BIBLICAL TRADITIONS ON MARRIAGE
THURSDAY MAY 4
TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 7: 36 – 38
Key Verse: “And now if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me: and if not, tell me; that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left” Genesis 24: 49
The Biblical pattern shows that the parents of the woman have power to release her for marriage or not to release her to a particular man. That’s the authority of the father and God does not challenge it. God gave it to him. There’s someone that gives and the authority of that man should not be overlooked. You want to marry and you don’t have business with the parent of the lady? Not Christian marriage. The father of that woman has a will over her, to give her to you or not, and God is not charging him, except if there’s a wicked purpose in him. It is his right, don’t play him off, if you do, then you stole her. You stole that woman because the parent were not aware, the parent didn’t give consent you stole her. If you say, you saw the will of God, like those who have not married; we have seen the will of God to a woman and the father of the woman says, I am not giving you; You may say, ‘forget what he’s saying’. Don’t forget it. Take that matter to God in prayer, if that is the will of God.
“The heart of the wicked is in the hand of the Lord” how much more the heart of the righteous and of the common man; “as rivers of water He turneth it to whithersoever He wills.” Take it to God and let Him change that man’s heart. If God promised you that woman, He will surely give you. He will go and work on the heart of the man. God will not go through the window; you come to buy something in a store, the man is not there, God climbs through the window into the provision store and say take? There’s no unrighteousness with God, He commands the man to exercise his will, He will appeal to the will of that man just pray to God. In case you pray very well, and the man did not change or hear, that marriage is not the will of God. Abandon it and move forward. “Ask anything according to my will and I will do it” This is the confidence we have in Him that when we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. When we know that He hears us, whatsoever we ask we receive the answer from Him
Thought for the day: Parental consent is a vital requirement for scriptural marriage.
Song for the day: Trust and Obey, For there ‘s no other way.
Bible reading for the day: 1 Kings 8-9; Luke 23:39-56

August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
