Part 4 – One Flesh, One Purpose

Oneness is not just emotional closeness or physical intimacy — it is purpose alignment. Amos 3:3 asks, “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” Marriage is a covenant for a purpose. God doesn’t just pair people because they look good together; He joins them because their destinies align.

Every godly marriage is a partnership for impact. When two people unite under God, their combined strength becomes a force for His kingdom. They are meant to encourage each other’s gifts, nurture each other’s dreams, and serve a divine cause together.

For singles, this is a call to be intentional. Don’t just seek someone who excites you — seek someone who ignites your purpose. Shared faith, values, and direction matter more than fleeting attraction. The person you marry should not pull you away from God’s plan but propel you toward it.

For the married, staying one in purpose means praying together, planning together, and serving together. It means regularly asking, “Are we still walking in the direction God set for us?” Life’s pressures — children, careers, finances — can easily distract couples from their shared mission. But true oneness stays anchored in divine purpose.

When a husband and wife live as one flesh, united in heart and purpose, their marriage becomes a testimony of God’s wisdom and love to the world. It becomes a living sermon — one that says, “This is what God intended from the beginning.”
