It's amazing how each month just supersedes each of the previous. Of course as a believer we should always expect that from our Amazing God, especially when we are seeking Him!
I really don't know that I can do justice to the message this month as it was truly an anointed message and one I wish all married couples would seek, hear and act upon.
The basis of this message is shedding light upon the truth that marriage is The Enemy of Satan as it is (or should be) the image of God in this world in unity with the Son and the Holy Spirit!
Marriage was never meant to be just man and woman, but it was from creation God, man & woman joined together in unity. Just as God The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit are 3 in 1 joined together, so it is with marriage as the image of that union~God the creator, the husband (man) as to reflect the Son & the wife (woman) to reflect The Holy Spirit. It was when man and woman rebelled against God's divine plan that began the fall of marriage and life on this earth.
When we don't live life as we were designed to live life then failure is inevitable. And when we claim marriage we become a direct enemy to Satan and he is stealthy to steal, kill & destroy all things that would reflect the image of God. And when we claim to be a christian/follower of Christ it only adds to his purpose to destroy. So, when we do not invest ALL we are in living as God ordains in submission to His Word, Will & Spirit we are simply trying to ignore the real fight hoping Satan is either not real or not interested in us.
Marriage is about living for the betterment of the others you are joined with in unity. God is the Creator and Supreme Authority over all things, Jesus Christ the Son of God was created to serve others and stand in with sacrificial love for his bride and the Holy Spirit was given as The Comforter, Helpmate who exhibits the fruits of the Spirit!
How can we continue to ask God to help us when we are not doing what He asks us to do?
If you want to live in the Paradise He provides then you must live within the boundaries of that paradise!!!
When your marriage is build on The Rock of Christ Jesus, The Authority of God & The Fruit of the Holy Spirit then you WILL have a Marriage that enters Paradise, in this life!
