RESTORATION TODAY
FRIDAY 23RD DECEMBER 2016
BY PASTOR DR. G.O. OLUTOLA JP.

THEME: THE SECRET OF A SUCCESSFUL MARRIAGE.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Galatians 5: 22 ? 23.

Marriage is knowing and loving each other, while at the same time, knowing and loving God. Couples are to maintain their commitment to each other without ever considering divorce as an option. Husband and wife should keep their differences between themselves and work out their issues in the context of the promises they made to each other and to God on their wedding day.

The resources we need for a healthy home are the same as the ones we need for everyday living, love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. These fruits of the Spirit come with maturity; and spiritual maturity comes from our walk with God through Jesus.

Make sure you?re growing in Christ, and He will help you keep your marriage alive and strong. What your marriage needs is Him!

ACTION POINT:
 A wise man said; When the doors on a marriage are shut and bolted and a fire breaks out, all your time and energy goes to putting out the flames.

SCRIPTURES:
1 Corinthians 13: 4 ? 8
Galatians 5: 22 ? 23.

PRAYER POINTS:
1. Lord Jesus, restore Your love into my marriage in the name of Jesus;

2. Heavenly Father, restore Your joy into my marriage in the name of Jesus.

3. Lord Jesus, restore Your peace into my marriage in the name of Jesus.

4. Lord, restore self-control into my marriage in the name of Jesus.
