I got married October last year and I thought it would led to another level in life. Before I got married, I have heard that there some things you do as a Christian when you are single that you can't do when you get married. Now that am married, I have found out that is true. For example, I recently decided to fast, but I couldn't do more than the first day. Another example, I love writing and any time I want to write, I love being in a quiet place. I can spend hours alone just to write. But now, I can't spend one hour before my wife start disturbing me with one or the other. I have not pick up pen to write something for close to four months now. is it true that when you get married you can't do somethings as a Christian. A pastor told that since he got married, he doesn't go out for morning cry again. And don't tell me that I got married to the wrong person. I fasted and prayed before God led me to her. Even the activities in marriage is enough for a man to start losing something as a Christian. I want Christian to comment. And the way, I advise on the next steps to take. I have written a book and I want to publish it. please publisher in the house, what should I do |

Brother, you need to Jack up and wake up! There is no reason to fall or fail.. Marriage is a blessing. It is meant to advance your work with God Almighty. If your Marriage is doing other wise to you, it calls for you to wake up . Any Believer who has Heaven as his goal will not make anything or anyone to come between him and God. These are the very last times, and so everyone should be extremely careful as not to fall a victim of the Endtime Prophecies. This is a very serious matter.. God Almighty is number 1.. nothing more, nothing less! See these scriptures to understand these things better Mark 9:43-48 1Corithians 7:29-30 Luke 14:16-24 Following God must cost you all. Nothing else is expected to come first. Wisdom is profitable to direct. May God give you the wisdom you need so his blessings on you will not become a Hinderance to you. |

Not necessarily so for there are those whose marriage helped in strengthening their faith in God and gave it a much needed boost. Some lost souls even became saved as a result of marriage. The most factorial thing in that regard i believe is the kind of person one gets married to...If it's the right person for him, the chances are that it would not make him weaker in the faith. True, you are bound to lose some time...but that can be made up for if your spouse is spiritually on the same wavelength with you or even higher. It was the wife of Smith Wigglesworth, a great man of God, that inspired his restoration to the faith, when he had backslidden to the extent of forcefully trying to stop his wife from attending church service. She defied his orders, and told him that he was her husband, but Jesus was her Lord...her firm resolve in spite of the hostility she faced from her husband, who locked her outside once as a result that she had to sleep out side on the floor till day break, was what brought him back to the faith. He never forgot what his wife did for him...he remained ever grateful to her. So although there are certainly benefits of being single with respect to one faith as Paul suggested, it doesn't mean that someone cannot achieve same through marriage, if one was married to the right person. It's when one is married to the wrong person that it is very difficult..but even at that, it's still possible for one to remain unshaken and strong in his faith as the instance of Job proved. |

delkuf:Marriage Should never be a reason for not doing your spiritual obligation except you have made wrong decision . Another example, I love writing and any time I want to write, I love being in a quiet place. I can spend hours alone just to write. But now, I can't spend one hour before my wife start disturbing me with one or the other. I have not pick up pen to write something for close to four months now.Its not supposed to be so . Hope you made the right decision is it true that when you get married you can't do somethings as a ChristianThe only thing you may not be able to do are boys things Which may not be very responsible . You can’t go And sleep in friends house or just wake up and travel with friends etc . You should be a responsible person A pastor told that since he got married, he doesn't go out for morning cry again.He’s not serious yet . He will answer God for his call . And don't tell me that I got married to the wrong person.That’s between you and God . Because the sign you’re given us is opposite of Gods plan . Don’t take offense . I don’t know if you did marriage class before getting married in your church . Two people can be best of friends but they may not be best for marriage . Marriage primarily has to do with Gods plan and destiny . So when marriage begin to get in the way of assignment and destiny we have to question the foundation of that marriage . People marry for wrong reason sometimes . A partner is supposed to compliment your life not oppose it . The partner is supposed to know what you stand for , your purpose , your course , your cause , your passion , your conviction your assignment and vision . If the person say yes to it that settles it . But sometimes people go into relationship . They don’t study each other first to find out there’ vital issue of life . Then that’s a serious trouble . You have to chose between marriage and your purpose of existence . I fasted and prayed before God led me to her..Abeg.... he adds no sorrow . .. neither author of confusion . You chose her period . You have to address the issue early . Sit her down and tell her your vision and priorities . Somebody has to bend .But if you had told her all these before and now she’s standing in the way . You have to be a man. Stand your ground . This is destiny . if she’s really your Wife she will submit . It’s not about you . It’s about your assignment . |

No, infact it Strengthens you and Founds you Deeper in God, if and only if you are with the Person set for you from the beginning, speaking from my experience. Just saw this and thought to add my input. |
