May God grant you honor on your wedding day! May honor attend to you throughout your marriage.
So, what’s the deal with honor?
Whatever it is, doesn’t it sound good?
Let’s look at the Bible.
1Sa 2:30b (KJV) but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
The scripture is unequivocal in this regard.
God said, “Honor me, and I will honor you; despise me, and I will lightly regard you.”
Let’s look at another translation for clarity.
1Sa 2:30b (GW) “…I will honor those who honor me, and those who despise me will be considered insignificant.
It indicates that if you do not honor God, you will be deemed insignificant!
That sounds like “ouch!”
The best bet is to just decide to honor God.
So, how do you honor God in your relationship?
Here is one way to do that.
Honour Him in your devotion.
Prioritizing God honors God in your devotion. Do not be careless with your devotion to God. On a daily basis, honor Him in your prayer periods. The key to success is consistency.
Pro 8:17 (KJV) I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
Let us now look to the Passion Translation:
Pro 8:17 (TPT) I will show my love to those who passionately love me. For they will search and search continually until they find me.
As you pursue God in your devotion on a daily basis, as The Passion translation states, God will honor you in return.
How do I know?
His word is unbreakable!
I pray for you this morning, that God will honor you. In Jesus’ name, God will see you as significant.
As you honour Him, God will honor you back on your wedding day and throughout your marriage!
Being Still In A Marriage Love is a wonderful thing when two hearts beat in unison. It is even more powerful when the couple has learnt how to be still!
I’ll be writing about being still today. If you wish to experience God’s majesty and greatness, you must learn to be still. Not necessarily in terms of inaction, but of being silent and admitting God’s lordship. Recognizing that He is Lord of all or Lord of none, and giving Him the proper place He deserves.
The Bible says in Psalm 46:10 KJV, Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.’
I really like the Passion translation (TPT). It says, ‘Surrender your anxiety! Be silent and stop your striving and you will see that I am God. I am the God above all the nations, and I will be exalted throughout the whole earth.’
Being Still In A Marriage
If you want to see and experience God in your marriage, you must let go of your worries and efforts and be calm. I’m not sure what the problem is in your marriage. You’ve been striving and worrying for far too long. You cannot resolve the challenges in your marriage on your own.
Be still today, recognize, and understand that God is Lord. How do you become still?
Through worship and adoration With thankfulness and a glad heart Through the study of the Bible and meditation Declaring the word or making a confession By walking in the spirit. By following His directions.
Being Still In A Marriage
You can start accepting Him as Lord today in your finances, health, misunderstandings with your spouse, every thorny issue with your husband, in-law, children, and so on.
There is a time and season for things to break forth in the spirit realm. When the breakthrough happens in the spirit realm then there will a breakthrough on the earth.
I pray to God to provide us with the necessary strength. In Jesus’ name, God bless your marriage.
You don’t know who God is or what love is unless you have a relationship with Him.
You are unable to love appropriately without God. You will simply lack the ability.
Be cautious of traveling down to meet that individual you hardly know in the name of desperation. It could result in a story of regrets.
Be wary of your ex who appears out of nowhere and requests a time-out. It’s possible that your testimony will be thrown out!
Be wary of the lady you asked out and who has never cooperated since, but now appears in your crib for free.
Sometimes nemesis appears dressed as favour.
How Do You Find Your Soul Mate?
1. The Timing Principle Ecc 3:1 (KJV)
There is a season for everything and a time for everything under heaven:
This signifies that there is a time to start dating.
This also implies that you cannot begin a relationship whenever you desire.
Ecc 3:1 (GNB) Everything that happens in this world happens at the time God chooses.
Finding The Love Of Your Life
God has set out a moment for you. This is what matters.
The idea is that knowing God comes first, and He will then disclose His timeline for your life to you.
God has predetermined your wedding date! Stop wasting time on dating websites; the most important thing is to get to know God!
Then God will reveal His time design for your life.
A fantastic chance can be wasted if your timing is off.
