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

UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
