Topic: GOD'S PURPOSE FOR MARRIAGE – Part 3


MEMORIZE: But did He not make them one, Having a remnant of the Spirit? And why one? He seeks godly offspring. Malachi 2:15.


SCRIPTURE READING: Genesis 1:28


EXPOSITION:

Today, we shall study the third purpose of Marriage in God’s original plan; it is to be fruitful in child bearing to be trained in the fear of God. After creating man, “Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth." Genesis 1:28. The blessing of fruitfulness upon men is was results to the present population of the world. Even when God wiped away the world of Noah’s time, He spared Noah and his family for him to start afresh the new world. He still blessed them to be fruitful and multiplied - Genesis 9:1.


Immediately after the fall of man, Adam rename his wife from woman to Eve. “And Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.” Genesis 3:20. This narrowed the essence of women in their matrimony to child bearing. Women will be value mostly when bearing children. Any life devoid of blessing of fruitfulness shall be stagnant and not be celebrated. Human’s life’s value is thereby attached to his/her fruitfulness. Up till today, any home that makes God happy receives His blessing that no one can reverse. Make your home heaven on earth through your obedience to God’s laid down principles guiding home, and you shall be blessed tremendously.


Prayer Point:

Lord, help me to daily experience joy in my marital life in Jesus name.

Lord, help the barren to be fruitful  and fulfilled in their marital lives in Jesus name.
