Why you must invest SO MUCH PRAYER in Choosing who to Marry.

Advice from an ELDER BROTHER!

Philippians 4:6

 

It’s necessary to invest so much prayer in choosing a Life Partner because:

1. If for example you studied a course in the university or any institution of higher learning and afterwards don't like the course, you can change by starting a new one, but in Christian Marriage you cannot do that. Once in the institution till death you are there, because you leave the marriage for any reason you are disobeying God!

2. When you miss it in marriage, you have lost 50% of your ministry, to be frank; you don't have a ministry if you miss it in marriage, because marriage is a ministry and a major ministry.

3. If you miss it in marriage, it’s enough problem for the devil to engage you in, you will spent the time, energy and other necessary resources you need for ministry to manage the troubles such marriage will be posing.

4. Marriage is a York and if you enter a wrong one you will surely will bruises, because you two will be heading for different directions all the time.

5. “Two are better than one” (Ecclesiastes 4:9) is a mystery that you cannot see with the natural eyes, it is spiritual and if you must see and understand what it really mean, you must unveil in the place of prayers.

So; before your enter marriage, ensure you invest so much prayer!

  Don’t Go By Your Feelings God gave you feelings and you should never be ashamed of them. They can alert you to danger and give you insights into various situations.

One counselor says: ‘When old feelings creep back in we feel fearful, ashamed, hopeless, not good enough, unloved, victimized, helpless and resentful… An event can trigger these reactions … ending a relationship, stress, problems at work and at home, times of change or illness … and sometimes these feelings return for no reason.’ So you must ‘test your feelings’ , otherwise you’ll end up living … ‘a life shaped by things and feelings instead of by God’ (Colossians 3:5 TM). It can be disastrous to act on what you see, hear and feel. Instead of reacting to feelings, you must learn to act on what God’s Word says. That...

    BLESSED ARE THE PURE IN HEART Text: Matthew 5:5-8; Hebrews 12:14 “Blessed are the pure in heart for they will see God” Matthew 5:8 The statement in Matthew 5:8 was spoken by our Lord Jesus Christ as part of what is called the Beatitudes among “the Sermon on the Mounts”. Here Jesus was addressing not only His disciples but also the multitude of people who gathered to hear what He, Christ, had to say about the heavenly Kingdom. There are two issues raised in the statement. First, the purity of heart , and second, the issue of seeing God at last. These two thoughts are reiterated in Hebrews 12:14. It is thus clear that except a man is holy, he cannot make heaven or see God. A number of deductions can be made from the two texts referred to. One, God expects that our hearts be made pure in order to see Him on the last day. But how can the heart be made pure – the heart described in Jeremiah 17:9 as “deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked …” Two, He c...
