                          ENTERING INTO HIS WILL 


2. POWER :   
The power to choose right is an essential ingredient in choosing a lifemate. Just as God has the will power to create whatever He desires, so also you have the power to choose anyone you like. 
Your ability to use that will power correctly is what determines if you will have a peaceful union and home or a turbulent matrimony. This is not psychic or an out of the world kind of power, it is just that ability to get the right man or woman. 
Everyone with the intention of getting married should have a picture of the kind of partner he/she wants. This has nothing to do with race, class or creed. It is more about personality. 
You have the power to call into your life the person you want, it is just that most people do not know this. 
This issue of power brings to my mind the story of a travelling evangelist who got to a province and met a sister who was almost getting past the age of marriage. She had met with so many disappointments that she had made up her mind not to be bothered about marriage. 
On this fateful night after the ministration, the evangelist was at dinner with the host Pastor when the issue of the sister was tabled.  The evangelist just laughed, asked that the sister be brought and on seen the sister he told her to paint or get a good artist to help her paint the picture of the type of man she wanted. 
The sister was disappointed because she expected to be prayed for or word of prophecies spoken into her life which the evangelist did not do.  By faith she did what she was asked to do. A year later when the evangelist was travelling through the province the sister ( now married) was one of the worshippers to testify to the wonders of the Almighty. When her husband was brought before the evangelist, he was exactly who was in the picture. The woman simply exercised her power to call out her lifemate.

CHECKLIST #3 DO I TRULY LOVE HIM/HER? Love, lust, infatuation are experiences with very fragile line of demarcation.  A woman who is driven by infatuation may become a victim of a man who is driven by lust. The union between this two will crash and the pieces  will be so difficult to put together. Any marriage contracted out of genuine love between the two parties will end well. The question to ask is;  am I marrying him because of his build or her beauty? If he or she becomes 70 years old with bald head or falling teeth, will I still love him/her? In case of severe sickness, can I clear his waste without pinching my nose or twisting my mouth? Supposed there are no children, will he /she still be the apple of my eyes? There is the story of this lady who was diagnosed with cancer a few months after her wedding. She was made to go through chemotherapy treatment and after the treatment, she looked 80 years older than her normal age with fallen hair and wrinkled face....

          BEFORE GETTING MARRIED     MATURITY BEFORE GETTING MARRIED   It is a known fact that maturity is key in marriage. Marriage, whichever way or place it is consummated is  not for kids. A successful marriage can only be built by two matured people who are willing to  - Make sacrifices in whichever way it is demanded  - Forgive as many times as offences come  - Overlook faults as if they never occurred  Unfortunately, maturity does not always come with age and for most people, it has to be consciously learnt and practiced.  If you want to make your marriage work, you must start making efforts before  the wedding date  is fixed to “wake up and grow up “. You must be determined to grow as an individual and develop your minds, intellect and emotions to the maximum level that can ensure peaceful co-habitation.  Even though the following list is not inclusive, to have a joyous marriage, individua...
