Choosing a life partner for marriage should not be taken without a careful and prayerful consideration, if you want to be and remain happy in it. You can't just jump into it.

Do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires.’ Romans 6:12Self-control is one of the great keys to success in life. And since God’s Word has a lot to say about it, if you ask Him He will help you to cultivate it. What you struggled with when you were young will be different from the things you struggle with when you’re older, but you’ll face temptation in one form or another as long as you live. Self-control is one of the nine fruits of the Spirit listed in the Bible (see Galatians 5:22-23). It calls for bringing every aspect of your life under the mastery of the Holy Spirit. It’s a lifestyle characterized by discipline, not impulse.

Do you want to grow spiritually? Build better relationships? Succeed in your career? Conquer anxiety and find peace? Break a bad habit? Be healed from the emotional wounds of your past? Then meditate on, ponder, think about, practice mentally, and verbalize the Word of God. Instead of living off someone else’s spiritual insight, study God’s Word for yourself and allow the Holy Spirit to bless you with life-transforming insights. Jesus said, ‘The Spirit takes my message and tells it to you’ (John 16:15). And you’ll experience the truth of those words when you personalize the Scripture you’re reading.

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above.’ James 1:17If your vision in life is to become as rich as possible, hoard every penny you make, and indulge your every whim - your vision is not from God. But if your vision is to succeed, use your success to bless others, and fulfil the purposes of God in the earth, your vision is from God.

God can do all this but one thing He cannot do is choosing your mate, because He is too smart to choose your mate for you. God knows that if He chooses your mate, and it didn't work out, you will blame him so He gives you the complete responsibility to choose your mate. That is why the Bible says "he who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtained favor from God." You have to find your mate by yourself. It is also not the responsibility of your parents. But God does help you that's why he gave you a brain with five million cells. He gives you TGE Holy Spirit to guide you, He gave you his words to regulate your decisions, He gave you your Pastors to give you the counsels, He gave you parents, He gave you sense, and He gave you his own anointing to discern spirits. You meet a terrible marriage once you ignore any of this equipment before marriage.

God didn't bless me, so I can backslide, He didn't give me a status so that I can become a statue.

God hides treasure in dirt, so that only those humble enough to dig through it find it.

God is looking for a willing heart. He is searching for few like Esther....who will say if I perish! God is looking for people like Ruth....your God shall be my God and your people shall be my people. With just 3 He can do more than with the crowd. God does not use all to win all.
