The bolded should be replaced with "He knows"

I actually don't believe in this gospel many preachers bandy around saying because Adam said that thus God doesn't choose for people anymore. Lies. It depends on your connection with God and what you truly desire. I have heard many Christians who said God told them who to marry, and it is not like they were in any relationship with the lady.
Sure God knows who we are to marry, but it's not narrowed to just one person.

It's like a scale of preference 📊

God has His option and can reveal someone to you, but He will never impose such or such on you.
Christianity Etc › Does God Have A Special Person For You To Marry? by judewrites(op): 7:45am On Feb 01
📖 Genesis 3
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
¹¹ And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?

¹² And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.

When queried by God for eating the forbidden fruit, Adam replied to God saying,

"It was the woman you gave me who gave me the fruit to eat" (paraphrased)

In other words, 'its the wife you choose for me that put me in all this mess.'

Humorously, it's said that since Adam complained about the wife God gave Him, from that day on, God decided that man would choose for himself whom he would marry.

Realistically, Adam couldn't refuse Eve because she was created specifically for him.

Unlike Adam's situation, God doesn't have a special person for one to marry, but will rather guide to a person suitable for one.

📖 Whoso findeth a (true) wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.
— Proverbs 18:22

The Bible didn't say whoso finds 'the' wife, but 'a' wife.

This means God has His options for you to marry, but It takes God's favour to find a good woman or man suitable for you for marriage.

For example out of ten women/men you are considering for marriage, God can guide you to one or two He feels will be best for you.

That's why repeated fornication often confuses sound judgement on the right person to marry because it defuses God's favour.

In fact, so many have missed God's best for them because they couldn't control their sexual appetites.

However, no two people are exactly the same; even identical twins differ in some areas.

This is why we should never compare our spouses with others or dissatisfaction will slowly creep in.

Celebrate 🎉 your spouse's uniqueness because you chose to marry him/her out of billions of people.

Which kind talk be this now?
A man after having secret sex with a woman he did not marry, came to pulpit on Sunday pretending he is filled with the holy spirit more than everyone else in church.

Is that not enough reason to free yourself from him and go start your own church?
It happened in the past and God has forgiven him.

Why then should we continue to judge him for a sin he committed in the past and God has forgiven?

That's why Jesus said we should not judge or we will be judged.

I follow his ministry online and I have been blessed but salvation is personal.

On judgement day, I won't give account for you neither you for me.

I pity those that take most of these so called pastors serious. Some women even respect their 'Daddy' pastor more than their husband.
So because he had an affair with her, we should condemn him for life?

Didn't Peter deny Jesus three times, yet the Lord restored him?

That's not true. Nobody was created to be poor.

Spiritual things make no sense, but they are very real.

Poverty isn't normal because everyone is born with glory from God.

Glory can be hijacked spiritually.

Many people don't know we are supposed to increase continually by destiny, if you are stagnant or decreasing, your glory is in voicemail.

chukslawrence:
Is making money and enjoying it a sin now? Or it stops one from not loving God?
No, but when you added, "forget the love of money is the root of all evil" it seemed you were referring to making money outside the love of God.

When people love money above God, they can do anything to get it.

Our food industries told us carbohydrate food should be a the top of food pyramid....so we all eat rice, and swallow with a lot of process starch and process sugar but we eat a pieces of protein which is not even up to 10% of carbohydrate/sugar/process stuff we consume.

the real truth is that carbohydrate/sugar or process sugar should be less, but protein, fruit, vegetables should be the top of the food consume 70%.


carbohydrate/sugar/process stuff caused and damage the body on the long run
Unfortunately 70% of foods we eat in this environment are carbohydrates/sugars which leads to diabetes/piles/obesity.

Healthy Diets should consist 70% vitamins/proteins and 30% carbohydrates/sugars.

That's why they eat in foreign lands seems so strange to us.

There's no difference between a girlfriend and a prostitute.

Both are transactional and both can expose one to all kinds of STDs.

They are rejoicing because their county is at war and hence they have low power supply.

It's different when there is no war and yet you can't enjoy stable power supply.
