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

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...
