GOD HAS MADE MARRIAGE HONOURABLE
TEXT: Matthew 19: 4-6
Key verse:  Hebrews 13:4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. 

Marriage was the first institution made by God after the creation of Adam and Eve. God made the woman for the man and joined them together. It was God that joined them together and united them together and said that union should not be tampered with. Let no man put asunder that which God has united. Marriage is honourable before God. The time and place where their marriage occurred show how honourable it was. It took place to befall the fall. Before sin came into their lives, there was marriage. What an honourable thing! Before Satan came to pollute the world, there was marriage and family life. So, it is a thing so great that God will want all of us to honour. The marriage of Adam and Eve was holy before the fall of man. 

Now, Jesus also honoured marriage. You will see that He illustrated this in a parable that talked about a wedding feast that people normally attend in those days. People that attend wedding feasts usually wore special attires because they were specially invited and given uniforms. So, Jesus was illustrating that marriage was something central in the heart of God. Now even when Jesus was on earth, He attended a marriage feast. Jesus and His disciples were invited to the marriage and He came there. The God of heaven created marriage at the beginning, being in the form of God, He instituted marriage. Now God became man and went to a marriage feast. The place of marriage in the heart of God is central and a marriage feast, therefore, is for the glory of Jesus.

In the marriage feast in Cana of Galilee, Jesus manifested His glory. He went to that wedding and was glorified there. Our marriages should glorify Jesus. Our marriages should be a setting for God's glory to be manifested. Have it in your mind, if you are not yet married, but see that God will be glorified in your marriage from the beginning to the end of it and this can be done when there is righteousness and holiness in all facets.

Thought for the day: The place of marriage in the heart of God is central 
Song for the day: He loves me I cannot say why
Bible reading for the day:  Isaiah 31-33; Philippians 1

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