Ecc 3:1 (MSG) There’s an opportune time to do things, a right time for everything on the earth:
Finding The Love Of Your Life
There will come a moment when you will marry. Don’t overlook that moment because amazing opportunities are embedded in God’s timing for your life.
Looking back on how I met my wife, God truly chose a time for me to ask her out because he talked to me about when I should ask her out. God even told me just when I should marry.
I recall God instructing me to marry before the millennium, therefore our wedding took place in November 1999.
And did God come through for us? Massively!
Know God first, singles. God will then speak to you and show you His plans for your life.
And, as you can see, His voice contains the guidance you require right now!
And after the wedding, keep asking God for guidance on every step and decision you will take. That is where success is!
There is a stirring in my heart to see couples who are unwaveringly loyal and committed to each other. When the covenant of marriage is maximized, this is the true meaning of marriage. When two hearts beat in unison.
When partners play games with each other, the power of the marriage relationship is diminished. Couples are to be open, honest, and transparent with one another.
When they are not completely focused on one other and are not on the same page, their strength cannot be amplified.
The Bible says in Ecclesiastic 4:9 (ERV) Two people are better than one. When two people work together, they get more work done.
The KJV translation Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.
God loves oneness. His presence, power, and majesty will be released. God desires that the power of the godhead be mirrored in marriages. He desires that all marriages reflect His glory.
The Godhead are three separate personalities, but they function in flawless harmony. The Godhead is so in sync that they cannot be divided. They think and act in unison.
“The Father commands it, the Son performs it, and the Holy Spirit seals it,” someone says brilliantly.
The marriage covenant is the same way.
The Bible says in Matthew 19:6: ‘So they are no longer two, but one. God has joined them together, so no one should separate them.”
Nothing can separate a pair who are inseparable. We must strive and pray to be faithful to our marriage. That is all we have been asked to do.
Try to stay on the same page as your spouse. Be committed. Until death do us part. It’s a long-term and lifetime commitment.
It’s a heart connection, a knitted heart. Let go of all bitterness. Allow every offense to pass. If you have beef with your spouse, you cannot be one. You cannot be one if you harbor resentment toward your partner. You must purify your hearts and your thoughts towards your spouse. That togetherness MUST be maintained.
Pray that God may knit your heart together with that of your spouse. God bless our union.
As people discover new techniques and methods of investing, particularly in the business world, hundreds of people have literarily become millionaires and billionaires through large profits from investment over the centuries and decades.
A solid investment can turn one’s financial life around, which can affect practically every other aspect of life. A bad investment, on the other hand, can leave you destitute and full of regrets that you may not be able to recover from for the rest of your life.
The key is to know what investments to make, to have the proper information, and to be brave enough to take the move at the right time and invest.
How To Invest In Your Marriage
Similarly, if we spend wisely in our marriage, gathering the necessary information, we will get enormous rewards.
One good transaction in our marriage, and we are receiving the benefits of investment for the rest of our lives, as well as the lives of our children and their children.
Here are some significant investments you can make in your marriage.
It should be noted that investing in one component of your marriage does not ensure gains in other areas.
1. Make an investment of your time
Life’s currency is time. Take care of your marriage. Never ignore your marriage. From a day old marriage to a fifty-year-long marriage, all marriages require time commitment.
Spend time studying and getting to know your spouse. Invest your marriage, and a significant reward will be paid to you. Invest in your marriage for quality rather than quantity.
2. Put your prayers to work
Prayers are about connecting with Divinity and seeking the divine’s assistance in the humane. Every marriage necessitates the investment of prayers. Marriages will always require prayers at various phases. We will all require prayer at some point in our lives.
How To Invest In Your Marriage
3. Understanding
Marriages work because both partners recognize that marriage can be created in heaven but must be lived on Earth. There should be a fundamental understanding of marriage as a covenant and the covenant duties.
4. Belief in God’s Word.
To be successful in everything, especially our lives and marriages, we must make a significant investment in God’s word. (Josh 1:8). The road map to success is provided through God’s word.
In Jesus’ name, may God strengthen us to do His will.
