God's Definition of Marriage
God in His sovereignty can do all things without man's help, but because man was created on earth as His representative, He needed man to legislate on earth by giving him a body. Even Jesus, the Son of God was given a body to carry out His assignment on earth.
More than having a body, man was created to help God on earth.
Why was man kept in Eden? Why couldn't He have allowed man to become a wanderer?
God has a purpose for every of His creature. Even you, you were created by Him for a purpose.
Prior to the creation of the institution of marriage, Adam was saddled with the responsibility of tending and cultivating the garden. And in addition, he helped God to name all the animals.
On this premise, man was helping God to carry out what He needed man to do on earth.
How can God have dominion on earth without His cooperation with man? How can His kingdom come without man praying His descent?
Before you nurse the idea of marriage, what are you helping God to do on earth? To populate His kingdom or to increase the number of those going to hell?
It is very crucial that you discover your divine purpose and be occupied with its fulfillment.
God cannot make a help meet for a man who is not helping Him on earth. And a helper can't be given to a woman who lacks the capacity to become a help meet.
Mind you, because you are made in His image and likeness, you can go on to find a wife or husband for yourself, but not a help meet or helper.
Hear this beloved, not all women are wives, and not all wives are help meet. If you want a wife that is a help meet for your life and destiny, now and in the future, you must live for His purpose on earth.
Who is a help meet for a man?
It is God that makes a woman to be a help meet for a man who's helping Him.
Dear sisters, a man can make you his wife by marrying you through whichever means his unregenerate mind can conceive.
Because he wants to make you his wife, he'll tell you to be pregnant before marriage or test your fertility so he can be sure you're a woman indeed. If he doesn't want to do that, he will tell you to come and spend every weekend in his house to see how 'wifely' you'd become.
Will you allow a man to make you his wife or you'd allow God to make you a help meet for the man He has prepared for you?
God's definition of marriage is the coming together of a man who's helping God to fulfill His purpose on earth and a woman who is a help meet for him, alongside their godly understanding of marriage so they can both achieve His purpose on earth.
It's on this premise that one will chase a thousand and two would chase ten thousand to flight.
A man becomes God's helper, and a woman becomes man's help meet because they have an understanding of their divine purpose and its fulfillment.
Dear single and waiting brothers and sisters, I know how uneasy it is to wait before you find someone who you can call your would-be spouse, but trust me, the process will be less cumbersome when you are occupied with the fulfillment of your divine purpose on earth.
Dear brother, are you a helper to God? And my dear sister, will you allow God to make you a help meet for the right man or you'd cast your pearls before swines?
Let God make you!
