MATTHEW‬ ‭1:24‬ ‭NLT‬‬ | “WHEN JOSEPH WOKE UP, HE DID AS THE ANGEL OF THE LORD COMMANDED AND TOOK MARY AS HIS WIFE.”

If the Lord has revealed to you who to marry, then don’t delay or dither. Get on with His plan for your life. I once heard a famous preacher say the Lord revealed his spouse to him and he married her without asking the Lord any questions. Today, they have godly seeds.

Similar happened to Hosea, who was instructed by the Lord on who to marry. The Lord simply used Hosea’s obedience and faithfulness to His instruction to demonstrate the unfaithfulness of Israel. (Hosea 1:2-3 NIV) His ways are mysterious and His wisdom past finding out.

It’s a lot easier to excel in godly parenting if the good foundation of the right partner is met in the first place. And please, if God wants you unmarried, receive grace to not bow to both internal and external pressures. May you excel in living God’s best for your life. Bliss be with you.
