GOD’S EXPECTATIONS IN CHRISTIAN MERRAIGE
April Saturday 21st
Text: Proverbs 5:18-21
Key Verse: Proverbs 5:21 For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.

In our reading text, the bible tells us about some functions and expectations in marriage.

1. God wants you to enjoy each other. Proverbs 5:19 Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love. God wants you to satisfy each other - to enjoy each other's love and be satisfied with each other’s body. You are not together for procreation only but also for pleasure. Husband and wife must take pleasure in love making and not see it as spiritually unhealthy a sinful thing to do. It is part of God’s plan for marriage. 

2. Divorce is not an option in marriage. Pro 5:18  Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. “The wife of your youth” indicates that both of you are bound from youth till old age. Therefore, be careful who you marry, because once you do, you cannot get out of it. This is why it is necessary to follow biblical process of marriage and allow God to lead you to your marriage partner. For singles, listen to the message: FROM KNOWING THE WILL OF GOD TO WEDDING by Pastor Paul Rika for thorough guidance.

3. Extramarital affair is forbidden. Proverbs 5:20 And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger? Any woman outside the bride of your youth is a strange woman. Those who lie with strange women are unwise. Proverbs 6:28-29 Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? 29  So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.

4. Let love rule your marriage. Ephesians 5:33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband. In Christian marriage, money and childbearing are secondary issues. Lack of any should not diminish the love for each other. Ill health may be a challenge, but this is the best time to show true love because this is the time your ailing partner needs you most.

Thought for the day: Make your marriage an example for others to emulate.
Song for the day: Christian walk carefully.
Bible reading for the day:
2Samuel 1-3; Luke 18:1-17

For taking your time to study remain blessed. 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...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
