MAKE THINGS RIGHT
So you have relational conflicts in your marriage? Make things right.
Your marriage is full of communication explosives? Make things right.
So, the wife has a valid case of rage against the husband? Make things right.
You stole something from God? Make things right. Make a sacrifice according to the Levitical code.
You have grudges against your spouse? Make things right.
So nobody knows you are harbouring a grudge against your spouse? Make things right.
Your cattle damaged valuable property of your neighbour? Make things right and settle it.
You have problems forgiving your spouse? Make things right.
So you violated your neighbour’s property? Make things right.
So your neighbour’s most valued source of income has been damaged by your carelessness? Make things right.
So your neighbour’s maiden slave was physically molested by someone in your home? Make it right.
So you over-priced an item for your neighbour? Make things right.
So you made a financial deal by embezzling your neighbour? Make things right.
So your son has defrauded your neighbour? Make things right.
So you have defrauded God of tithes and offerings? Make things right.
So you are neglecting to practice hospitality to strangers and neighbours? Make things right

So conflicts in your marriage are not being dealt with? Make things right.
So you fail to manage conflicts with your spouse? Make things right.
So you burst with bitterness against your spouse? Make things right.
So you are losing the battle against malice towards your spouse? Make things right.
Levitical sacrifices were about the ever constant need to resolve! The laws of burnt offerings were about the demand to resolve an outstanding debt! The guilt offerings were about the ever constant demand to settle all debs under the sun. The sin offering was about the ever constant demand to not let debt be accepted as normal. The peace offering was a “Praise the Lord” sacrifice for all settled relational debts.
God was speaking to the children of Israel that all outstanding debts to man and God had to be settled by animal sacrifices. To maintain a relational conflict or a “something” with anyone was abnormal.
“Be angry and sin not.” Anger that is not controlled is always sinful!
“Do not let the sun go down on your wrath.” Unsettled relational conflict is always sinful. Husbands and wives are challenged to establish a personal culture of obeying God. Refuse to postpone settling conflicts. Exhaust reconciliation at all cost.
“Get rid of raging, anger, bitterness, malicious behaviour, etc”. The culture of obedience works towards strategies to remove all the relational cancers: bitterness, wrath, malicious behaviour, and raging. The spouses are challenged to establish a culture of diligent settlement of all relational sins in their marriage. Regularly consult accountability saints to help you establish the culture of “Make things right.”
