SINGLES CORNER COURTSHIP Courtship is the period between when a man and a woman decide to marry and the time they actually joined together in marriage. The period of courtship is of great importance and should not be toydd with. How well you handle it, determines to a great extent how the anticipated home will be. Knowing WHO to MARRY is not the end to marriage, it is rather just the beginning. How Long a courtship last varies from couple to couple. There is no time lenght in the bible for courtship but you got to allow enough time to know the person you are marrying. Its not enough to be filled with the Holy Ghost, you must listen to him and hse his guidance. Like I always say, YOU CANNOT MARRY EVERY CHRISTIAN. Just because he is born again, tongue talking doesnt make him or her the one. You must give sight to the little details, their service to God, works of righteousness, decision making, their priorities, their visions...you must both be heading the same way. The same direction in life. There is no place in the bible that says exactly how long and short courtship should be. But the word of God does say that in Everything wisdom is profitae to direct. (Ecc. 10:10) Since marriage is not a thing to be rushed into (because once you go in, you will have to stay in it the rest of your days). It is important to be sure you know well enough who you are getting married to. The Holy Ghost should guide you. All that glitters aint gold. Find out the life of this person at home, in ministry at work. Listen to them talk, watch how they handle challenges. Hear their opinions and choices in life in relation to the word. I always say Love alone is not enough to marry anyone. A lady once came to me and told me of her marriage intentions, before I heard again she was married. Later I discovered the guy was abroad and had come back to the country and she had to quickly marry him and go abroad with him. As soon as marriage was conducted she discovered the true nature of the man. He was not just interested in the things of God as she was but he was born again and tongue talking. Sadness lurked her as she spoke in tears only few months into marriage. The root cause she never really knew the one she married. RHEMA 1. Love is not enough to marry anyone. Love is more than feelings. Its conviction, its a commandment and yet a choice. 2. You cannot marry every christian. 3. Dont be in a hurry to be joined to someone. 4. Enjoy serving God as a single whole person, so you remain whole in marriage. 5. Marriage is not an achievement, marriage is for ministry. Its beautiful but yet a life time of responsibility. Go into it prepared. 6. Lady understand you will be made to serve your husband, if you havent learnt submission stay away from marriage. 5. You cant change anyman, dont plan to edit and change anyones life. You are not the Holy Ghost in their lives or their creator. Dont try to. You can only inspire and motivate them based on the outworkings of God in your life. 6. Focus on Gods calling for your life and the one will met you there. God knows you need him or her. He saw that Adam needed someone and he gave him Eve. Nevertheless, there is nothing like soulmate, no one was joined to you from creation. How deep you grow to love a person is a CHOICE. 7. Marriage doesnt cure loneliness. There is difference between being alone and being Lonely. A child of God filled with the fullness of God head bodily you cant be alone. 8. Stop looking for someone to make you happy. Learn to create an atmosphere of joy around you always. You attract who you. If you want a priceless one for a spouse, you have to be priceless and stay priceless. Train yourself in the word of God. With the help of the Holy Ghost refine your character and attitude daily. Change is not coincidental. Its got be a conscious effort. 9. Dont engage anyone for donkey years calling it courtship. Thats evil. Ask the Holy Ghost for answers and when you are not convinced let go! Dont marry anyone out of pity. 10. Stop falling in love today and going out tomorrow. Grow in love, walk in love, stay in love everyday of your life with everyone. You have an issue to deal with if the only person you listen to or love in your life is the person you are engaged to or married to. Thats unhealthy! You will soon choke them up amd become stalkers in their life. There is so much love in you. Learn to submit to spiritual authority foremost. Have times to love God and fellowship with the Holy Ghost too. If youd learn how to love the lord daily, youd be amazed how much he will teach you to love the people in your life uniquely and expectionally. #ILOVEYOU#
