NAMES

SERIES: Day 6
Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.
-Hebrews 13:4 | NKJV
Names also have an impact on your MARRIAGE LIFE. Many people are struggling in their marriage life that is not any evil spirit worrying them but because of their names. God doesn’t have any name for naming sake. In order to marry the nation called Israel, He had to rename the nation from Jacob to Israel. Your name depicts how far you can go in your marriage life. Because the name Nabal meant someone who was a fool, it affected his marriage life. He was nearly killed by King David if Abigail a wise wife hadn’t intervene. You can be a very good husband or wife but because the name of your other partner is not right, you will always have massive conflicting issues in your marriage.
Check the meaning of your name your spouse is having and you will know why he or she is behaving like that in your marriage. What is so dangerous is that, the names of husbands are the names that wives will bear in the marriage. So if the name of your husband doesn’t make a better meaning, it will affect your marriage life. There were some people whose behaviour was right before marriage but after it, they behave strangely. They were very faithful to God and His work but after marriage they can no longer serve God. If you joke with marriage, you can end up in the lake of fire, so don’t play with the meaning of your name and spouse that will have lasting impact on your marriage life.
Some names are not compatible with other names and this can affect such people’s marriage life. So don’t follow just breast and hips, height and six packs to lead you into your marriage. Wait on God to lead you to the right partner whose name and yours will be compatible for a successful marriage. The name Adam and Eve were compatible for marriage and that was why their marriage sustained even after the fall. There will be many struggles in marriage, but if the marriage is from God, because He has made it rightly so by the right combination of names, the marriage will sustain. God hates divorce and marriage is not a contract that you can enter into it and terminate any time.
Before the marriage, get it right and stop experimenting with what you call possible suitors. You can’t know someone well through dating and courtship. There are certain names that attract the opposite sex a lot and such people cannot stay with one partner. If you are a fornicator before marriage, it is likely you are going to be an adulterer after marriage. You can’t marry thinking you can change your partner. Polygamous marriage too is not accepted by God and if you feel the urge to marry more than one, your name can be an influencing factor. Certain names have good starting but bad ending. They start marriage well, but they can’t end it and they have to divorce.

Lift up prayers for the activation of the marital impact that your name has and the grace to sustain you in your marriage in the name of Jesus Christ.

Whether you endure or enjoy your marriage is also dependent on the impact of what your name means
