BECOMING ONE FLESH(1)

Dear Reader,

I welcome you to another new month. I am glad to bring God’s Word to you again, and my prayer is that the Word will work wonders in your family life as you receive it today, in Jesus name! I will be teaching on the topic, ‘Becoming one flesh’.

Marriage is a mystery of two people becoming one, and God programmed it to be two in one. When you understand this truth, it will help you a great deal to work towards a successful home. God has created all that it would take to make marriage glorious. Man, on his own part, needs to abide by this principle and implement his plan. In God’s own arithmetic, two people alone make a home. A home is formed at the coming together of only two, not more. The Bible says, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh (Mark 10:7-8). The coming together of man and woman in marriage is a spiritual conversion from one to two. The Bible says, ‘The two will become one flesh’, and it draws the following conclusion, ‘They are no longer two but one’. There is something so deep and wonderful in the marriage bond, but you need spiritual insight to understand its divine significance. The union of husband and wife is used in the Scripture as a symbol of unity between Christ and His Church; Christ is the bridegroom, and the Church is His bride. Paul knew that the Church is a part of Christ, and that was why he said that we are members of the body of Christ and Christ is the head of the Church (1 Corinthians 12:27). In the same way, the wife is part of the body of her husband. This union between Christ and His Church is based on the covenant promise, sealed in His blood, that He will never leave or forsake us (Deuteronomy 31:6). He will remain faithful to His promises even though we are faithless.

Very importantly, you must take note of the following ways of becoming one flesh;

Pray to become one flesh in marriage
Leave to become one flesh in marriage
Cleave to become one flesh in marriage
Change your perspective about your spouse in order to become one flesh.

However, to make the most of your marital life, there is a need to surrender your life to Jesus. If you are not yet born again, and you desire to do so right now, please pray this prayer with faith in your heart:Dear Lord Jesus, I come to You today. I believe You died and rose again for my sake. Forgive me of my sins, take over my life, make me Your child and let Your peace reign over my life. Thank you for saving me. Now I know I am born again!
