For all those are waiting for their soulmate, this is the good news! The Lord wants to bring a mate to those who will ask Him and have the patience to wait for His Choice. Being single is an important time to prepare us for marriage. It can be also a time to experience a closer communication with God. As we seek God to cleanse us of the world and help us become the kind of wife/husband that would bless someone, we will soon find that we are not lonely.
First, the Lord would begin using us to bless others, then we will find that we are content in Him. Eventually, in God's plan and timing, He will bless us with a wonderful mate so that both can lives, can be a witness for Him. We believe that if a marriage cannot glorify the Lord, then it will be better to remains alone. There are worse thing than being alone.
Marriage the second major choice we make in our lives, and we are should never enter into it without much
prayer. To rush into a marriage can be disastrous. The most important desicion is not a one-time
declaration, but daily determination to follow Jesus
above all. If we allow the emotional or sourish realm to dominate our lives we become more susceptible to the enemy leading us astray through someone. Our emotions need to be cleansed as they are not the signs of love. The true definition of love is "GOD IS LOVE" if God is not in a relationship it is not true love. What this world calls love is really lust since it is built on what the other person does for me, not what i can do for him or her. If the other person fails to keep up his end of the bargain, a divorce occurs because the offended mate is no
longer pleased. This is the attitude of the world's so called "LOVE". God's love loves without receiving back, forgiving and patient, gentle, kind, waits and sacrifice.
Man's emotions are not reliable gauge upon which to establish a marriage relationship. We must know in the spirit that it is God's will, it much better to marry for character than for emotion. Emotions fluctuate, character doesn't. Women or man who allow emotions to rule them will never be victorious christians. Emotion should always follow, never lead!
Marriage in a Christian's life should be based on desicion directed by the Holy Spirit. A christian's love for another is a commitment of course, The Lord will supply the emotions for the mates He sends, but that should not be the criterion for making the desicion to marry. The Lord should be sought, and whatever He speaks to us what we should do. He knows the future and what is the best for us. If we trust Him, He will not fail us in this or any other important area.
many precious people suffer because they are living with unsaved mates. Some did not have Christ when they made their marriage decision, but they have since found the Lord. Those will have God's grace and love to win their mate for Jesus. The Lord always strives to bring the lost mate to himself through the partner who know Him. Mighty miracle of deliverance and salvation have occurred when people have endured suffering in order to bring their mates to the Lord. Those people who have the light, but choose to marry into darkness by yoking themselves to unsaved mates find that their flesh has led them away from God. The Lord wants to bless marriage unions and see His plan fulfilled in both Mates lives. What a glorious plans He had from the beginning for both male and female. We can trust Him in this important decision. If we will totally commit to do His will we will never be dissapointed in the one He sends into our lives.
" GOD KNOWS YOUR ADDRESS AND WILL BRING YOUR MATE TO YOU WHEN YOU ARE BOTH READY, AND NOT BEFORE. YOU ARE JUST WASTING YOUR LIFE IF YOU DATE PERSON AFTER PERSON "
The chance of meeting your partner for life on the very first try is unlikely. You should date, and dont woory about making mistakes. we learn from our mistakes, mistakes help us grow.
