Finding the person God has for you is not just about waiting passively or rushing ahead in your own strength. It is about seeking the Lord, aligning your desires with his will, and praying with a heart that is open to his leading.
Singleness can be a blessing from God for those who have been equipped with this gift (1 Corinthians 7:7). However, for most Christians, they are designed to function best with a spouse.
When Charlie Kirk was martyred, all the left had to say was, “Murdering someone is always wrong. We renounce all forms of political violence.” And to be fair, many on the left did say that. However, a shockingly large number of people did not do that. They failed this very simple test.
Your home is meant to be a place of peace, rest, and protection. Yet many people unknowingly open spiritual doors that allow the enemy to sow fear, confusion, and bondage within their households. The Bible makes it clear that Satan and his demons are always seeking entry points (1 Peter 5:8). While believers cannot be possessed if they belong to Christ, they can be oppressed, harassed, or spiritually weakened by inviting in demonic influences.
Do you have to give a man sex for him to love you? If he is a godly man, the answer to that question is no.
But there are certain things a godly man needs before he can fully open his heart to you and pursue you into marriage.
No government on this earth will be absolutely biblical in every way. No matter who’s in office, sin will always occur. However, I do believe there are better and worse forms of government. The more biblical principles we can recognize and apply in our governments, the better our society will be.
Before God introduces you to “the love of your life,” meaning the person he wants you to marry one day, he will prepare you for this in very clear ways.
Relationships shape our lives. The people we allow close to us influence our choices, our faith, and our future.
Isaiah 5:20-21, “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight!”
Not only was Charlie Kirk murdered by a sexually depraved person who was fully indoctrinated by leftist ideologies, but those celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk are also people who profess to be leftists. Why are they so full of hate and violence?
Jesus said, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:21).
The things a man owns often reveal what he values most. While no one is perfect, there are certain items that signal deeper issues. Therefore, if you see these items in his possession, take them as red flags that may save you pain and protect your walk with Christ.
