A Letter from God

Embracing God’s Design for Marriage
Breaking the cycle of divorce requires more than addressing surface-level issues; it involves a deep heart transformation. As Jesus taught in Matthew 19, divorce is often the result ofhardness of heart—a condition that resists God’s design for marriage. To break this cycle, believers must seek to cultivate soft hearts that are aligned with God’s will.

By seeking God first, practicing forgiveness, cultivating humility, and committing to
reconciliation, couples can prevent the breakdown of their marriages and experience the
fullness of God’s intended blessings for their relationship. When both spouses are willing to
humble themselves before God and one another, the cycle of divorce can be broken, and
their marriage can become a reflection of God’s love, grace, and faithfulness.

In the end, marriage is a divine institution that mirrors God’s relationship with His people. Byembracing God’s design and allowing Him to soften our hearts, we can overcome the
challenges that lead to divorce and build marriages that honor Him and thrive according to
His purpose.

Merriam-Webster defines BREAK TROUGH as an offensive thrust that penetrates and carries beyond a defensive line in warfare; an act or instance of breaking through an obstacle; a sudden advance especially in knowledge or technique; a person's first notable success.

This definition sounds like something that was accomplished for us over 2000 years ago, in Christ. Christ broke through (penetrated) the very gates of hell and brought, and bought, us back to safety and away from the war zone. We are no longer waiting for this to be done, it has already been done. We are safe, there are no more obstacles, and Christ removed them ALL. We are no longer victims, but victors. In the Scriptures, “And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power” (King James Version Colossians 2:10). Everything we need we ALREADY have.

A few weeks back brother George Cumella Jr introduced me to a man named Leif Hetland. In this video, Leif stated that “everything in the kingdom is to be received” …Dah! God hath (absolutely) happily given to us “all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ” (Ephesians 1:3). In paraphrasing Leif, maybe we should ask God how to receive ALL that He has given to us. This statement should cause us to STOP in our very tracks and consider our conversations with our Father. In paraphrasing Leif again, he said instead of asking God to bless what we are doing (our ideas, our plans, our whatever) maybe we should come into alignment with God's plan and and receive what God is blessing.

To say that we are waiting on a breakthrough indicates that we are waiting for something that has not happened… which contradicts everything that God is. God withholds NOTHING from us. He gave and He constantly gives to us. Allow me to be silly for a moment if God never did another thing for us, hasn’t he done enough? Thank God, that He is not limited to my silliness.

God brought us from death unto life, and then He gave us a seat in His kingdom at His right hand. We REIGN in life. Romans 5:17 “For if by one man's offence, death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)”

We are IN the kingdom not outside of it.
I have to watch the things I say, and the things I allow in my heart. I have to guard my heart with ALL diligence. Even though a word or statement may sound innocence, they can be very subtle. Even a little word like “breakthrough” can cause me to take my eyes off of everything that I ALREADY have, and then I do not see everything that has “freely” been given to me. Even though it is before my face. Sounds familiar?
My heart felt inspired to share…

The Stewardship of Marriage
Introduction Session...

Stewardship is a way of living that recognizes everything we have is a gift from God. It is managing God's blessings, God's ways, for God's glory. The Bible tells us that God owns everything, and we are His stewards or managers. God commands us to be stewards over everything He blesses us with.

Stewardship of relationships is the careful management of the relationships that God entrusts to us, according to his purpose and will. It means to apply our God-given resources to the best of our ability, for his glory, and to grow and maximize love. It also means to be responsible and accountable for how we treat others, especially those closest to us, and to seek their preparation for God’s use in the Kingdom. Everyone

Every Argument begins with an accusation, where someone is accused of wrong. Simply put, an accusation is a word or words formed against someone. In our U.S. courts, the only reason a person stands as a defendant is that an accusation has been made against them, where they are accused of doing something not right. For this reason (an accusation was made against us, we were accused of doing something wrong), Jesus became our defense attorney.

A defense attorney defends the accused. He or she will advocate and protect their client’s interests and rights. Strong says a defense advocate (defense attorney) is someone who is summoned, called to one’s side and especially to one’s aid, and believe me, we needed all the help we could get.

The Stewardship of Marriage

God’s word tutors us in being faithful; it instructs us how to live a godly life positioned in faithfulness. According to Scripture, faithfulness is a requirement of a steward.

1 Corinthians 4:1-2 King James Version (KJV)
Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.
Moreover, it is required in stewards, that a man/woman (a person) be found faithful.

The Amplified Bible (AMP) translates the second verse this way,
Moreover, it is [essentially] required of stewards that a man should be found faithful [proving himself worthy of trust.]
The Passion Translation renders the second verse as,
The most important quality of one entrusted with such secrets is that they are faithful and trustworthy.

The Strong’s Greek Lexicon says a steward must be found faithful (trusty, proven) G3623. The Oxford Languages Dictionary defines the word trusty as someone who has served for a long time and is regarded as reliable or faithful. We might be more familiar with this when we hear it used when referring to a prisoner who has been given special privileges based on good behavior. This person, after being put to the test (examined or investigated) has been proven to be faithful. Another example I can use is the work that I do. I contract with the State, where my work involves working with babies. Before I am awarded a contract, I must submit to an exhaustive background check, to prove that I can be trusted.
Therefore, the prerequisite of being a steward is that this person is found (after being searched or investigated) faithful. This person must prove themselves to be reliable, after which they are afforded extra privileges because of their faithfulness.

Some Arguments Are Just Not Worth Winning, regardless of who is right or wrong.
Often, I have said to my spouse, ‘I love you too much, I do not have to win this argument.”
Having the ability to let things go (slide) is probably one of your best assets in marriage.
