The marital choice must be approached prayerfully because it has great consequences on your future. Two are better than one the Bible says, but they are better if they married in the will of God  (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12).

Today, many people feel you can just pick any random person and marry. This is not the kind of marriage that God expects of a child of  God. We must remember that God expects a dividend from every Christian marriage, and it is that they may produce godly seeds. Seeds that the  Bible called the heritage of the Lord and reward to the marital institution (Malachi 2:15, Psalms 127:3-5).

Another principle we want to establish today is purity before and in marriage. We live in a world where it is permissible for young people to indulge in sexual immorality all in the name of dating.

Because he said he will marry you does not give him access to your body. Remember that your body belongs to God and is a member of Christ,  therefore anyone who pollutes the temple of God shall be judged (1  Corinthians 3:16-17; 6:18-19).

A premarital sexual relationship is not acceptable in Christian marriage. The world system may allow it but it is a sin before God. You must not allow the culture of your land and the decay of the present world to pitch you against the will of God.

Contrary to popular opinion, God’s word remains the anchor for the  Christian marriage. Heaven and Earth may pass away but God’s word abides forever.

Before you enter into marriage, you must understand that marriage is for life. There is no divorce in Christian marriage. That is why we have been warned against unequal yoking with unbelievers.

When two people come together in marriage, the Bible says that they become one flesh (Genesis 2:24). If or when you separate one from the other, they certainly will be malfunctioning wherever they find themselves. Have you noticed that people who are divorced never seem to have an end to remarriage? They keep looking for completeness when their half had been left incomplete.

One of the reasons why marriages fail today is because men no longer follow the pattern laid down by the owner of the institution I.e God.

Marriage was designed by God and must be approached by godly principles. Remember, it was God who said it is not good for the man to be alone, and He was the one who brought the woman to Adam (Genesis  2:18, 22). God still does this today for His children who want His perfect will for their lives.

We are going to consider the first principle as seen in our text and reading of the day. No unequal yoking – don’t marry an unbeliever or a  nominal Christian. Some people excuse themselves by saying, I will change him or her. That is not true. People who have said that before you have burnt their fingers in regret.

God is indeed the rewarder of those who trust Him wholeheartedly.

Radical faith in God has always produced great blessings. In the case of Abraham, it was a Covenant Blessing.

When God asked Abraham to sacrifice his only son, He had a provision in place. He only wanted Abraham to trust in Him completely. God has also prepared a generational covenant blessing for Abraham on the condition that he exhibits the kind of faith that none other have.

When you are being tested, it is not because God wants to punish you as His child. God is preparing something great for you. The Bible says that when we endure temptation, He will give us a crown of life (James  1:12). Also, you must trust Him that He will bring you out safely.
