Glory in Marriage – Part I
This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. – Ephesians 5:22
Our primary aim and focus as ministers of the gospel and individual members of the body is to bring glory to God in every area of our lives, but especially our marriage. Our love for our spouse should equate to the way Christ loves the church.
Just a gentle reminder we define God’s glory as: His nature, power, and character.
So if God is telling me to bring Him glory in my marriage, what is He really saying? He is saying the interactions in my marriage should reflect His character (love, goodness, gentleness, kindness), nature (spiritual being), and power (healing, deliverance, wellness, peace, soundness).
My love for my husband radiates with God’s glory when I usher my husband into healing, deliverance, wellness, as well as practical demonstrations of love found in kind acts, exhibiting goodness towards him, blessing Him with things I know He likes/needs, affirming His identity in Christ, providing all I can so he can be all God’s called Him to be. Isn’t this what God does for us . . . simply and elaborately because He loves us and we are His wife?!
Resting gloriously in Him,
Prophetess Karen M. Pina
