We want to add the following for you to consider, as it pertains to your marriage, when you listen to the message of this song:
Are you faithful to the vows you promised your spouse and God on your wedding day? Or are you just coasting (or fighting) along, trying to make life work for you, forgetting that “whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” As it says further in God’s word, “Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God –even as I try to please everyone in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved” (1 Corinthians 10:31-33).
Please realize that marriage is not all about you. It is a living testimony of Christ’s love for the church. It is a way of God working in us and through us as husband and wife to give and show our love to love God, to give and show our love and God’s love to each other, and in doing so, to give and show our love and God’s love to others. What message are you conveying and living out within your marriage — within your community, and within your home for your children to embrace?
Look at your priorities. “How important is your spouse and your marriage to you? As mature grownups we need to realize that our priorities and our actions give us the honest answer to this question. We should also realize that our children are catching more than they are being taught. In other words, your actions are teaching them what we really believe and what we say means much less when the actions don’t match the words. Start nurturing your marriage… before it is too late…” (Quote from Agrownupmarriage.com article titled, “Children Catch More Than They Are Taught”)
“May the Lord direct your heart into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.” (2 Thessalonians 3:5)
“And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ — to the glory and praise of God.” (Philippians 1:9-11)
(USA) Let’s believe God to guide us daily in ways to build and stregthen our marriages. I pray that this year will be one filled with growth and favor in our hmes. That we would see the power of God work through our prayer and faith and faithfulness. Let us seek out ways to encourage and pray for others even as we believe God to move in our hearts and our homes. God is faithful and like with love, we should look like our Father in our faithfulness.
One of the main areas we need to trust God in is His faithfulness to complete the good work He began in us. Be encouraged. God wants us healed, whole, and holy but if we are not faithful to believe this we can’t please Him. So let our faithfulness start with being faithful in our faith in God and His power to make ALL things new in our lives.
