FixerUpperMarriage.org/togetherWhen you are fixing up a house, you can find some unexpected issues.  Maybe you discover that there is no insulation in part of the house. Maybe the electrical wires or the plumbing pipes were installed wrong.  There could be a number of unexpected problems to show up.Likewise, when you are trying to fixing up your marriage, you may find unexpected problems that you did not realize were there.  There could be problems that your spouse has that you were unaware of until you tried to make things better. Today, learn three ways to fix your marriage together.1. Find Your Common EnemyI have a friend who fought in the Gulf War in Iraq.  He has told me several times about how when he first enlisted they all had groups.  Everyone just found a specific group of people like themselves. For example, he is from New York, so he hung out with the guys from that area.  However, when they went into battle, there were no groups because they all had a common enemy to fight.Marriage can get this way, you are so busy fighting with each other that you forget that you have a common enemy.  You can become one by understanding that there are outside forces that are trying to destroy your marriage. You can learn how to fight them together.The Devil Is Your EnemyYou must understand that the devil hates a godly marriage, and he hates the home.  Two people who join together in the marriage bond can work together to expand the Church of the living God more than one person alone.  Therefore he is actively seeking to destroy the Christian marriage and family.In understanding this as a couple you can put aside the things you may be fighting about and work together to solve the problems in your marriage.Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. John 8: 44Your Marriage Is a TargetYou may think that you are not worth the trouble of satan targeting you, but you are if you attempt to live for God and have a good marriage.  Don’t be naive about what the devil is doing to your marriage. If you don’t believe me, try making a choice to change something in your life for the better.   For example, try saying something like I am going to more faithful to church, and everything that can go wrong on Sunday morning will go wrong on Sunday morning.  Anytime you try to move forward for God, your adversary will try to block you. He knows that the mission of the Gospel could be advanced and he will do anything to stop it.Anytime you try to do something for God, you will face the opposition of the devil.  Mark it down, satan has a bullseye on your back and he has some fiery darts ready to throw at you.  Understanding this is the first step to defeating him in your life and marriage.Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. Ephesians 6: 16Recognize and Fight Him TogetherMy nephews are big-time hunters, they just love to hunt and trap game.  I have seen their traps before. Some are small cages with lure inside and door that drops and traps them.  Others are springloaded foothold traps when the unexpecting animal steps on the trigger and it locks on its foot.  They choose a location, set the trap and come back later to check them.The draw of sex outside of the marriage covenant is the trap of satan.  Those images that tempt a man, are snares of satan to ruin your marriage relationship.  He sets them up on the internet, then he stops be later to see who he has caught. The temptation of flirting with another person is a snare that satan has set to catch you,
