MARRIAGE – A COVENANT OF GRACE AND BLESSEDNESS

MARRIAGE – A COVENANT OF GRACE AND BLESSEDNESS: A CALLING TO INHERIT A BLESSING AND FULFIL GOD’S PURPOSE!

“Whoso FINDETH a wife FINDETH A GOOD THING, and obtaineth FAVOUR of the Lord” Proverbs 18:22

Your MARRIAGE is BLESSED and not CURSE – when you see it from the EYES of the SCRIPTURES and not from the EYES of MAN-MADE TRADITION, SECTARIANISM and DENOMINATIONALISM and such like. For the Scripture says from the beginning that God intentionally BLESSED them – male and female. Marriage is BLESSED and EMPOWERED, and none in the marital Scriptural stand of God is cursed. It’s your choice to believe God’s word or to allow circumstances and society and others define your stand in marriage – knowingly and unknowingly.

“And God said, Let us MAKE MAN in our image, after our likeness: and let THEM have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God CREATED he him; MALE and FEMALE created he them. 28 And God BLESSED THEM, and God SAID unto them, Be FRUITFUL, and MULTIPLY, and REPLENISH the earth, and SUBDUE it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth” Genesis 1:26-28.

For marriage it’s a covenant of grace; and much more, a CALLING of God in Christ Jesus stead to INHERIT the BLESSING of God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus – as heirs who shares in the common grace of life and godliness; and whose PRAYERS are and can be effectual without obstruction and unhindered by any means as they live unreservedly and intentionally in scriptural consciousness.

“Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to KNOWLEDGE, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being HEIRS together of the grace of life; that your PRAYERS be not HINDERED . . . 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise BLESSING; knowing that ye are thereunto CALLED, that ye should INHERIT A BLESSING” 1 Peter 3:7, 9.

God MADE marriage, as such, only by Him through His WORD it does work to the fulness in life and grace. In God, your marriage is good and blessed and not curse. Get your marriage CONNECTED and SYNCHRONIZED with God in Christ Jesus stead and not to religion sectarianism and denominationalism and such like. Begin now to see your marriage and marital relationship from the perspective of God in order to obtain and actualised your promised favour and to inherit your blessed BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . 7 As being HEIRS together of the GRACE of LIFE; that your PRAYERS be not HINDERED. 8 Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, LOVE as BRETHREN, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise BLESSING; knowing that YE ARE thereunto CALLED, that ye should INHERIT a BLESSING. 10 For he that will LOVE life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: 11 let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. 12 For the EYES of the Lord are over the righteous, and his EARS are open unto their prayers: but the FACE of the Lord is against them that do evil” 1 Peter 3:1-12.

“SUBMITTING yourselves one to another in the FEAR of God. 22 Wives, SUBMIT yourselves unto your OWN husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25 Husbands, LOVE your wives, even as Christ also LOVED the church, and GAVE himself for it; 26 that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 that he might present it to himself a GLORIOUS church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: 30 for we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband” Ephesians 5:21-33.
