Being Capable of Marriage

One of the biggest deceptions that our adversary uses in the Church today is whether your capable of marriage. Whether you suffered a divorce, or you came out of a very abusive relationship, or you never seem to be able to meet a quality Christian person worth the pursuit of marriage, I want to let you in on something. You are capable and worthy of a good marriage. Another forum of these lies are tied around comments like, “Are there any good single Christian men left that are available for marriage,” or “Are there any single Christian women who do not come with extra baggage in a relationship?” Yet, some people believe that there is only one shot in life at marrying the right person, and if they miss that opportunity, it will never come around again. It is never too late to come into what God has destined for your life. If you can conceive this thought right now, then it is not too late for your God given spouse to arrive in your life. Throughout the Gospels Jesus tells the people who wanted their miracle to “have faith” and “only believe.” The enemy creates these reports of single life that look like gloom and doom; this is a deception to take your faith because your faith is what pleases God (Hebrews 11:6). If you buy into this deception then you tie up God’s hands to move on your behalf. I certainly do understand if you are feeling this way from first hand experience. I rejoiced at being rescued from this negative thought process through faith in God and faith in hearing the word of God (Romans 10:17). You are capable of marriage, no matter the mistakes in your life, how old you are, or if you have children living at home. I repeat you are capable of falling in love; you are capable of walks in the park; you are capable of romantic dinners, and you are capable of having a wonderful and beautiful marriage in God!
