We are trusting the Lord this morning at this moment to build our hearts to pray and to get some prayer tips for fulfilling our matrimony. Let us shortly pray together. Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you for this morning.

Faithful Father, we again want you, dear Lord, to build in our hearts and make this section of this retreat with you, O Lord, to be a fulfilling one. As you build in our hearts, we pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you, our Father.

Lord, we pray with thanksgiving in Jesus' name. Alright, we will be trusting the Lord to build in our hearts and to bring out prayer tips for us to pray together. As I prepare for this particular section, my heart went back, or the Lord led me back to John chapter 2, where we started from last, or Wednesday, when our daddy, through the Lord, was bringing the opening church to us.

And reading through the passage again, I discovered that every union, every matrimony, every home, every couple, there is a particular purpose in the heart of God for that union to fulfill and to accomplish. In actual fact, when God started the hour, and he wanted to engage his work to be done by a human being that he created, when he first started with Adam, he saw that it was not good. It wasn't satisfying him, and there was need for him to give him a wife.

And then Eve was formed from him that I've been hearing through our meetings. And again, the two of them were engaged in that work to bring to pass the reason why they were created. It wasn't rain initially, because if it rained, the earth would grow, and there was nobody to till it.

God caused it not to rain. But at a particular point in time, they decided to form a man, and the man was created. And then they got the man engaged in the work.

And I'm also saying that even for a woman to be created, what the woman will do also already was on ground. There was a purpose for that woman to come and accomplish, to come and fulfill on earth and in that marriage. And of course, her only thought was to join hands with her husband, again, to do the work that God has given the husband to do.

So we saw that even that first marriage, there was a purpose in the heart of God, that God wanted that home, that union, that couple to accomplish and to fulfill. And of course, we also were told in the course of the meeting that the first thing that devil came to attack was marriage. And I was asking, but why? But I've also come to know that where there is no purpose of God, devil has nothing to do.

But when God has said something, then devil has something to do. So the reason for creating those couple, that first couple, the purpose of it, inside it was where devil came and attacked it and destroyed it. Thank God for God, because God made business with his purpose over everyone that he created.

God again has to look for energy and he tried several other, but eventually he arrived, ascending the third, I mean, God's son now to come and rescue that purpose. Because that purpose seemed to be very crucial in the sight of God. Actually, that was the reason why God created man and woman for him and established that union.

So God sent Jesus to come. And again, it chills my heart that when Christ also came, the first thing we were told in the course of the meeting, I was so happy that last Wednesday, the way that he was bringing that opening time to us, that the first thing again, that Jesus did, the first miracle that Jesus also did was to go straight. The first miracle was to brought solution onto the problem that was threatening to occur in that marriage.

And he brought solution to it. So it chills me, even though the first thing that devil attacked was marriage. Yes, God came again in his remedy and the first thing that a result, a sexual, was marriage as well.

It chills my heart so much. So again, he's telling me and I'm telling everyone of us, excuse me, there is a purpose in the heart of God for your union. There is a counsel in the mind of God for bringing you together.

There is something that God wants to achieve in bringing you together. Actually, before you marry yourself, that purpose has been in place. That purpose has been on ground.

That purpose is already there before you were created at all. So I'm seeing that God coming to us on Wednesday, that opening time, and he's saying that he's beginning a miracle. It's a miracle indeed.

It's a miracle to discover the purpose, to realize that as a purpose, the union ought to accomplish. And to my surprise, I've also come to know that we were asked during the seminars that, what is leading you? What are you serving? Is it money or what else? Of course, for several of us, for many, brother, it is money taking over the place of the purpose of God in our hearts. And the husband is going that way to gather money.

The wife is going that way to gather money. Actually, he didn't even bother to even find out. God, why did you brought us together? What is in your heart for joining me to this man or to that man? And that is what everybody's dropping off.

I want to do this. I want to do that. I want to do that.

I want to buy that. I want to do that. And we are going everywhere.

And the reason for establishing marriage, the reason for bringing you together, you left it unattended to. I'm seeing God challenging our heart. I'm going to cry unto him today.

God, please. I didn't know before. For now, I'm knowing.

Please bail me out. Show me. Let me know.

Let me discover. Show it to us, Father. Please open our eyes to see.

Another thing, again, that seems to be the number one. That is, if anybody married immediately, married immediately, you're already in trouble. Excuse me.

As it happens, also the wives. As it occurs, as it happens, as it happens, and again, that purpose that is taking the place of God, again, is the issue of children. If you see a couple that don't have a child yet, excuse me, nothing enters their heart again.

They are jumping around in every basket. There are many compromises in the midst of looking for children. And I ask myself, excuse me, when God brought Adam, I mean, if though Adam, was he, was he, was he having children in primary assignments? There was one there.

Even though having children is critical. It's like the jarrah of things I don't plan to go and buy. It's jarrah you must have.

Actually, one of the purposes is to be multiplied and to be fruitful. But we should not allow that, again, to take over the other critical reason that if that's one I talk of, many couples don't even bother again to even know. If God is coming to pass any other one law to fulfill, that one, another area that I'm seeing taking the place of this call, of this primary assignment that God created Adam for support, the first husband, and Eve, the second husband.

And I'm seeing God coming to us in the course of this meeting. At the opening chat, he said, the beginning of miracle. At least to discover that there is a purpose that God has brought me to this man's life.

