Will You Join Hands With Us?

Will You Join Hands With Us? Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. Revelation 19:7.
These days there is a debate going on around the world about sexuality and where men are allowed to get married.  God designed sexual expression to unite a man and a woman in marriage and to represent the union of Christ and His Bride, The Church.
Now, more than ever, the Church must be clear on understanding and proclaiming that truth, with boldness and grace.
For decades now, we've watched many prominent people and even mainline denominations discuss and argue about what the Bible says about marriage and sexuality, to the point where some now embrace and celebrate same-sex marriage.
Even though some in the Church are faltering, Marriage Restoration Network Uganda remains dedicated to teaching the true word of God and affirming God's design for marriage and sexuality. We're committed to teaching and equipping this generation and the next about God's sacred plan for marriage and family. Yet we can't do it alone, we need all of you who think marriage is between a man and woman to join us in this fight by helping us reach many places. Remember what the bible says in Ecclesiastes 4:12 “And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” If you stand with us, we can accomplish much and the name of the Lord will be glorified.

Married Couples Should Always Think About.

Something married couples to think about
GOD DESIGNED MARRIAGE.
That means that He knows best how it should operate. His Word gives us the principles we need for satisfying marriages. Since God designed marriage, it takes three to make a good marriage: God, the man, and the woman. For a Christian to marry an unbeliever is not only to disobey God; it is to enter marriage lacking something essential. Marriage has been described as a triangle with God at the top: the closer each partner moves to God, the closer they move toward each other. The further each moves from God, the further they move from each other. As soon as Adam and Eve disobeyed God, they experienced alienation from each other and Adam began blaming Eve for his problems (3:7, 12). Broken marriages always involve at least one partner moving away from God. So the starting place in having a marriage according to God’s design is genuine conversion and a daily walk with God.

Marriage Was Created For Relationships.

Something married couples should think about as they work about their relationships with their spouses;
When you read Genesis 1 & 2, the words of 2:18 hit abruptly: “It is not good for the man to be alone.” Throughout chapter one, God surveys His work and pronounces it good (1:10, 12, 18, 21, 25, 31). This is the first time God says that something in His creation is not good: “It is not good for the man to be alone.”

Think about it: Here’s a sinless man, in perfect fellowship with God, in a perfect environment. What more could you want? Isn’t that enough? Not according to God! God’s evaluation was that the man needed a human companion to correspond to him. in this God designed marriage to meet the human need for companionship. So every couple Should respect and honor their relationships knowing it is a divine gift from God.
