Defining Marriage

Faith for the Family

Dec 4, 2012 

If you are in a challenging place in your marriage and have contemplated giving up; before you make a decision...think on these things:

"HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT"....How bad do you want your spouse? How bad do you want their heart? How bad do you want your marriage to endure every test, trial and tribulation?

If you really want it and you really want to please The Lord through your marriage, meditate on the following scriptures; to begin re-teaching yourself the reason for Marriage - from God's heart!

(Ecclesiastes 4:9)
Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. (KJV)

*We as individuals are laboring but when there is two, there is a good reward for it…We can do more in unity, with help; than we can alone!

(Gen 2:18)
And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

Meet - adjective 1.suitable; fitting; proper.

*we, the wives were suitably, fitting & properly created to help our spouse*

(Genesis 2:21-25 KJV)
And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

*Be One (Unity, one Reflection, one Mind), Naked (Unguarded, Transparent, Free) & Unashamed (Bold, Shameless, Un-self Conscious) with your spouse...

(Genesis 3:4, 5 KJV)
And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

*In the beginning Satan had two agendas and he still does to this day:
1. Steal the word of God from you, by perverting it and twisting it to make you doubt God
2. To destroy the covenant of marriage, through the weaker vessel. The serpent went to Eve first, by making her doubt the Words of God. So instead of guarding her husband from falling, she is the one responsible for his fall. SELAH (pause and think about that)!

May The Lord give us a deeper revelation into His words and cause us to get in our rightful positions in our marriages! Let us take our definition of marriage from the truth, which is the word of God and not from the world and satan; the father of lies...

Stay Encouraged, Stay Blessed and Always be a blessing!

Prayer and Daily Affirmation for Men of Purpose...

Father God, in the name of Jesus give me a Heart to know, Eyes to see and ears to hear what the Spirit of the Lord is saying! Lord Jesus Christ, give unto ME the spirit of Wisdom and Revelation in the Knowledge of You: Shine Your light Lord and Enlighten the eyes of MY Understanding; that I may know what is the hope of Your calling, and what the riches of the glory of Your inheritance is in ME, And what is the exceeding greatness of Your power toward ME who believes, according to the working of Your mighty power, Which Father God You wrought in Christ, when You raised him from the dead, and set him at Your own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: (Based from Ephesians 1:17-21)!

PUT ON THE ARMOR OF GOD

I WILL be Strong in the LORD, and in the POWER of HIS Might, As Today I Put on the WHOLE Armor of God, so that I WILL Stand Against the whiles of the enemy, my enemy and my inner enemy! For I wrestle NOT against flesh and blood, BUT against {principalities}, against {powers}, against {the rulers of the darkness of this world}, against {spiritual wickedness in high [places]}. I WILL Stand therefore, having My Loins Girt about with TRUTH, and having on the Breastplate of RIGHTEOUSNESS; And My feet SHOD with the PREPARATION of the Gospel of Peace; ABOVE ALL, I Take the SHIELD of FAITH, wherewith I WILL quench ALL the fiery darts of the wicked. And I take the helmet of SALVATION, and I take the SWORD of the SPIRIT, which is the WORD of GOD: Praying ALWAYS with all Prayer and Supplication in the SPIRIT, and Watching thereunto with ALL Perseverance and Supplication for ALL saints; AND for ME, that Utterance WILL be given unto ME, that I WILL open MY mouth BOLDLY, to make KNOWN the mystery of the GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST, For which I AM an AMBASSADOR of GOD through JESUS CHRIST: that therein I WILL speak BOLDLY, as I OUGHT to Speak and COMPLETE Your Will for MY Life Today!

WHO ARE YOU

I AM

I AM a Man of Strength! I AM the Head of MY House and As for Me and My House, we WILL serve the LORD! I AM a KING & I will NOT...GIVE My Strength...to a Woman or My Ways to a Woman which Destroys Kings! I will NOT Give Myself to Wine or Strong Drink to Pervert My Judgment! When I Open MY Mouth I JUDGE RIGHTEOUSLY! I AM a Man after GOD'S Own Heart! I AM a Man of GODLY WISDOM, UNDERSTANDING & KNOWLEDGE! MY Heart SAFELY Trusts in my Wife! I have NO need of Spoil or Dishonest Gain! I AM a Man with the Matt 10:8 anointing! I AM Known in the Gates! I Sit Among the Elders of the Land! I Call my Wife Blessed and I Praise Her with MY Lips! I AM a Man of GOOD Courage! I AM a Provider and I Provide for MY House! I Work WILLINGLY with MY Hands! The Lord has Put HIS Words in MY Mouth! The Lord HAS Set Me Over Nations and Over Kingdoms! I Have Been Sent to Root Out, To Pull Down, To Build and To Plant! I AM a Man of PURPOSE and DESTINY! All that God has placed in My Hands to do ARE Completed! I AM a Man of Wealth! I AM a Man of Integrity and Honor! I am NOT Lazy! I AM a Man of Honesty! I AM a Man of Favor! Above ALL, I AM a Man of Faith {Eph 6:16}! I Serve the Lord with GLADNESS and MY WHOLE HEART! I AM a Man of GOD and I SEEK Direction from GOD, for My Family! I Raise up Sons of God! I Raise up Daughters of God! I Fear the Lord God of My Salvation!
