Becoming the Right Person for and in MarriageSample

DESTINY DEMANDS A MARRIAGE OF AGREEMENT

Marriage is not just about sharing a house—it is about sharing a destiny. Scripture asks, “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” (Amos 3:3 KJV). Jesus also affirmed, “If two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 18:19 KJV). Agreement is the backbone of destiny fulfilment in marriage. Where there is agreement in the Spirit, strength multiplies. Where there is discord, destiny is delayed or derailed.

Agreement in marriage is not about trivial things like favourite meals or hobbies; it is about alignment in purpose, values, and obedience to God. If a man is pursuing ministry but his wife despises it, frustration is inevitable. If a woman is consecrated but her husband resists the things of God, her fire will eventually be quenched. Agreement is spiritual, not sentimental. It is standing side by side, facing the same direction, and pulling in the same Spirit. The devil knows this power, which is why he works to plant seeds of disagreement in homes. Once agreement is lost, prayers are hindered, and destinies are crippled.

Practically, don’t ignore spiritual agreement when making marital choices. Sisters, ask plainly: “Does this man’s spirit align with mine in pursuing God’s purpose?” Brothers, ask: “Will this woman walk with me in obedience or fight against the call of God on my life?” If the answer is no, then don’t proceed. For those already married, fight for agreement. Pray together until your spirits align. Refuse to allow bitterness, pride, or distractions to weaken your unity. Destiny demands agreement; without it, your marriage becomes a burden instead of a blessing.

THOUGHT TO PONDER
Is my marriage or relationship marked by spiritual agreement or silent discord? Am I intentionally cultivating unity of purpose with my partner?

PRAYER
Lord, give me a marriage of true agreement that multiplies strength and accelerates destiny.