There is a reason for God to have gathered me to this man's life, to have joined us together. There is a purpose. That's the beginning of miracle.

God has been confronting us. There is a purpose for your marriage. There is a purpose for your cancer.

And as we read through that chapter two, of course that verse two particularly, the Bible said, and both Jesus was called. And his disciple was there. Sorry, from verse one.

And the third day, there was a marriage in the Garden of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there, number one. The second, secondly, Jesus, and then the disciple. And I read through other verses.

I'm just saying that actually the first person they mentioned that was called to that wedding was Mary. It was Mary. And I'm seeing Mary in that passage as somebody that God has positioned, positioned for that couple, positioned for that marriage, positioned for that wedding, to link them up to Jesus.

To link them up to Jesus. That will bring, that will settle any difficulties in their home. The difficulty that may even hinder them from feeling the real purpose.

And I saw the role of Mary in that particular passage. That Mary is standing in between the couple and then the Messiah, then the Jesus. And it was the one that was pleading that actually led them to Jesus.

And he called them, excuse me, what is the problem? Whatever he asks you to do, just go and do it. Whatever he wants you to do, just go and do it. I'm seeing the role that Mary played there.

The intermediary. The one that is between the couple and Jesus. That lead the couple to Jesus.

I'm seeing that as a very strong role. That again, I'm seeing that except the owner of the work, we allow him in our home, in our marriages, to do his work. Actually, he only needed us to be positioned as a uniform or as a carnaba, as a temple that he created us for.

To enter into us and do whatever he wants to do. We are going this morning for us to pray. And pray so endlessly that, excuse me, sir, excuse me, ma, couple, there is a purpose for your home to accomplish.

There is an intention in the heart of God for your union. There is something that God wants to fulfill in your home. And I'm trusting that God in his mercy.

We hope effort this morning to pray for a very critical aspect of these tips for prayer uproar for our marriage, our marriages. Is that, I'm seeing the role of Mary here. As somebody that God has positioned to see to it that this marriage does not fall short of fulfilling the purpose of God.

Even this marriage, even though we didn't know what happened to them afterwards, but they are fulfilling a purpose here. They are the ones that God positioned, that God brought together to introduce the first miracle of God in their generation. They fulfilled that purpose and thank God for Mary.

Mary that was there. The Mary that was there to lead them, to direct them, to tailor them to get to dissolve and for the purpose of their life to be able to be accomplished. And I'm seeing that as discipleship, discipleship.

I remember again when Christ came, excuse me, there is no one that God will use. Whether an individual, whether a wife or a husband, whether a couple that God will not first of all make. First of all prepare, first of all worked upon to get rid of the man that we're talking about yesterday, yesterday night.

That had to die, the old man, that had to die in the life of wife, in the life of husband. Until there is somebody that God has to lay hold on to prepare a union, an individual, that person cannot be useful for God. Their home cannot be useful for God.

And as serious as the purpose of what God is bringing to us might look like, brethren, God cannot use us, except we have been prepared. He found a hand to mold our life, to make our life, to shape our life, both at the altar and also in practical terms of it. And I'm also, I remember one couple, brethren, one couple, the couple, the sister Ruth Elimelech and her husband.

They're a couple. They're a couple also, that God had purpose for. They're a couple as well.

And also, I'm also seeing Naomi and her husband as a couple. I don't want to go to, I don't want to go to Naomi and her husband. But I'm looking at Naomi with Ruth, even though the situation as God wrought it.

It was a terrible experience for Ruth, that her husband died before fulfilling the purpose. And also, Naomi died before fulfilling the purpose. One would have said that such a couple, God will not have anything to do with them.

But to show the importance of the purpose of God being fulfilled in a home, in a marriage. I saw God work on a long way to look for how to ravage it. And I saw the role again, that Naomi played in the life of Ruth to finally fulfill the purpose of God for their own union.

And maybe again, for the two couples now. And I'm seeing that there is need for us as couples. Need for us to have someone, to get somebody that God would be using.

And I'm seeing that this one is kind of the life of Christ. That God can use to mold, to shape, to tailor our life, to connect us to the purpose of God for our lives. To use to mold and shape our life to fit into the purpose of God.

There is no body, even here in the practical world, that will do a work. You'll be a professional. You'll be first of all prepared by whoever is employing you.

It's not just normal. How much more God? Even Jesus going to use the disciples. He had to also say, follow me.

And I can make you and fit you into the purpose wherein I have called you, I have created you. So also, as couples have come to have their homes now. To have their union.

To recruit. And to again, to solidify for some as well. I'm seeing God saying, who is God going to use, oh Lord? Who is that woman? Who is that man? Who is that couple? You have already prepared.

You want to connect like this. Who is that? Who is that person? Who is that couple? I want us to go to pray now. To pray now.

To ask the Father, Lord, we are leaving this place. Accept your help. Accept to show up.

Fix us under a Mary. Fix us under a Naomi. Under a couple.

Whoever they are. Whatever they are. Link us up.

My husband and myself. Link me up with them. I want us to pray this morning.

I want us to ask the Father. Let's pray with the Father. Lord, please.

Who are those homes that we have already made? That we have already made? That we make us? Lord, show us. Link us up with them. Link us with them, faithful Father.

We are there. Since we cannot use what you have made us, we are in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Amen. Amen. Amen.
