***THE FIRM FOUNDATION***

THE FIRM FOUNDATION OF A LASTING MARRIAGE!
May Your faithful love rest on us, Lord, for we put our hope in You.~Psalm 33:22~

When we embrace God's love, you are forever changed. When you embrace God's love, you feel differently about yourself, your loved ones, your marriage, and your world. When you embrace God's love, you share His message-and His mercy-with others.

Have you built every aspect of your life-in

including your marriage-upon the firm foundation of God's unwavering love for you and yours? If you have, you built your life on the Rock that cannot be moved.

Father God, You are love. Today and every day, we will return Your love...and we will share it with each other and with the world. We will strive to be loving, faithful servants to You and to Your Son, this day and throughout eternity. Amen and Amen.

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.~Romans 5:8~

Golden Rule for Marriage

The Golden Rule starts at home, but it should never stop thee. And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.~Galatians~

Therefore, whatever you want others to do for you, do also the same for them-this is the Law and the Prophets.~Matthew 7:12~

Obeying the Golden Rule is a proven way to improve any relationship, including your marriage.

Too often a marriage become unbalanced when one partner assumes the role of the taker" while the other partner accepts the role of the "giver. To keep and to have a healthy marriage is o have both is for both of them to become givers.

Father God, help us to become givers and not just taker. Thank You for giving us friends and family members
who practice the Golden Rule. We expect to be treated with kindness, let us be kind. We wish to be loved, let us be loving. We need forgiveness, let us be merciful. Let us like by the Golden Rule, let us express our gratitude to those who offer kindness and generosity to us. Amen and Amen

Did you have Vows that were much like this: A ring is a very precious thing-a token of your faith & love. This ring is made from precious metal. It is a never-ending circle that indicates the continuing love of God-a love that never fails, never presents itself haughtily nor is it puffed up. The love of God & the faith of God causes His power to move in your lives.

Wear these rings as a continual reminder of your faith, a continual reminder of your faith, a continual reminder of the confession of faith you have made to each other & to God.

The Word of God says. "Above all, taking the shield of faith, where with you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked [one]".~Ephesians 6:16~ If any one could break up this union, it would be Satan, so give no place. Give no place! This is a covenant that is ordained by our Holy God, ELOHIM and it is forever.

TO GROOM:
Take this ring, place it on her finger, & say to her:

With this ring, I thee wed. It is a token of my love for you & a token of my faith that I release now, in Jesus' Name.

TO GROOM:
A ring can mean two different things. It can be a never-ending sign of love, or it can be a shackle. I charge you to remember this always: This woman stands by your side, not under your feet. You have the responsibility of being the head of this union. You have spiritual responsibility. I want you to wear this ring in remembrance that she is your helpmate. This ring must never be a shackle of dominance, but always a reminder of faith & love.

TO BRIDE:

I want you to place this on his finger with these things in mind. There is no place in the Word of God that gives people the right to dominate one another. Your vows have stated that you submit to one another in the responsibilities of this life, expecting God & His power to always make the difference. So place this ring on his finger & as you do, say to him:


With this ring, I thee wed. I give it to you as a token of my faith. I believe with all my heart that this is forever. It represents my love & my faith, in the Name of Jesus/Yeshua.~PastorJack@ Warriors For Christ~
