Becoming the Right Person for and in MarriageSample

MARRIAGE WITHOUT DESTINY IS VANITY

Marriage in itself is not fulfilment—it is meant to be a vehicle for destiny. The Bible says, “Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour” (Ecclesiastes 4:9 KJV). God did not create Eve for Adam just to cure loneliness, but to help him accomplish the divine assignment: “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him” (Genesis 2:18 KJV). Marriage is not just for children, sex, or companionship; it is for destiny fulfilment. When a marriage is not tied to destiny, it quickly becomes vanity and eventually frustration.

Many couples enter marriage chasing comfort and end up asking, “Is this all there is?” They soon discover that physical things alone cannot sustain excitement in marriage. True fulfilment comes when the union is yoked to a higher purpose in God. That is why the devil tries hard to push believers into marriages without destiny. Once you are tied to the wrong partner, you waste years managing fleshly issues instead of advancing divine purpose. A destiny marriage, on the other hand, keeps you sharp, focused, and productive in God’s programme. It multiplies your impact and preserves your generational assignment.

Practically, singles must ask: “What has God called me to do, and who will help me accomplish it?” Don’t enter marriage just to silence pressure from family or society. Don’t accept pity proposals or emotional manipulations—these are traps of vanity. If you are married already, lift your home into destiny alignment. Decide together that your marriage will be a platform for advancing God’s kingdom, not just a playground for personal desires. When marriage is destiny-driven, it never loses flavour; it only increases in relevance and fulfilment.

THOUGHT TO PONDER
Do I see marriage as a platform for destiny fulfilment or just as a fulfilment of personal desires? Is my union tied to purpose or drifting into vanity?

PRAYER
Lord, let my marriage serve Your eternal purpose. Deliver me from vanity and align me with destiny in my home.
