Protect Your Marriage Spiritually

  • Protect Your Marriage 
The Apostle Paul said, Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil" (Ephesians 6:11).

  • The Power of Prayer

In the article, How To Protect Your Marriage and Family, the author writes, that we have a powerful, spiritual weapon called prayer. He says, "A prayerless marriage is a powerless marriage. When we fail to pray, our defenses are down; our flesh becomes weak consequently giving the enemy easy access to our areas of vulnerability. A prayerful marriage is a powerful marriage. Prayer, and the knowledge of God’s truth are powerful weapons in our arsenal. By taking time to pray daily with and for our mate, and spending time in God’s word we can win the spiritual battles and fortify our marriage against the wiles of the enemy. Protect your marriage with prayer" (Milam).

I can honestly say this is an area that I need to work on, I don't know if anyone can relate, but I go through periods of frequent and infrequent praying. For individual prayers, I try to say a prayer when I wake up in the morning, before I go to sleep at night, to bless a meal,  before I travel and when I arrive at my destination safely. I also try to include a couple and family prayer.

Implantation Dips & Raised BBT

An Implantation Dip is when your basal body temperature (BBT) dips below your cover line post ovulation, usually said to occur around 7 to 9 days pass ovulation on average and then continues to rise without falling below the cover line again. 3 to 5 days pass ovulation for implantation dips is said to be rare.  Some believe implantation dips are myths, because of varying results in dips and outcomes for pregnancy.  Usually it is said when your BBT stays above your cover line without dipping below the cover line, it is a sign that you're pregnant.   This is just a theory, but it seems for some early implantation dips, may lead to earlier positive pregnancy tests. The exception to early implantation dips theory I have found is that  some women get early positive pregnancy tests as a result of having a multiples pregnancy, some women gets dips in many of their cycles that do not result in pregnancy and some women like me don't get dips during a c...
