If You Love God…You Must Love Your Spouse

I knew a man who had several wives and many lovers.

When asked of him what was the cause of the ruination of his many relationships, his answer always pointed the finger at the many women in his life. Fault never fell on his shoulders. Even to the point he fabricated lies that he could no longer keep straight in his own head!

The Old Testament teaches us of God’s Commandments, which includes God’s Law against bearing false witness, Covetedness, adultery and killing (murder).

As he recanted how each relationship dissolved, which always had an overlapping story of another woman entering his life during the midst of his current marriage or relationship (until he would subsequently also replace her), I looked at him in the midst of his oblivion to what he was actually revealing about himself as those Commandments ran like a movie streaming back-and-forth across my mind.

As he professed his belief and Love of God, I was struck by his disregard for God’s Word and lack of commitment to abiding by what he swore to be the cornerstone of his life!

His ability to toss a human soul about and dump it as if trash, only revealed his lack of Love for God, despite the words that proceeded from his mouth.

The sanctity of marriage is not to be toyed with if we are true believers in Christ. Christ Himself admonishes husbands to love their wives as they Love the church and He IS THE CHURCH!

People today marry and divorce changing spouses and engaging in adultery as if there are no consequences for their acts! They have been deceived by those who themselves do not truly serve God with their heart and soul, and made to believe that marriages/spouses are expendable and interchangeable.

Brothers and sisters do not be deceived by Satan! He is the architect of all lies and it is a lie to believe that you can divorce your spouse (except on the grounds of adultery/infidelity) and not face God’s consequences. If you believe in The Father, then His Word is true and His directives against divorce are in both the Old and New Testaments. A true believer knows that and will adhere to it. An unfaithful follower will not!

Stay the course. Finish your race. Uphold your vows and work out your marriage differences without outside interference and divorce.

Watch and See how God blesses your marriage, your life, and your family for your obedience. He deserves no less!

Lord, help me to convey Your Truth so that others will be blessed and their Christian walk strengthened by the hearing of Your Word! Amen 🙏🏽

Guided Out Of The Darkness By His Light

Just as God blesses us from the darkness of our sleep into the dawning of a new day, He is more than able to bring us out of the darkness of our trials and tribulations through fasting and praying into His Marvelous Light!

For through faith we can move mountains and obstacles that hinder our maturity in The Word.

Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen! Our faith in God will manifest in the seen world that which we desire. If we desire that God bring us out, through consistency in our prayer life and walk, He will do just that! For God’s Word guides us, instructs us, teaches us, prepares us, and seasons us for all periods in our life and how we are to handle them, no matter how painful that period might be!

If you are dealing with hardship, troubles and trials, do not lose hope but exercise your faith in God to bring you out of the darkness of your situation into His Marvelous Light! For it is there where life anew, joy, peace and a happiness that only God can provide lives and is free for the asking to His children, Amen!

Lord we thank You for the ability to call upon Your name in good times and in bad. We thank You for never giving up on us or abandoning us. We know that in You we find a joy that the world can’t take away because You alone are it’s source! In Jesus Christ’s Mighty Name. Amen 🙏🏽

Today

As you start today, may the light of God illuminate your path.

May God’s wisdom guide your every step and may you know peace in all decisions you take.

May you be empowered to foresee and actualise every beautiful plan that God has for you. May the mercy of God go forth and speak for you.

May God channel your steps into victory. May His Will for your life take you beyond your present level so that you may increase on every side.

I pray that ALL hindrances to your success be crushed by fire in Jesus Christ’s Mighty Name! Amen.

A Wellspring That Never Runs Dry

When you feel as though you can’t go on, talk to the source of our strength!

When those you love have mistreated you and there are no words to express your pain, go to God and tell Him all about it. He will take action on your behalf.

Never put your trust in man, he is human, flighty, will fail you and leave you alone. Only God is faithful until the end. Only God will never fail you. Only God ensures that you never walk alone. Hallelujah!

Thank You Lord For…

Thank You Lord 🙏🏽🙌🏽 for Your daily portions that feed my soul, strengthen my spirit, calm my worries and provide peace in the raging storm.

Thanksgiving flows from my heart and through my mouth for all that You have done for me and my loved ones.

From the womb to the tomb, You are near to those who draw near to You! I praise You Father and thank You for who You are in our lives. Amen 🙏🏽
