MARITAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE UNMARRIED

TEXT: JOHN 17: 14-15
THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 22nd

Key verse: Jeremiah 29: 11 For I know the thoughts I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Just as Jesus prayed His Father to protect His disciples in this ravenous world, He has also prayed for you that God will not allow the devil to give his daughter to you to marry. He has prayed that God should keep your marital life clean as you listen to His word. This can be done through the word spoken unto you. Your ways are made clean when you take the word of God taught to you. Your ways will be clean and your marriage also will be according to the will of God.  
If you do not marry in the will of God, you are already inhibiting your future. If you are not careful the spouse you marry might become a hindrance to your going to heaven. So let your journey into marriage be according to the will of God. Don’t take wrong marital approach. The people of the world have their own approaches. Don’t follow them.
1. Avoid boyfriend and girlfriend relationship, James 4:4
2. Do not follow parental selection without divine approval, Genesis 24:50
3. Avoid traditional taboos, Matthew 15: 3, Colossians 2: 8
4. Don’t hurriedly marry someone abroad, Proverbs 20:21
5. Don't succumb to contract marriage, 1 Timothy 1: 10
6. Don't elope or run away with an intending marriage partner, Proverbs 28:1
7. Don’t remarry after first scriptural marriage, 1 Corinthians 7: 10-11

Thought for the day: Let him that has ear hear
Song for the day: I have decided to follow Jesus …

Bible reading for the day: Song of Solomon 4-5; 2 Corinthians 13

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
