Jesus, I Want to Love You Part 3

DAY 6 OF 7

Read today's Bible references, then read below.

ONENESS AND COVENANT

There are two options today: 1) if you are married, and 2) if you are single. Marriage is an outward picture of our oneness with the Lord. It is an example of how wonderfully close the relationship is between God and those who belong to Him. The picture of the covenant between Christ and the church is found in the marriage covenant.

Be marriage-minded and think about what it could look like in day-to-day life with your spouse if you really focused on living out oneness in your marriage. I have started the first one for you. (Talk together if you are married and discuss how you could implement one or two of the following.)

ONE in Christ: Reading God’s Word, praying together on a daily basis for those the Lord has placed in your lives.

The two become ONE:

ONE because of Christ:

ONE for Christ:

Submit to ONE another:

Why is understanding oneness and covenant so important? It is the key to unity. The enemy hates our unity in Christ because it so beautifully reflects and glorifies the Triune God, three in one. Division, enmity, and disillusionment are of the devil. He wants to destroy our covenant bond. It can happen very subtly. Division begins with a thought, a critical and unforgiving spirit, or a wandering or selfish heart. Are your activities and energies during the week building oneness in your marriage? Are you for your husband or are you against him? Are you harboring any critical, divisive, or unforgiving thoughts? Allow the Lord to search your heart.

Make plans for a special night.

If you are single, spend special time with the Lord. Praise and thank Him for being your Husband and your Covenant King. Confess any sin in your heart, areas in which you haven’t cleaved to the Lord fully and are focusing too much on your singleness and not enough upon being the Lord’s bride. Thank God for the gift of His son and for the gospel.

If you are married, plan a special in-home date for you and your husband. Prepare yourself inside and out. Before the evening, go before the Lord in prayer. Specifically ask God to search your heart to see if there is anything you are doing that is breaking oneness between you and your husband. After you have prepared inwardly, plan on how you will prepare yourself outwardly. Now what will you do? Will it be dinner? Will it be dessert? Just a snack? In the dining room? In the living room? In your bedroom? Have fun!
