Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.

[23]And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman Because she was taken out of Man.”

[24]Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

Before studying the word let us look the Lord in prayers, 'our most gracious heavenly Father, we humble ourselves and come before your feet, God you yourself have institutionalised the marriage and made it holy. But today we have defiled, violated and disobeyed your commands and broken the covenant we made to each other. Through today's sermon help us to come to our senses and restore our broken marriages. In Jesus name, we pray Amen'.

I know there are many more beautiful verses explaining this beautiful husband and wife relationship but it is where the institution has begun if we study the purposes of creating male and female we can figure out the therapies and medications.

By the way why these medical terms because we are really spiritually sick and so the relationship is unhealthy.

The modern world has created a lot of confusion and chaos regarding the roles, positions, responsibilities, obligations and functions of the husband-wife in the family, in the church and in the society. Most of the biblical principles and regulations of gender roles are considered outdated and unfashionable and it is no longer lived so the families are messed because we messed the responsibilities bestowed upon us by God. This is the dilemma that has led many couples to the courts, isolation, solitude, Psychiatrists but not to the Bible. But if you are seriously looking prescriptions for your unhealthy relationships. Instead of googling the best lawyers or psychiatrists in the city, search the scriptures, you will find vaccines for your spiritual problems and issues.

Satan has stimulated chaos, confusion, complications, barriers in a beautiful family.

Through self-centredness, unforgiving, suspicious, rudeness, dominant, stubbornness, Disrespect, cheating etc.

Husband and wife relationship can be best explained by only one relationship that is the Christ and the Church relationship. "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word",
