PREPARING FOR MARRIAGE

PREPARING FOR MARRIAGE
A man was travelling in an aircraft and he was wearing his wedding ring on the wrong finger and someone told him he was wearing his wedding ring on the wrong finger and he said " hey! Don’t worry, it's because I married the wrong woman"
A marriage you don’t prepare for will confuse you.
You don’t prepare in marriage, you prepare for marriage.
You don’t learn how to shoot gun in the battle front, you learn it before the battle begins.
The better time to prepare for marriage is when you are single.
Celebrate your season as a single
Being a single is not a disadvantage,
Being a single is not a sin
You are not under a curse because you are single.
Being a single is the time you prepare for marriage.
To be single is better than married and praying to be a single.
So many people prepare for wedding and not marriage. Wedding is different from marriage. After the wedding, marriage begins.
Wedding is an initiation into marriage.
The elaborateness of your wedding doesn’t determine the success of your marriage.
Acquire knowledge from the word of God.
Develop a good quality relationship with God.
Have knowledge of the gender difference.
Know the difference between love and emotion.
Connect with people that have been married and learn from them.
Genesis 2:18. Marriage is all about meeting needs. Be sure you are able to meet those needs.
Discover God's purpose for your life. "If you don’t know where you are going to, anyone is fit for your life." Anonymous
Cultivate good character by taking care of your inward appearance. Proverbs 31:30. Character sustains destiny. Character stays when all is gone. Character is God-like. Character gives control. Character is cultivated and doesn’t drop like cherry. Character retains beauty. Character is like a smoke that can't be hid. Deal with all negative character while still single.
Take care of your outward appearance. Cleanliness is next to godliness. Be neat and always look good.
