Marriage Minute November 25, 2018
Malachi 2:13-16 “And this second thing you do. You cover the Lord’s altar with tears, with weeping and groaning because he no longer regards the offering or accepts it with favor from your hand. But you say, “Why does he not?” Because the Lord was witness between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant. Did he not make them one, with a portion of the Spirit in their union? And what was the one God seeking? Godly offspring. So, guard yourselves in your spirit, and let none of you be faithless to the wife of your youth. “For the man who does not love his wife but divorces her, says the Lord, the God of Israel, covers his garment with violence, says the Lord of hosts. So, guard yourselves in your spirit, and do not be faithless.”
God was angered how the Israelites were faithlessly/treacherously treating their spouses. They ignored the Lord’s law which was to love their wives, and divorced them.
Verse 15 states that a person who has the Spirit of God should love their wife and refuse to divorce their spouse. Since God is faithful, and we have His Spirit, then how can we be faithless and do such a thing?
Prayer: Lord, thank you for your Holy Spirit, thank you for helping my spouse and I to be faithful to You and each other.
