Marriage Is A Lifelong Relationship
Text: Romans 7:2-3

Sunday 11th January 

Key verse: Proverb 5:18 “Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.”
God is the author of marriage institution. God expects that the relationship in the marriage institution should be for life and not to be truncated in the lifetime of any of the spouses. Our key verse says, “the wife of your youth”, meaning that as you are growing up, be careful who to marry or get married to, because that man or woman will not just come for a while and later be discarded. The scriptures reveal that you are bound with her for a lifetime, which is until one of you dies. Brother, the matter is so demanding that you cannot use her and throw her away. Sister, the institution is so demanding that when you enter into it you cannot abandon it and run away. It therefore means that as you are growing up as a young man, aspiring to get married, know that God wants you to enjoy life with the wife of your youth at all stages of your life, whether at age 30, 40, 60, or even 80, as long as you have the strength; so she is the wife of your youth, except she dies and another one has to come in. Otherwise, it is that one the Lord is talking about.
Any woman outside, apart from this wife of your youth is a stranger. Proverbs 5:20 says “And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?” Why must you embrace the heart and breasts of a strange woman to your own heart? God said that He gave that right only to you on the woman of your youth. Similarly, “My daughter, why would you embrace a strange man and give your heart and your breasts to a stranger; a strange man who is not the husband that married you in your youth in the right sense of marriage?” The emphasis here is that there is no second wife or second husband in marriage as long as your first spouse is alive.

Thought For The Day: If God is behind your marriage, there will be peace and joy.

Song For The Day: Lord give us Christian home…

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
