Not every person in your life is meant to be in your inner circle. Some relationships are God-given assignments, others are distractions, and some are traps. As Christians, we are called to love others, but we are not called to give unlimited access to people who pull us away from God’s will.
Satan hates when marriages are formed because God uses marriage to bring glory to himself. One of Satan’s most effective ways of hindering Christian singles from getting married is through tempting them to do things that will stop them from rightly identifying the person God has for them.
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.
For Christian singles, few questions weigh heavier than this: Was meeting this person God’s doing—or just a random twist of life? In moments like these, it’s easy to overthink every word, every glance, and every circumstance. But not every meeting is a divine encounter pointing toward your future spouse.
In Scripture, betrayal is not only a recurring theme but often something God warns his people about ahead of time. If you are walking closely with God and paying attention to the subtle leading of the Holy Spirit, he may begin to show you signs that someone in your life is not as loyal as they seem.
If you are a Christian single person who wants to be married one day, are you doing something wrong? Why is it taking so long to meet “the one” God has for you? Past sins? Passivity? Trying too hard?
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.

What does the Bible say about God’s revenge?
When someone deeply wounds you, it’s tempting to hurt them back. You rehearse the injustice in your mind, planning what you should’ve said or imagining how they’ll finally get what’s coming. But when God steps into that pain, he says something very different: “Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, ‘Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord’” (Romans 12:19).
Does God want you with that person or does he have someone else for you? Will something happen between you two if you keep waiting, or is the Lord leading you to move on? How will you know if you are praying about the right person?
