You don’t pack your stuff and start singing songs of divorce when there is a little provocation.

This is what cleaving is.

It is much like your relationship with God.

You are to cleave unto Him and not try to depart when matters seem not to be going your very own way.

Leaving God and refusing to cleave will complicate issues, and that is the same thing in marriage.



You are to cleave for life!



Any attempt to leave is a tearing part that would be painful. 

 

Stay with each other no matter what.

Cleaving means that you are dedicated to each other.



It means sharing with each other on the deepest level.



It means enjoying each other and supplying warmth for yourselves.

Ecc 4:11 (KJV) Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?


I pray that God will grant understanding.


Your marriage will not suffer a crisis.

Your marriage will not lose that godly steam.



I pray that God will pour new wine into your marriage and cause the love between you to come alive!
