Part 1 - Why Am I Getting Married Too?

By Pastor 'Deji Adewale

"I DO' - Before & After Series

Family is not a concept of man. It’s God’s plan and He loves families. First established in the garden of Eden, families come about as a result of marriage, union of two separate souls coming together to blend their pasts and create a future.

Though it’s ok to remain single, you’d make heaven but marriage is sooooo beautiful. That is, marriage gotten right.

So, if God is calling you to marry, He wants to join you to someone with whom you can build a strong, godly home, filled with love and grace – a home that exalts Jesus Christ as Lord.

But people get married for lots of reasons, some good, others not so good. Many marriages fail today because the couple does not understand either the purpose or the principles of successful marriage. They simply, lack knowledge.

No one should ever get married without first carefully and clearly answering the question, “WHY?” Deliberate and thoughtful consideration in advance will prevent a lot of problems, heartache, and regret later on.

Knowing why you want to marry can confirm your good decision and help you avoid a bad decision. As we chew over & contemplate getting married, I pray that we follow the Lord’s direction in every aspect, for “heaven-on-earth” homes, in Jesus Name.

You will have good success this 2017.

Remain blessed.

Shalom.
