Daily Sermon 3/31/2011: The Power Of Marriage

Today we are going to discuss marriage and how God feels about marriage. Lets take a look at Genesis 2:18-25:
18 The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him." 19 Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. 20 So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds of the air and all the beasts of the field. But for Adamh no suitable helper was found. 21 So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man's ribsi and closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the ribj he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. 23 The man said, "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called 'woman,k ' for she was taken out of man." 24 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. 25 The man and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.The bible says that man shall become one with his wife now alot of you misunderstand the power of marriage I know I did at first but you have to become one with your spouse. Always remember if Gods blessing is not upon your marriage then your marriage will fall apart. The bible says that adam fell into a deep sleep so that one of his ribs could be taken out of his body to create the woman. A woman was made to be our help mates while we are still on earth. God is married to the church so if you look at that perspective then you will see that God is serious about marriages now that doesn't mean that you will be judged for your spouses deeds. What that means is that you all will work together as a team and nothing shall come between you. A lot of us play sports so look at it from this perspective when you are married all your problems are both of your problem so just like you have to work together as a team to get the ball in the basket then you do the same in marriage. "United We Stand; Divided We Fall."   Now what that means if we come together we can accomplish our goals but if we divide ourselves away from each other than we will never accomplish anything. So I will close leaving you with this thought. When God looks at us as husband and wife he blesses us as a team not as individuals. A Message From God Brought To You By As One Ministries.
