The general overseer of the Redeem Christian Church of God [RCCG] Pastor Enoch Adeboye has highlighted in his new book titled "Journey To Marriage" the possible reasons not being into marriage is more better than being into marriage.
Journey to Marriage is a piece that centers on humility, and all the necessary things one needs to get around with concerning marriage, and also serves as a spiritual guide to possible marital life.
Little insight into the book , Pastor Adeboye began by saying it is not everybody that would get married.
“Please let this point be clear from the beginning. Marriage is a very beautiful thing, but when you think seriously about the matter the one who does not marry is better than the one who does. Almost all the mighty men tremendously used by God never married.
Such people include Elijah, Elisha, Paul, Jesus, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Stephen. Somehow, they ‘did not get into the “trouble” I am happy being married, like somebody said, like trailer it drags you.”
“The bible says clearly that those who are not married mind only the things of God, while those who are married mind the things of their husbands and their wives”
“I have a rough idea that when we get to heaven those who are not married will score higher marks than those of us who are married.” So your first step to marriage therefore should be to ask God if he wants you to marry or not according to the man of God.
“If the answer is negative then pray to God to let you settle down and begin your work for him. You could argue that it is God who says we should increase and multiply.
Yes but do all those who marry get children? He concluded.
I think Pastor Adeboye is very much right about this here, even though marriage may be good but it has some limitations to the life of anyone that is into it.
