If you’re a single Christian woman hoping for marriage one day, it’s natural to wonder if a man showing interest in you might be “the one.” But just because someone pursues you doesn’t mean they deserve your time, your energy, or your heart. The truth is, giving attention to the wrong man can delay or even prevent you from meeting the right one God has for you.
Jesus said, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:21).
When a Christian man is trying to decide if God wants him to pursue a particular woman or not, he will do many things that you would expect, like pray, apply the Scriptures, and examine the reality of his relationship with you.
If you want God to bless your relationship with a man, there are certain things you must never do for that man. You may want to do some of these things for him because it could feel like an act of love, but in reality, by not doing certain things for a man, you are loving him even better.
In the Christian dating world, advice is everywhere. Some of it is biblical and wise, but some of it, though well-intentioned, actually hurts your chances of forming a genuine connection with a godly woman.
How will God warn a Christian woman that a certain man is not the right man for her?
Choosing the right wife is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Marriage can either be a blessing that draws you closer to Christ, or it can be a weight that pulls you away from your calling. When you are seeking God’s guidance in this area, one of the clearest ways he speaks is through the actions of the woman you’re considering.
Before God gave Adam a wife, he first gave Adam everything else he needed to be the kind of man who could receive her. Genesis 2 doesn’t just tell the story of creation—it gives us a blueprint for manhood before marriage.
Not every woman who enters your life is sent by God. Some are sent as distractions, tests, or even traps by the devil. Just as Satan disguised himself as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14-15), he can send people into your life who appear godly on the surface but are secretly working against the will of God.
