Couples Night - Part 9

Wash me through and through in the blood of Jesus. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Fill me now with Thy Holy Spirit.

Let the fruit of the Spirit be seen in my life, no matter how trying the circumstances. Spontaneously reacting, especially toward my wife and my husband. Make our marriage beautiful, God, in Jesus Christ's name.

For His sake. Amen. Can we all stand, please, those that are seated.

I asked God for a sermon, flying over here in the airplane. And this is the one He gave me. Thank you for accepting it from God and not from man.

Thank you. God will honor you, your marriage, above what you are asking. Don't doubt that.

He delights to do that, you know. He delights to answer above what you ask. And if you ask Him from your heart, sir, tonight, I guarantee you this God will be obliged in His holiness and integrity to work this out now in your life.

The one wonderful thing about when God meets with you is that to maintain it, you only have to do one thing. To never lose anything God does for you. Never miss God in the morning and the night.

It's the only way you will maintain now what God has done in your heart. Never let anything in your day be more vital or precious to you in life. Any day that you live till the day you die than meeting with God in the morning and the night.

The amount of time you give Him. The way you spend your time with Him. What you've asked God to do tonight, and I know He's done, will never be lost.

I guarantee, I can't guarantee you much, but I guarantee you when God visits the heart, the only reason you can lose ground from that moment and fall back to failure is if you neglect God in the morning and the night. It is impossible to backslide if you never ever miss God in the morning and the night. But now this thing of marriage, the quiet time keeps you intact, sir and lady.

You walk out of that time with God and the Christ-likeness that comes as the result of the time you were with God. Don't neglect God. And do yourself a wonderful honor, sir.

I don't know how long it's been that you've put your arms around your wife and said, I love you. Do that tonight. You have no idea how much a lady needs that.

I'm going to be preaching down in New York from Tuesday through to Sunday. Please pray for me. Some convention they've had for about 80 years, I believe.

I'll be very grateful for your prayers. And by God's grace, I hope to come back to you in November, October, November. I don't know how many of you know dear brother Phil and John and Annette and the others here.

It's the one minister that I so love. What's his name again? What is the dear man's name? Somers. Oh, the old age.

I'm forgetting things. That dear man. Amen.

What a testimony. Wow. You wanted to really be through.

We could start right now with this testimony.
