The Covenant Understanding of Marriage - Family Life Conference Day 1
"MARRIAGE IS A COVENANT."
If two people successfully work together, it's because of the power of agreement. This can be likened to the power of a covenant.
Understand that marriage is a journey into becoming one, and Jesus's sacrifice for the church mirrors this covenant.
This means 98% of marriage challenges can be solved by the revelation of the concept of covenant in marriage.
Most people treat marriage as a contract instead of a covenant, but there are many differences between the two.
Here are 5️⃣ important points that differentiate a covenant from a contract:
💥 Covenants are intended to be permanent; the only thing that breaks a covenant is death.
💥 There is no individuality in the covenant; both of them become one.
💥 Contracts are cut because you want to secure your needs first; covenants place the other person's needs first.
💥 Covenants require maturity and strength of character; contracts don't.
💥 In marriage, God is your covenant witness.
Marriage is not just about your spouse; it's about the fact that there's a covenant witness who's observing your conduct and every single thing you're doing.
