The Power of Marriage
Marriage is a covenant relationship ordained by God created to empower and bless us - and when that covenant bond is honoured, marriage has great power.
The definition of marriage is a hot topic lately. Over recent centuries, divorce rates have escalated and generational fallout has been devastating. Many people have become disillusioned with marriage.
If you are married, do you want to strengthen your marriage? Or perhaps you haven't found the right person, yet are nervous about marriage because of the high failure rate. Successful marriage takes commitment and effort but the rewards are great and they are generational.
Building a strong marriage is a daily decision. Resolve to sort out issues of disagreement quickly, speak words of life to one another - don't tear each other down with your words. Finally, be committed to your partner's success because you will reap the benefits. Your support will build intimacy and fulfiment.
One of the main ingredients of a great marriage is unity and agreement. The three key areas are being united in love for one another, love for God and love for His House, the Church.
If you are married, stop for a moment and think about what practical things you can do to strengthen your relationship. Is there some area of disagreement between you? Make the decision to sit down and discuss it calmly together as a united team, not opponents.
If you are thinking about marriage, make a commitment to building a godly character and ask God to help you with your choice for a life partner.
PRAYER: Father God, thank You for marriage. Help me be the best partner I can be and give me the grace to rise above areas of disagreement to find unity, in Jesus' Name.
