MARITAL GUIDANCE AND INSTRUCTION FOR CHRISTIAN YOUTHS

God bless you for taking the time to study. 

MARITAL GUIDANCE AND INSTRUCTION FOR CHRISTIAN YOUTHS

TEXT: EPHESIANS 4:17-25 

TUESDAY FEBRUARY 14th

Key verse: Proverbs 18:22 “Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD”
It is the desire of God for His children to marry according to His will. God is aware that the whole world lieth in wickedness. We are not of the world and the world hates the righteous; therefore, it will be wrong to pick any woman you see for a wife or get married to any man you see. It is God that gives husband or wife. Proverb 10:22 “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.” Don’t do it carnally by getting into a relationship with the opposite sex that may defile you. Avoid erotic play that arouses evil thoughts. Depend on God for He alone knows the partner that matches you.
Be born again and check-up for hypocrisy on the other party. If the person refuses to be born again, don’t claim you will convert him or her. Parents should not force somebody on their child. Where there is resistance from the woman’s parents pray for God to permit but if it persists, God is not there. Don’t marry by correspondence (internet, phone call, pictures), for documentation or contract marriage. Don’t elope (run away) with a love-partner. Don’t marry a divorcee. Allow the church to check it up first. Don’t be hasty without obeying the rules. Control your appetite and get the best from God. Church barrier should not stop marriage in God’s will. Maturity is required in age, work and preparation.
Understand God’s method of communicating answers to your prayer. Some dreams may be true. Inner witness can come: a voice speaking to you, giving you assurance. It can also come by divinely arranged circumstance. Prophesy can come: God can give a message through somebody else to you (this does not stand alone, for it either confirms existing things or other messages), take it to God. It must give you peace or else it is not of God. Seek counsel from matured and holy believer (in HOREMOW direct your proposal to Pastor or marriage committee).  

Thought for the day: Marriage according to God’s will gives peace and joy

Song for the day:  Just obey, is the way, God’s way.

Bible reading for the day: Leviticus 18-19; Matthew 27:32-66

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
