A Marriage Revival. . .

Isaiah 61:1 (Whole Chapter) The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

Yes my dear readers, it is time for a "Marriage Revival". A revival of restoration, healing, deliverance, love, compassion, and fellowship.

Invariably, when you think of revival, you think of the preaching of saving souls . Well, I believe that a marriage revival is just that; the saving of your marriage and your soul. In fact, when the married or the two coming together as one, we are actually doing what God says in His Holy Word, BECOMING ONE!. That's right . . . when we follow the outline for marriage God's way, we are saving our souls from destruction. That's how serious marriage is! When we falter on the holy vows of matrimony.

Be assured of this one thing: when you adapt to the teachings of the Holy scriptures and apply it to your marriages, you then fall under a different category than the world. Yes, a category that says: "I will be your God and ye shall be my people". . . . .Isaiah 59:19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.

You see, as the scriptures tell us: Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. . . and these are the things that causes emulations, divisions, separations, confusions, animosity, indifference, fears, disputes, and ultimately divorce; but through God's mighty power, we can launch a revival in our marriages that will over come all obstacles. Hallelujah!

My dear married friends, WE NEED A MARRIAGE REVIVAL! We need to rekindle that spark of love and passion in our relationships and lay aside our differences and engage!

Did you know that the very moment. . . . . that's right, the very moment you just turn to God for His help, that He's right there to provide you with the comfort and the solution and the healing necessary to revive your relationship! Why ?. . . . .because God always favors His word above all other things; and His word says: Hebrews 13:4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

I don't know about you, but I want to be counted among the honorable!

(in God's sight, that is)!

Like anything else, God also has principles and processes that we must go through in order to activate this revival. Listen to the scriptures: 2 Corinthians 5:18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; so as you can see, the ability and power for revival lays within us!. . . . Matthew 5:24 Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

Sometimes we just need to confront one another in love, compassion, and forgiveness; that's where the true marriage revival starts. Will you consider that today?

Will you be reconciled and allow a marriage revival to emulate in your marriage relationship? It will Bless you and open a whole new door for your marriage. Then you will have this testimony; from an old Sunday School verse: THE LORD IS MY SHEPARD AND I SHALL NOT WANT. . . .because He has revived my Marriage. . . . . Amen!

Always remember . . . . . You are Blessed!
