MARRIAGE – MARITAL RELATIONSHIP: IT’S A CALLING IN GRACE WITH FAVOUR AND BLESSEDNESS!
“Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous; 9 not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary BLESSING, knowing that you were CALLED to this, that you may INHERIT A BLESSING” 1 Peter 3:8-9.
Being married to the one you love and loving the one you marry – it’s a GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL place to be, in order to obtain and enjoy the promise FAVOUR and BLESSEDNESS when you found your spouse. This is as written:
“Whoso FINDETH a wife findeth a GOOD thing, and obtaineth FAVOUR of the Lord” Proverbs 18:22.
Therefore, are you MARRIED? If YES – Know for good that you are CALLED to INHERIT A BLESSING – that is, as being heirs together in the sharing of the common GRACE of life in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. 1 Peter 3:7-12. Marriage in Christ Jesus stead and stand is not a CURSE thing; and it’s no longer a CURSED as in Adam and Eve when you hold and uphold the context of the New Creation SCRIPTURAL TRUTH of the Holy Writ.
In REDEMPTION, Christ Jesus has REDEEMED and RESTORED the marital BLESSEDNESS of God that enriches all. Your MARRIAGE is not a CURSE affair and it’s not CURSED to become one – (Romans 5:12-21; Galatians 3:13-14, 26-29); but rather it’s a place of BLESSING and BLESSEDNESS – to INHERIT a BLESSING. 1 Peter 3:7-12.
Whatever you are seeing or watching from a grandstand on marital stands or you are knowingly living and experiencing any marital difficulties and challenges could be due to both or one the spouse ignorance or stupidities or foolishness, in the scriptural marital context. And that doesn’t necessarily make God’s WORD and STAND, inoperative and ineffective and impracticable. That’s why I teach people that you might marry by love, but you can’t LIVE and SUSTAIN marriage by just LOVE – only by being built by WISDOM – KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING of the scriptural context of marriage in God’s WORD rather than being built up on mundane things – that are limited and subject to failure because of human factors outside God’s scriptural context. For it’s written:
“WISDOM is the PRINCIPAL thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy GETTING get UNDERSTANDING” Proverbs 4:7.
“GOOD UNDERSTANDING giveth FAVOUR: but the way of TRANSGRESSORS (IGNORANT, STUPIDITY AND FOOOLISHNESS) is HARD (DIFFICULT, HEARTBREAKING, CHALLENGING)” Proverbs 13:15 Emphasis Mine.
Henceforth, be RESOLVE with a change hearts towards your spouse today and everyday in everyway. It’s what you PICTURE in the light of the scriptures and scriptural context in marriage and marital status, that becomes your marital FUTURE. The REDEMPTION DEED OF CHRIST, DID it all for you and all, to share in God’s GRACE and BLESSEDNESS in Him.
Therefore, I say to you and all: Stay BLESSED! Remain BLESSED!! And BLESSED regards in everyway in Christ Jesus stead in God’s BLESSEDNESS. Amen.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
