TOPIC: KNOWING THE WILL OF GOD IN MARRIAGE

TEXT: PSALM 119:11-16,105 

KEY VERSE: PROVERBS 18:22 Whoso Findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD 

A believer who wants to marry will seek God in prayer. God speaks in a simple language that the hearer will understand but the problem of many people is how to know that God is speaking to them. They desire to come to the point that they know without difficulty that the Lord has spoken or is speaking to them. 

The relationship the believer has with God is as the one a child has with his parents. A new born babe may not discern the voice of the mother but it will not take long before he will become acquainted with the voice of the mother who regularly speaks with him. Therefore, understand the voice of God; how He speaks to you. 

God reveals His will in marriage through the following means: 
God speaks audibly: even till today God may choose to speak audibly to you, to communicate to you his will in marriage. This voice may not be heard by everybody around you but by you only. 

An inner knowledge and understanding: God made Adam to know his will by an inner knowledge in his heart. Adam was not aware of the plan of God to make a woman for him but as soon as he saw the woman, he knew she was his wife. 

Dreams, visions and revelations: in the case of Joseph, God used dreams to convince him of the blessed future He had for him. 

God leads through circumstance: 
God led Saul to Samuel to anoint him over Israel by a circumstance that had no bearing to kingship. 

God leads through inspired counselling: God gave Ruth a husband through inspired counselling. When praying for God`s will in marriage beware of evil counsellors, self-will, stumbling blocks on the way, consequences of immorality and idolatry, complication from unequal yoke in marriage etc. 

When you know the will of God in marriage, contact your pastor and he will direct you to the marriage committee who shall direct you on what to do 

Thought for the day: Pray earnestly when seeking the will of God in marriage. 

Song for the day: Open my eyes oh Lord, halleluiah 2x 

Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 31-32

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...

The Source Of Faith

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. The Source Of Faith  Tuesday 18th March Text: Romans 1:16-17 Key Verse: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 What is the foundation for our faith? The faith of the just man has the following sources, from where it gets its inspiration. The Word Of God: The foundation of the faith of the just, is the word of God.  The word of God is the production room of the faith which the just exercises. The faith of the just has its foundation in what God has said in His word.  Faith seeks for what God has said to stand upon.  Have you seen the promises of God for you, from the word? Have you seen God's message for you, in the scriptures?  Believe it absolutely, and it shall surely come to pass. This will enhance your faith for subsequent needs of your life. “God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, ...
