TO THE MARRIED AND UNMARRIED
1 Corithians 7 vs 9 says but if you can’t control yourself, go ahead and marry. It is better to marry than burn with lust. I say a big yes to that; he that finds a wife findeth a good thing. To be married is to be joined together in holy matrimony; it is a life contract, once signed no going back; for better for worse, for richer for poorer till death do you part. It is a great thing to be married, it is a thing of joy and gladness. To the married you must please each other, the man should give his wife all that is her right as a married woman and likewise the wife should do the same for her husband. A woman has no longer full right to her own body, for her husband then has his right to it; also the husband no longer has full right to his body for it belongs to his wife. So do not refuse these right to each other. All these are written in the bible. It is biblical and so to the married you must do all these.
However, high percentage of the married nowadays does not please themselves, most men still flirt about and around women outside marriage, which shouldn’t be; as a married either a man or women, you shouldn’t do such or be involved in such; it is a sin of Adultery, GOD’s commandment said thou shall not commit adultery. Also, to the married the man comes from a background, the woman comes from another background, you two should join hands together and face the battle; that is why you are one. Two coming together to become one. To every background, there is a battle to fight; and in a battle you are either victorious or defeated. To be victorious you need to draw nearer to the almighty. He said I will fight for and you shall hold your peace. You need GOD more than ever before, the married must serve GOD; no matter your career, job, kids you must , because most married have no time to serve GOD again, you must create time to serve GOD.
Moreover, to the unmarried the bible said spend your time doing the lord’s work and thinking how to please him. An unmarried can be referred to as a youth, he is someone not yet married. Therefore, the unmarried must be useful for GOD and serve him with all their might and strength. If you are youthful, you must be useful for GOD, but it is unfortunate most unmarried have no sensible time for GOD. They prefer to do meaningless things, things that brings no glory to GOD’s name. As a youth, nothing hinders you from serving GOD so why not serve him. Don’t get too excited about things of this world they won’t last, but rather set your affections on things above, not earthly or worldly things. I end this write up with this: To the married please GOD and your man and woman; likewise to the unmarried please GOD and work for him. Stay blessed and don’t forget to share with others…..
WORK ON THE WORD 2! David knew the essence of working on GOD’s word. He wrote in Psalm 33 vs. 4 (NIV): For the word of the LORD is right and true, he is faithful in all he does. He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye. Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24: But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...
