The
success of any marriage is dependent on the foundation of picking or choosing a
partner, according to
Psalm 11:3::
if the foundation be destroyed what can the righteous do?
If
the foundation of your marriage was built on sexual attractions it will fail
So
many people equate love as a sex and are bothered about sexual compatibility
Marriage
is far beyond the physical it is a covenant and this covenant was instituted by
God
Finding means after a deliberate search: and the Bible says except God watches' the watch man watches in vain, For vain is the help of man. So many people depend totally on the intellect, feeling and many material things in picking a partners, this has lead to the notion that says IT IS BETTER TO CRY IN A RANGE ROVER OR BENZ THAN BE HAPPY TREKKING
Marriage
is so important that is interested
Genesis
2:18 KJV
And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him
Divine
direction secures happiness
When
direction is out of place confusion is the order of the day
Most
times a lot of people allow their ambition and comparison cause to them ignore
the leading of God
Daddy
E.A ADEBOYE shared on his 79th birthday celebration
:
He said marry not because of how rich your suitor appears or how beautiful she is
but marry because of love and the leading from God
He
continued, he said he met his wife when he was in school, and then his rivals
were people who have cars and all, bit He told His wife to be that I don't have
anything , but what I will have all will be yours
And
she got married to Him not minding his financial state then, now what in this
world that she wants He can't afford
Another
striking one was from My Father David Ibiyeomie: He approached the lady and
asked to marry her , she laughed and said David Even u, chai I don suffer, bit
Mummy Peace Ibiyeomie listened to God and saw beyond now and married Him
because God said so, married to him with a fan not even oscillating, but now
sleeps in A.C
It
is only people who lack faith in God that compares a there spouse to someone
If
God directs you to a man or woman, He makes provision for the marriage
:
Who God has ordained u to marry or love He will authorize u to understand
Never
ignore the instructions or leading of God as regards marriage choice, because
the end is not funny
God created you and know you, so anyone He gives u accept.
You
might say
I
love woman with big bombom, but God is showing u the small bombom, u say no
Remember
at the raw state if Gold u will never like it, but its finished product is
amazing
:
Drop your philosophy and believes and follow Gods Leading
Too
many Analysis leads to paralysis- David Ibiyeomie Quote
:
*How to Get Divine Leading*
1) The Word of God: it is from the word of God
that forms your believe, (Joshua 1:8) Locate relevant Scriptures as regards
marriage
2)
Prayer( Prayers of Enquiries): *Mathew 7:7* ( prayer is not a call to
punishment, it is communicating with God on His words and based or your
relationship with him. Prayer is an essential tool for getting Divine Direction
(E.g.: Holy Spirit show me the man, the woman u have ordained for me to get
married to, open my eyes to see him or her, (1Corinthians 2:9-10) Never neglect
prayers
3)
Praying in Tongues( Jude 1:20) pray in tongues for God to show u
4)
Praise and Worship
5)
Obedience to Gods instruction
6)Faith
*Hindrances*
1)
Pride
2)
Comparison
3)
unhealthy competition, flamboyant standards
4)
Disobedience/ Doubts
5)
Sin
6)
Total dependency on man and the your intellect
:
Finally Note
Every
Good and perfect gifts come from the lord, and a Prudent wife and spouse is of
the Lord,
Never
depend on your choice for a partner but of God
:
Importantly u might be with someone and that is not Gods plan for u, not every
good boyfriend or girlfriend will make a good spouse, so even if u are in a
relationship pray and Ask God to show u
Is
my prayer none of us miss His leading and all of us will be sensitive as not to
miss it in Jesus name Amen
