So many times I see people jumping into marriage without knowing what they are jumping into.
Marriage is an everlasting institution and those that study the institution well shall find joy in it.

Marriage unites two sinners into one. Without looking at the gospel you will not understand biblical marriage. The main purpose of marriage is to glorify God and to be a representation of how Christ loves the church.

In marriage you are not only committing to each other in companionship, you are committing to each other in everything. Nothing comes before your spouse.

Proverbs 18:22 “He who finds a wife finds what is goodand receives favor from the LORD.”

But this day you hardly see people asking God
Is she made for me? Lord show me my wife?

What do you expect when you don't build the foundation of your marriage with God.
Divorce, heartbreak, unfruitful marriage and so on possibly it could lead to death

Of 1million that wanna get married maybe only 1000 or less remember to ask or is interested in asking.. Of the 1000 that ends up asking, maybe just 100 or less is capable of discernment, of the 100 that discerns maybe just 10 or less acts, and of the 10, Likely just 1 turns out succesful and really happy. smiley
Many ask but only but a few wait to listen to God. The ideal thing is to learn how to listen and discern. The Holy Spiit comes to play here

And still many are thanking God for where they are today. If you make God non existent in your life then so shall it be. You marry with the wrong motives you must suffer the consequences dont blame God for choices you make

Thank God the you yourself quoted that Bible verses that says he who FINDS a wife finds a good thing, not he who asks God for a wife.
How many Biblical character asked God if they could marry the wives they married and where was it written in the Bible that you should ask God? Even Adam did not ask God if he could marry Eve, he just FOUND her and marry her
Did Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses David, and others ask God before they married their wives. Just name one person in the Bible that asked God before they married. just one person that asked those questions, "is she made for me, show me my wife? "
Isaac.

He got his wife by divine intervention.
He didn't even know who she was until God gave him a sign after he prayed.

That's not correct

Genesis 24 New International Version (NIV)

Abraham was now very old, and the LORD had blessed him in every way. He said to the senior servant in his household, the one in charge of all that he had, “Put your hand under my thigh.
I want you to swear by the LORD , the God of heaven and the God of earth, that you will not get a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I am living, but will go to my country and my own relatives and get a wife for my son Isaac.”


Study your Bible very well, it was Abraham's servant that went to look for a wife for Isaac

But there were more than one daughters to choose from in the land of his relatives. .

You didn't quote the whole chapter.

Issac didn't know the right daughter from the pool of daughters.

He had to pray for a sign to get the right daughter.

Read your Bible like I said. It was not even Issac that went to meet Rebecca, it was Abraham's servant, and it was the servant that prayed for direction, going by that principle, your father's servant should be the one praying to God for the wife you will marry

Satan's pikin. Are you in your house? I wan come beat you. Lol. Hearing from God is not that easy, and only people with special assignment will hear God concerning who to marry. How God unveiled my fiancee is the best instruction I ever received - very complicated and accurate.

God has permitted us to choose our spouses and we are therefore totally responsible for our choices. This idea of asking God if she is the one is pure escapism; those scared of making mistakes delegate back to God their task of picking spouses.

The work of a Pastor is to equip you with wisdom to make the right choice but not to choose your future spouse for you
