Getting into marriage

To get at the best in anything, you need facts. I consider facts as the father of success. Every success in marriage is fathered by facts, not by luck.

Quite a number of people have very peaceful and harmonious homes and they have unconsciously engaged the vital law of success in marriage, the law of sense.

Many have put the blame for their troubled homes at the door of the devil. But I believe the devil is not to be blamed for some of the problems we find in homes today. Some of them are self-caused.

The Bible says by wisdom is a house built and by understanding it is established (Proverbs 24:3-4) Wisdom has a way of establishing peace and serenity in the home. But it places a responsibility on you.

Men with successful homes have accepted the responsibility of loving their wives, and the wives have also accepted the responsibility of submitting to their husbands. The Bible sense for getting into marriage or for enjoying a successful home is accepting your responsibility in designing or determining your destiny.

I believe that shortage of sense in the reason for problems in the home. Marriage is neither a myth nor magic. It is a relationship consciously entered into. You can’t wake up one morning and find somebody by your side. That happened only once in the garden of Eden, never to happen again.

Marriage is a good thing established by God, for the benefit of man. But to enjoy the benefits, it must be entered into as God intended it to be.

Starting right in the solid foundation for success in marriage. The Bible says in Psalm 11:3 “If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?”
Success in marriage starts even before a couple enters into marriage. A sure foundation sets the pace for a successful home.
