WHY DID GOD CREATE MARRIAGE? FOR MERGED CHRIST RELECTION
Now we have come to the last “MC” that God created every marriage relationship for:
To Facilitate MERGED CHRIST REFLECTION!
Mr. Isaiah was a prophet. So was his wife (Isa 8:3). Together they ministered for Yahweh’s glory. Together they build God’s kingdom.
Jehoiada was a priest in Judah. He led the nation in revolt against Athaliah, the evil queen who was out to end the Davidic dynasty. His wife Jehosheba hid the last surviving baby boy of King David’s family, Joash, with the help of a nurse (II Chron 22:11/II Chron 23). They teamed up to see the execution of God’s plan.
Aquila and Priscilla were perhaps a godly couple living in the city of Corinth. They made tents for a living. One day they invited fiery young preacher Apollos home. Apollos’ understanding of the doctrine of water baptism was inadequate. Aquilla and Priscilla corrected the wrong ideas that Apollos had about water baptism in what was clearly a joint husband-wife effort (Acts 18:26).
Join together with your spouse to witness for Jesus. Work together with your spouse to work for Jesus. Remember that you both have come together to gather – souls for Jesus! Do this in your own way.
You, the wife, could either stay at home or take care of the kids so that your husband can minister with a freedom. Or, you could join him in the meetings your husband speaks in and share his burden by preaching alongside him, if there was someone to take care of your children.
See what suits your temperament. See what suits your context. Whatever be the case, forge a partnership with your spouse for the sake of building the kingdom of God.
The Bible says that one can chase one thousand while two can chase ten thousand (not just two thousand as per the mathematical calculations, mind you!) (Deut 32:20). When couples work together for the Lord, there is an exponential multiplication of their resources resulting in great growth in the kingdom of God!
So here then are the five reasons why God created marriage. Would you at this time go over the five-fold purposes that God had for creating marriage all over again and take a vow that you will do your best to ensure each particular purpose is fulfilled in your marriage (or your upcoming marriage)? Do it right now!
