MARRIAGE GIST: EFFECTIVE PRINCIPLES FOR A LASTING RELATIONSHIP AND MARRIAGE!
Apart from the fact that Christ the Saviour of the whole world (Jesus Christ) must be the peak of your love triangle between you and your partner; certain principles guide you to a happy relationship and marriage. These principles play certain roles by pointing you to either withdraw or proceed with the potential partner. They are effective because they play a vital role or add spices to your relationship and marriage. I would liken it to CHRIST telling you to CHECK out for the following effective principles for your relationship and marriage:
1. PERSONAL CONVICTION: Relationship and marriage are not by force and nobody should force you to accept a contrary opinion to what God is telling you about a particular person. If you are not convinced he or she is not one, there’s no need to tie the knot. You said you are convicted but you are afraid he or she might dump you later, please go to God and be sure. Decisions made in life are crucial to peoples’ lives and they can either make or mar lives. Confirm, reaffirm that he or she is God’s will for your life. Test your spirit, ensure it is not the devil or emotion telling you he is the one. Tarry in God’s presence by submitting totally for clarity. Lack of clarity results to confusion rather seek Christ that gives clarity for conviction in every decision man makes.
2. *COMMUNICATION/COMMITMENT*: Relationship and marriage is not a sole proprietorship but partnership because it requires you and your partner to contribute to the success of your relationship or union. I am not the calling and texting type, my brother you are not ready for a relationship and marriage. I don’t know what to buy and where to buy items for him or her, beg you are stingy. You are not ready for one if you can’t commit yourself to your partner because Commitment involves contributing your time and resources towards the success of the marriage.
3. *YOUR CHARACTER *: Sister, your beauty can bring a man towards you but your character will keep him. Trust me, men of Most High are more interested in your inner beauty. Everyone was wonderfully created by God. Come on, when your man sees you then you become the most beautiful lady or woman on the planet. Sister, invest more in your inner beauty which is your character then the man would have nothing to worry about your physical beauty because he is aware a time would come beauty will fade away but the character still stay. If you neglect your character, your beauty becomes meaningless to such a man.
4. *COMPATIBILITY*: Ensure you are of the same faith which is crucial to your union, the use of physical apparel, make-up etc (spiritual compatibility). Disregard whatever feelings in your stomach when you are not medically compatible. Don’t suffer your unborn children. Both of you must not be a spender because your financial life will be in a problem. If both of you are not financially intelligent, one must be to assist the other.
5. *COMMUNION/CONNECTION*: Many finds a lot of things inappropriate for them to do while neglecting other vital things. Fellowshipping (word, prayer, retreat, conference etc) are good as it helps both of you on your spiritual journey but it must not end there. Come on, you can play games together, sing together, dance together, eat together, read together, visit a museum together and at the same time fulfilling purpose together as partners in a relationship and marriage.
As you put the above write up to good use, may your Relationship/Marriage experience divine bliss & fruitfulness always in Jesus name
