LOVE'S PRAISE

"What you love you praise; who you love you even praise more." - C.E.O


Proverbs 31:28-29 (BBE)
28 Her children get up and give her honour, and her husband gives her praise, saying, 29 Unnumbered women have done well, but you are better than all of them.


There's something about the way praise works. The more you praise a thing, the more you make yourself believe that thing is special. Praise deepens your admiration for something. It's the same when it comes to praising your partner. God had to add that in there in Proverbs 31. Many people have lost the peace and stability in their homes because they could not praise their partner. The moment you reduce your partner privately or publicly to being like every other woman/man or to being less than other women/men, you don't only kill something in them, you also begin to kill that thing in you that makes you regard them as special. As long as you esteem them as special, they will act special. When I talk of praising your partner, I'm not talking about greatly admiring what they do in your heart. No, that's not praise. Praise is declared, it's published, it's made known, it's spoken etc.

Praising your partner means that you let them know that you are favoured to have them in your life. It means that you tell them they surpass others even though those other people have done wonderful things. The effect of praise is magical and it appears that women need it more. Some have desisted from praising their partner because they say they don't want the praise to get into their head. But God obviously recommends that men praise their wives. He does not say for the man to be careful so the praise won't make her go haywire. Truth is, as long as a woman receives praise from her husband that makes her know she is cherished above all others and deeply appreciated, she will stay deeply loyal, devoted and committed with all her heart. When a man boasts about his woman, her security, sense of worth and confidence receive an indescribable boost.

You know, in a relationship/marriage, the man is the one giving the love as it were, while the woman responds or does the reciprocating. Praise should also go from the woman to the man. We can see this from an interesting Bible story of how Paul and Silas were arrested and imprisoned for preaching. It's a story I believe you're familiar with. Notice however, that Paul and Silas prayed but only saw manifestations of God when they got into singing His praises. Their prayers were answered but they didn't see the answer until they praised God. Men can be said to be that way. Praise gets them to do stuff. Women can get things better from men by praising them. I believe we can all incorporate some more praise into our relationships. Let's declare how amazing the people we love are, and they will get even more amazing. Let's talk about how efficient they are and they'll get even more and more efficient. Praise does good to them and to the way you see them. So, praise your partner in private and in public today.
