The Dis-functional Marriage


In today's message, a very common and most misleading subject, " the dis-functional marriage" Of course one will ask, why do I call it dis-functional, or perhaps, what exactly is a dis-funcitonal marriage. Well I hope you're ready for this one.

The dis-functional marriage is a relationship which operates within the marriage bond. It looks like, acts like, and usually displays all of the traits of marriage, except for it's "hidden dis-function". Did you get that? You see the dis-function is really hidden to the outside world, and the only way to tell is by it's ending result. . . Separation and/or Divorce. Make no mistake, marriage is a holy joining and is an ordained act of God, however, if the rules and instructions by God are not followed, you place yourself as well as your spouse in another category. To go on in disobedience causes dis-function.
Listen to the scriptures: II Peter 2: 12-15: 12But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; 13And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you; 14Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:
15Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;(
now you see why marriage is holy)
Wow. . . .that's pretty strong to the person or people in a marriage who just refuse to accept the instruction of God's way of marriage. Nevertheless, thousands of people do it everyday, even though it still doesn't make it right!
Everything changes when you make up in your mind that answers as well as the healing for your marriage can only come from above. Don't ever forget this: . . . .there is someone greater than you, and has all power in heaven and in the earth. Matthews 6:26: Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? God can and will take care of your marriages. Your job is to let Him!
Why settle for a dis-functional marriage, it's not healthy nor joyful and certainly not fulfilling. You've got the message.. . .Marriage God's Way or Dis-function! . . . .It's always your choice!
You can't help but be Blessed!
