Proverbs21:9 It’s better to live alone in the corner of an attic than with a quarrelsome wife in a lovely home. NLT

Before I got married, I learnt a lot from the ministry of Bishop David Oyedepo. I think it is wise we learn from men and women whose lives are producing result. He emphasized on reading books on marriage and studying the book of Proverbs Chapter 4-7 to understand more about the immoral woman and the kind of woman that a man shouldn't marry.

So many times, I read the book of proverbs especially those chapters for weeks. Dear brothers, no matter how spiritual or beautiful a lady is, if she has tendencies for being quarrelsome, don't marry her, also if a man is a fighter, don't marry him. Forget about seeing her/him in a vision; a life that is not Christ-like is not worth uniting with in a sacred institution like marriage.

There are certain characters that can hardly be hidden in people if we pay attention to them. We've read about husbands killing wives and vice versa. It is better to live on the rooftop than to sleep on the same bed with a quarrelsome spouse. If you start receiving slaps in courtship, you should know the future spell doom for you.

It is better to be single trusting God to be married rightly than to be married praying to God to solve marital crisis.

Action point

I shall not make mistake in the choice of whom to marry In Jesus name. Amen
