I firmly believe the heavens opened for my life when I decided to pursue marriage so that I can honor God. It weighed more heavily in my heart to have a right standing with God. Even without a wedding feast, I got married.

Initially, I didn’t fully understand that marriage is a covenant. I was running around headless filled with pride (aka Jezebel spirit) resulting in marital neglect. Therefore, I didn’t experience biblical marriage of husband and wife becoming one. I felt that this was not practical and was not humanly possible. I was right until I discovered another truth.

When I began to pursue knowing God more through a discipleship program called OPERATION SOLID LIVES, I learned that having a biblical marriage is achievable only with God’s involvement.

Finally, I understood that covenant practice such as marriage is exactly the same as having a relationship with God. I was naïve to think that I can fulfill biblical marriage without a strong relationship with God.

*As I strengthened my spiritual walk with God, I also strengthened my marriage.*
