“And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.”
Malachi 2:15
Marriage is a sacred bond established by God Himself. From the beginning, God designed the union between man and woman to reflect His covenant with His people. Malachi reminds us that this bond is not merely emotional or physical but spiritual. God Himself is a witness to every vow and covenant made in His name.
In a time where love is reduced to convenience, God calls us to return to the sacredness of His design. He desires that our unions produce much more than happiness. Our unions are meant to raise godly legacies, marked by faithfulness and purpose.
It is the reason it is important to honour God’s view of the marriage covenant. Guard your heart and honour God with your relationships.
Charge: Honour the God who created you for a sacred bond.
